THIS PETITION IS A CALL TO ALL POKEMON TRAINERS!!!

In 2000 and 2001, a musical titled, "Pokémon Live!" was released. It was meant to mirror the Pokémon anime and consisted of all 151 Pokémon. The musical wasn't received well and the plot was said to be quite mediocre. The main plot followed the main heroes of the Pokémon anime, Ash Misty, and Brock, and their search for the Diamond Badge The music was mostly live performances from songs in episodes of the anime.

The plot followed the heroes of the Pokémon anime, Ash Misty, and Brock, and their goal to win a Diamond Badge. In order to obtain this badge, they would have to win a false contest, which was actually a trap, set up by Giovani, the leader of the infamous Team Rocket. In order to "win", a Pokémon trainer would have to defeat Giovani, but the real reason the contest was held was because it was part of one of team rockets nefarious schemes to rule the world. Strangely enough, there's even a romance between Giovani and Ash's mother!

The musical, believe it or not, was actually successful, however, it wasn't very good, and has gone down in history as an obscure piece of Pokémon media. Based on descriptions and testimonials from people who saw the musical in theatres, it sounds very cringy and should be available to every Pokémon fan to enjoy and cringe at!

One theatre critic even said: "Hear Snorlax snore in person!" - Michelle Eric.Green.

The stage production manager, Chris Mitchell, explains that many reasons for the failing of the musical include: bad marketing, poor budget management, and missing the mark for Pokémania, which was the time when Pokémon became a widespread cultural phenomenon across the U.S in 1998 and 1999. The Musical lost over a million dollars too!

Pokémon Live! is so obscure because it's not well known to the majority of Pokémon fans, and there's purposefully not many archives of the musical. There is one, which was uploaded to YouTube by Chris Michell with poor quality. It was shot far away from the stage, has poor visual and lighting quality, and is very hard to hear. He claims he's actually in position several videos of the musical recorded for notes and evaluation, but none of them are as good as the one on YouTube. He also explains that there was a professionally shot, HD recording of the musical meant to be released on DVD, but never was likely due to the musicals overall negative response. Unfortunately, that footage was supposedly lost in the archives of Pokémon HQ, and Cris hasn't been able to find it.
