'''Black and White''' is the opening theme song for the English [[dub]] of the fourteenth [[season]], [[S14|Pokémon: Black & White]]. It was used from ''[[BW001|In the Shadow of Zekrom!]]'' to ''[[BW048|Battle for the Underground!]]''. The opening animation is composed of clips from the fourteenth Japanese opening {{so|Best Wishes!}}. A full-length version under the title '''Black and White Theme''' is used as the opening song of [[M14|''White—Victini and Zekrom'' and ''Black—Victini and Reshiram'']]. | |||
==Lyrics== | |||
===TV version=== | |||
<ab>''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!''</ab> | |||
===Movie version=== | |||
<ab>''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!''</ab> | |||

* This is the | * This is the only dub opening to: | ||
* | ** not feature any human characters. | ||
* This is | ** be composed completely in [[wp:Computer-generated imagery|CGI]]. | ||
** 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, {{so|Pokémon World}} is the first dub opening to feature a duet. | |||
* Unlike in {{so|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 [[Pokémon Black and White Versions|game]] release. | |||
* A remixed version of Black and White was played as background music in ''[[BW028|Oshawott's Lost Scalchop!]]'' and ''[[BW039|Reunion Battles In Nimbasa!]]''. An instrumental version was also used in ''[[BW048|Battle for the Underground!]]''. | |||
* According to John Loeffler, he intended to reuse this dub opening for [[S15|Pokémon: BW Rival Destinies]], possibly with a new singer and arrangement, but [[The Pokémon Company International]] wanted a new song for the following season.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vy_TCHECVFs&t=660s Interview with John Loeffler]</ref> | |||
