Song: Tangerine Dream - Movements of a Visionary URL to a place where you can hear the song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I9GgKswG2M8Why do you think this song suits Zubat? Its whispering, echoing quality suggests caverns and wings and confusion in dark places; the vibrating electronic notes are ripples of sonar, and its repetitive phrases are circling wingbeats from many wings.

Song: "Bat Country" by Avenged Sevenfold URL to a place where you can hear the song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YsZy3I6coloWhy do you think this song suits Zubat?Besides the obvious... >o> I completely see Zubat as being wildly determined to show Team Rocket that he can be useful, which is difficult as a low-level Pokemon like himself. The lyrics also give the feeling of confusion and disillusionment which I imagine would be the products of his attacks, like Confuse Ray. <3

Song: "Supersonic" by Oasis. (I think that's the name. =<) URL to a place where you can hear the song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p29MG7wn4F8Why do you think this song suits Zubat? The title is called Supersonic and that's what I think it Zubat's best move. It's also a bats best skill. They can hear supersonic waves. :3

Song: Whisper--Evanescence URL to a place where you can hear the song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ej8oTQuyl4Why do you think this song suits Zubat? The music itself (and background vocals) has a dark and kind of scary sound which reminds me of bats (also fits Zubat since there's always one in Team Rocket and they tend to be evil XDD). Also the lead singer has a pretty high range which reminded me of echolocation.

Song: Sound of Silence by Simon and Garfunkel URL to a place where you can hear the song: http://www.videoplayer.hu/videos/play/59140or if the better version should fail: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FaSFzp6IDgwWhy do you think this song suits Zubat?The song is concerned with a culture's need for 'sound,' or communication. Within the culture's need for this exchange, there is a parallel in zubat's own need for sound as part of his survival, in the reverberation of echo sonar. The controlling of sound can be used for good and bad, an idea that zubat is well acquainted with, having attacks such as 'supersonic.' In reference his lack of sight, the song shows that there there are gaudy, superficial things ("neon gods") that can appear wonderful or wise, but are actually a deception fed by visual cues. Zubat, being blind, acts as the one who can see through the deception ("Fools," said I, "You do not know. Silence like a cancer grows. etc"). Even the clarity of the 'vision' itself even comes directly from a dream "planted in my brain." Also, there is the killer first line: "Hello darkness, my old friend." Lyrics Hello darkness, my old friend
I've come to talk with you again
Because a vision softly creeping
Left its seeds while I was sleeping
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains
Within the sound of silence.
In restless dreams I walked alone
Narrow streets of cobblestone
'Neath the halo of a street lamp
I turn my collar to the cold and damp
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light
That split the night
And touched the sound of silence.
And in the naked light I saw
Ten thousand people maybe more
People talking without speaking
People hearing without listening
People writing songs that voices never shared
No one dared
Disturb the sound of silence.
"Fools," said I, "you do not know
Silence like a cancer grows
Hear my words that I might teach you
Take my arms that I might reach you,"
But my words like silent raindrops fell
And echoed in the wells of silence.
And the people bowed and prayed
To the neon god they made
And the sign flashed out its warning
In the words that it was forming
And the sign said "The words of the prophets are written on the subway walls
And tenement halls
And whispered in the sound of silence.

Song: Moonlight Sonata by Ludwig van Beethoven URL to a place where you can hear the song: Moonlight SonataWhy do you think this song suits Zubat?Well I'm going off of this because Zubat is base off a real bat. This song dose not have any lyrics and I think zubat would want something clam and relaxing because it dose everything off it's ears because it can not see. I can see it spreading it wings in the night and flying to this to go hunt for prey ((battle pokemon)). I see Zubat as a very smooth moving pokemon as real bats are and this song it smooth and following and connect like bats movement. This song is also dark and errie like like the night where bats basically live in but it also very magnificent and strong like bats. This song also has it strong point too, making sure to be let know just like bats where they make sure to be let know it the light after they are done in the night. I think this is the perfect song for Zubat!

Song: Batty Rap - Robin Williams (Ferngully) URL to a place where you can hear the song: YouTubeWhy do you think this song suits Zubat? In his rap, Batty alludes to some experimentation and we all know Team Rocket is guilty of such things. So whose's to say that this Zubat became a full fledged member of TR without some persuasion?

Song: Catch Me if You Can by Angela Via URL to a place where you can hear the song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HMa6p0Dn5HcWhy do you think this song suits Zubat? I see Zubat as being a tricky little guy who likes to tease and such, and as I try to go after him, this song plays in my head. As I go after him, this song plays and I am continually laughing trying to snatch the sneaky bat. It seems like he is playing a game of 'Catch me if you can' and I am trying with all my might to catch him and make him my own.

Song: Anthem 4Pipe Dreams by Skankfunk URL to a place where you can hear the song: Youtube linkage.Why do you think this song suits Zubat? It has an eerie and dark feel, there aren't any lyrics to relate to but I think the feel of it would fit a dark loving creature like zubat.

The Winners!
There were so many awesome songs, but two of them stood out the most. One was just awesome and the other... The other was hysterical originally and even more amusing when put in the context of Poke!battles. XD
Congrats, Fea Line and JadedTiger22!
For the purpose of number rolling, Fea is odd and Jaded is even.
