Pocket Monsters Advanced Generation Opening Theme #2, "Challenger!" Translation by James Hinz (NnT042) *Note 1: These are NOT the official kanji, I would need a lyric book for that. *Note 2: I'm unusually confident in my personal, by-ear transcription this time. The only unsure area is the word "Douro" It could be that, or up to 4 other things, each would give the line a totally different meaning. --- Ikukkyanai yarukkyanai Makekkonai tomaranai saigo made Hitori ja nai samishikunai madamada Wakuwaku bouken owaranai...
