Pokémon Johto is the opening theme song for the English dub of the third season, Pokémon: The Johto Journeys. It was used from Don't Touch That 'dile to The Fortune Hunters. The opening animation is composed of clips from the third Japanese opening, OK!, as well as episode clips from the third season.
The version used in the third series opening was performed by Johto and is featured on the album Totally Pokémon. An alternate version was used in the opening theme to the third Pokémon movie, Spell of the Unown: Entei, and is featured on the movie's soundtrack, Pokémon 3: The Ultimate Soundtrack. This version is different from the TV and Totally Pokémon version in that it has slightly different lyrics and a different artist. It was one of the four ringtones available on the Pokémon Mobile service.
Lyrics
Suicune appears at the end of the opening.
TV version
It's a whole new world we live in (live in)
Pokémon Johto!
Everybody wants to be a Master
Everybody wants to show their skills
Everybody wants to get there faster
Make their way to the top of the hill
Each time you try, gonna get just a little bit better
Each step you climb is one more step up the ladder
It's a whole new world we live in
It's a whole new way to see
It's a whole new place with a brand new attitude
But you still gotta catch 'em all and be the best that you can be
Pokémon Johto!
It's a whole new world we live in (live in)
But you still gotta catch 'em all and be the best that you can be
Pokémon Johto!
Pokémon Johto!
Ending version
Everybody wants to be a Master
Everybody wants to show their skills
Everybody wants to get there faster
Make their way to the top of the hill
It's a whole new world we live in
It's a whole new way to see
It's a whole new place with a brand new attitude
But you still gotta catch 'em all and be the best that you can be
Pokémon Johto!
Pokémon Johto!
Extended version
Pokémon Johto!
Everybody wants to be a Master
Everybody wants to show their skills
Everybody wants to get there faster
Make their way to the top of the hill
Each time you try, gonna get just a little bit better
Each step you climb is one more step up the ladder
It's a whole new world we live in
It's a whole new way to see
It's a whole new place, with a brand new attitude
But you still gotta catch 'em all, and be the best that you can be
Pokémon Johto!
Everybody wants to make a statement
Everybody needs to carve their mark
To stand alone in the victory circle
Stake their claim when the music starts
Give it all you've got! You can be the very best ever
Take your best shot! And what you'll learn will come together
It's a whole new world we live in
It's a whole new way to see
It's a whole new place, with a brand new attitude
But you still gotta catch 'em all, and be the best that you can be
Pokémon Johto!
It's a whole new world we live in (live in, live in, live in)
It's a whole new way to see (to see, to see, to see)
It's a whole new place, with a brand new attitude (attitude, attitude)
But you still gotta catch 'em all, and be the best that you can be
Pokémon Johto!
Yeah!
It's a whole new world we live in
It's a whole new way to see
It's a whole new place, with a brand new attitude
But you still gotta catch 'em all, and be the best that you can be
Pokémon Johto!
Yeah!
Pokémon Johto!
Oh Ho!
Pokémon Johto!
Pokémon Johto!

Trivia
- Although Born to Be a Winner officially became the opening in A Goldenrod Opportunity, the first Kids' WB! airings, as well as the Toonami Jetstream, presentations continued to use Pokémon Johto as the opening up to Type Casting. Additionally, a small portion of the song continued in usage as the eyecatches for the final dub commercial break up until Machoke, Machoke Man!.
- Until the premiere of Stand Tall, over 15 years later, this was the only dub opening theme in which the last word was not "Pokémon".
- This was the first completely digitally animated theme. However, the first digitally animated episode did not come until Here's Lookin' at You, Elekid, 13 episodes before the end of the Johto arc. A portion of Pokémon World was also digitally animated.
- This song is erroneously titled "Pomemon Johto" in the iTunes release of Pokémon X: 10 Years of Pokémon.
- A cut, shortened version of the movie variant of the theme is used as the third season opening in the Finnish dub of the TV series as well, with even the sound effects from the movie still being audible in the background.
