gen 4 was my brothers favorite gen and I will never forget me being a kid and going to the top bunk of the bed and watching him play diamond. THANK YOU!!!
Sinnoh.... Just the name of this region warms my heart. Sinnoh and the fourth generation of Pokemon are my favorite, in principle, because I spent many hours playing this game, and the Pokemon of this particular generation became more dear to me, even more dear than Pokemon 1st generation, imo. In general, my story with Sinnoh is quite interesting: My parents often sent me to my grandparents, somewhere in the suburbs, when I was still a child. But here’s the problem. The TV is always occupied by grandparents, who are watching various comedies or detective stories, on the shelves are old, but high-quality books, which were very difficult for little me and all I did was walk, work, take care of the garden of my grandmother, who I adored roses and other flowers and for entertainment I only had my pink Nintendo DS Lite, which was previously used by my aunt and she gave it to me because it was not needed for her. And since, unfortunately, my parents were strict, +also had problems with money I had only one game on hand: Pokemon Platinum. I didn’t even have GBA games and every 3 months I had no option to play one game for three months. But for little me this was enough, I remember the first time I launched the game and the emotions, they cannot be expressed in words, since I had quite a few DVDs with Pokemon and was already somewhat familiar with the franchise, it was just great. When I chose Pokemon ,I always gave the choice to either Chimchar or Piplup. But in most cases I chose Chimchar, because I always liked fire-type Pokemon (Thanks to Charizard) And I didn’t regret the choice at all. The combination of fire and fighting Pokemon was perfect for me. I also remember how I took the names of Pokemon very seriously, because I valued them very much and every time my Pokemon was faint, I felt pain, because I blamed myself. I was not the smartest or most brilliant child, and it’s not surprising why this game was difficult for me at first, I was often inattentive, which is why I spent extra time in seemingly passable places, but the main part was easy for me. But there were moments where I really I didn’t understand anything and the only thing I had was to chat with all the NPCs again and explore old places, since there was no Internet, no guides, I could only rely on myself. And my tactics of interacting with all the NPCs bore fruit and it helped, Even though I spent a lot of time, I especially spent a lot of time on Sinnoh Victory Road and the final story part with Giratina. I remember being stuck at this point and almost ending up with Pokemon Platinum.I remember very well how I ended up in the Pokemon League after 280 hours (I was about 7-8 years old, don’t judge strictly) But I was incredibly proud of myself. After all, I “practically” finished the game, but it was too early to rejoice, I moved on I met Aaron and defeated him. I was so happy, I even jumped for joy, because I lost 4 Pokemon, but I won. I went further and saw Bertha and was in a stupor. "Where is that Nurse?" the question that bothered me. (Yes, it was in this game that I first encountered the Elite Four and naively thought that after each member of the Elite Four there would be a nurse, how naive I was) And in the end, of course, I lost to her. I was confused by the strength of the Elite Four and was amazed by their level difference (I didn’t really like grinding and only my Infernape was about level 54. And the rest are below level 50, level 40+ is used) In the end, I was able to train my Pokemon to level 50+ and it took a lot of time. I decided to buy Full Restores and Revive and was able to defeat the Elite Four ( But I will never forget Lucian's Gallade and Flint's Magmortal ( WHY HE HAS THUNDERBOLT????? ) And finally I met her, Cynthia, my favorite champion and my childhood crush. I, like others, caught Vietnamese flashbacks from her theme, but in fairness, her theme is very good and perfectly conveys her style, character, as well as her theme as a real one The boss is exciting and threatening. Yes, I lost to her quite a few times, her Garchomp is faster than diarrhea, seriously, and when she uses Full Restore it was really a pain, all the efforts seemed to be in vain. But I didn’t give up and gained experience, defeating the elite four over and over again. And at one point, Cynthia’s Garchomp missed Dragon Rush twice in a row and my Gyarados was able to defeat her! I was incredibly happy about this, but in fairness, her other Pokemon were strong, especially Spiritomb, who seemed to have no weaknesses, since at the time of Sinnoh, there was no magic type. And also her Lucario with his speed was a problem. But I was able to defeat her and screamed with joy (Together with my emotionality since childhood, I felt felt like a real champion and practically cried with happiness) But after completing the game, I often walked to my favorite places and eventually got to the Stark Mountain subquest event and was able to defeat Cynthia again, but it was still very difficult and finally I completed Pokemon Platinum and then even Pokedex. And I keep playing again and again, leveling up other Pokemon and just having a good time in Sinnoh. I remember bragging to others my friends and classmated that I know Sinnoh better than my city. With the advent of my own computer, I did not forget about Pokemon Platinum and happily completed this game more than 5 times, remembering the old days, and then I completed FireRed, Leaf Green, Ruby, Pokemon Yellow and other parts. A lot of time has passed since that moment. I grew up and Pokemon still occupy a huge part in my heart. Morning series of Ash's adventures in Johto, Kalos, Unova Pokemon games, arguments with friends about which type is better, which Pokemon is stronger, whichever you would have a team if there was a GYM Leader or part of Elite Four, or even a Champion and also dreams of Pokemon in real life.... This was all part of my childhood and even despite everything I love playing games about Pokemon, rewatch Pokemon and listen to the OST separately. Unfortunately, now everything is far from sweet for me, stress, fear of the future and I love to have fun with Pokemon, because Pokemon is something that can take you back to childhood. An innocent kind world, an eternal journey, no worries,no problem, an ideal world of eternal happiness and harmony, and Pokémon are a great way to take your mind off adult life and remember old times and childhood... Sinnoh is my home,Sinnoh is my life.Thanks auntie for this Nintendo DS Lite and for this unforgettable adventure!
The things you said here..some of them are relatable to me..thank you for making me remember my childhood..it was heartwhelming..thanks a lot my friend!
9:14 is the music you didn’t know you missed until you hear it again. What a time, what a life. We always wonder about who we will become but I wonder if the kid that used to play Pokémon all day long is proud of what I’ve become.
Eterna City man. Takes me back to the times of being in elementary school, finishing up my homework, and then finding the time to play on my DS. The greatest of times, if only we could go back.
i remember i had this song in mind for at least a decade, then i went on a deep nostalgic dive into pokemon song to find it again. One of the best songs in videogames!
Yea, nowadays there's just too much, the new Pokemon have increasingly silly names & looks and everything has become one big anime. Miss the good ol' days. *
Hoenn is adventurous, catastrophic and competitive. Unova is mysterious and both modern and ancestral. But Sinnoh is *serene*, spatial and powerful. Arceus bless you.
If I could ever have a wish granted by a magical being, it would be to get me back to when I was a 10 year old playing Pokemon and having absolutely no other worries on my mind other than what Pokemon to add to my party...
It's so interesting how much this takes me back. I remember playing these games when I was around 7 or 8 years old in my old neighborhood with the other kids... we could just sit next to each other with our DS systems and play our own game all day, talking about it, our newest catch, what gym leader we were battling. Then Black and White came out and we all got them on release day and played nonstop. It was just so simple, playing Pokemon games with childhood friends after school until dinner time. Is it bad that I'm tearing up at the memory? I'm 20 years old now. I'm studying music, and just recently won a position with a professional orchestra, and have been teaching quite a bit as well. I went through a suicidal bit during quarantine. A girl I was dating for two years broke up with me a couple months ago. My parents are old and frankly don't have much time left with them. Life has been good to me, but it's also overwhelming at times. It's so oddly relaxing yet simultaneously emotional to sit here and listen to this, reminiscing of simpler times where the only thing going on in my life was whatever new Pokemon I caught so I could flex on my friends lol. I moved away from that neighborhood when I was about ten years old. I don't hear from those old friends much. I wonder how they're doing...
i can relate to a lot of what you said in your comment. simpler times, when everything wasnt so serious and so overwhelming. ive found myself going back to these nostalgia pokemon music compilations as a calming comforting way of saying that life doesnt need to be as serious as ive been taking it. as someone else said in the replies, im also glad youre still here. ive lost friends and family along the way and am glad to still be here as well, able to reminise and enjoy life even when its difficult to do so :)
The music of DPPt really helped make Sinnoh feel like a real region. Quiet coziness early on, evolving into immense grandure as you complete your journey. I started with Kanto and put the most hours into Hoenn but Sinnoh will always feel like home to me
I won't lie, my childhood was shit but playing platinum really helped me hold it together, even thought i don't remember much of the game. Somehow I still remember the music perfectly. I still have the cartridge, with my 600 hour save file intact. It was my whole introduction to pokemon too. lol
Same to the first part. Most of my childhood memories are just my brother and I playing Pokemon together. I guess I blacked everything else out. Oh well, I mostly just remember the good stuff anyway. I was a dumb kid so I just restarted my save files whenever I got bored/tired of them.
Listening to this music fills me with a profound melancholic sadness. There will never be a pokemon generation quite like Gen 4 ever again, but man am I glad I was there to experience it when I was a kid.
Life is not like it was when we were kids, but it doesn’t mean is not beautiful anymore… a lot of good things are ahead of us waiting, lets keep going guys for us, for who we were and for who we will be :)
Will never forget sharing gen 4 with my older brother. He got Diamond, I got Pearl. He never really got into Pokemon like me, so I'm sure it's just a distant memory for him. But I'll never forget those times.
Man, same here. My older brother and I always got the opposite versions, except Platinum. I believe it was the first game we each had, but I was too young to remember much. To this day, I can't remember if my first game was Platinum or Black, but I love both so much. Some of my best memories from my childhood are just my brother and I battling each other or playing together, mostly in Heart Gold and Soul Silver
Same here omg! I always was the more "gaming-fascinated" sibling. I always hoped my brother also had fun playing Pearl (I had Diamond, later Plat). Now, he's working in banking & finance, never really played any games (he's 26 as well) since then. Meanwhile I love looking back at this time. The only time, where my brother and I were playing the SAME game. What I know now is, that this time was a once-in-a-lifetime thing... I don't think that he has ever looked back at this time of life. I don't think it holds as much of importance to him, as it did and does for me :(
26:30 man... Ill never forget this day from my childhood. I was supposed to have a football game this day, but my mom told me it got cancelled due to snow. 5 min later me drinking happily my chocolate drink, I enter Route 216 and hear this banger...
ah,,, now you're reminding me how i used to walk to my boyfriend's house trudging through the snow with this song on, and then we went and played platinum together and made it to this exact part. i was showing them for the first time >:D
Pokemon diamond, pearl, and platinum. These games are ingrained within my memory and never fail to bring back good memories of wonder and excitement. I think what really adds the silver lining is the music. It is just perfect, in my opinion. A lot of the tracks and themes in the game are quite melancholy, I would literally just go to the lake next to the hometown to listen to the music. Tell me I have rose-tinted glasses on, sure, but I believe the reason they failed to remaster these games is because newer games just fail to capture that same ambience and mysterious qualities diamond pearl and platinum have. There is much less hand holding -- I spent 2 weeks stuck after beating the fourth gym in diamond because I had no idea that you had to go back to hearthome city. Call it bad game-design (maybe a little), call my child brain tiny (very much so) but these quirks are what made these games so memorable. Thank you for all the good times Sinnoh
Reading these comments is moving me to tears. And the Professor Rowan theme will always make my heart soar. No matter how many other things I find myself getting deeply deeply into, I always come back to the Pokémon gen 3 and gen 4 games. Those ten cartridges feel like home.
for me this is the most nostalgic music of the universe. recall a lot of good moments and even bad moments, but feels so warm in the canva of the memories
Whenever i listen to these tracks, its probably the closest thing to a time machine. Takes me back to 2007 2008 as a 6th and 7th grader....gen 4 is my favorite when it comes to the soundtracks. I just find it crazy how certain sounds and tracks takes me back to a place 17 years ago. Thanks for this. So many gems gen 4.
Currently sobbing I never knew how much job Heart home City (Night) brought me until rn. I was doing my college math hw (ew) and the tune came into my head. I hunted yt violently for this song and it brought so much joy to hear again for the first time in what may very well be 14 years. (,: thank you
Reviewing for my midterm exams, currently, I am a 3rd yr Medical Technologist student and the last time I listened to this was when I was still in highschool and also when I was grade 4 in elementary level. Nothing but just pure golden memories and emotions the Pokemon company has given me.
In my opinion the best tunes will always be in Sinnoh, it was the first Pokemon game I have ever played, there's something about it that makes me very happy every time I listen it to
I’ve played gold, sapphire, leaf green, but man when I played diamond with my brother for the first time it was amazing. We took our ds everywhere we went because we were just so intrigued by the new maps, new Pokémon, new music, everything about it was sensational. Easily one of the best games made. Will forever miss those times as a kid, I hope my daughter will grow up and have a Pokémon game that has a lasting impact like it did with us.
The route songs are so well made. I feel like those were the ones I heard the most because I was always exploring them trying to battle everybody and find secrets
Still crazy to imagine this music being "nostalgic". I've been playing pokemon since I was a toddler, and the gen 4 games feel so recent still. I remember booting up my copy of pokemon diamond at my old house, when my little sister was a baby, my dad worked a completely different job, and I had just started middle school. Now my sister is an adult, my mom's old company dissolved and she started her own business, my dad got promoted to a VP position at his company, and I've been a high school teacher for several years, but I'm currently studying to transition to tech. Crazy how so much has changed, but these games still feel so new.
I jumped on my laptop to play a specific song, but this started playing as soon as I opened my laptop.... and I couldn't help but leave this playing instead...
No matter how far I drift into the boundless future, hearing these melodies will never fail to bring me back to those days. In an instant, I recall the sights, smells, and sounds of my youth. I will remain eternally grateful for this franchise and all that it has done.
Pokemon OSTs are worth listening to no matter what gen you started. I discovered pokemon when I was about to enter preschool in 2001 thanks to the anime and gameboy releases, but I got hooked with Pearl around in 2008 when I had my first DS as a gift. I remembered looking forward finishing classes to go home and cook more poffins to my buddy empoleon. Now as a tired adult in twenties, I am glad to listen to these nostalgic pieces that give me a sense of peace from daily struggles. I just imagined my pokemon buddies were cheering by my side to never give up during these hard times.
holy fucking shit my heart is crying :((( me when i was 14 would have fucking never thought i’d be bawling my eyes out at 26, everything is so nostalgic, even the ones ive forgotten. those who composed these music have no business being this BUSSIN
I had this Pokemon song stuck in my head all day. I couldn’t remember the song or which Pokemon game it was from. So I listened to all these tracks all over UA-cam and watched tons of videos carefully listening to the tracks. I found it finally on your video. It was _Pokemon League (Night)_ at 38:54. Thank you.
This made me realize how much I miss Sinnoh. It was a great gen, truly. And that's not the Nostalgia talking. Platinum was one of the best games I've ever played. That was it for me. Besides the fact that the E4 and champion were extremely difficult.
Back home, its dusk, my mom was cooking our dinner, my father was on his way home, my sister arranging her things for school tomorrow, and me, playing this in a phone where sometimes the application i used crushed. Many years after i finished. I can't stop myself while i looked at sky at night, the stars in it, and looked at it's light that was supposed to shine down if not for its distance. And doing it, it feels like i am traveling, looking back home.
13:21 This track always takes me back to 2009, staying up late, trying to shiny hunt. Immediately closing my DS when i hear parents walk by my room. I sometimes would fall asleep while listening to it.
So many bangers in this generation, even better than gen 3. For me, Pokemon franchise ended here. I must say, it has been quite a beautiful journey. Pokemon always had a way to enter in my heart, maybe because I really loved it when I discovered almost as a baby, and I growed with it... I don't know but I am so grateful I am living this era, I can't keep my tears...
I still remember the end of spring days, coming home from elementary school, going straight to my room, jumping on my bed with the warm afternoon sun shining on it, and booting up my DSi to play some Pokémon Platinum that my neighbor gave to me. Simpler times 😢
all these songs remind me of when I realized I needed to get my act together and be the man everyone already expected me to be, these songs remind me of how my inner child succumbed to social guillotine and I had to butcher that young boy to become the man that I am right now, focused and collected, mindful of others and respectful. back then, I was going through a break up, the most important breakup of my life and these songs soften me up and caressed my soul long enough for me to endure the pain of going through something as traumatic as the break up of a loved one. I dont miss those times, I miss myself been so innocent and free of the pains life has put me through, this is what nostalgia represents for me.
I love Platinum so much. I specifically remember the one time I stayed up later than I should have/woke up in the middle of the night just to evolve my nighttime friendship evolution Pokemon (Crobat, Chimecho). Dunno why I remember that specifically since I've played the games so much, but I just remember that I guess
Man I remember back in 2009 school was out one weekday and both my parents had to work so they had me stay at a neighborhood parent’s house. I played Pokémon platinum from gym 3 to victory road from the morning I was dropped off till evening. I still remember myself on that couch playing 15 years in the future 🖤
I started with the originals, and loved gen 2 a lot, yet somehow I am most nostalgic about my time playing Platinum. There was something special about it... and the music is so lovely.
I only started playing Gen 4 in 2016 cause I was so attached to Gen 2. I really missed out so much, but I'm so glad I got to play it eventually. I still am playing Renegade Platinum on my phone and the game's novelty is still fresh and intact. :)
im crying platinum was one of my favorite games. i remember playing it on emulator when i was like 9 trying to evolve a haunter into gengar but didnt know u had to trade it to do so
Thank you for this nostalgia trip. Sinnoh is the best region fight me and also Diamond was my second pokemon game I played. Later I got Platinum and played the living crap out of it. Good times, I was humming along to all these master pieces, great selection!
9:44 shit bro i wanna go back to these days, just bein an 8 yr old kid that only needs to play with pokemon and don't care about life problems Pokemon D,P & Pl THANK U ❤️
Brings me back to when my older sister and I would play... We would each get different versions of the game(which worked out because we'd always play our favorite.) Diamond and Pearl underground was one of our favorite things to do! Miss these days
The fact that this had to end made everyone of us appreciate this songs more today. An eternal cicle of adults with kids who who will also create their memories,but this time we are the older ones.
This sends me back to the nights I’d be playing this late into the night while hiding under my covers and pretending to be asleep whenever my mom came in to check up on me. Easier times. Pokemon still brings me the same comfort, even nearly 15 years later. Even before gen 4, Pokemon was in my life- since the day I was born quite literally. But this was the first generation where the game wasn’t a handed down and already-played copy from an older gen- this was the first one that was mine. I don’t remember much about my team since that DS was lost many years ago, but I hope Bubbles the Empoleon and my Swellow that I’ve forgotten the name of are both doing well wherever they may be.
i was born in 2008, but am lucky to enough to have an older brother who let me use his DS when i was a small child and i played pokemon diamond on it. Didnt know how to play but i enjoyed the music and just running around the starting area. I still have the same DS and pokemon game case and card and im replaying it right now, and now im old enough to actually understand how to play XD
Gen 4 is the best generation of Pokemon. Pokédex was at an all time best with new evolutions of old gen Pokémon and the whole Sinnoh region felt like a grand adventure. Gen 4 has the best music as well.
Thanks for uploading this playlist, you are carrying me through my internship, I have some days where I just hate the thought of being there but this playlist helps me pass the time. I hope you know there are people like me who appreciate this like crazy.
Wasn't my first pokemon game, but it was the first one I was old enough to be appreciative of -! Love having this music on almost weekly now in the background, thank you!
Gen 4 was the game i first made it into the top 10 worldwide i am so thankfull for that experience. I never followed my talents cause i refused to play tournaments but im glad i was up there competing with the best. Some of those battles live in me forever and make me who i am now. ❤
Ive been a huge Pokénerd since I was a kid. Had lots of trading cards and plushies lol. Pokémon Platnium was the first Pokémon game I'd played when I was 8 years old. Sinoh will always have a very, very special place in my heart 🥰
By far the best music out of the entire series, and it's due to one person, Hitomi Sato. 80% of the music is done by her. If it isn't a grand theme or battle theme (80%masuda 20% go ichinose), it will be done by Hitomi. Most of these tracks are all Hitomi Sato. She hasn't spearheaded a game's audio design since.
I miss a time in which I wasnt too happy. I was just a lonely kid with no friends with a nintendo ds crying when I got excluded by my classmates. But looking back and relistening to these songs, I feel so sad that time passed. Is that how nostalgia works?
Gen 4 wasn't the first pokemon games i played but they were the first pokemon games that I beat by myself without having to rely on anyone else for help
38:54 (i feel like i got to go now… maybe we never meet again, but i enjoyed to have you as a friend… farewell now………. Who am i … were am i going…. The past still remains….. this world had become to dark…. I cant stand this no more)
Noooooo! We can’t give up we must have FAITH and The Lord God Christ Jesus will come back for Us. Don’t cry you’re forgiven of all of you’re Sins! Heaven awaits I love you beloved
Nintendo never have been popular in my country, we didn't have any ds's or wii's. A couple of days ago I just bought a DSI and started playing pokemon platinum. It's kinda weird seeing internet talking nostalgic about this game. I've never ever see this game before and no one in my environment didn't know about it either. It's completely new experience for me.

Nostalgia is the best kind of pain.
❤❤
Yeah it can be a blessing and a curse 😢
Its a holy kind of pain
soothing, at the end of it
it hurts so much, yet it feels so good
gen 4 was my brothers favorite gen and I will never forget me being a kid and going to the top bunk of the bed and watching him play diamond. THANK YOU!!!
Same, fam, same 🥹🥰🥰.

Ouch my heart 😭
If your brother were to read this I'm sure he'd tear up..

And finally I met her, Cynthia, my favorite champion and my childhood crush. I, like others, caught Vietnamese flashbacks from her theme, but in fairness, her theme is very good and perfectly conveys her style, character, as well as her theme as a real one The boss is exciting and threatening.
Yes, I lost to her quite a few times, her Garchomp is faster than diarrhea, seriously, and when she uses Full Restore it was really a pain, all the efforts seemed to be in vain.

But after completing the game, I often walked to my favorite places and eventually got to the Stark Mountain subquest event and was able to defeat Cynthia again, but it was still very difficult and finally I completed Pokemon Platinum and then even Pokedex.
And I keep playing again and again, leveling up other Pokemon and just having a good time in Sinnoh. I remember bragging to others my friends and classmated that I know Sinnoh better than my city.
With the advent of my own computer, I did not forget about Pokemon Platinum and happily completed this game more than 5 times, remembering the old days, and then I completed FireRed, Leaf Green, Ruby, Pokemon Yellow and other parts.
A lot of time has passed since that moment. I grew up and Pokemon still occupy a huge part in my heart. Morning series of Ash's adventures in Johto, Kalos, Unova Pokemon games, arguments with friends about which type is better, which Pokemon is stronger, whichever you would have a team if there was a GYM Leader or part of Elite Four, or even a Champion and also dreams of Pokemon in real life....

9:14 is the music you didn’t know you missed until you hear it again. What a time, what a life. We always wonder about who we will become but I wonder if the kid that used to play Pokémon all day long is proud of what I’ve become.
you dont need to hit me in the feels like that
Eterna City man. Takes me back to the times of being in elementary school, finishing up my homework, and then finding the time to play on my DS. The greatest of times, if only we could go back.
i remember i had this song in mind for at least a decade, then i went on a deep nostalgic dive into pokemon song to find it again. One of the best songs in videogames!
My god, that music put a smile on my face. I absolutely don’t remember in what place or occasion it is, but all the musics for gen 4 was superb!
The first few notes of this song playing on repeat as I switched between routes trying to catch the traveling legendaries
Gen 4 was my first exposure to pokemon, at that time, everything was strange and interesting. For me, those days were very precious
Great comment
Yea, nowadays there's just too much, the new Pokemon have increasingly silly names & looks and everything has become one big anime. Miss the good ol' days. *
Hoenn is adventurous, catastrophic and competitive. Unova is mysterious and both modern and ancestral. But Sinnoh is *serene*, spatial and powerful. Arceus bless you.
Arceus is a human thing. Arceus cannot do good or bad. Arceus remaint silent forever.
@@SalutIciRobert what's your point?
What was johto and kanto ?
absolutely nailed it
Why?
If I could ever have a wish granted by a magical being, it would be to get me back to when I was a 10 year old playing Pokemon and having absolutely no other worries on my mind other than what Pokemon to add to my party...
Yep, training them whole summer to battle friends when school opens 😊
you could just wish to be hanging with pokemon irl
@@sonalliandrews4098 Peak childhood, I remember coming to school feeling proud of my lv 100 Infernape. sigh ;-;
The atmosphere of Sinnoh is so incredible, it's what best represents the word "nostalgia" in video games terms in my eyes.
It's so interesting how much this takes me back. I remember playing these games when I was around 7 or 8 years old in my old neighborhood with the other kids... we could just sit next to each other with our DS systems and play our own game all day, talking about it, our newest catch, what gym leader we were battling. Then Black and White came out and we all got them on release day and played nonstop. It was just so simple, playing Pokemon games with childhood friends after school until dinner time. Is it bad that I'm tearing up at the memory?
I'm 20 years old now. I'm studying music, and just recently won a position with a professional orchestra, and have been teaching quite a bit as well. I went through a suicidal bit during quarantine. A girl I was dating for two years broke up with me a couple months ago. My parents are old and frankly don't have much time left with them. Life has been good to me, but it's also overwhelming at times. It's so oddly relaxing yet simultaneously emotional to sit here and listen to this, reminiscing of simpler times where the only thing going on in my life was whatever new Pokemon I caught so I could flex on my friends lol.
I moved away from that neighborhood when I was about ten years old. I don't hear from those old friends much. I wonder how they're doing...
Wow. So relatable
wheres pokemon
@@Flying244
i'm glad you're still here
@@frogboy831 thank you. even from a stranger on the internet, that means a lot.
i can relate to a lot of what you said in your comment. simpler times, when everything wasnt so serious and so overwhelming. ive found myself going back to these nostalgia pokemon music compilations as a calming comforting way of saying that life doesnt need to be as serious as ive been taking it. as someone else said in the replies, im also glad youre still here. ive lost friends and family along the way and am glad to still be here as well, able to reminise and enjoy life even when its difficult to do so :)
The music of DPPt really helped make Sinnoh feel like a real region. Quiet coziness early on, evolving into immense grandure as you complete your journey.
I started with Kanto and put the most hours into Hoenn but Sinnoh will always feel like home to me
I share this 100%
15:00 eterna forest is the best heartwarming thing I had
15:57 is my favourite part
i read this comment first right when i started up the video, pressed the timestamp... and it made me tear up... i miss my childhood
Same 😭😭😭😇
Eterna Forest is heart warming to you? For me it has a very mysterious feeling to it. That there is something here that isn't quite ordinary.
@@Spika94 yes... because the title is nostalgic pokemon music
I won't lie, my childhood was shit but playing platinum really helped me hold it together, even thought i don't remember much of the game. Somehow I still remember the music perfectly.
I still have the cartridge, with my 600 hour save file intact. It was my whole introduction to pokemon too. lol
Same to the first part. Most of my childhood memories are just my brother and I playing Pokemon together. I guess I blacked everything else out. Oh well, I mostly just remember the good stuff anyway. I was a dumb kid so I just restarted my save files whenever I got bored/tired of them.
Glad you’re still here and glad this game comforted you! 💖
Whatever Gen might be your all-time favorite, Pokémon music as a whole always comes out on top for each of 'em.
Listening to this music fills me with a profound melancholic sadness. There will never be a pokemon generation quite like Gen 4 ever again, but man am I glad I was there to experience it when I was a kid.
24 now and this music makes me feel like im living the golden days. god i love pokemon so much.
Life is not like it was when we were kids, but it doesn’t mean is not beautiful anymore… a lot of good things are ahead of us waiting, lets keep going guys for us, for who we were and for who we will be :)
Will never forget sharing gen 4 with my older brother. He got Diamond, I got Pearl. He never really got into Pokemon like me, so I'm sure it's just a distant memory for him. But I'll never forget those times.
Yeah
Literally have the same exact memory haha
Man, same here. My older brother and I always got the opposite versions, except Platinum. I believe it was the first game we each had, but I was too young to remember much. To this day, I can't remember if my first game was Platinum or Black, but I love both so much. Some of my best memories from my childhood are just my brother and I battling each other or playing together, mostly in Heart Gold and Soul Silver
@@Keydickenman sameeeeee. i’ll forever cherish those days
Same here omg! I always was the more "gaming-fascinated" sibling. I always hoped my brother also had fun playing Pearl (I had Diamond, later Plat).
Now, he's working in banking & finance, never really played any games (he's 26 as well) since then. Meanwhile I love looking back at this time. The only time, where my brother and I were playing the SAME game. What I know now is, that this time was a once-in-a-lifetime thing...
I don't think that he has ever looked back at this time of life. I don't think it holds as much of importance to him, as it did and does for me :(
26:30 man...
Ill never forget this day from my childhood.
I was supposed to have a football game this day, but my mom told me it got cancelled due to snow.
5 min later me drinking happily my chocolate drink, I enter Route 216 and hear this banger...
Genuinely magical. To be back in such cosy times just for one day…
i have a memory with that song, me catching my first snover and sneasel a day classes were canceled
Snow football game?
Almost made me cry ngl...
ah,,, now you're reminding me how i used to walk to my boyfriend's house trudging through the snow with this song on, and then we went and played platinum together and made it to this exact part. i was showing them for the first time >:D
Pokemon diamond, pearl, and platinum. These games are ingrained within my memory and never fail to bring back good memories of wonder and excitement. I think what really adds the silver lining is the music. It is just perfect, in my opinion. A lot of the tracks and themes in the game are quite melancholy, I would literally just go to the lake next to the hometown to listen to the music. Tell me I have rose-tinted glasses on, sure, but I believe the reason they failed to remaster these games is because newer games just fail to capture that same ambience and mysterious qualities diamond pearl and platinum have. There is much less hand holding -- I spent 2 weeks stuck after beating the fourth gym in diamond because I had no idea that you had to go back to hearthome city. Call it bad game-design (maybe a little), call my child brain tiny (very much so) but these quirks are what made these games so memorable. Thank you for all the good times Sinnoh
Reading these comments is moving me to tears. And the Professor Rowan theme will always make my heart soar.
No matter how many other things I find myself getting deeply deeply into, I always come back to the Pokémon gen 3 and gen 4 games. Those ten cartridges feel like home.
for me this is the most nostalgic music of the universe. recall a lot of good moments and even bad moments, but feels so warm in the canva of the memories
All because of one lady, Hitomi Sato.
Missed the days when I played the gen 4 games after I come home from school.
Dude, you picked all the tunes that really captured the essence of gen 4. This is a great playlist, and good choice on your part.
Whenever i listen to these tracks, its probably the closest thing to a time machine. Takes me back to 2007 2008 as a 6th and 7th grader....gen 4 is my favorite when it comes to the soundtracks. I just find it crazy how certain sounds and tracks takes me back to a place 17 years ago. Thanks for this. So many gems gen 4.
Nostalgia is the best kind of pain !
Currently sobbing I never knew how much job Heart home City (Night) brought me until rn. I was doing my college math hw (ew) and the tune came into my head. I hunted yt violently for this song and it brought so much joy to hear again for the first time in what may very well be 14 years. (,: thank you
Reviewing for my midterm exams, currently, I am a 3rd yr Medical Technologist student and the last time I listened to this was when I was still in highschool and also when I was grade 4 in elementary level. Nothing but just pure golden memories and emotions the Pokemon company has given me.
damn unc
In my opinion the best tunes will always be in Sinnoh, it was the first Pokemon game I have ever played, there's something about it that makes me very happy every time I listen it to
I’ve played gold, sapphire, leaf green, but man when I played diamond with my brother for the first time it was amazing. We took our ds everywhere we went because we were just so intrigued by the new maps, new Pokémon, new music, everything about it was sensational. Easily one of the best games made. Will forever miss those times as a kid, I hope my daughter will grow up and have a Pokémon game that has a lasting impact like it did with us.
hopefully...its sad what the pokemon franchise has turned into.. luckity theres plenty of great fan made stuff thatts extremely high quality
That Twinleaf Town theme make me want to comeback from my childhood. It was nice to see hear these themes again. Thank you.
The route songs are so well made. I feel like those were the ones I heard the most because I was always exploring them trying to battle everybody and find secrets
Still crazy to imagine this music being "nostalgic". I've been playing pokemon since I was a toddler, and the gen 4 games feel so recent still. I remember booting up my copy of pokemon diamond at my old house, when my little sister was a baby, my dad worked a completely different job, and I had just started middle school.
Now my sister is an adult, my mom's old company dissolved and she started her own business, my dad got promoted to a VP position at his company, and I've been a high school teacher for several years, but I'm currently studying to transition to tech.
Crazy how so much has changed, but these games still feel so new.
I jumped on my laptop to play a specific song, but this started playing as soon as I opened my laptop.... and I couldn't help but leave this playing instead...
Starting with Canalave City made my heart just feel all warm and fuzzy... These games were monumental in shaping my childhood!
No matter how far I drift into the boundless future, hearing these melodies will never fail to bring me back to those days. In an instant, I recall the sights, smells, and sounds of my youth. I will remain eternally grateful for this franchise and all that it has done.
Same brother. Nostalgia is that kind of “pain”
26:31 this song hits different when you're getting hit with 100+ cm of snow
MAAAAAAAAAN! Thank you for making this! Mucho appreciated homie
I've really loved the progression from 8bit music to THIS. It's just incredible to hear
Ds시절 게임들을 보면 어릴적 그 순간의 장소와 사람들, 분위기와 감정들이 떠올라 뭔가 슬퍼져요😢
Pokemon OSTs are worth listening to no matter what gen you started. I discovered pokemon when I was about to enter preschool in 2001 thanks to the anime and gameboy releases, but I got hooked with Pearl around in 2008 when I had my first DS as a gift. I remembered looking forward finishing classes to go home and cook more poffins to my buddy empoleon. Now as a tired adult in twenties, I am glad to listen to these nostalgic pieces that give me a sense of peace from daily struggles. I just imagined my pokemon buddies were cheering by my side to never give up during these hard times.
holy fucking shit my heart is crying :((( me when i was 14 would have fucking never thought i’d be bawling my eyes out at 26, everything is so nostalgic, even the ones ive forgotten. those who composed these music have no business being this BUSSIN
I had this Pokemon song stuck in my head all day. I couldn’t remember the song or which Pokemon game it was from. So I listened to all these tracks all over UA-cam and watched tons of videos carefully listening to the tracks. I found it finally on your video. It was _Pokemon League (Night)_ at 38:54. Thank you.
This made me realize how much I miss Sinnoh. It was a great gen, truly. And that's not the Nostalgia talking. Platinum was one of the best games I've ever played. That was it for me. Besides the fact that the E4 and champion were extremely difficult.
Back home, its dusk, my mom was cooking our dinner, my father was on his way home, my sister arranging her things for school tomorrow, and me, playing this in a phone where sometimes the application i used crushed. Many years after i finished.
I can't stop myself while i looked at sky at night, the stars in it, and looked at it's light that was supposed to shine down if not for its distance. And doing it, it feels like i am traveling, looking back home.
Love this, gen 3 make starting with littlleroot too, thank you for making these they're perfect
13:21 This track always takes me back to 2009, staying up late, trying to shiny hunt. Immediately closing my DS when i hear parents walk by my room. I sometimes would fall asleep while listening to it.
This gives me an insane amount of nostalgia. Great playlist.
So many bangers in this generation, even better than gen 3. For me, Pokemon franchise ended here. I must say, it has been quite a beautiful journey. Pokemon always had a way to enter in my heart, maybe because I really loved it when I discovered almost as a baby, and I growed with it... I don't know but I am so grateful I am living this era, I can't keep my tears...
I still remember the end of spring days, coming home from elementary school, going straight to my room, jumping on my bed with the warm afternoon sun shining on it, and booting up my DSi to play some Pokémon Platinum that my neighbor gave to me. Simpler times 😢
all these songs remind me of when I realized I needed to get my act together and be the man everyone already expected me to be, these songs remind me of how my inner child succumbed to social guillotine and I had to butcher that young boy to become the man that I am right now, focused and collected, mindful of others and respectful.
back then, I was going through a break up, the most important breakup of my life and these songs soften me up and caressed my soul long enough for me to endure the pain of going through something as traumatic as the break up of a loved one.
I dont miss those times, I miss myself been so innocent and free of the pains life has put me through, this is what nostalgia represents for me.
I love Platinum so much. I specifically remember the one time I stayed up later than I should have/woke up in the middle of the night just to evolve my nighttime friendship evolution Pokemon (Crobat, Chimecho). Dunno why I remember that specifically since I've played the games so much, but I just remember that I guess
Man I remember back in 2009 school was out one weekday and both my parents had to work so they had me stay at a neighborhood parent’s house. I played Pokémon platinum from gym 3 to victory road from the morning I was dropped off till evening. I still remember myself on that couch playing 15 years in the future 🖤
I started with the originals, and loved gen 2 a lot, yet somehow I am most nostalgic about my time playing Platinum. There was something special about it... and the music is so lovely.
I only started playing Gen 4 in 2016 cause I was so attached to Gen 2. I really missed out so much, but I'm so glad I got to play it eventually. I still am playing Renegade Platinum on my phone and the game's novelty is still fresh and intact. :)
im crying platinum was one of my favorite games. i remember playing it on emulator when i was like 9 trying to evolve a haunter into gengar but didnt know u had to trade it to do so
I can never unsee that single pixel of missing ground at the top left. And now you can't too
Thank you for this nostalgia trip. Sinnoh is the best region fight me and also Diamond was my second pokemon game I played. Later I got Platinum and played the living crap out of it. Good times, I was humming along to all these master pieces, great selection!
9:44 shit bro i wanna go back to these days, just bein an 8 yr old kid that only needs to play with pokemon and don't care about life problems
Pokemon D,P & Pl THANK U ❤️
Brings me back to when my older sister and I would play... We would each get different versions of the game(which worked out because we'd always play our favorite.) Diamond and Pearl underground was one of our favorite things to do! Miss these days
Listening to this at work is a vibe
The fact that this had to end made everyone of us appreciate this songs more today.
An eternal cicle of adults with kids who who will also create their memories,but this time we are the older ones.
This sends me back to the nights I’d be playing this late into the night while hiding under my covers and pretending to be asleep whenever my mom came in to check up on me. Easier times. Pokemon still brings me the same comfort, even nearly 15 years later. Even before gen 4, Pokemon was in my life- since the day I was born quite literally. But this was the first generation where the game wasn’t a handed down and already-played copy from an older gen- this was the first one that was mine. I don’t remember much about my team since that DS was lost many years ago, but I hope Bubbles the Empoleon and my Swellow that I’ve forgotten the name of are both doing well wherever they may be.
Galactic takeover just never fails to amaze me. It’s my favorite song in Sinnoh
I want to go back to this time. I wish I'd known how good it was. It hurts.
could not have come at a better time. Thank you so much for this!
literally crying inside as i have my childhood flash through my head
This game is the reason I met my childhood best friend of over 13 years now. Really holds a special place in my heart.
This playlist is so nostalgic it’s sorta painful 😂 great mix!
i was born in 2008, but am lucky to enough to have an older brother who let me use his DS when i was a small child and i played pokemon diamond on it. Didnt know how to play but i enjoyed the music and just running around the starting area. I still have the same DS and pokemon game case and card and im replaying it right now, and now im old enough to actually understand how to play XD
Gen 4 is the best generation of Pokemon. Pokédex was at an all time best with new evolutions of old gen Pokémon and the whole Sinnoh region felt like a grand adventure. Gen 4 has the best music as well.
Pokemon just isnt the same for me anymore, I wish I could go back to gen 4/5 and experience it all again exactly how I did the first time
Thanks for uploading this playlist, you are carrying me through my internship, I have some days where I just hate the thought of being there but this playlist helps me pass the time. I hope you know there are people like me who appreciate this like crazy.
Still going strong, 1 month left!
Wasn't my first pokemon game, but it was the first one I was old enough to be appreciative of -! Love having this music on almost weekly now in the background, thank you!
OMG GEN 4 IS MY FAV POKEMON GEN
I GREW UP WITH POKEMON PLATINUM AND I WANNA BE YOUNG AGAIN 😭😭😭
all bangers all the time. peak gen hands down
Lake 17:27❤
Gen 4 was the game i first made it into the top 10 worldwide i am so thankfull for that experience. I never followed my talents cause i refused to play tournaments but im glad i was up there competing with the best. Some of those battles live in me forever and make me who i am now. ❤
Dude, these themes move me to my childhood. 😌
6:00 The "you're using an action replay" theme
Its crazy to think how great gen 4 was
Oh SInnoh, the safe haven of my childhood :o
home
best soundtrack in the entire series period
Ive been a huge Pokénerd since I was a kid. Had lots of trading cards and plushies lol. Pokémon Platnium was the first Pokémon game I'd played when I was 8 years old. Sinoh will always have a very, very special place in my heart 🥰
wtf I've had tears in my eyes 4 times how tf does that happen
man gen 4 is weirdly special to me. Thanks for the compilation
By far the best music out of the entire series, and it's due to one person, Hitomi Sato. 80% of the music is done by her. If it isn't a grand theme or battle theme (80%masuda 20% go ichinose), it will be done by Hitomi. Most of these tracks are all Hitomi Sato. She hasn't spearheaded a game's audio design since.
I miss a time in which I wasnt too happy. I was just a lonely kid with no friends with a nintendo ds crying when I got excluded by my classmates. But looking back and relistening to these songs, I feel so sad that time passed. Is that how nostalgia works?
a couple seconds in: my eyes lose focus and my brain goes numb as a tidal wave of nostalgia washes over me
This was my first Pokémon, like I started to like Pokémon when this game came out. 👌🏼❤️ I was 10 years old and played this 24/7 on my NDS. 😢
They just don't make them like this anymore
You mean...with Love🥲
Love the concept!
route 209 is great. i can't really recall any other route music that's as memorable.
17:30 is so Pokemon Mystery Dungeon. I love it
I also watched the Diamond & Pearl Anime in 2008!
Gen 4 wasn't the first pokemon games i played but they were the first pokemon games that I beat by myself without having to rely on anyone else for help
Got this when I was 11 and Pokemon Platinum was all the craze. I miss those days
38:54 (i feel like i got to go now… maybe we never meet again, but i enjoyed to have you as a friend… farewell now………. Who am i … were am i going…. The past still remains….. this world had become to dark…. I cant stand this no more)
Yeah bro the world become so dark . I wish we could just back in time and be kids again the good old days man it hits so hard .
Noooooo! We can’t give up we must have FAITH and The Lord God Christ Jesus will come back for Us. Don’t cry you’re forgiven of all of you’re Sins! Heaven awaits I love you beloved
Thanks for this upload! For me no other soundtrack can ever capture so much emotion 💙
Nintendo never have been popular in my country, we didn't have any ds's or wii's. A couple of days ago I just bought a DSI and started playing pokemon platinum. It's kinda weird seeing internet talking nostalgic about this game. I've never ever see this game before and no one in my environment didn't know about it either. It's completely new experience for me.
Listening to this after a break-up. it hurts, but least there's solace.
Nostálgic músic Will always bring back memorys off My Childhood
