Favourite opening theme?

I've found a new liking for "Ready Go!" from the Japanese Johto anime, which I think is amazing but I've never seen anyway talk about it.

Give it a listen
For the record I’ve consistently cited Ready Go! as my GOAT Pokémon Anime Openning. It perfectly encapsulates the feelings associated with the separation of the OG trio.

The 1st English Johto opening
High Touch
Unbeatable
XYZ
Volt
 
I like the Indigo League English opening theme, so classic, along with the Quebec theme.

As for the Japanese themes, I don't really have favorites but I heard all the XY&Z themes the most, being my 1st full series I watched.

Despite that I'm watching SM raw or sub, I didn't really hear any of the opening themes since I watched the episodes on YouTube, where the songs are blocked to avoid copyrights, and I wasn't really curious to know how they sounded like.

I've recently grown fond of the second Japanse AG Opening, which I hadn't given much thought to before. I especially like how the song was mid-tempo for the most part unlike the first AG Opening which was much more upbeat and happy.
