under the pledging tree
huh
what’s all this
i wonder if something’s going on tonight
they’re getting ready for the festival
hey ramos wow a festival the cool marine
city festival happens each and every
year there’s a story long long ago there
was a trainer and his pokemon
they went on a journey together and
experienced countless adventures so at
the end of their journey they settled
down in this land and lived here happily
ever after
in honor of their lasting friendship the
trainer gave his pokemon a little tree
as a lovely reminder of everything they
had been through together
before long that little tree grew and
grew becoming the largest tree in
coomerine city and that tree is known as
the pledging tree oh that sounds
wonderful hold on a second is that tree
alive today yes that’s it over there
since then it is said if a trainer gives
their pokemon a gift while standing
under that tree the bond between them
will grow even stronger it’s become a
tradition oh that is just so sweet ramos
what time does the festival begin it
begins at sundown a trainer first places
their pokemons present underneath the
pledging tree and then the trainer
offers the gift after the sun goes down
so that’s why they’re all headed toward
the tree with all that stuff sounds like
a lot of fun why don’t we do it too
that’s great it sounds like a lot of fun
i wonder what i should give i want to
give a present too
good i’m on my way to go and decorate
the tree now great i’m so glad you told
us
