'''GLORY DAY ~That Shining Day~''' (Japanese: '''GLORY DAY 〜輝くその日〜''' ''GLORY DAY ~Kagayaku Sono Hi~'') is the fifth Japanese ending theme of ''[[Pokémon the Series: Ruby and Sapphire]]''. It debuted in [[AG099]], replacing [[Smile]]. A second cut with different lyrics debuted in [[AG109]]. It was replaced by [[Pokémon Counting Song]] in [[AG135]]. It returned in [[AG150]] with a different animation. It was later replaced by [[I Won't Lose! ~Haruka's Theme~]] in [[AG173]].

At the time of its introduction, the animation for this song contained the most complex animation seen in any Pokémon ending sequence: it features animated images on top of a moving sky background. Included are scenes of all the current major characters, their Pokémon, and all of {{Ash}}'s past Pokémon. The new animation (used from [[AG150]] to [[AG172]]) featured {{Ash}} and {{AP|Pikachu}} walking on a side of the screen as clips from the current episode were being played on the left side.

The POWER MIX, most likely the version used for the television ending, is only slightly different from the original mix. It features an organ at the beginning and brass instead of synthesizer during the final bridge.

 

==Ending animation==

Clips of memories appear against the blue sky, in this order: {{AP|Pidgeot}}, {{AP|Butterfree}}, and {{AP|Heracross}} fly in the air; {{AP|Squirtle}} and {{AP|Bulbasaur}} on the plain, with {{AP|Tauros}} running in the background; {{AP|Cyndaquil}} and a dancing {{AP|Totodile}} on {{AP|Lapras}}'s back, swimming with {{AP|Kingler}}; {{AP|Bayleef}} smells the flowers, then looks at {{AP|Phanpy}}, {{AP|Snorlax}}, and {{AP|Muk}}; {{Ash}} holds a {{i|Poké Ball}}; {{an|May}} in her "May's expedition" stance; [[Max]] with illuminated glasses, then stands in his apology stance; {{an|Brock}} holds up a ladle and a spoon; {{AP|Pikachu}} makes impressions of {{AP|Torkoal}}, {{AP|Snorlax}}, and {{AP|Bulbasaur}}.

 

A shot of Ash and {{ashfr}} follows.

May's Pokémon appear with her. Then, Ash's Pokémon appear with him, and {{AP|Snorunt/Glalie|Glalie}} bounces in front of them. Brock and Max are shown with their own Pokémon, and {{TP|Brock|Ludicolo}} starts dancing in front of them. {{TRT}} then appears on the screen, all in the balloon, except [[Jessie]], who is holding a rose.

 

More clips follow: Jessie, first dresses as a maid, then as a nurse with {{TP|Jessie|Dustox}}, then as a cheerleader with {{TP|Jessie|Seviper}}, then as a sailor; [[James]], first standing on a cliff, then in a {{p|Moltres}} costume, then holding a rose in his mouth and winks; then in his farmer costume; {{MTR}}, {{TP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}}, and {{TP|James|Chimecho}}, disguised as May, Max, and [[Caroline]], respectively; {{an|Professor Oak}}, {{Tracey}}, and {{Delia}} poses; the first four shots from the first few clips; and all of the gang's Pokémon standing together.

 

Ash and his friends walk at sunset.
