My love is like a red, red pokeball
That’s newly spun in July
My love is like the lure module
That’s sweetly played while the kids lark

So fair are you, my buddy Tepig
So deep in bud am I
And I’ll love still, my sweet
Even when you’re fully evolved

Till you’re fully evolved, my sweet
And the Team Rocket balloons are melted
I will love you, my sweet
while Exeggcutor holds down the gym

And fare thee well, my number one!
As I transfer you to gain one candy!
I will come again, my sweet
Spin this Pokestop ten thousand times.
