This is the opening theme to the fourth Pocket Monsters movie, Celebi A Timeless Encounter. This version of the song is arranged by CHOKKAKU (Shimada Nao), a man who has arranged songs for a number of prominent Japanese pop groups such as Arashi, SMAP, and AKB48. Mezase Pokemon Master 2001 is notable for excluding the parenthetical phrases found in the original version of the song.
Translation
The goal of the
following translation is to present the meaning of the song in a
competent, coherent way. It is not meant to be an English version
of the song that can be sung along with the melody.
Gotta Catch a Pokemon!
Whether they're in a fire or in the water or in the grass or in a forest
Or in earth or in the clouds or in that girl's skirt
Even though it's going to be really really really really difficult,
I will definitely catch 'em.
Gotta Catch a Pokemon!
To Masara Town I say "sayonara, bye-bye."
As I leave on a journey with that one over there
Whether I win or lose with the techniques I've worked on,
I'll go on to the next town adding friends along the way
At all times and at any time, we'll always get along just fine
Even though there's no guarantee of that sort of thing
At any time and at all times the pokemon are the ones
Who are living life to its fullest.
Whether they're in a fire or in the water or in the grass or in a forest
Or in earth or in the clouds or in that girl's skirt
Even though it's going to be really really really really difficult,
I will definitely catch 'em.
Gotta Catch a Pokemon!
We're tired from our battles, so "oyasumi, goodnight."
As I close my eyelids, I'm revived
The flame inside is burning and the wind is fluttering
And the sounds of our battle cries are thunderous.
According to an old expression,
"Yesterday's opponents are today's friends,"
Today's friends are also tomorrow's friends
Forever and ever.
Ah, I wish I could be a Pokemon Master
I want to be one, no, I have to be one
I'll definitely be one someday~!
My dreams will become a reality someday
Someone once sung to me.
Your dream will come true
The way a bud blooms into a flower.
At all times and at any time, we'll always get along just fine
Even though there's no guarantee of that sort of thing
At any time and at all times the pokemon are the ones
Who are living life to its fullest.
Ah, I wish I could be a Pokemon Master
I want to be one, no, I have to be one
I'll definitely be one someday~!
Ah, I wish I could be a Pokemon Master
