A/N This is something I just cooked up out of nowhere.
Disclaimer: I do not own Pokemon :shocked gasp, even though I do not actually mention them in this.
BTW-is it true 4kids don't own Pokemon anymore? I have heard much on the subject but I can't be sure.

There are a thousand different paths to take,
A thousand to explore,
Footsteps in the sand you make,
As you walk along the shore.
There are many different ways to go
About your duty good,
Most of the time you do the things
That all good trainers should.
Yet what about the other side?
Those dressed in white or black?
Those dressed in blue or magma red?
Who on the law have turned their backs?
They were trainers once, you know,
As noble as you are now,
But to have the courage to leave that behind?
Maybe you ask me how.
The reason why is complicated
They've had hard roads to walk.
But it satisfies them now
To hear about themselves in talk.
People discuss them far and wide,
From Kanto to Orre,
It gives them pleasure, as they eavesdrop,
For what you have to say.
You may have thought you've beaten them,
But they won't go away,
Until they convince one more,
From their road to stray.
There are a thousand different paths to take,
I hope you understand,
Just think about on which side of the line
You will one day stand.
Maybe you'll join the noble ranks
Of champions far and wide,
But maybe you will have strayed,
To the other, shadowy side...
