ユウキリンリン ゲンキハツラツ
キョウミシンシン イキヨウヨウ
ポケナビ持って 準備完了!!
センテヒッショウ ユダンタイテキ
ヤルキマンマン イキトウゴウ

はるか彼方 海のむこうの
ミナモシティに しずむ夕日よ
ダブルバトルで 燃える明日
マッハ自転車 飛ばして進もう!!

WAKU WAKU したいよ
ぼくらの夢は 決して眠らない
新しい街で ト・キ・メ・ク仲間

キョウミシンシン イキヨウヨウ!!
Full of courage, full of energy
So interesting, so triumphant
With the PokéNavi, we're ready to go!!
Sure of win if I go first, unpreparedness is one's worst enemy
Willingness, mutual understanding

Far away, beyond the sea
The setting sun in Minamo City
A Double Battle burns tomorrow
Advancing faster with Mach Bike!!

I want to be excited
Our dreams won't sleep
In a new town, flourishing friends
We'll search for them

Full of courage, full of energy
So interesting, so triumphant!!

I want to be excited
Our dreams won't sleep
In a new town, flourishing friends
We'll search for them

Everywhere, anytime, a wonderful idea,
Side splittingly hilarious, peace and harmony
Always, anytime, everyone's smiling
Plenty to spare, great talents mature late,
Playing it by ear, original intentions

It won't all go well
If everything goes easy, it's boring
Little by little I evolve
So I can meet a me that's different than yesterday

I want my heart to pound
And continue on a new journey
The moment shines like a jewel
So I'll search for it

It won't all go well
If everything goes easy, it's boring
Close your eyes and feel the wind
I'm sure that it's not good to rush things

I want to be excited
Our dreams won't sleep
In a new town, flourishing friends
We'll search for them

Full of courage, full of energy
So interesting, so triumphant!!
