    Just a dumb question that i can't seem to find anywhere

    When the rival appears, i want that a different bgm(that will be named "Rival Theme") start to play, how can i do that?
    Like when Blue or Gladion appear in the overwolrd
    Natturaly this can also be used to other important NPCs with their own theme

    Obviously, after the battle, the normal city/route bgm plays again

    this page discusses music in battles.
     
    A combination of the event commands "Memorize BGM/BGS", "Play BGM" and "Restore BGM/BGS" should do the trick. "Memorize BGM/BGS" saves the current BGM/BGS that is Playing, while "Restore BGM/BGS" restores it. Put the first two commands when the Rival approaches you and then play the Rival BGM Theme you want to use. The last command is used when the Rival is leaving.

    Don't forget to put the file in the Audio/BGM folder.
     
    Sir, i clearly said OVERWORLD theme, not in battle
    that's even easier then...its literally in the list of event commands when you make any script in an event. just click it to add it and choose your song that plays.
