All of Ash's Pokémon including the Pokémon he released are together. All of his Pokémon use Quick Attack. May, Drew and Harley appear. Ash and the gang are running with Ash's Larvitar, a Tyranitar, and Ash's Pidgeot. They walk to the other side of a mountain and they run on the beach with Ash's Lapras in the wave. They fall from the sky, passing through Ash's Butterfree and a Pink Butterfree. Then, the seven Frontier Brains appear and form a line to the top, throwing their Frontier Symbols, followed by Ash's Pokémon battling. Pikachu runs and uses Volt Tackle, causing smoke. Aipom comes out and uses her tail to hit the screen. Scott, Professor Oak, Tracey, Delia Ketchum, Misty and Team Rocket are on cards. A pile of cards falls on Team Rocket.
Ash and the gang are together in the ending scene.

Trivia
- Lapras is not included in the opening two scenes with the rest of Ash's Pokémon.
- Donphan does not fly with the other Pokémon after the title was shown.
- Butterfree has the yellow scarf that Brock gave it.
- Beedrill does not appear, most likely due to it having a new Trainer.
- Primeape, Charizard, and Squirtle do not appear in the section showcasing released Pokémon, most likely due to being in training and still belonging to Ash.
Errors
- When Drew appears, May's Combusken is seen using Flamethrower in the air, though it is a move that it cannot use yet.
- This is the second opening in which May's Combusken is seen using Flamethrower erroneously, the first one being Challenger!!.
