OK!
TV OP 3 Artist 松本梨香 Rica Matsumoto Lyrics 戸田昭吾 Akihito Toda Composer たなか　ひろかず Hirokazu Tanaka Arrangement たなか　ひろかず Hirokazu Tanaka
Pikachu Records single Title OK! Catalog no. ZMDP-1062
The producer of this song is 吉田隆 Yoshida Takashi.

OK! is the third Japanese opening theme of the original series. It was also used as the opening theme of Emperor of the Crystal Tower: Lord of the Unknown Tower in a version called OK! 2000. It was used as well in Mewtwo! I am here!: Mewtwo Lives.

It debuted in EP117 and was replaced by the Whiteberry Version of Aim to Be a Pokémon Master in EP192. It has been noted that the OP visuals were used with very little change or rearranging for the third theme song for the English dub, Pokémon Johto.

Trivia

Extended Version

• A longer, creditless, 3:29 version featuring the full OK! song exists. The original opening animation is supplemented by clips from the Johto TV series.
• The sentences before the chorus make reference to the Pokémon Gold and Silver games, although the word "gold" is rendered as "golden".
• Although this song is for the first Johto/Generation II anime season, the lyrics make a reference to a "prideful move" named からげんき Karagenki. This was introduced as an actual move in Generation III (translated as Facade). It is unknown whether this was a simple coincidence or not. However, the song also mentions a move called むこうみず Mukōmizu which isn't a real move. So, it could be assumed that the song is merely saying to do an action as if it was a move.
• This was the first opening theme to fully feature digitally colored animation. (A portion of The Rivals was also digitally colored.) The actual episodes wouldn't follow suit for another 144 episodes, in Here's Lookin' at You, Elekid.
