Hoenn Music
It is argument-ably the best music in all of the V generations...
From growing up on this generation it gives the game a really cool atmosphere. Lots of trumpet use, and it sounds the most unique to me vs the other generation's music http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_k5oZ2lMvR0&playnext=1&list=PL9C480E052B674FD7 Listen, then leave a reply of your opinion. I just want quick answers not discussion or arguments... |
I agree :) For some reason, it's the Hoenn games that have, maybe not the best tunes at all times, but the best composition of instruments, drums and general feeling. Although I really like Sinnoh's music as well, and the 2nd gen Johto music is always in my heart... but playing my Ruby game, running around in route 113 gathering ash and listening to this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wfARFF9S5Jg .... maaah!
Or the mount Pyre intro. It's too awesome: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TEtlhq1PxI4 |
RSE tracks were just the best imo. u___u; Some of my favorite tracks throughout the game were;
THIS THIS AND THIS. But there are so many tracks within the game that I like, it'd be impossible to list them all. Even playing through the music now just gives me a strong nostaglic feeling from the games. |
Certainly agree! All the harmonizing and bass work out very well! I think it has its own stlye that makes it very likeable. They should have more of its kind.
|
I love tracks from all games personally, but RSE sure did have a more unique sound than the others. Mostly cause it was the first time Pokemon had been on the GBA, I assume. But yeah, the trumpet was probably the most notable sound difference when compared to the generations before and after it. RSE is definitely the middle child in many ways, and music is one of them.
Hopefully they keep with it when these games are remade. :) |
No matter when I play those games, the music always sound so nostalgic. As corny as that sounds, I really only have good memories associated with R/S/E, due much in part to the soundtrack.
|
OMG I LOVE LILYCOVE!! <333
Yeah. ^^; Slateport was also great for me. So nostalgic... RSE had wonderful music, when GF makes remakes, I can't wait to hear Remakes of song. They'll probably be better... or worse. |
The battle music with Maxie/Archie: Best. Boss. Music. Ever.
The rest of the tunes were pretty good too, but the crashing cymbals that led up to those boss battles is what really stick out in my mind. |
B/W's soundtrack sounds pretty similar to R/S/E's at times, so, if they were to remake Ruby and Sapphire, the transition would be pretty smooth.
|
This music is certainly some of the best in handheld history... I can't really think of anything that hasn't been said >.< But, Yes. It's great.
|
I like most of the main Pokemon game music tbh. RSE isn't my most favourite though...some tunes were a bit 'eh' to me and it sure had a heavy reliance on trumpets - but certainly overall I liked its music and it has some of my favourite tunes in it as well (like say the rival battle theme).
|
Hoenn's music came a long way in terms of composing. The tunes were much more creative than in previous generations, in my opinion. However, you still can't beat that rich 8-bit tone.
|
I think, out of all the Pokémon games, R/S/E had the best soundtracks hands down.
|
I enjoyed Hoenn's music because of how catchy the tune was.
|
I think the Hoenn soundtrack was best in everything except the wild battle theme. That's the only one I have a problem with but hopefully it sounds better in the remakes.
|
The Soundtrack for me, beat's them all. <: I love Rustboro city's music. :D I can't remember some other's lmao. Dewford cave is another piece of music I like to. :D
|
R/S's soundbank is much better effort for the GBA than Pokémon sounded as a DS game. It was pretty cool at the time, and the compositions are also generally good.
|
I agree I loved the music in this region, it was so vibrant and jubilant or something, and each area's composition is very recognizable and easily identifiable imo :)
At this moment in time, I can't get Brendan's theme out of my head lol :D |
R/S/E easily have the best music to date in my opinion. :D

I never really liked Hoenn's music that much at all. I liked it in the beginning but then after playing it for so long, it kind of got old.
|
Hoenn's music is one of the best in my opinion. It's something really vibrant and I love it. The Littleroot town music theme is still stuck in my head. Ruby was my first Pokemon game, and I'm really fond of the music. Hopefully, the R/S/E remake (supposing that we do get a remake :3) will keep those aspects of the music.
|
Hoenn's music was the best. It was so nostalgic in my opinion. I love all of the music in R/S/E, now I'm gonna listen to one right now xDD

While FireRed/LeafGreen features some awesome music (particularly the Gym Leader/E4 and Champion battle themes, and various route overworld themes), RSE's music is a wonder in the world of videogaming, and I'd even go as far to say that RSE's tracks are top-notch in the music industry as a whole. The trumpet has actually become enjoyable for me. Typically, I dislike the trumpet used in orchestrations (actually, the trumpet(s) used in the anime variants of RSE's Wild Pokemon Battle Theme and Regi Battle Theme seem somewhat subpar compared to the trumpets used in the games), but RSE made the trumpet an amazing instrument to listen to, with the heavy incorporation in dynamic and powerful battle themes. RSE's Weather Trio Battle Theme, while seemingly simple in nature, nicely conveys a sense of "accidental tampering of forces unknown". The techno repetition in the RSE Regi Trio Battle Theme eerily reinforces the sense of a long-lived entity and an encounter with an ancient yet modern force. I love the RSE Champion Theme sense of urgency, and at brief points in the track, it appears evocative of an intense struggle between up-and-coming Pokemon Trainer and top-tier Pokemon Champion. I wandered around Hoenn some weeks ago, astounded by exactly how much musical content was included in the game and the pristine differentiation that was preserved among them. You have your beautifully calm locale themes, to your dynamic and epic battle themes, to your leisurely travel route overworld themes, all complementing each other. Finally, I enjoy how certain parts of RSE's tracks sound like marine-themed tracks (which seems to be due to the prominent use of the trumpet). The title screen theme, the Magma/Aqua Grunt and Boss Themes, the Meteor Falls theme, the Underwater theme, and the Abandoned Ship theme specifically convey the sense of a seafaring voyage or a deepsea journey, which enhances the experience of Sapphire Version, whose mascot is water-themed. The Sky Pillar overworld theme seems to conjure up a feeling of industry and exploration of terrain. Similarly, the VS Wild Pokemon battle theme seems fitting for a child discovering the frequently-hiding animals in a forest. Heck, the RSE Wild Pokemon and Trainer Battle Themes are essentially the battle themes in Pokemon for me. XD In conclusion, RSE's music was amazing, and I really hope that their instrumentation can be enhanced in RS remakes, rather than butchered. :< *Also, here's a remix of a song that didn't actually need remixing, but ends up as awesome nonetheless. Behold, this epic remix of the RSE Champion Battle Theme by thegimpsta: RSE Champion Battle Theme Remix |

I think I can say that the amazing third generation music is what made me a composer and interested in music. I'm not kidding. So. Extremely. Inspiring. The cooltrainer encounter tops it - not to mention all the other themes in the game. <3 |
Well, sinnoh and unova aren't very good in the music department... It's hard for me to say Hoenn's music is better than Kanto though, even though I do love both regions.
