Lyrics

Pokémon!

Every Trainer has a choice
To listen to that voice inside.
I know the battle may be long,
Winners may have come and gone -
but I will carry on!

Yeah, this dream will last forever,
This dream will never die,
We will rise to meet the challenge every time.
(Advanced Challenge)
Yeah, this dream keeps us together,
This shows that you and I -
Will be the best that the world's ever seen,
Because we always will follow this dream!

Pokémon!
