On the hype of the most famous game app in the history, so far, Pokemon's original theme singer has taken the light and records the first-ever official video of the song. Millennials might know the song because of Pokemon Go's trend today, but those 90's kids hearts are singing, joining the singer in every beat.

It's like nothing has changed, Jason Paige is still that engaging, sweet, but feisty voice behind the hit TV and game series of all time, Pokemon. After Paige, there has been several, various rendition of this song as the cartoon series went on.

One of the many singers who performed their version of the song is Nathan Sykes. Although Sykes' cover of the song is, how Teen Vogue puts it, romantic, still there would be nothing like the original. Besides, that's what gave the Pokemon series its own identity right from the very start.

After 18 years since it was first sung, Paige decided to record it again and post it on his YouTube channel on Thursday, due to the phenomenon that Pokemon Go is creating today. He actually made the best decision, because the old and new fans were thrilled with it. Clearly, everyone who knows the song is enjoying it and feeling their youth, no matter what age they're in.

For those who didn't know that the song is more than just a first verse and a catchy chorus, watch the video and see for yourself. Who knows, this will help you get inspired in your quest to playing Pokemon Go, as you try to catch them all.
