    Which OST in Unova is your favorite?

    In my opinion Unova is the region with the best music to date. Great hometown music, the White version Opelucid City theme, the Dragonspiral Tower music, and the famous Route 10 theme are all awesome for me.
     
    There isn't a soundtrack from this generation that I DON'T like. No seriously, I can't actually think of a soundtrack that bugged or bothered me. Maybe due to repetition but no dislike.

    That said, it's very hard to think of a top 3 or 5 of favourite OSTs because they're all so awesome. So, apart from the first one, this is all in random order:
    1. Rare Wild Battle
    2. Reshiram/Zekorm/Kyurem Battle (& the Awakening theme)
    3. Legendary Pokémon Battle
    4. Humilau & Castelia City Gym
    5. Ending (BW)
    6. Abyssal Ruins
    7. Hoenn Gym Leader (BW2)
    8. Driftveil Drawbridge
    9. Cold Storage
    10. Icirrus City
    11. Reversal Mountain (W2)

    ...This did not became a small list, whoops. Honestly, I should buy the soundtrack to both BW and BW2.

    My favorite Unova VGM would have to be Route 10. That route marked the end of the badge quest, and you were about to be sent off to conquer the much stronger trainers. It's a very nostalgic theme for me now.
     
    Aspertia City, Opelucid city (White), Route 10. All musics are just great. (Except Driftveil city, I didn't want to hear it.) And battle musics are good but I like more town or city musics.
     
    My favorite has got to be the Ghetsis battle theme for Black and White. This is not only my fav part of Unova's music-- its my favorite theme period. In a list including other gems like Cynthia's battle theme + piano, the Aqua/Magma boss theme from Oras, Colress' theme, Iris, Cyrus or the weather trio...Ghetsis would still be my #1.

    It is such dark and unusual, the ancient-feel to drumbeats, the variying tempos and volume, austere chorus. It drives home the sense of how powerful Ghetsis is, filling me with dread as he approaches. Fun fact: His name Ghetsis is a romanization of G and C# the same notes used on the kettledrum to compose his battle theme. I think that is so awesome!

    I like it after one listen... but more than once it gets grating on the ears lol the music appears in USUM for Unova legendaries and soft resetting has totally turned me off this song lol the high keys kinda seem out of place in it I dunno.
     
    This is a very hard question. Some of my favs though are,

    Victory before your eyes
    Battle Zekrom, Reshiram and Kyurem (there's a difference you know)
    Battle Cheren!
    Battle Elite Four!
    DragonSpiral tower
    Refrain
    Ending
    Title screen OST

    BW2:
    Battle Gym Leader
    Victory before your eyes
    Apertia City
    Battle Colress!
    Battle Team Plasma!
    Battle Hugh!
    Unwavering emotions
    Battle N!
    Title screen OST
    some of the PWT remixes

    Iris' champion theme. That, or the theme that plays on Route 15.

    Depends on my mood.

    Oh yes the title screens!! Everyone - sit and listen to the full title screen sequence. Absolutely the best of all the games. Unova just gets SO theatrical and it sounds really really amazing to start a game on :)

    Is it cliché to say I love every song? Everything is so unique and beautiful!

    Yes it is, but nothing wrong with that. I like the Unova soundtrack a lot too and I'm glad you can enjoy Mistralton city's theme more than me.
     
    I love the music that plays in N's Castle. The orchestra sounds so beautiful and it reminds me of something you would hear from a Final Fantasy game.

    Me too! :) N's castle bridge though (the theme that plays for 30 seconds) I find is 10x better and way more emotive. Imo only though!
     
    There's a lot of music I like in the Unova games but my top 3 are:

    1. Unova Elite Four theme - I really like the intensity of this theme. It gives a great sense of occasion and is one of very few game music I listen to when not playing. It's an odd thing to note but even the E4s Pokemon cries seem to go with the music. Particularly Shauntel's Chandelure and Caitlin's Gothitelle.
    2. PWT Final round theme - The grand sounding music sets the occasion well again but the joyous theme can be a little jarring when you are about to lose.
    3. Gym Leader Final Pokemon theme - The amped up and faster Tempo gives a sense of you being so close to victory...Or so far if you are facing Drayden's Haxorus.

    Honourable Mentions - Iris' Champion theme, Mistralton City theme
