Yup I never appreciated it till now this music is pretty good it sounds like this coulda been the gym leader music if they had gym leaders in this game
I still think it has the most unique battle themes. Usually I’m into Gen 5, 6 or right now 9’s music. But then I listen to one song from SM and suddenly I wanna hear all of it all over again, because I forget how many unique vibes and feels it gives.
It's really light hearted, unlike other trainer themes, at least until the guitar solo. I hope it feels alright in the end game when you're facing really strong trainers.
Gen 7 is underrated. It had such a great story as well and region was great and unique. Unlike X and Y and Swsh it didn't feel rushed. Alola deserves more appreciation.
You summed up my thoughts perfectly. Even though Black & White are my favorites, Sun & Moon and Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon will always be the most complete Pokémon games to me, especially since they did all of that to make the games so incredibly good, while managing to *still* give us all of our Pokémon in the same game.
X and Y wasn't rushed. They had to create 721 3D models for every pokemon (for that time), and give ALL of these models around 5 unique animations. Not to mention all the other 3D models apart from pokemon to be rigged and animated.
Silver/Gold then black/white then moon/sun honestly are my fav. I really enjoyed these last one, and this music is one of the best battle theme in my opinion.
@@fromixty And it still needed more time in the oven. They didn’t have to release it that year after they had to make 721 (and even more for different forms) 3D models, they chose to.
loveeee the part that starts at 0:46. Beautiful! like having a battle on the beach with the sun setting with an orange pinkish hue of the sky in the background on a 80 degree evening. Super descriptive but yeah lol
Songs like this and Mewtwo's remix in X/Y are rather pointless though. Unless you're purposely holding off, you're almost never going to hear that part (or technically the song at all in the case of Mewtwo since it take 52 fucking seconds to actually properly start). As much as I like the part from 46 on, it's worthless being 46 seconds in when most battles will be done in 30 or less (unless they actually have a difficulty setting again - preferably one that's not unlocked like B2/W2 so you can start a fresh game with it).
Sun and moon were the shit back in the day i had sun and ultra sun when it came out this theme gives me nostalgia kids nowadays won't have the same greatness we had back then
*Ok,I didn’t play Pokémon Sun and Moon,but this feels some nostalgia because my brother played it and this reminds me of how good was this time... I miss it...
So many versions of Pokémon out there and this is my favorite trainer battle music by far. Haven't played Sun in years but this song came back to me and I found it.
I like both, but I really miss the epic piano in this one when listening to the USUM version. Of course that one also has some piano parts, but it's not nearly enough lol.
Pokeli if you could do the Team Skull theme that featured in the recent Japanese trailer, that would be tops. I've been really into it since the moment it came out.
I hate to say it but the overall story in the Gen 5, 7, and 9 games were all amazing and didn't feel like it was just an excuse to make a game, rather they actually cared about how the story went on like. Their soundtrack is also made with bangers only! 🔥💯
I actually did the same thing. I played the demo, all good and normal.. first battle in the demo.. nice.. then this part wildly appears on the backround theme. Immediate chills came. Then when I finished the demo ran to my PC just to look at this theme song to see if I could repeat that part indefinitely. Daaaayum was I right
Never played sun or moon but Pokémon showdown introduced me to this song and I’m glad it did. Also happy it’s in smash. The part at 0:46 is my favorite it sounds epic.
I remember hearing it in the trailers when I was a pre-teen. I was so hyped now in almost 19, and after that, it will be a "real" adult and not a teen time flies
Playing scarlet and violet makes me nostalgic for these games and how Pokémon used to be definetly not the best games in the series but atleast they were made with quality I loved the story and character Gladion is still my favourite character in Pokémon to this day
My Incineroar, Decidueye, Gumshoos, Vikavolt, Starmie, and Nebby. I played this game during a rough place in my life and it helped me get through a lot. Thank you.
If not for the ungodly amount of cutscenes and handholding, Gen 7 would easily be in my top 3 favorite Polemon games. Everything else about it is great - difficulty, Pokemon designs, the region, the music, the story and overall content of the game.
I just started playing them. Missed out out on most pokemon games after Sapphire & Ruby. I don't have a switch yet, though. So far, I've liked all the pokemon games I played, but X and Y had easy gym leaders.
THANK YOU SO MUCH! I can finally hear the official music. It's SO GOOD! :D The trainer battle theme and the wild Pokemon theme of this generation are amazing, so happy. :}
Well, I've a short, cute story with this theme... I was like 7 or 8 years old (maybe even 6) when the Sun and Moon games came out (yeah, i'm pretty young) and in those times, I was wishing for a copy of the game, i watch gameplays of the game quit a lot, and there it was, when the youtuber I was watching encounter a trainer, this theme plays, and my heart was 1000 beats per second, all I was dreaming was for having a cute Popplio, and battle with a trainer from that cool Pokemon game, in a 3ds... Now, I have a 2ds, with Pokemon UltraMoon, with a beautiful Primarina, and a great team, and when I hear this theme, I just imagine how happy my youngest me could feel when she discover that, in a lot of years, her dream will become true... (sorry if i made a mistake while writing this, I just don't want to use Google Translator, it is just horrible XD)
i wish gen 7 was on a console and completely open world with awesome hawaii would be way better for a power house console because hawaii is so pretty well when im older i will be happy when kalos and alola get remakes

It has some indigo league battle music in there.

This one and the XD/Coliseum battle themes.

Anuar Alonso yes I did lol. It's a great game.
You're in for a great suprise.
You've already heard it, haven't you?
@Admiral Smoker This is late but I think it fits there for what they tried to do with that version

Coming back to this 6 years later, a few weeks before Scarlet and Violet releases and it's still a banger! So much nostalgia in Alola for me.
I love this song! :')
I love it too !

One of the best Pokemon Trainer battle themes hands down. Catchy and awesome overall.
Those drums at 0:45 ALWAYS hype me up. Such a good battle theme, sun and moon are so underrated
0:45 love this part!
It's my fav part
Same. Those drums are the killer!
that best pokémon SOUND EVER !!!!!
I KNOW RIGHT!? IT GIVES ME THE FREAKING CHILLS WHEN EVER I HEAR THOSE ELECTRIC GUITARS!
Arguably the best Trainer Battle theme out of the majority of the games
I honestly _LOVE_ the rendition at 2:10
Maan this is such a glorious battle theme, they fucking did it. THEY DID IT
This theme never gets old
It’s been five years. FIVE YEARS!
Yep times flies, really great games
Going on six now! WHERE DO THE YEARS GO?!?!?
Now eight years.., wow, time flies
It seems so energetic.
happy, awesome and energetic goes with a tropical paradise!
The Ultra Sun/Moon version is very relaxed on the other hand
8 years holy sh bro . Feels like I got this for Christmas last year but damn 2016
5 years later and still one of my favorite trainer battle themes
0:45 = best pokemon trainer battle music to date
I got sun/moon during a 2 week trip to Florida and played half of it there, now i am reminded of florida every time i hear this. So nostalgic already.
I like that in USUM they kept this theme as the battle theme for when you fight the Trial Captains, giving them their own theme of sorts
Sun and moon were the shit back in the day i had sun and ultra sun when it came out this theme gives me nostalgia kids nowadays won't have the same greatness we had back then
