This is the opening theme to the Raikou TV Special that aired in Japan.  If you didn't know better, you'd think the special was a whole spin-off series because of the various images shown during the song.  Images such as that of a young Kenta with his Hinoarashi staring up at awe at the red-haired Gold/Silver rival, and of Kenta fighting with his starter pokemon in each of its evolutionary phases.  As for the song itself--it's not the best Pocket Monsters has to offer.  The singer has a really annoyingly-high voice, and it just screeches during the song's chorus.  Oh well.

Ah!  Atarashii kaze ni fukaretemo
AH! A new wind is blowing
Kawaranai ore no yume
through my unchanging dream
Sou!  Pokemon MASUTAA!
Yes! Pokemon MASTEEEEEER!


Mada mada sekai wa hiro'itte

We're still learning about this world
Chiheisen ga oshietekureteru yo
With its broadening horizon
Mada mada GOORU wa tooitte
We still have to understand our opposites
Wakaru to gyaku ni moechauze!
In order to reach our goals~!
Mabushikute ookikute moeteru
It's big, dazzling and burning
Ano asahi ni hitori chikau
This sunrise that I make a sungle pledge to
"Zettai makenai!"
"Absolute victory~!"


Ah!  Atarashii dai chi ni tatte mo

AH! A new great place stands before
Kawaranai ore no michi
My unchanging road
Ra ra! Kaze to'isshoni
La la! Together with the wind!
Ah!  Atarashii RAIBARU Arawarete mo
AH! A new rival appears
Kawaranai koukishin
Along with a constant curiousity
Saa!  BATORU shiyou ze!
Alright! Let's battle!
