Let's Join Hands (Japanese: 手をつなごう Te o Tsunagō) is the sixth ending theme of the Best Wishes series. It debuted as an ending song in BW123, replacing Sakura Go-Round.

Ending Animation

Ash, with Pikachu on his shoulder, makes a phone call to his mother while Mimey stands next to her. Cilan and Pansage sends an e-mail to Chili, who receives it at the Striaton Gym with Pansear standing next to him. Iris and Axew sends a letter to the Elder and Shannon via Wingull. At Nuvema Town, Professor Juniper tells Bianca something, which causes her to freak out and call Burgundy, Georgia and Stephan on the Xtransceiver.

Burgundy, who's studying at a Pokémon Center, doesn't take the news well and gets angry. Stephan takes the news just fine and walks off while Don George and Sawk flex in the background. Georgia hangs up and looks up into the air sadly while her Beartic stares at her. The scene transitions to N extending his hand to a group of Pidove, Cameron walking with his Lucario, Virgil and Eevee flying in a helicopter, and Trip taking pictures while his Serperior sits next to him. Trip looks to the camera and takes a picture, which transitions to various screenshots of BW001 to BW122 and ends with a picture of Ash, Iris, and Cilan with their on hand Pokémon.

Jessie, James, and Team Rocket are seen with TRDelibird ([[{{{2}}} (move)|{{{2}}}]]), who gives them blueprints for a Basculin submarine from a message from Dr. Zager on a tablet. On a beach, Scraggy trips on the ground, but is held up by Pikachu and Axew. On top of a tree, Pansage and Snivy hand apples to Excadrill and Pignite while a stuffed full Oshawott sleeps and Emolga greedily eats apples in the background. In a city, Crustle and Stunfisk can't get up some stairs, so Charizard and Dragonite help by lifting them off the ground.

Ash and Iris begin holding hands, and are soon followed by Cilan. The camera pans along various main characters and rivals from throughout the anime's run with their Pokémon standing next to them. Inside a circle sits an Eevee and its eight evolutions which is surrounded by Ash, who holds hands with his his friends and family in a giant circle. The camera zooms out to a map of Unova, which zooms out even further to show the entire planet from space. From space, several Poké Balls fly across the screen to indicate messages being sent out.

Lyrics

TV Size

Japanese English だれのせいでもないけど　きみは道でころんで そのままそこに寝転び　青い空を見上げた ほほをつたう涙の　きらめき飾りじゃない 生きてることのよろこび　今忘れちゃいけない 膝をついて　起き上がった きみの背中にしみた 泥だらけの　傷跡の痛みは　エールだ きみと手をつなごう　つらいときはもっと ゼロからはじめよう　ほら　ほら　手をつなごう みんな手をつなごう　つらいときはもっと 力を合わせよう　ほら　ほら　手をつなごう ずっと　ずっと　手をつなごう It's nobody's fault when you fall down the road Just lie down and look at the blue sky The tear flowing down your cheek is not a glimmering decoration Do not forget the joy of life today Got on your knees and stood up Your back is stained The pain of the mud-covered scar yells You and I join hands, even more in painful times Let's start from zero. Look, look, let's join hands Everyone join hands, even more in painful times Let's share our strength. Look, look, let's join hands Let's join hands all the way

Errors
