| <ab>Full of courage, full of energy
So interesting, so triumphant
With the PokéNavi, we're ready to go!!
I'm sure of the win if I go first, being unprepared is my worst enemy
Willingness, mutual understanding
Far away, beyond the sea
The setting sun in Minamo City
A Double Battle burns tomorrow
Advancing faster with Mach Bike!!
I want to be excited
Our dreams won't sleep
In a new town, flourishing friends
We'll search for them
Full of courage, full of energy
So interesting, so triumphant!!</ab>

So interesting, so triumphant
With the PokéNavi, we're ready to go!!
I'm sure of the win if I go first, being unprepared is my worst enemy
Willingness, mutual understanding
Far away, beyond the sea
The setting sun in Minamo City
A Double Battle burns tomorrow
Advancing faster with Mach Bike!!
I want to be excited
Our dreams won't sleep
In a new town, flourishing friends
We'll search for them
Everywhere, anytime, a wonderful idea,
Side splittingly hilarious, peace and harmony
Always, anytime, everyone's smiling
Plenty to spare, great talents mature late,
Playing it by ear, original intentions
It won't all go well
If everything goes easy, it's boring
Little by little I evolve
So I can meet a me that's different than yesterday
I want my heart to pound
And continue on a new journey
The moment shines like a jewel
So I'll search for it
It won't all go well
If everything goes easy, it's boring
Close your eyes
Feel the wind
I'm sure that it's not good to rush things
I want to be excited
Our dreams won't sleep
In a new town, flourishing friends
We'll search for them
Full of courage, full of energy
So interesting, so triumphant!!</ab>
