It's always hard, When the journey begins. Hard to find your way, Hard to make new friends. But there's nothing you can't do, 'Cause you've got the power inside of you! It's not always black and white, But your heart always knows what's right. It's not about win or lose, it's the path you choose. Let the journey begin, Pokémon!
Movie version
It's always hard, When the journey begins. Hard to find your way; Hard to make amends. But there's nothing you can't do, 'Cause you've got the power inside of you.
It's never easy, To make a choice: To keep things inside, Or raise your voice. But for everyone there comes a time When the light inside begins to shine.
It's not always right or wrong, As long as your spirit's strong. It's not always win or lose, It's the road you choose; The answer's within.
It's not always black and white, But your heart always knows what's right. Let the journey begin—
So many choices; How do we know? So many places; Where do we go? What should I say? What should I do? Still, we're together: me and you!
It's not always right or wrong, As long as your spirit's strong. It's not always win or lose, It's the road you choose; The answer's within.
It's not always black and white, But your heart always knows what's right. Let the journey begin: Pokémon!
There's nothing you can't do, 'Cause you've got the power inside of you. It's not always right or wrong, As long as your spirit's strong. It's not always win or lose, It's the road you choose; The answer's within.
It's not always black and white, but your heart always knows what's right. Let the journey begin: Pokémon!
Not feature a Trainer's Pokémon other than Ash's Pikachu.
This is the first dub opening to feature a duet, though the first Japanese opening to do so was High Touch!.
However, if movie songs are counted, Pokémon World is the first dub opening to feature a duet.
Unlike in Best Wishes!, all of the Pokémon are revealed in full color, not in silhouetted forms. Due to this, numerous Pokémon that were not known to American audiences were leaked before the game release.
Some of the lyrics are different in the corresponding lines of the TV size and full versions. The TV size version says "Hard to make new friends" and "It's not about win or lose, it's the path you choose", when the full version says "Hard to make amends" and "It's not always win or lose, it's the road you choose".
