For the longest time it was custom that whenever a new season of the Pokemon English dub premiered, a new opening theme song came along with it. Then not that long after, the full/extended version of the song was released in the upcoming movie, or 4Kids/TPCi would simply release it in some other form of media.
That was always something that I looked forward to listening to, since the non extended version is only limited to 30 seconds post 4Kids.
But starting with Pokemon Sun & Moon we never got a full version of Under The Alolan Sun, Under The Alolan Moon, or Rise To The Challenge. I know it made no sense for them to release them with the Gen 7 movies since they weren't based in Alola, but I feel like they could've released them separately on another form of media.
Now with Pokemon Journeys I was pleased to hear that TPCi released the full version of Journey Starts Today on their Youtube channel shortly after Journeys premiered. I thought that maybe they'd go back to their old formula, but as of now we have yet to hear a full version of Journey To Your Heart (the current season theme song).
Do you think TPCi ever intended to release the full version of the Alola theme songs? Or do you think they were purposely made at only 30 seconds with no "full version" available?
