Lyrics

TV size

Japanese English 青く　晴れ渡る空に　輝く瞳 さあ　胸を張れ　歩きだせ　夢のはじまり 喜び　悲しみを 明日への力にして 何度でも　何度でも 羽ばたける　強さを信じて 描こう　あの空いっぱいに 七色アーチ ゆっくりと　一歩でも きっと景色は　変わるはずさ さあ　行こう 君の未来へ 虹の向こうへ The eyes sparkling with the cleared-up blue sky Come on, puff up your chest and take a big step forward. It's the beginning of a dream. Turn your joys and sorrows into The power for tomorrow No matter how many times, no matter how many times Just believe that we have the strength to flap up and fly Let's sketch together the seven-colored arch In that great sky Even if we slowly take one step The scenery will indeed change Come on, let's go To your future To the other side of the rainbow

Japanese English 青く　晴れ渡る空に　輝く瞳 さあ　胸を張れ　歩きだせ　夢のはじまり 喜び　悲しみを 明日への力にして 何度でも　何度でも 羽ばたける　強さを信じて 描こう　あの空いっぱいに 七色アーチ 雨上がり　風が運ぶ　草、土の匂い 「生きてる」と　歌っているよ　今日がはじまる 大切な　思い出は 永遠に　笑ってる どこまでも　どこまでも 続く青い空を　見上げて 進もう　誰よりも眩しく 七色アーチ もし君が　つまづいて 挫けそうになった時でも 頑張る　その背中をそっと 誰かが見ている ゆっくりと　一歩でも きっと景色は　変わるはずさ さあ　行こう いっぱいの「希望」と「夢」を抱えて 君の未来へ… 虹の向こうへ The eyes sparkling with the cleared-up blue sky Come on, puff up your chest and take a big step forward. It's the beginning of a dream. Turn your joys and sorrows into The power for tomorrow No matter how many times, no matter how many times Just believe that we have the strength to flap up and fly Let's sketch together the seven-colored arch In that great sky The scent of grass and earth after the wind-blown rain Are singing "I am alive". Today is a new beginning. The precious memories Smiling eternally Wherever you are, wherever you are Look up to the continuously blue sky Let's go forward, more dazzling than anyone The seven-colored arch Even if you have stumbled Even when you are almost crushed Do your best and leave it gently behind your back As someone is watching over us Even if we slowly take one step The scenery will indeed change Come on, let's go Hold on to those dreams and wishes To your future To the other side of the rainbow

Ending animation spoilers

• Ash's Tranquill, Swadloon, and Tepig evolving into Unfezant, Leavanny, and Pignite, respectively.
• Ash's capture of the sunglasses Krokorok.
• Cilan's Dwebble evolving into a Crustle.

Trivia

• Whimsicott, Petilil and Rufflet all appear in this ending, yet none of these Pokémon had made TV episode debut before it was replaced (Whimsicott and Petilil debuted a week after this ending was changed in BW080, while Rufflet wouldn't make it's first appearance in an episode until BW095 which aired after this ending was replaced).
• It is technically impossible for Ash to have all of his Pokémon with him at once, however, the opening has Ash sitting with all of his Unova Pokémon.
• Whimsicott is the only evolved wild Pokémon present.

Errors

Boldore's red spine

• During the close up of shot of Ash's Pokémon, his Boldore has a red spine instead of blue. However, this was corrected in BW064.
