There are various songs that have been on Pokémon, including (of course) the famous Pokérap, part of which is at the end of every episode. If you string the episodes together, you have the full rap.

This page lists the lyrics to the various songs.


The Opening Song


I want to 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.
Each Pokémon, to understand the power that's inside.

Pokémon! Gotta' catch 'em all!
It's you and me. I know it's my destiny!
Pokémon! Oh! You're my best friend in a world we must defend.

Pokémon! Gotta' catch 'em all!
Our hearts so true: our courage will pull us through.
You teach me, and I'll teach you!
Pokémon! Gotta catch 'em all! Gotta catch 'em all!
Pokémon!


The Pokérap

You'll find two different versions of the Pokérap. The first is the "five day" version, broken down by the days of the weeks. The second is the entire Pokérap, as it appears on the Video tapes.

Both versions are almost the same, but the one that's for the five days of the week has some extra comments, so I included them both.

The "Days of the Week" version.

MONDAY

The Team Rocket Song

In one episode, Team Rocket got bored with their moto and sang a song instead. While the words are great, you really should see the episode, if you haven't yet. The video part makes the song even funnier!


You know us as Team Rocket, and we fight for what is wrong.
We're tired of out motto, so we thought we'd try this song!

Jesse: Jesse!
James: James!

The speed of light, prepare to fight!
Meowth: Meowth, that's right!

James: I am the handsome one!
Jesse: I'm the gorgeous one!

Looking good is lots of fun.
We get some things wrong, but we keep rolling along!
We want to capture Pikachu;
We hope to do it soon,
And when we do,
we'll be the new stars of this cartoon!



Pikachu's Goodbye song

In the episode Pikachu's Goodbye, there was one part where Ash was reflecting on Pikchu and all the things they had been through together. While he was doing this, a song was playing in the background

I close my eyes,
And I can see The day we met;
Just one moment and I knew
You're my best friend.
Do anything for you.

We've gone so far, And done so much,
And I feel Like we're always been together.
Right by my side Through thick and thin;
You're the part of my life I'll always remember.

The time has come. It's for the best, I know it.
Who could've guessed that you and I; Somehow someway, we'd have to say goodbye.

The time has come. It's for the best, I know it.
Who could've guessed that you and I:
Somehow some way, we'd have to say goodbye.
