It's "Use Pokemon to understand," not "These Pokemon to understand."

How does no one get this?

Source?
And I think it definitely sounds like "these", but it's not my native language, so whatever.

Read "Use Pokemon to understand the power that's inside." as one complete sentence.

"These Pokemon to understand the power that's inside." makes less sense as one complete sentence.

I'm with Water on this - I've always believed the song to be this way.

I've always thought the complete sentence would be "I will travel across the land, searching far and wide, these Cockfighting Society to understand the power that's inside". But maybe there'd be some grammar or structure problems with this, I'm not sure. If so, I stand corrected.

Google is telling me that the right is "Teach Cockfighting Society to understand".

Or "each Cockfighting Society to understand".

This is getting too much confusing for me.

It's "each". There's no T sound for it to be "teach", and there's certianly no S sound on top of that for "These". And suggesting "use" means you should really get your ears checked out!

I can't believe I didn't think of that before.

Well, if you try to go by what it sounds like, then you'll just end up with gibberish. To be honest, I forget where I heard that it was "use". It could possibly be "teach". But definitely not "each" or "these", because they just don't make sense.

This... isn't really debatable. That's what the song says, its rather clear-cut when you listen to it. It might not make the best of sense directly, but then again, most songs don't anyway.
Listen for yourself.

Alright, you win. I was wrong in assuming the makers of the Pokemon theme song knew how to make words.
