| <ab>I’m just me
There is no one who can take my place!
The unavoidable time of destiny
I’ll show you everything! (Pikachu!)
Winning or losing is not important
Because we were friends from the beginning
I can’t win all the time
I won’t be disappointed again
Clenching my two fists
Standing up again, like this
Firmly take an oath as you open your eyes in the morning 
I’ll show you myself, growing a little bit at a time

Winning or losing is not important
Because we were friends from the beginning
I can’t win all the time
I won’t be disappointed again
Clenching my two fists I stand up again
I’ll open up the wings in my heart, like this
Forget all the bad memories
Firmly take an oath as you open your eyes in the morning 
That I’ll show myself grow a little bit at a time 
Like the fiery sun that shines upon the smiling tomorrow
Unchanging Pokémon Forever
I’m not you. I’m only racing ahead for myself
I’m proud of my reflection in your eyes (Pikachu!)
I'm racing to the end with all my strength
And trying to smile nicely as well
Often there will be times where I’ll regret this
But I’ll never look back
Shaking off all of yesterday’s work 
I’ll call tomorrow’s dreams with all my might, like this
Forget all the bad memories
Firmly take an oath as you open your eyes in the morning
I’ll show you myself, growing a little bit at a time 
Like the fiery sun that shines upon the smiling tomorrow
