Lyric Archive

Do you want to impress people at anime conventions by singing Japanese Pokemon songs on karaoke night? Then you'll need lyrics.

The lyrics are written in romanji, meaning within the 26-letter Roman alphabet. Foreign words (like English words) are capitalized and a little explanation of what the word really is is given below the lyrics (i.e. DORAMA=Drama). I can make no guarantee that the words are spaced out accordingly. Japanese people do not put spaces between their words to seperate them, so it is done mentally. However, if you aren't fluent in the language (like me) then it is difficult to correctly seperate the words when romanizing lyrics. I've done my best with a) my existing knowledge of Japanese vocabulary and b) the way the words are said in the song, but I'm sure I've made some mistakes.

Check out my CD Guide so you'll know which CD to buy to hear these great songs!

A little symbol beside a song means that it's the TV edit of that particular song. Otherwise, assume it's the full CD version.

Song titles with have translations.

Pocket Monsters was not created by me. It was created by Satoshi Tajiri and the crew at TV-Tokyo. Pokemon is (c) Game Freak, Nintendo, 4Kids Productions, Hasbro, Bandai, and a ton of other companies. When you have a popular anime like Pokemon, lots of people own it so it's impossible to list every company who owns a piece of Pokemon.
