Shalour City...
 
The music that plays in Shalour City sounds Japanese, but, it also sounds Celtic? Is it one or the other? I think Shalour City is based off of Brittany in France, I'm not sure what culture Shalour's music is...

Hahaha! I guess our French members can help you with that! ;)
I don't think it sounds Japanese tho, it sounds mythical and felt legend-like.

Shalour City's music sounds like very traditional French Music. But then again I could be wrong. I don't spend a lot of time in France.

Shalour City...
 
I can hear some Kabuki theater influence, but it's probably meant to be Celtic-styled given its real-world analog in France.

the new bike music reminds me of the ending to tome

Does anybody love the Snowbelle City music?
It's so soft and has a myterious, cold feeling to it. I think it really suits the city's appearance.

What do you mean unexpected?

he probably means that he didn't expect it to sound like that, based on how the previous leader themes sounded, and was expecting a similarity, which this theme most certainly does not have. xD

i personally like it, it's my favorite leader theme so far. when i heard it the first time, i was like "this doesn't sound like something I'd hear in a gym." it took me by surprise due to what i expected of Pokemon music, but it grew on me. it, along with the elite 4 and champion theme, are among my favorite tracks in the game. i like the direction the composers took here with the music of the game.

OmegaRuby and AlphaSapphire November 6th, 2013 12:37 PM

I like it, it's very upbeat, and almost E4 like music.

Quinn November 6th, 2013 5:41 PM

oddly it reminds me of final fantasy advent children.

Thief November 6th, 2013 6:27 PM

I love the Gym Leader, Champion and Legendary music.

Anistar and Snowbelle remind me of Pokémon Mystery Dungeon so I adore those soundtracks. <3

braixen November 6th, 2013 6:43 PM

my favorite track would have to be sycamore's theme; i just really enjoy music that sounds like that i guess

i would have have to say that the elite four battle music was my second favorite.

Deivii November 6th, 2013 6:55 PM

My favorite one is definitely: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CF7rJNwIcGQ

Also, Snowbelle City reminds me of Kingdom Hearts, lol.

This song is a song unique to Pokémon. Never has a soundtrack in Pokémon hit me like this, never has a soundtrack in Pokémon intrigued me like this.
It's simply amazing.

thepsynergist November 6th, 2013 11:27 PM

I like several tracks in this game, however, I don't like most of them. The elite 4 theme really hits me, but a lot of the other battle themes seem strange... The rival themes okay, but I can say I miss Go Ichinose's battle theme style. Apparently, Go Ichinose didn't make the music for this game, which explains a lot. A lot of the route themes are nice, albiet heavily french inspired.

Really? It reminds of Got to Get to it, not saying it's a rip off, it just gives a similar sad feeling... :'(

I felt that this generation's music was lacklustre compared to the other ones. It certainly wasn't bad, I still liked it, but it can no way compete with the other gens. I loved the bike theme (only second to BW) and the gym leader theme, but the surf theme was god-awful. A lot of the city themes were forgettable as well.

By the way, there's this part in Snowbelle City's track that sounds very much like a part in N's Farewell. Somewhere towards the end of the loop.

Colress Machine November 7th, 2013 5:38 AM

I really like the Flare Boss' battle theme. They're just so much fun!!!! But the track that blew me away is the legendary theme. omf I lost my mind when I heard that theme. DEFINITELY my favorite legend theme ever.

She_Delphox November 7th, 2013 5:47 AM

I really seem to like the Victory Road music in this game! When I first entered Victory Road I was like; whoah nice music! Gets you even more pumped for the battles ahead of you somehow xD

Also happen to like the music when you Surf (in most gens), it's always so soothing~^_^

XanMan November 7th, 2013 5:50 AM

The music in the 6th gen surprised me, it's so different then the others. I read an article saying the creators spent much time in France so they could capture the esscense of it and put it into the game. I don't know if they did or not, never been to France, but they succeeded in making the game have a totally new feel..The music as a whole reminded me of Megaman, Zelda, and Phantasy Online ep. 1. I love it! My favorite tracks are when you, go into those little tunnels to get into a new route? Y'know, the ones that have theose women behind the counter in each one? And the remix of the old battle music from the 1st gen.

Eruption November 7th, 2013 9:06 AM

I don't pay too much attention to the OST, I just hum them when I'm in whichever route/battle/whatever that they play. In that respect, Gen 6 has been just as 'hummable' as all other gen music.

The one specific track I'd like to point out though is the 'Gate theme' that plays between routes. It's the most relaxing track I think I've heard in a game, I could listen to it for hours.

WAIT A SECOND. Lysandre's theme was awesome okay? Lumiose city theme is memorable because of the girl.

~Tentacruel~ November 9th, 2013 9:48 PM

I gotta say, like most people here, most of this gens music is rather forgettable. I really don't have the songs staying in my head as it was with gen 1 to 3 music. Gotta say, I don't remember any songs from gen 4 and 5 either.

I do have to say I really like Prof. Sycamores theme and I absolutely love the Kalos Power Plant/Pokéball Factory theme song. The only gen 6 songs I want to listen to even when I'm not playing.

I don't know about you guys, but I really like most of the music this generation. Some of my favorites include Shalour City's theme, Professor Sycamore's theme, Snowbelle City's theme, the Gym Leader battle music, Team Flare's battle theme, and Lysandre's battle theme.
I also really like the Elite Four battle theme, though I think it sounds kinda similar to the one in Black and White. Anyone else agree on this?

Zymbolik November 11th, 2013 9:27 PM

lol pokemon i love pokemon music its awsome classic and arcadie i think thats a word but yeah i love it!!!
