This is the Moment (also known as The Ultimate Challenge) is a song that was frequently used as an insert in the English dub towards the end of Pokémon the Series: Diamond and Pearl.

The instances of its usage were in A Grand Fight for Winning!, for the final moments of the Contest Battle between Dawn and Zoey in the final round of the Sinnoh Grand Festival; in Working on a Right Move!, for Ash and Conway's match in the Lily of the Valley Conference; and as an instrumental in Battling a Thaw in Relations!, for the Full Battle between Ash and Paul in the quarterfinals of the same event.

Lyrics

Woah!
Woah!
This, this is the moment,
The moment we waited for,
This, the ultimate challenge,
A Champion can't ignore.

Both of us learning,
The skills to play the game.
Each one committed,
To bring honor to our name.
Always been the best of friends,
But fighting now to the bitter end.
And every step along the way,
Has led us to this very day.

This, this is the moment.
The ultimate moment.
Do we have the courage to survive?
This, this is the challenge.
The ultimate challenge.
This is the moment of our lives.

Trivia

This song holds the record for being used as lyrical background music the most number of times in a short span of episodes; a total of three times in 12 episodes.
During all the times it was used, it replaced the original Japanese songs - By Your Side ~Hikari's Theme~, Aim to Be a Pokémon Master 2001, and Type: Wild.
