Synopsis
A silhouette of Spiky-eared Pichu does some kung fu poses in front of a Poké Ball background, who is later revealed. Croagunk, Pikachu, Piplup and Chimchar do a kung fu routine along with Spiky-eared Pichu. A Pikachu-colored Pichu appears and fights Spiky-eared Pichu. Both Pichu have a climbing tree contest and the Shiny Pichu wins. Both Pichu have a Grepa Berry eating contest and Spiky-eared Pichu wins. All Pokémon are running on the grass and both Pichu are racing each other. Spiky-eared Pichu is lost in the mountains and runs to find her friends. Spiky-eared Pichu cries after an unsuccessful search for her friends. Buneary fixes Spiky-eared Pichu's ear so she looks like a normal Pichu and jumps to Pikachu's flower. All Pokémon are riding on orange flowers, while Spiky-eared Pichu's flower is red. All Pokémon are running after Spiky-eared Pichu. A final shot of Croagunk, Chimchar, Pikachu, Spiky-eared Pichu, Piplup and Pikachu-colored Pichu is shown.

Trivia
- This is the first Japanese ending theme aired in an HDTV format.
- This is the second Japanese ending in a row not be updated when a main character's roster of Pokémon on hand changes.
- While the Pichu are racing, they press their cheeks against each other, much like Pikachu did with a Raichu in Pikachu's Vacation.
- The lyrics of the song contain many instances of Shokotanese (lingo coined by Shōko Nakagawa) and some slang popularized by 2channel (which is also often used by Nakagawa).
- The most well-known word of Shokotanese is "giza", which, while representing jaggedness in regular Japanese, indicates emphasis. It originated when Nakagawa mistakenly said "giza" rather than "giga".
