Lyrics

Pokémon!

Every trainer has a choice
To listen to the voice inside.
I know the battle may be long,
Winners may have come and gone -
I will carry on.

Yeah, this dream will last forever,
This dream will never die,
We will rise to meet the challenge every time.
Yeah, this dream keeps us together,
I know that you and I -
We'll be the best that the world's ever seen,
Because we always will follow this dream!

Pokémon!

Dub Edits

• The first scene to appear is the American title screen.
• Instead of the first scene being the camera focusing on Ash and May's tag battle, it was changed to a shortened and sped up version of where Ash is standing on the mountain and Rayquaza flies past them. The original first scene appears there after.
• Ash and May's tag battle is cut short so you can't really see Combusken battling Gardevoir.
• The scene where Ash runs with Charizard, Venusaur, and Blastoise is moved forward.
• The scene with Max and his Pokénav is cut.
• A scene from the anime of Ash throwing a Pokéball is added in.
• The scene where the group is running with all their Pokémon is shortened and the scene where they sit on the hill is sped up.
• The cross scene of May and Drew is cut out and it immediate goes to May dancing with her Beautifly. This is moved from its original position.
• The scene when Max pulls on Brock's ears is moved foward, before Drew and Roselia. This is also moved from its original position.
• The scene with Professor Oak, Tracey, and Delia is cut. However, this scene appears in the English end credits, available on the DVDs.
• The scene with Ash and the waterfall is cut.
• The scene where Ash is carrying his injured Pikachu is cut.
• Many scenes from the anime appear at the end instead and then is followed by the American title.
