Synopsis

Pikachu and the other Pokémon are enjoying themselves at the beach. They are shown brushing their teeth, with Butterfree nearby making a delivery. It changes to them giving each other a bath. Then, they are running on a sunflower field, with Raichu attempting to catch a Butterfree with a net. As Meowth is selling his merchandise in a festival, Marill, and Snubbull are admiring their prizes, while Pikachu and Togepi are eating cotton candy. This is followed by the Pokémon watching the fireworks. It changes to Pikachu and the Water Pokémon swimming underwater. As the sun sets, they are walking happily. It ends with Pikachu, Bulbasaur, Squirtle, and Togepi sleeping in a forest.

Lyrics

Japanese English
まるで えいがの しゅやくのよう
なつのきみたち ピカピカ まぶしくて

イチ ニ サン シー
ニイ ニ タノ シー
サン ニ ウレ シー
ピカピカ マブ シー
ただいま! なつやすみ! まっさいチュウ!

サンタクロース こないけど
おとしだま もらえっこないけれど
おひなさま おしいれだけど
こいのぼり およいでないけれど

でも!!
なつやすみは ちきゅうで いちばんの イベントなんだ
たいようが こどもたちに ピカピカの まほうをかけるのさ

きみが いつかひらく
こころの アルバムに
ことしのなつの かがやきを
セーブしておこう

ピカピカの まっさいチュウ!

みんなで おねがいしてみよう なつのたいように
“ピカピカまほうを とかないで いつまでも”

しゅくだいいっぱい あるけれど
むしさされ ポリポリかゆいけど
どろんこあそび おこられるけど
ときどきおなかを こわすけれど

でも!!
なつやすみは むちゅうで ぼうけんの まいにちなんだ
こどもたちが あちこちを たからじまに かえてしまうのさ

きみが いつかであう
みらいの こどもたちに
ことしのなつの ものがたり
きかせてあげよう

ピカピカの まっさいチュウ!

なつやすみを はつめいした むかしのだれかさん
あなたに“ポケモンノーベルしょう”あげたいんだ

みんなで おねがいしてみよう なつのたいように
“ピカピカまほうを とかないで いつまでも”
Like the lead part of a movie
All of you glitter brightly in the summer

One, two, three, four
Two, two, so fun
Three, two, so happy
Glittering brightly
Right now! In the midst of! Summer vacation!

Santa Claus doesn't come around...
We don't receive otoshidama...
Ohinasama is packed away...
The koinobori aren't swimming...

But!!
Summer vacation is the greatest event on earth
The sun casts a glittering magic on the children

In the photo album in your heart
That you will someday open up
Be sure to save
The radiance of this summer

In the midst of the glittering!

Let's all make a wish to the summer sun:
"Never let the glittering magic melt away"

There's so much homework...
Our bug bites throb and itch...
We get in trouble for playing in the mud...
Sometimes we get upset stomachs...

But!!
During summer vacation we're engrossed in a daily adventure
Children go around making treasure islands everywhere

When you someday meet
The children of the future
Be sure to tell them
The story of this summer

In the midst of the glittering!

To whoever it was, long ago, that invented summer vacation:
We want to give you the "Pokémon Nobel Prize!"

Let's all make a wish to the summer sun:
"Never let the glittering magic melt away"
