"You said you have a dream... That dream... Make it come true! Wonderful dreams and ideals give you the power to change the world! If anyone can, it’s you! Well, then... Farewell!" - N

“Onward to Our Own Futures” is the triumphant end credits theme to the fifth generation of Pokémon games, Pokémon Black and Pokémon White. As the player captures Pokémon and battles through gyms on their own journey to become the champion, they cross paths with a mysterious anti-hero figure, introduced simply as N. Throughout their travels, the player watches as N slowly realizes that Pokémon and their trainers can coexist peacefully, contrary to what he was manipulated to believe throughout his life. As the bittersweet piano tune “N’s Farewell” plays at the end of the game, N reflects on his experiences alongside the player, acknowledging how he battled uncertainty in his own beliefs and how he came to an understanding that some stories have two sides—that the world is not always as monochrome as it may seem. His farewell precedes a credits theme that beckons the player to press onward, suggesting that their journey is not over and is instead merely beginning.
