Black and White is the fourteenth English theme song in the Pokémon anime series. There are two versions of the theme song. However, the English version is much different from the orignal Japanese version because the music, lyrics, and the way they showed the animation to go with the song are all different. The Japanese's animation (being the country where Pokémon was created) was the original. The Japanese's version is much longer and has a more quick and steady beat. The English's version however, was significantly slower and much softer sounding.
