I love how there's a segment where the lyrics all contain:
• Ash
• Future Generations
• Gen III titles
• Gen IV remake titles
• Gen V titles
All consecutively, well done Juno

[scorpioncox]

I think my favorite part of these lyrics would be how Gold mentions everyone forgetting BF’s achievements before mentioning the gen 3, 4, and 5 games, making the correct assumption that everyone forgot about him. It would make sense given Gold is one of the least referenced characters in Pokémon which is saying something given he’s the main character of the 2nd generation.

[rainfall]

The wiki says that Gold isn’t aggressive towards Bf, since it’s an emotionless husk. So I feel like a logical warning about time was a better option than “I’m spooky, rawr”.

1:16
Good reference to the Celebi using the move "Perish Song" to free itself from battle.
To those who don't know, Perish Song gives all Pokemon on the field a 3 turn countdown until their HP drops to 0. This can be stopped if you switch out into another Pokemon or have one with the ability Soundproof. But since Celebi had no moves & was the only Pokemon in the creepypasta writer's party, it was a forced blackout.

I love how its absolutely filled to the brim with refrences as well as gold/ethan giving his story and warning bf he will share his fate
While at the same time giving off that same creepy vibe that lost silver gave to us oh so long ago

[DearestIvory]

" So you think your story's different, so you hear but will not listen, Know that when your life has fizzled, all that's gold no longer glistens." Best line of the entire song.

[agrocks]

“So you hear but will not listen”
Love that clever reference to how BF doesn’t care a heck about what’s gold saying, He’s just seeing how he is speaking and trying to beat it

[liamplayz]

"In the visions of rubies, sapphires promising the light even brilliant diamonds shining pearls fade away to black and white" Damn, that was a good one

[jamesapplesword]

I love how the thing that makes gold truly terrifying isnt his look or screams, its his representation of the inevitability of catastrophic failure/death no matter who you are

[silversomnia]

“In the visions of the rubies, sapphires, promising the light,

even brilliant diamonds, shining pearls will drain away to black and white…”

Damn. Nice work

[oibruv]

This song really talks about gold’s story on how he died as the champion and the future generations had forgotten him

[BaronB.BlazikenBaronOfBarons]

Let me just say, you were smart to have your FNF song have BF not have lyrics. Just focusing on the opponent greatly improves the quality of those songs and avoids clutter.

[cringenamehere]

"You who battle gods and demons clawing for the gold alone will someday soon face down your doom, your life will fade to monochrome"
words cannot describe how much I LOVE that part

[Doodlebopgamingfortheboyz]

Damn, these lyrics are actually so well put and thought out. The amount of references and detail pertaining to Gold's inevitable fate and how he expresses it to BF is astounding.

[serious_mood_rig]

The lyrics make sense for this story, even after all his achievements, he was forgotten, it felt like he was above everything until suddenly it was all over and now he's here in this void, a husk of his former self

[iswatkz]

Despite having no vocal cords, he spits some serious bars

[gorgeousfreeman]

I actually really like this take on Lost Silver's message. There wasn't some curse, or a possessed cartridge that killed the player.
Just the aftermath of a pokemon trainer's adventure. Someone comes along and beats your record, and your memory soon turns to dust.

[alicon]

This is such an interesting interpretation of the lost silver creepypasta. Most people are just like "dead kid killed people and now he's dead oOoOoOoOoOoOo" but I really like what you did with it!

[ceresthestarspinner]

I was half expecting him to say something like “I had Heart and Soul but they’ve corroded to no longer glitter.”

Still a jam though.

[MLittleBrony]

"He was a young trainer who, despite his efforts in collecting so many badges and attempts at becoming a Pokémon master, was still unable to avoid the inevitable fate of death, and his efforts were eventually forgotten by the next generation." (from the original Lost Silver creepypasta)

it's easy to forget that, behind all the mutilation and ominous Unown spellings, the true horror of Lost Silver is the fear of not leaving behind a legacy, of being completely forgotten once everyone who knew you dies. kudos to Juno for this one, they clearly did their research for these lyrics.
