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

Sheep June 24th, 2012 12:01 PM

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.

PlatinumDude June 24th, 2012 4:42 PM

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.

Sakura Rain June 24th, 2012 8:04 PM

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

Primary Spectrum June 24th, 2012 11:03 PM

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:

Why mess with perfection? It was already the best theme in BW, so why do anything with it?
Also, just heard this today. I AM IN LOVE <3 Go Iris! It reminds me so much of Deoxys, which is by far the best theme ever. But at the same time it was fitting for her and the stage that you battle her on (space). So upbeat, yet so serious. Makes me cry with joy. OKAY NOT REALLY
Spoiler:

Also, here is another song they did an amazing job remixing. It was already one of my faves, and I'm excited that they re-vamped it.

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.

Sakura Rain June 25th, 2012 2:55 PM

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?

OmegaRuby and AlphaSapphire June 26th, 2012 6:26 PM

I just heard the official rival theme and I <3 it. It's an a definite improvement from Cheren and Bianca's themes imo.

kLSDFJSDLKHGSDLIFH:IEWOJGDS:KL. I TOOK THEM OFF FOR ONE SECOND ONLY I SWEAR. THEY ARE NOW FIRMLY AFFIXED TO MY EYES ONCE AGAIN.

It's the other way around with me, Elesa's is weird and Roxie's is awesome. I think it's hilarious that they're just screaming "KOFFING" over and over. Elesa's is quickly growing on me though omg.

PlatinumDude June 27th, 2012 7:19 AM

Words can't describe how epic Akuroma's theme is. It really suits him, since he's a researcher.

I also like the remixes of the past gym leader and champion themes, especially Hoenn's and Kanto's. They really take me back to the times when I battled the Kanto and Hoenn leaders and E4 in R/S/E/FR/LG.

bwburke94 June 27th, 2012 9:05 AM

Am I the only one that doesn't like D-O-G-A-R-S?

Ho-Oh June 27th, 2012 9:33 AM

Yeah I dislike Homika's lmao. Sure she likes Koffing but it's repetitive and not really that nice to listen to :(

So you're telling me that if you were to walk past a gym and from the outside all you could hear was loud music accompanied by someone shouting "KOFFING! KOFFING!!! KOFFING!!!11!111!!1!11!1", you wouldn't be weirded out? Hahaha

Yeah, she seems to be fond enough of Koffing to name her god damned band after it.

OmegaRuby and AlphaSapphire June 27th, 2012 10:32 AM

I just heard Cheren and Shizui's gym themes, I have to say I like Cheren's theme, it's quite funky. Shizui's sounds like elevator music...

Twilight-kun June 27th, 2012 12:49 PM

Isn't Cheren's Gym theme just the regular gym theme from BW?
because it's a normal-type gym, it should have normal music

haa...

BTW, her English name is Roxie. Confirmed by NOA. Sorry to be a Slowpoke if you know that already.

I am reminded of a certain Let's Player. slkfjslfkjs.

CHEREN HAS A GYM THEME WHAT WHERE I MUST FIND IT

Actually, I would think it was awesome, if a little bit strange sdfkljf. But Koffing of all things really

OmegaRuby and AlphaSapphire June 27th, 2012 2:22 PM

I found it on youtube by typing "Cheren's gym theme". At first I expected it to be his old theme but it wasn't which I'm glad because I like this gym remix one a million times better.

Sakura Rain June 27th, 2012 2:31 PM

This one? lol, four years at PC, yet can't embed a video fml

That's the only one I could find, but holy balls IT'S SO GOOD

cheren ilu <3

pokehearts June 27th, 2012 2:32 PM

I love all the songs, they're amazing! I think this game has the best music of the entire series.

Cosmotone8 June 27th, 2012 3:36 PM

^Then again, it has the music from all the series, lol.
I like Roxie's Gym theme. Though I don't know why people are presuming her band is called Koffing. Just because its in a song it doesn't mean its their band name. I will admit that they say Koffing too much tho.
I also like Burgh's Gym theme. It is so mysterious. It reminds me of PMD a ton. Also some Zelda mixed in their too.

It sounds like burgh has smoked a LOT of pot in the past two years. His gym theme creeps me out a little bit. Anyways, I've listened to every battle theme in this game, and I have to say that B/W2 beats HG/SS for my favorite soundtrack in a pokemon game! If I had to pick favorites they would definitely be the World Tournament final music, Akuroma's battle music, and N's new battle theme. The rest of the soundtrack is amazing as well!

Spoiler:

I read on Serebii that her band's name is Koffing. But even if the band isn't called Koffing, it's still weird enough that that's what she's singing. It is pretty catchy though.

And yeah, I've yet to hear anyone say a bad word about Burgh's gym theme. Definitely one of my favourites.

Edit: ^Ninja'd. Yeah, Burgh does appear to be a massive druggie now. I mentioned earlier in the thread that the psychedelic gym music he has is likely a reference to his passion for art. Personally I think it suits him perfectly.
