Ending animation

Ash's Pokédex floats around before opening up. As it opens the running silhouettes of Ash and Pikachu appear on the side of the screen while Ash and Pikachu themselves appear on the bottom. The screen of the Pokédex displays scenes from several of Ash's adventures as Ash reminisces about his life before becoming a Pokémon trainer. He then reaffirms his dream of becoming a Pokémon Master. The song ends with a picture of Ash and Pikachu on the screen of the Pokédex.

Since I've said good-bye to Pallet Town I guess a bit of time was passed Scrapes, cuts, all my friends Was that bragging a bit? Since they were so popular at the time I ran to buy these sneakers And now I've searched across the world - they can't be found They're worn out; the best! Before you know it, Type: Wild! Little by little, Type: Wild! More and more, Type: Wild! Gonna be strong, Type: Wild! Suitcases, souvenirs and tour guides are unneeded on this trip Because when we met, everyone's warmth Perfectly lead us back home Even though I have memories of a few painful things I don't even notice as they fall out from a hole in backpack Before you know it, Type: Wild! Little by little, Type: Wild! More and more, Type: Wild! Gonna be strong, Type: Wild! Before you know it, Type: Wild! Little by little, Type: Wild! More and more, Type: Wild! Gonna be strong, Type: Wild!

Let's go!

Remembering the days
I trained hard and I played
In our Pallet Town.
Feeling so proud of the friends that I made
Knowing our goals are the same.
The sneakers that I wear,
The coolest of all pair,
Take me everywhere.
You'll only find them in Pallet Town,
Worn out but the best you will find.
They help me get through
My journeys time after time.

Oh, yeah!

And before you know it, Type: Wild!
Gonna reach my goal, Type: Wild!
Keep on going, Type: Wild!
Gonna be strong, Type: Wild!

Yeah! Oh yeah! Pallet Town! Oh yeah!

Traveling by day,
Competing along the way,
Is my destiny.
No guides, no maps to tell me where I'm going,
My heart just leads the way.
The friends I made while traveling
Help me to keep going.
A master is what I'm gonna be.
I'm getting there, but not easily.
But I can't stop
Trying to be what I wanna be.

And before you know it, Type: Wild!
Gonna reach my goal, Type: Wild!
Keep on going, Type: Wild!
Gonna be strong, Type: Wild!

And before you know it, Type: Wild!
Gonna reach my goal, Type: Wild!
I'm gonna keep on going, Type: Wild!
Gonna be strong, Type: Wild!

For I know, this will be reality
So follow all your dreams.
