'''Go Pokémon Go''' is the first actual ending theme for the English dub of the [[Pokémon anime]].  Before Go Pokémon Go, ending themes for the English dub were shortened versions of the opening themes.
{{samename|game developed by Niantic|Pokémon GO}}
'''Pokémon Go!''', also known as '''Go Pokémon Go''', is an English song used in the [[Pokémon anime]]. It was first used as the opening and ending theme for the special ''[[The Mastermind of Mirage Pokémon]]'', and was later used as the ending theme of the English dub of [[S09|Pokémon: Battle Frontier]], which encompasses the episodes from ''[[AG146|Fear Factor Phony]]'' to ''[[AG192|Home is Where the Start Is!]]''.


It had actually debuted as an opening theme in the original airing of the dub of the special [[The Mastermind of Mirage Pokémon|Mastermind of Mirage Pokémon]].  It was later used as the closing theme of the redubbed version of the same special, and a slightly shorter version was used as the closing theme of the English dub of the main series from [[AG146|EP423]] to [[AG191|EP468]].  The song also appears on the [[Pokémon X]] audio CD.
The original airing of the English dub and the Japanese version of ''The Mastermind of Mirage Pokémon'' use the rap portion of the song as both the opening and ending, while the redub changes the opening to use a different part of the song. A shortened version of the rap portion was used for the Battle Frontier ending, making it the only original ending theme to be used in the English dub of the main anime, as ending themes for the English dub otherwise have been shortened or instrumental versions of the opening themes.

If you were looking for the game developed by Niantic, see Pokémon GO.

Pokémon Go!, also known as Go Pokémon Go, is an English song used in the Pokémon anime. It was first used as the opening and ending theme for the special The Mastermind of Mirage Pokémon, and was later used as the ending theme of the English dub of Pokémon: Battle Frontier, which encompasses the episodes from Fear Factor Phony to Home is Where the Start Is!.

The original airing of the English dub and the Japanese version of The Mastermind of Mirage Pokémon use the rap portion of the song as both the opening and ending, while the redub changes the opening to use a different part of the song. A shortened version of the rap portion was used for the Battle Frontier ending, making it the only original ending theme to be used in the English dub of the main anime, as ending themes for the English dub otherwise have been shortened or instrumental versions of the opening themes.

The full version is available on the Pokémon X CD, and was also featured in the music video in the 10th Anniversary Perdue Farms promotion.
