I wanna be the very best
Like no one ever was
To catch them is my real test
To train them is my cause
I will travel across the land
Searching far and wide
Pokemon to understand
The power that's inside
Pokemon! it's you and me
I know it's my destiny,
Pokemon! Oh you're my best friend
In a world we must defend
Pokemon! a heart so true
Our courage will pull us through,
You teach me and I'll teach you,
Pokemon! gotta catch'em all
Every challenge along the way
With courage I will face.
I will battle every day
To claim my rightful place.
Come with me,
The time is right,
There's no better team.
Arm in arm we'll win the fight!
It's always been our dream!

[@PenguiniBepi]

What words can I even say, Jason? Nothing will ever be profound enough to explain what you've done for us all. Perhaps it may sound silly, it's just a song after all, isn't it? I don't believe so. It's truly so much more. A beautiful work of magic and artistry is the closest thing I can articulate. I have to apologize, as words fall short. We can tell you gave your all in this performance, let me speak for so many others when I say how much we appreciate it, your enormous effort to entertain us as children is not wasted on us. My fondest and clearest memories of my childhood is waiting for Pokémon to come on at my grandmothers after school. Had the beginning of the show not had this much power, emotion, and pride in your Work, I truly believe it wouldn't have had the same impact on the MILLIONS perhaps BILLIONS of people you've touched in our hearts. You had an entire generation singing with you. Your role in this show, and our lives is pivotal. I only wish I was able to articulate more clearly how much you've done. Your legacy is forever, we will see to it. I'm positive I speak for many when I say: From the bottom of my heart. Thank you so much. Truly. - Travis

[@JasonPaige]

Thank you Travis. I hear your wonderful words and take them to heart thank you. I do try to invest in everything I do with my heart my soul my passion. Every action deserves our full commitment in life. Even if it's low paying demo for an unknown anime that no one knows about for a random jingle house filled with people just trying to make money for corporate clients. The passion can still come through. But more importantly it's people like you who have invested in the entire Pokemon ecosystem. Expanding your imagination and critical thinking with the games the cards the characters the anime movies and of course the music. It's your investment that has expanded the pokeverse and brought the most value to my life. If not monetarily certainly through these wonderful comments. Thank you for your thoughtful remarks. The very best. JP

[@davidnotonstinnett]

Sending all my love I can manage to a total stranger. So sorry for your loss. People don’t get how formative these kinds of things can be for a man…women too but I’m a man and sharing my perspective, so forgive the exclusionary language…. Society says to be stoic and to give up childish things and childish ways, but some of things are truly who we are. Your husband was a person who valued friendship and teamwork enough to have it tattooed on his skin. Truly a legendary person and the world is worse off without him.

I’m autistic and this is the first hyper fixation I remember having. I knew all of the evolutions, I had a ton of cards, and I brought my pikachu stuffed animal everywhere I went. There is a video somewhere in the depths of KZbin of 8 year old me showing off my Pokémon cards. This show genuinely means a lot to me because it’s the first time I remember feeling pure joy over an interest. I still have some of my Pokémon jewelry I made and bought too. To say this is wonderful would be an understatement, Pokémon was a big part of my childhood and developing as an autistic person. Even now I still have faint memories of me repeating the caterpie evolution while I played with toys. This show is very sentimental to me and this theme song brings back so many times where I wasn’t afraid to be my true self or hide my autism to be a functioning member of society, I could truly be myself without the pressure of others. I hope you guys see this and appreciate how much of an impact this show had not just on my life but so many other peoples lives too.

I remember sitting at home with my dad who had both of his legs amputated. His bed was in the living room, and while my Mom worked, me and my Dad would sit at home and watch pokemon together. He died when I was 6, but pokemon kept me from losing myself. The doctors stopped counting the blood clots in his brain around 20. When he passed, I was devastated, defeated, and hopeless. But then I would remember sitting with him watching pokemon. Jason Paige, you saved me from shutting off the world entirely. It took years for me to finally talk to people and make friends, but now I have friends, and pokemon is still a huge part of my life. I would sing along with the opening and my dad would just smile. Thank you, it sounds silly that a show about 10 year old kids going on an adventure with an electric rat would have such a big impact on my life. I miss my father a lot, but whenever I play pokemon or listen to a song from the soundtrack, those dark times seemed to disappear as light is brought to the center stage. You are amazing, never forget that. You changed lives, and inspired people to become the most powerful nerds in the universe! Seriously, you have changed the lives of thousands of people and from the bottoms of our hearts, thank you.

God, this is the best song from the whole Pokemon series. I'm ready to shed a tear for such wonderful creativity. It's just a pity that there is still no official music video for this song. I'd like to see it. No matter how many remakes and covers are made, the original will always be better. The original conveys exactly those very first and most long-standing emotions that right now simply cannot be found in any new series. There is no such spark that you gave us with the help of this song. I would really like to see the official music video for this magnificent and beautiful song. I am sure that the generation that sang this song with you will sing it again, so that even children will sing and listen to this version. Really just words can not convey

I was born in 1999 and I also grew up with the Pokemon anime. Me and my sister also collected the cards as well, and kept them in a binder I believe. We didn't really play the trading card game, per say. We just really liked admiring the cards themselves. Honestly, the only things I never really tried out in the franchise were the games themselves. Don't get me wrong. I had always heard about them, seen them in stores and even saw commercials on TV in the 2000's. But for some reason or another I just never got around to trying them out for myself. Maybe one day. Gotta catch 'em all!
