^ To the above: It is true, Red has been confirmed to be making an appearance in the Pokemon World Tournament.

Yeah, I found Burgh's gym theme to be calming too. It sounds almost psychedelic in nature (probably a reference to his love for art).

...This is the best game ever. Everyone else go home.

Looked up Burgh's gym theme. didn't listen to it earlier on account of dying over nostalgia It does sound really nice, nice and nature-y. I like!

Listened to Elesa's theme too. What is this, TWEWY? And Skyla's reminds me of LoZ. Homika's is awesome, hope they keep that in the US release.

Aspertia City's theme was my fave.

MY EARS WHYYY

Anyway, I love the remixes of both Blue's battle and Red/Lance's. They are fantastic.

Trying not to spoil any of the other pieces so they remain a surprise.

From that music bit in Jellicent's sig, I could say I adore Shizui's Gym track. Definitely one of my favourite renditions of the Gym theme. It's just so chill and relaxing. Which is really fitting for the Water-type theme of the Gym, and it kind of gives a tropical or beach vibe. :)

I generally love the soundtrack so far, though! Still new to the vocals because my only experience with that would be Ghetsis' Theme from BW but I think I'll manage.

Right!? It's perfect for a Water-type gym!

The soundtrack is pretty amazing. I'm loving all of the themes, actually. I love the new Gym Battle theme, love Ghetsis', love Iris'; they're just all amazing.

Oh god Shizui's. I was all "this is playing in a gym THIS IS THE BEST THING EVER" I love his. Does Cheren not have a gym theme, seeing as he (apparently) fights outdoors?

The new Plasma theme is brilliant, I looooooove it omg. Had a listen to Sinnoh's Gym Leader/Champion theme: SWEET MERCIFUL JESUS TAKE MY MONEY

All the remixed old themes aaaaaaaaa all my criez ;___; I really like Iris' theme; not too intense like Cynthia's but just as amazing in its own way nonetheless. I really want this game.

To be honest though, I'm not too fond of the rival battle music... stopped listening about a minute in since it was a bit boring to me. I'm sure I'll get used to it with how often we'll be battling him, though. XD;

The remixed B/W gym theme was the best, though!! it was already my favorite song and it got even betterrrr.

All of the battle theme remixes took me back to the time when I battled against gym leaders/champions of older games. I loved them. Especially Blue's theme, Lance/Red's theme, and the Kanto/Hoenn/Sinnoh gym themes.

YOU GUYS YOU GUYS I JUST NOW FOUND THE KANTO CHAMPION THEME

OMG

OMFG

/DYING

IT IS PERFECT

this is not an overreaction at all, why do you ask

I like the addition of lyrics to some of the themes. Not full on words, but just a line or two can add immensely while still adhering to tradition Pokemon. I just hope they sound good paired with the game is all

This soundtrack is close to flawless. The flaw is that the Elite Four didn't get an even more epic battle theme. But I love everything I've heard. Especially Roxie's gym. Dogar c:

Woah...Iris's song is epic! It makes me think of falling stars, for some reason....

This is completely random, but whenever I hear any version of the Johto Champ theme, I think of eating ramen. There is an explanation here, however- the day I beat Red on SS, I was interrupted by lunch, which was ramen noodles for some reason.

The revamp of the Hoenn Champion theme is godly. Can't say the same for the Hoenn Gym Leader theme, now that I've taken my nostalgia goggles off. It doesn't feel frantic enough.

Had a re-listen to Elesa's Gym theme. It's starting to grow on me, you guys. Love love love Roxie's Gym theme. (have I said that already? lol)

I haven't taken off my nostalgia goggles since I first heard the themes. And I'm loving every second of it.

Roxie's and Elesa's Gym themes still weird me out a bit. At leasts Elesa's is funny, but Roxie's is just her band spelling out and shouting Koffing. And her band's name is Koffing. Seriously, wat?
