'''Volt''' (Japanese: '''Ｖ''' lit. ''Boruto'') is the first opening song of the {{series|XY}}. It debuted with [[XY001]], replacing ''[[Summerly Slope]]'' of the {{series|Best Wishes}}.

A remixed version, '''[[V (Volt)#Opening animation: Version 2 (XY029 - current)|Mega V]]''' (Japanese: '''メガＶ''' lit. ''Mega Boruto''), was introduced into the credits at [[SS029]], and ultimately replaced the opening song of the series starting from [[XY029]].

When you're supposed to be on your way
Heart's pounding, dangerous!

Someday I'll become proud of myself 
That's what you taught me, so I'll stand up

Once you've packed the power of a dream into your heart
It's certain that someone will call out your name
When the wind laughs through the trees of the green forest 
The yellow flowers open 

Someday, my dream will be fulfilled
Yesterday I shouted it, so I'll go out on my journey

===Trivia===
* During one scene, the main characters are seen standing on a bridge looking at the ''Palais de l'Isle'' in {{wp|Annecy|Annecy, France}}.
[[File:OPJ17 differences.png|thumb|A few notable differences]]
* In a preview shown on ''Pocket Monsters XY: Road to Kalos'', the opening had several differences to the version aired with [[XY001]].
** The camera rises to the sky much faster than in the preview version during the beginning scene.
** Two [[Form differences#Vivillon|Elegant Pattern]] {{p|Vivillon}} are added to the scene where {{p|Swanna}} are flying behind some grapes.
** In the scene where the main characters run across a street, {{an|Serena}}'s body and ponytail are redrawn.
*** Also, a minor coloration error regarding the right strap on {{Ash}}'s backpack is fixed.
** When the main characters are standing in the hills, more hair is added on Ash's head, and his hat is slightly redrawn.
*** During Ash's face shot scene, more grass is added beneath his feet, his nose, eyes and cheek birthmarks are redrawn, and a white stripe is added to the background.
*** During Serena's face shot scene, the image of her face moves across the screen instead of being still, her nose and eyes are redrawn, and colored dots are added to the background.
*** During {{an|Clemont}} and {{an|Bonnie}}'s face shot scene, the images of their heads are slightly relocated, their eyes, noses and backpacks are redrawn, and a blue decoration is added to the background.
*** During the transitions between these face shots, the characters now appear blurred when they move.
** After {{MTR}} falls off {{TRT}}'s balloon, the camera zooms out in the preview version. However, this isn't the case in the final opening.
** When Ash is seen running in a field, sunlight and motion blur effects are added.
*** The scenery and camera angle have changed as well; due to this, Ash is also slightly redrawn during some frames.
** The rocky outcrop appearing before Ash is remodeled, and the shading is changed.
** The [[Gym Leader]]s' order was changed so that it matches the order they are fought in [[Pokémon X and Y]].
** Motion blur is added throughout the battling scene between {{AP|Pikachu}} and {{p|Pangoro}}, along with other animation changes.
*** The scenery is remodeled, the sky being recolored and some trees being relocated.
*** Pikachu is redrawn in some frames, and more motion blur effects are added to him when he is using {{m|Quick Attack}}.
*** When Pikachu hits Pangoro with {{m|Iron Tail}}, the latter is given a yellow coloration during the impacts in the preview version, like if Pikachu was using an [[Electric (type)|Electric]] attack. This is corrected in the final version.
*** Lighting effects are added to Pangoro and the rocks Pikachu hit with {{m|Thunderbolt}}. A shadow is also added to Pangoro.
** During the scene where the protagonists' Pokémon are seen using their moves, the background scenery is less blurry and now features a rocky outcrop in the forest, along with relocated mountains.
*** The mud drops appearing when [[Clemont's Bunnelby]] uses {{m|Dig}} are changed to white flashing dot effects.
*** Ash's nose is given a shadow, which was not fully colored in the preview version.
*** [[Ash's Froakie]] now has a {{m|Water Pulse}} sphere in each of his hands, and he aims the move much closer to the camera.
** The [[Mega Evolution]] logo effects are slightly remodeled.
** When the ground breaks during {{p|Lucario|Mega Lucario}}'s appearance, the camera shakes differently.
** The effects on the {{p|Xerneas}} and {{p|Yveltal}} scene are slightly different.
** The ''Y'' in the {{series|XY}} logo is given a brighter coloration.
** The effects during the final group shot are changed. In the preview version, the group is drawn normally and the art style changes vastly after they pose; while in the final version, the art style is different and is present during the whole scene.

====Errors====
* During the scene with a rainy town, a female {{p|Meowstic}} has the tails of a male Meowstic.
* During the scene when a rocky outcrop appears in front of Ash and the camera shakes, his legs are seen cut off in one frame.
* During Pikachu's battle against a {{p|Honedge}} and a {{p|Pangoro}}, Pikachu used {{m|Quick Attack}} on Honedge and it worked despite {{type|Ghost}} Pokémon being immune to {{type|Normal}} moves.<gallery>
File:OPJ17 error 1.png|Meowstic coloring error
File:OPJ17 error 2.png|Ash's legs error

Dragon, Ghost, Ground, Flying
Poison, Bug, Water, Electric, Rock, Grass, Dark
Ice, Normal, Fire, Fighting
Steel, Psychic, Fairy

Come on, from here on out it's an adventure and there is only light ahead
The sky overflows with a rain of tears but we push through
Come on, use your courage to be better than you were yesterday
Treasure any encounter
Heart's pounding, Challenger!

Someday, my dream will be fulfilled
That's what you have taught me, so I'll use it on my journey

The red ring of a bond spreads far and wide
I'll definitely reach out to everyone with this energy I suddenly feel
This blue planet of ours is shining with hope
The yellow flowers bloom

Dragon, Ghost, Ground, Flying
Poison, Bug, Water, Electric, Rock, Grass, Dark
Ice, Normal, Fire, Fighting
Steel, Psychic, Fairy 

Come on, this adventure continues even through the dark
It's better to shine without hesitation than to flow through
Come on, use your will power to be better than yesterday 
When you're supposed to be on your way
Heart's pounding, dangerous!

Someday I'll become proud of myself 
That's what you taught me, so I'll stand up

Once you've packed the power of a dream into your heart
It's certain that someone will call out your name
When the wind laughs through the trees of the green forest 
The yellow flowers open 

Someday, my dream will be fulfilled
Yesterday I shouted it, so I'll go out on my journey

The red ring of a bond spreads far and wide
I'll definitely reach out to everyone with this energy I suddenly feel
This blue planet of ours is shining with hope
The yellow flowers bloom

Dragon, Ghost, Ground, Flying
Poison, Bug, Water, Electric, Rock, Grass, Dark
Ice, Normal, Fire, Fighting
Steel, Psychic, Fairy 
The yellow flowers open
