Synopsis

May throws a Poké Ball, then is shown in a spotlight running with all her Pokémon before they jump into the air and Ash Ketchum, Ash's Pikachu, Brock, and Max appear. She then twirls around before her Squirtle shoots an Ice Beam that reflects various images of May. In the final image, she winks at the camera before Munchlax breaks the ice with a Focus Punch. Then she and her Pokémon are shown running across a field with mountains in the background.

May stands in another spotlight, this time alone, and colored spotlights move around her. Images of her Beautifly, Skitty, Squirtle, and Bulbasaur flash by. She looks up, apparently determined. Images of her Eevee, Munchlax, and Combusken flash by.

May poses as Combusken uses Fire Spin, Eevee uses Shadow Ball, Munchlax uses Solarbeam, Bulbasaur forms a heart with Vine Whip, and Skitty uses Blizzard. An image of Ash, Pikachu, Brock, and Max pans across the screen, then May is seen eating bowls of ramen as the rest look on in awe.

The final image is May with all her Pokémon. Ash, Pikachu, Brock, Max, Drew, Harley, and Team Rocket are pictured in the background.

Lyrics

Japanese	Romaji	English
STAGE ON! ライトを浴びると スイッチが入る LET'S GO! 自信が半分半 分が不安かも	STAGE ON! RAITO wo abiru to SUICCHI ga hairu LET'S GO! Jishin ga hanbun hanbun wa fuan kamo	STAGE ON! I bask in the light and the switch is set LET'S GO! I'm half confident, half nervous
挫けそうな気持ち 「気合パンチ」入れたら パートナー信じて ファイナルを目指す 輝いた会場に 木魂する手拍子 盛り上がる完成に 確かな手応え感じて	Kujikesō na kimochi "kiai PANCHI" iretara PĀTONĀ shinjite FAINARU wo mezasu Kagayaita kaijō ni kodama suru tebyoshi Moriagaru kansei ni tashika na tegotae kanjite	I feel like giving up, but I use "Focus Punch" I believe in my partner and aim for the finals! In the shinning arena, clapping echoes The cheering grows, and I can feel their reactions
私、負けない! 本気モード前回 絶対諦めはしない きりきりまで 明日みつめて 笑っていたいから 次の一撃で決めたい リボンをゲット! 屹度勝つ!	Watashi, makenai! Honki MŌDO zenkai Zettai akirame wa shinai kirikiri made Ashita mitsumete waratte itai kara Tsugi no ichigeki de kimetai RIBON wo GETTO! kitto katsu!	I won't lose! I'm in full serious mode! I absolutely won't give up until the very end! Because tomorrow, I want to look back and smile I want to decide this with the next hit I'll get the Ribbon! I'm sure I'll win!
優勝決めると 会館が走る* HAPPY! 疲れもあるけど 満たされた気分かも	Yūshō kimeru to kaikan ga hashiru HAPPY! Tsukare mo aru kedo Mitasereta kibun kamo
戦て呉れた 仲間抱きしめて ぎゅっと 悔しい負けかた 癒される時間 新しい風が吹いて バンダナを揺らせた 次に夏大会に向かって心を採らせる	Tatakate kureta nakama dakishimete gyutto Kuyashī makekata iyasareru jikan Atarashī kaze ga fuite BANDANA wo yuraseta Tsugi ni natsu taikai ni mukatte kokoro wo toraseru
私、負けない! 元気モード前回 そうカラーはない夢 何てない筈だから いつか鳴りたい 闘気コーディネーター だからライバルを負けない 自分自信に きっとなる	Watashi, makenai! Genki MŌDO zenkai Sou KARĀ wa nai yume nante nai hazu dakara Itsuka naritai tōki KŌDINĒTĀ Dakara RAIBARU wo makenai jibun jishin ni kitto naru	I won't lose! I'm in full serious mode!
私、負けない! 本気モード前回 絶対諦めはしない きりきりまで いつか鳴りたい 闘気コーディネーター だからライバルを負けない 自分自信に きっとなる	Watashi, makenai!
