Diamond/Pearl/Platinum Music - What's Your Favourite ?
 
(I'm new here, I hope this isn't an off topic thread or anything. If it is, please let me know and I'll get rid.)

So I just turned on my Platinum game for the first time in months, and happened to be in Stark Mountain. The music for this part of the game is SO damn catchy ! That little slap bass part and everything - it's just awesome. I could listen to it all night (yes I really am that sad :P) The Pokemon League music is pretty epic too, actually it scares me a little bit ! But it does it's job.

I'm just wondering if anyone here on PC has a favourite music theme from the 4th gen games and wants let us know about it ? Do you think the music in these games is as catchy as I do ? Or does background music not stand out so much to you ? Does it matter ?

Please tell me your thoughts, thanks ~

The Jubilife, Hearthome and Canalcave (hope i spelled it right) songs always brings me memories.

Have to agree—Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum did have few of the most amazing soundtracks. d: Route 201 theme would have to be one of my favorites. Every time I listen to it, it always makes me feel calm and happy. I could spend hours listening to this song, to be honest; I'd never get bored. Due to the same reason, I like Sandgem Town theme, too, as well as Twinleaf. Other than these three, few of my other favorite tracks are Sunyshore City, Route 205, Hearthome City, Pokémon League, and Route 209.

I liked the Cynthia champ theme, the Dialga/Palkia theme and the Floaroma Town theme.

The route 201 theme brings back a bit of nostalgia, but Eterna City and Jubilife city bring back the most. I played Pokémon Sapphire, Pokémon Black, and Pokémon Black 2, however almost nothing from those games makes me sentimental. I spent a lot of time playing Pokémon Platinum, and the only parts I got stuck on were Eterna City and Jubilife City, which means that I heard their music a lot. I believe Pokémon Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum have the best music.

4th gen had some excellent pieces. I particularly like Cynthia's battle theme, the Giratina battle theme in Platinum, and the Dialga/Palkia battle themes. I like how Cynthia's and Dialga's/Palkia's music seem to flick between upbeat and victorious to dire and dangerous.

There aren't honestly very many pieces in 4th gen that I didn't like though.

The legendary battle music (Giratina, Rotom, Regigigas etc.), Lakes and the Underground music were amongst a few of my faves.

Sheep December 9th, 2013 4:51 PM

Dialga & Palkia's battle theme as well as Cynthia's battle theme. Both of these were absolutely perfect, more so the latter.. made me so anxious during battle. <3

Legendary battle soundtracks, especially for the Lake trio and version mascots, were amazing. Battle Factory and Roulette in Platinum were amazing to chill and listen to!

curiousnathan December 9th, 2013 7:03 PM

DPPt had some amazing sound tracks. I particularly loved the Lake Trio's battle theme as well as Cynthia's battle music. I also enjoyed Stark Mountain, that track was pretty groovy!

I don't know the route, but the one just before Lake Verity and Snowpoint City. I really loved tramping through the snow and listening to that little jingle. ;w; (Route 116?)

Heck yes. The route is annoying as heck, but that is one of my favourite route themes. It doesn't suit it much, but oh well, not going to complain too much. =p

A bunch of the battle themes are nice (legendary, rival, and a bunch of the battle frontier tunes too). Hearthome had a nice tune to it too, and a couple other towns were neat too I suppose.

D/P/Pt held lots of amazing pieces. They all gave the sense and feel of a great adventure, kinda like Hoenn's, since most of the tunes were upbeat and catchy. I liked Route 201, Dialga/Palkia theme, and Route 206, but all of the themes made me love it one way or another. (:

Bulbartle December 15th, 2013 5:43 AM

Nostalgia...Anyways my fav.music is frontier brain's theme & Giratina's theme.Stark mountain & Battle frontier theme were awesome too.

Tsutarja December 15th, 2013 5:54 PM

I really enjoyed the music to Sunnyshore City.. it was very uplifting and very spirited considering how close to the Pokémon League it was.

PhoneHome December 15th, 2013 9:56 PM

The champion music was disappointing.

Negix December 16th, 2013 12:13 AM

Well... I had a lot of favorite soundtracks from the 4th generation but I think Cynthia's theme(before battling her) was pretty amazing. The piano has a lot of power to it that builds up the tension before the battle.

Really? I actually found it rather upbeat and cool; unlike Alder's and Iris' in my opinion.

Diablerie December 19th, 2013 9:50 PM

The Frontier Brain theme from Platinum for me. Always had such a long and difficult time reaching the Brains that the Brain fights themselves were always the most intense parts of the game for me, and this song is appropriately frantic and hectic for those fights.

ChuCkerBeEz December 20th, 2013 3:57 AM

The Cynthia champion battle from Pokemon Platinum music is so awesome.
Also, first time in this thread and already liked it.

Harmonious Fusion December 20th, 2013 10:22 AM

I love the music in the Distortion World.

Kikaito plush December 20th, 2013 10:51 AM

I like the Old cheatue and flower paradise

ObnoxiousOboe January 13th, 2014 3:05 PM

The Cynthia theme hands down!!! Other than that, I like the Legendary music and I love Jubilife's theme.

Alloute January 23rd, 2014 9:11 PM

The Canalave city music and Jubilife city music are some of my favorite songs but I also liked Victory Road's music and Amity Square's music.

Hero of Twilight March 10th, 2014 4:54 PM
