English Pokémon Theme

I wanna be the very best, like no one ever was.
To catch them is my real test, to train them is my cause...
I will travel across the land, searching far and wide,
Each Pokémon to understand, the power that's inside.
Pokemon...gotta catch 'em all!!
It's you and me...
I know it's my destiny
Pokémon...Oh..you're my best friend,
in a world we must defend.
Pokemon...gotta catch 'em all!!
A heart so true--our courage will pull us through!
You teach me and I'll teach you!
Pokémon!
Gotta Catch 'Em All!
Gotta Catch 'Em All!
PO-KE-MON!

Japanese Lyrics (Romaji)
(POKEMON Get daze!)

Tatoe hi no naka, mizu no naka, kusa no naka, mori no naka
Tuchi no naka, kumo no naka, ano ko no skirt no naka (kya- ; scream)

Naka naka naka naka
Naka naka naka naka taihen dakedo
Kanarazu Get daze!
POKEMON Get daze!

Masara Town ni sayonara bye-bye
Oreha koitsu to tabi ni deru (Pikachu!)
Kitaeta waza de kachi makuri
Nakama o fuyashite tugi no machi e

Itsumo itsudemo umaku yuku nante
Hoshou wa doko nimo naikedo (sorya sou ja)
Itsudemo itsumo honki de ikiteru
Koitu tachi ga iru
Tatoe hi no naka, mizu no naka, kusa no naka, mori no naka
Tuchi no naka, kumo no naka, ano ko no skirt no naka (shitukoi!)

Naka naka naka naka
Naka naka naka naka taihen dakedo
Kanarazu Get daze!
POKEMON Get daze!

Tatakai tsukarete oyasumi Good night
Mabuta o tojireba yomigaeru (Pikachu?)
Honou ga moete kaze ga mai
Naki goe todoroku ano battle ga

Kinou no teki wa kyou no tomotte
Furui kotoba ga aru kedo (furui towa nan ja!)
Kyou no tomo wa ashita mo tomodachi
Ah, akogare no POKEMON master ni
Naritai na, naranakucha
Sousa eien ni

Zettai natte yaru

Yume wa itsuka honto ni narutte
Dareka ga utatte itakedo
Tsubomi ga itsuka hana hiraku yo ni
Yume wa kanau mono

Itsumo itsudemo umaku yuku nante
Hoshou wa doko nimo naikedo (sorya sou ja)
Itsudemo itsumo honki de ikiteru

Ah, akogare no POKEMON master ni
Naritai na, naranakucha
Zettai natte yaru
Ah, akogare no POKEMON master ni
Naritai na, naranakucha
Zettai natte yaru

Japanese Pokémon Theme

(Got a Pokémon!)
I'll go through flames,floods, weeds, forests,
The soil, clouds, and under the skirt of the girl (Scream!)
And through here, through there..
And through here, through there..
A long, long road to go..
To get pocket monsters....
Good-bye, my home....
I'm starting with the cute guy (Pikachu!)
Win and win with a trained ability,
Go to a new town with new friends
Success is not guaranteed
(A matter of course)
What's the matter?
You, monsters, always go all out
I'll go through flames, flood, weeds, forests
The soil, clouds, and under the skirt of the girl (Forget it!)
And through here, through there
And through here, through there
A long, long road to go
To get pocket monsters
Tired, I say good night
I Close my eyes and am reminded (Pikachu?)
That through fanned flames and a storm,
Hearing you, monsters,
I battled.
Old days they said Yesterday's enemy is today's ally
But today's ally is an aeon ally,
I wanna be a great pocket-monster trainer!..
..I should be!
I heard someone telling the dreams come true with the sound of music,
...A bud would bloom..
...I would see my dream be true.....

Pikachu's Goodbye

I close my eyes
And I can see
The day we met
Just one moment
And I knew
You’re my best friend
Do anything
For you
We’ve gone so far
And done so much
And I feel
That we’ve always
Been together
Right by my side
I thinking then
You’re the part
Of my life
I’ll always
Remember
The time has come
It’s for the best
I know it
Who could have guess
That you and I
Somehow someday
We have to say
Goodbye
The time has come
It’s for the best
I know it
Who could have guess
That you and I
Somehow someway
We have to say
Goodbye
