Defeating her makes her realize how not up to the challenge she really is in castelia City she doubts her self because of her dad and she also realized her flaws and her biggest weakness and after that you try to call her but no answer she was crying not many know about this part of Bianca or talk about it she appears again later but more tame and calm less energetic from her usual self
This is why I loved gen 5, the development of characters was not only good and present, it was meticulous and considered. I don't think even Sun and Moon's characters had that kind of development
@@Error-gz3pp Tbh I don't disagree 😅 but people regularly say that Sun and Moon's characters are the next best developed after Black and White so I thought I'd crowdplease 😅
Weren't they looking for each other in black and white 2? If you go to the old protags house the mom will be like "sorry they are away they said they were looking for a friend," sad stuff man ;v;
Does nobody remember lack-2/Blake childhood because in pokemon black 2 he had no family, no friends, nobody to have anything with and so he became a heartless trainer that doesn't care for pokemon just to finish the job and the Interpol or International Police literally raised him to be the perfect weapon only for them remove him because of no emotion then went crazy and harmed both people and pokemon to finish Lookers job to defeat team Plasma, now N tried to save his Father only for Blake to tell him to leave him he doesn't want anyone's help, not even yours then he went out to freeze Colress and turn him in after all that N asked why he does what he does and all Blake said was Be glad you have emotions and the ability to forgive I lost that at Birth only for N to say you're a bad person who believes pokemon should used as ways to do what others want before Lack turned around and said I let you leave to help return the pokemon stolen don't make me change my mind then when Interpol allows him back they said if push comes to shove kill him to make sure he won't end us all.
Gen 5 music always gets me because it reminds me of my childhood. And what really gets me is Unwavering Heart. I wish I could go back to the good old days. 😭
The description of each music, as well as the effects of certain melody and notes make the difference compared to other top we can find out on UA-cam. Please keep doing this, I love what you're doing. From France hihi
@Gamer88 Actually, what happened was that an incident happened during time travel, causing the player and Grovyle to lose hold of each other. The player washed up on the beach, losing their memories in the process, while Grovyle got to... the Eastern Forest? I think?
I legimately cried...i just noticed how i've been playing pokémon for my entire life, and how i experienced every single moment listed in the video, this is very emotional for me >< thanks for making this, your music choices coudn't be better
Unwavering Heart/Emotions and Don't Ever Forget never fail to open the floodgates. I was reading up and like " wow, that's real interesting", but I could hardly see the screen past the wall of tears on Don't Ever Forget. The Mystery Dungeon games hit that soft spot in my heart, never fail to make me shed a tear. A whole game dedicated towards this friendship. This bond. Just watching my partner lost and hopeless, it hurts the soul.
Oh boy, I was wondering how many Mystery Dungeon tracks you'd include and Through the Sea of Time and Don't Ever Forget were literally the 2 that stuck in my mind as ones that should be included and they were. Heck you know Don't Ever Forget is powerful when I got emotional just hearing it here and I felt all of my PMD2 ending feelings.
Same here m8, same here. It be the only theme on this list that still moves me to tears every time I hear it, as a grown ass man who is 21 years old, soon to be 22 next month. It’s just so powerful, you hear it once, and it’s with you forever. It will always be the reason why Mystery Dungeon holds a special place in my heart.
Honestly the main story endings for both rescue team and explorers were heckin sad. Rescue team slightly less so because you aren't getting erased from existence but it's still enough to bring grown men to tears. That whole ending sequence and the soundtracks following tied together really well. And the CREDITS MUSIC. WEW.
10. This gave me nostalgic feels. T-T 9. Is it bad that I was more happy for lillie going to kanto? 8. Can I just say we all wanna give N a hug? 7. Honestly this sounds like a cute lullaby that should be accompanied by a sleepy pichu. It's so pretty! 6. Oh my arceus the power and emotion behind this makes me cry everytime. Q^Q 5. AAAHHH THE FEELS TRAIN IS HITTING ME. 4. No N come baaaaaack!! 3. I wish they did more with Emma. Q^Q 2. Zinnia deserves all the hugs. 1(ru). ARCEUS DAMMIT I CANT STOP CRYING. 1. Welp. My heart is dust.
The saddest for me is in X and Y when this guy ask if he wants you to play his song, then it plays unwavering heart. That will always get me and is probably my favorite moment In pokmeon
Everyone agrees to that Emotion/unwavering heart in black n white should be number 1. But maybe the story is not that sad compare to mystery dungeon one Even now, some channels out there still use this music for their sad video
I actually get tears rising from the time gear theme that you used in the between. The leitmotif that arises through the main chorus of the song really hits you as you complete mystery dungeon, becoming more and more impactful.
All credits music feels quite sad tbh... It's the end of your journey... You did so much, helped people, got stronger, defeated everyone who stood in your way, became the champion... But everything is over now.
That is quite true. It reminds me of when you grow up and realize that you are now an adult and your childhood is over. Realizing that you didn't know, but was so happy for years. Sometimes you realize how much Pokémon has taught you in your childhood. When I start to think about the credits, when your trip ends, I think it is a way of expressing that you have finished a trip, such as childhood. I realized that in certain Pokémon video games, there are NPCs who tell you that when a child goes on a journey with their Pokémon, they come back as "grown-ups". Personally I interpret it this way: the trip is childhood itself, and when you realize you are already an adult, which could be interpreted as the end of the trip, and that you have to take advantage of and enjoy that trip to the fullest.
I’ll tell y’all: the post-story from x and y killed me emotionally. It was a small story but it got that special place in my brain and heart. Damn this made me tearing my eyes out qwp
same for me, i just played XY for the first time and i cant get the story out of my head, i really wish Emma wasn´t as forgotten as she is, she is so well-written and she deserves better, i hope she gets another time to shine in the future. T _ T
See “An Unwavering Heart” makes me emotional because of memories I have tied to it. My buddy who I used to always play Pokémon with got me Black Version 2 for my birthday one year, and every time I hear that song I miss him. We still call once a week but we’re really close and just...being reminded that someone really cares about me out there makes it more of a happy tears thing for me.
Unwavering Heart and N's Farewell are the only songs in any soundtrack that manage to tear me up every single time I listen to them. And the cover in Pokémon Masters of Unwavering Heart is just as tear-jerking
God damn you alpha sapphire makin me cry In all seriousness, this was the first Pokémon game I played, and oh man, it hit me hard. HUGE impact on my life because of the story and music. I’ve restarted and replayed at least 20 times. I can’t get enough, and I never, EVER will.
Imo almost every hometown theme also deserves a honorable mention (especially Nuvema town), since the nostalgic feeling you get after beating the main campaign, becoming champ, etc. and coming home back to your roots where everything began is something everyone can experience, with their own individual experiences to think back to And the themes make the nostalgia hit even harder then it already is
Don't Ever Forget was the runner-up for number one, and I personally thought it should have been the actual number one. Such a beautiful piece, and one of the only times I have EVER gotten close to crying at a video game.
when I finished ORAS and heard the #1 theme, tears literally rolled down my face. My team members, my friends, everyone is ready to move on, except for me. The main character.
11:08 OMG ! I've been looking for this soundtrack ! I've never played the game so I couldn't recognise the music, but I heard it in a Twitch stream that I was watching (not live so I couldn't ask) and I finally found it ! kinda ironic in a way that it didn't make it in this top 10 list but thank you for putting it or my search for this music would have taken much longer !
I grew up with Y, and the Looker quest line gave me so much, I thought I drained the game but they're still there. I don't think I have my copy of Y anymore, but I can always thank it for the memories
This one Grovyle in Pokemon Mystery Dungeon 2 was the reason why I started to love all of its evolution line and make them part of my team in the main games whenever I could. The music of that scene might not be the saddest but the story part itself was the only time a Pokemon game made me cry.
alright but imagine this: you go to johto, and on top of Mount Silver you don't see Red, you see Lillie IMAGINE. I DONT WANT A WAR BETWEEN GENWUNNERS AND S/M FANS HERE
5:48 this one popped up in my dream for some reason and I spent a good few hours looking for it but I just couldn’t find it. I finally found it by instead of googling Pokémon theme doo doo doo I searched up Pokémon sad music
Nothing beats “Tears After the Cloudy Weather” from the pokemon anime. The track that plays when Ash is attacked by the spearows and again when releasing butterfree
Where is "Tears through the Cloudy Weather" on this list? You know the music that actually made us cry over Ash's Butterfree 20 episodes in? Was it disqualified for being anime exclusive? Or did it's intentional usage as the "sad theme in the anime" in James backstory that didn't exactly happen prevent it from being placed as even a runner up?
5:52 that's what I came looking for , I really need this for an amourshipping video!! This one's too sad 😫😔😢. Thank-you so much I needed this track bad I SUBSCRIBED!!!!!!!!
@@tanker-Sauce funny story , i just finished making another amourshipping edit . its been 2 years . ive grown a shit ton mature but i still like to ship em
An unwavering heart always manages to make me cry from all the memories I had playing Pokémon black and white 2 now my ds and 3ds are broken and I will never have those memories again
The first time I cried with sad Pokemon music was Grovyle's sacrifice....Pokemon Mystery Dungeon Explorers of Darkness was the first one I completed before I got Time and Sky. Grovyle's sacrifice...it hit me pretty hard, knowing Grovyle won't appear again...like I said...it hit me pretty hard....
let me guess, the second time is the time you realised that the character you played with this whole game practically choose suicide to save the future he came from, which erased his existence since that future no longer exists.
personally, i think the music that hits me the most (if we don’t include nostalgia because it would’ve been the platinum credits for me) is the bw ending theme. first there’s N’s farewell, making me extremely sad, then the credits come and the music is just too powerful for me. it doesn’t sound sad, it’s more triumphant but that’s what makes me sad. it shows that you’ve finished the main game and that your journey was triumphant just like this music
wow, the analysis in this video is amazing, i wasn't expecting such depth from a video i just stumbled across! from one music student to another- amazing work! and great choices too!!
How is Unwavering Emotions over used in black and white 2? The memories use the tune in every single one, but it was a theme to represent heartbreak, resilience, secrets, and naivety. All of the memories filled this role. I'm not arguing with your point. Just expressing my opinion. It filled its role every time it was used.
There is one I'd like to mention that wasn't on here... "Living Spirit" from PMD2. This song plays when Grovile and Dusknor are taking a break from traveling and Dusknor asks Grovile why he fights...if he knows the goal will result in being erased from existence, and Grovile explains that being he will die someday eventually...the timing doesn't matter...but wants to use what time he has left, to be able to save the future so that mons of future generations will be able to live a better life. This perfectly how both characters feel about life and show that both are fighting for what they believe in and that good and evil are a matter of perspective. Because from Dusknor's perspective, this will result in him being killed and he is afraid of change and would rather have things be the way they are...if it means keeping what he knows.
Mystery Dungeon EoS only game to make me cry as a kid. Like damn. That was intense. Especially the fact that when you disappear, the song is LITERALLY CALLED I Don't Wanna Say Goodbye.
I cried at this, it's just so sad. I want Pokèmon Sun and Moon The End playing at my funeral to show everybody something. It will tell them how much I cherished them, just like my team, especially Litten. It will let them know I had fun playing the game, similar to how much fun my life was in the long run. It shows that my life has been a great adventure with ups and downs, just like the battles. Then, the happy bit just at the end tells them all that it's ok that I'm not here anymore. It shows just how much I enjoyed being around them, similar to how much I enjoyed everybody in Pokèmon Sun and Moon. I'll never forget my Litten or the people in my life.
The music didn’t make my cry because I haven’t really played the games with the saddest tunes (other than ORAS) and can’t really relate to them, but this comment almost made my cry
5:47 I always think of N trying to get through to Ghetsis about pokemon bonds. And of course the theme after is ONE OF N'S THEMES. 2:40 I swear everything here is more dysfunctional than N's state of mind. 6:43 I SWEAR, I CANNOT STOP LISTENING TO THIS. It just feels like there's finally hope.. After so much pain and suffering... We finally made N understand what he should do.. I can't wait to see him again whenever he shows up...
The saddest ones on pokemon mystery dungeon-explorers of the sky is when the player vanishes and your friend go without you and crying at the flying stone...I just getting some eyetears out from my eyes....
I pretty much agree with this list, but I really miss Kiseki. I don't really remember if it was even in the game, the only thing I know about it is that it was played during a farewell event for Satoru Iwata, and while the music, especially its lyrics is really touching, its also pretty dang sad. It's one of my all-time favorite Pokémon themes, and it breaks my heart that it wasn't used for the XY games' ending (but I admit, the theme that ended up as number 1 really deserves its place, specially after playing through OR 2 times, both with the Delta Episode)
Good video, I just noticed you forgot snowbell city in honourable mention. I think you are just nnot in the context but this is a great mix of epic, sadness and nostalgia.
A wavering heart: ;-; N's farewell: THIS FEELS WORSE THAN SHADOW'S PIANO THEME Emma's theme: not as sad as n's farewell Lament of the falling stars: well uhhhh I don't know how to explain this one Don't ever forget: well this theme was not as sad but THE STORY FOR THIS PART IS SADDDD 😭😭😭
I feel like Enveloped in Light/Time to Part Ways should’ve been on this list, possibly on the same spot. (SPOILERS FOR SUPER MYSTERY DUNGEON. DO NOT CLICK READ MORE IF YOU HAVEN’T PLAYED IT YET AND DON’T WANT SPOILERS.) As your partner is enveloped in a ball oflight, they explained that they knew they would have to go when Xerneas revealed their past. However, they begged him/her/it/whatever-pronouns-you-prefer (even though it’s referred to as male) to at least inform the player. Their past as Mew remains as part of them, but at the same time, they’re a new Pokémon. The part of them that’s Mew is glad that their task from long ago has been completed, but the part of the, that’s your partner is heartbroken that they have to give up on their dreams... and leave you. The music’s simple but somewhat mysterious-sounding repeating note patterns may symbolize the fact that it’s a shock that your partner is the one who leaves, since first time players who expect the same ending as all other PMD games may not be able to process this right away. (Heck, even the in-game player character thinks they’ll have to go!) However, the partner’s sadness can be heard in the sad chords mixed in throughout. Time to Part Ways is basically the point of Enveloped in Light where the player recovers from the shock, fully realizing what’s going on. The music is much clearly sadder, as the in-game player and partner both break into tears. The partner realizes that their time with the player has run out as the light (and music) get stronger, and they let the player know that they’re the one who taught them that the world only keeps going through support and acceptance, as the ball of light grows even stronger. Your partner thanks you for all of the adventures you had, and rises into the sky. You then hear their last words: “I’ll be fine! I’m always fine, aren’t I? So, ... Do me one last favor... and don’t you cry!” The player character realizes that this is why they chose to forget everything, as this was the only way things could end. Around that time (depending on whether or not you button mashed), the music loops back to around a certain point before, and at said point, the music seems a little hopeful, as if your character, despite seeming to have lost their best friend, still has hope deep down inside that they’ll reunite with their friend. This is especially seen in the quote after the credits: “When two spirits meet and go through so much together... they must be drawn back together. They will surely meet again.”
An unwavering heart is like finding your moms old phone she left for memories and u see all the pictures with u when u were still young and finding the games u installed and all the vids u watched on her phone and all the memories
The only thing i felt the first 11 Minutes was worry. I`ve hoped with all my heart #1 would be what it is now (nearly. it`s still ru no.1) ! As you`ve shown Farewell from PMD 1 in the notable mentions, i nearly got an heart attack XD. I just am NOT willed to argue about the beauty of this title, and nobody can change my mind about Don`t ever forget being the best Videogame Track ever composed!
An Unwavering Heart always gets me.
Joshua San Diego I thought it was called emotion
It’s called f you start crying
It was also called "Got To Get It To Get" from X and Y when you talked to an NPC in one of the towns.
I was listening to it on a full loop, writing a sad song
@@Jet_Ink What kind of sad song?
I first heard number 5 while playing Black when Bianca almost stopped doing her journey because of her concerned dad and it made me cry.
Defeating her makes her realize how not up to the challenge she really is in castelia City she doubts her self because of her dad and she also realized her flaws and her biggest weakness and after that you try to call her but no answer she was crying not many know about this part of Bianca or talk about it she appears again later but more tame and calm less energetic from her usual self
Exactly. Correct usage of sad themes can make even a robot cry
This is why I loved gen 5, the development of characters was not only good and present, it was meticulous and considered. I don't think even Sun and Moon's characters had that kind of development
@Alfie Thomas EVEN??? The only characters in the franchise other than the BW rivals are the Sword and Shield rivals and the Aether siblings

Weren't they looking for each other in black and white 2? If you go to the old protags house the mom will be like "sorry they are away they said they were looking for a friend," sad stuff man ;v;
you can't convince me there are sadder themes than n's farewell

N's Farewell is the pinnacle of all sad songs...

Pokémon is absolutely fantastic, this songs catches you deep. You can feel sadness but also hope for a next time. Unbelievable!
I think "An Unwavering Hearth" is the saddest somg ever, because of the composition and the context (in Pokemon Black/White 1 and 2)
I grew up with Y, and the Looker quest line gave me so much, I thought I drained the game but they're still there. I don't think I have my copy of Y anymore, but I can always thank it for the memories
Can I just say this person is incredibly deep in their explanations? Bravo!
This one Grovyle in Pokemon Mystery Dungeon 2 was the reason why I started to love all of its evolution line and make them part of my team in the main games whenever I could. The music of that scene might not be the saddest but the story part itself was the only time a Pokemon game made me cry.
And if you watch the short anime one (PMD Explorer of Sky Beyond Time and Darkness), You can Imagine how Grovyle's VA said that from the game.
I remember N he was the best, I'm brought to tears just thinking about him.
Pokémon means so much to me man. This stuff gets me in tears every time.
My friend died recently and, despite its sad tune, listening to Emotion (It will always be emotion for me, not Unwavering Heart) helps ease my mind.
Lille goes to Kanto
The next game: A Kanto remake
HMMMMM
Seriously though if they snuck her into let's go that would make half the community happy
All they did was add that painting girl and some Alolan Forms... that's really it.
alright but imagine this: you go to johto, and on top of Mount Silver you don't see Red, you see Lillie
IMAGINE. I DONT WANT A WAR BETWEEN GENWUNNERS AND S/M FANS HERE

5:48 this one popped up in my dream for some reason and I spent a good few hours looking for it but I just couldn’t find it. I finally found it by instead of googling Pokémon theme doo doo doo I searched up Pokémon sad music
I feel like an unwavering heart should be higher
I love this list! I had really expected within the sadness (PMD) to be on here because wow it... Just invokes such dismay it's amazing.
Nothing beats “Tears After the Cloudy Weather” from the pokemon anime.
The track that plays when Ash is attacked by the spearows and again when releasing butterfree
Where is "Tears through the Cloudy Weather" on this list? You know the music that actually made us cry over Ash's Butterfree 20 episodes in? Was it disqualified for being anime exclusive? Or did it's intentional usage as the "sad theme in the anime" in James backstory that didn't exactly happen prevent it from being placed as even a runner up?
I believe the music was just from the games
that clapping music at n's castle sounds weird
XD
It's cracking of the castle. There are parts that are still cracking and is about to break off.
Its your ass getting clapped

And here I cried since the start due to the time gear.
Great musical analysis! It really made me think about the emotions the composers were trying to convey regarding the game settings.
Next do happiest pokemon music
Don't ever forget made me cry...😢
Pokemon’s ending credit scenes are always so tear-jerking. I’d usually start sulking while watching the memories flow by.
oh yeah, it only cost me an arm and a leg first half of DPP and Sun and Moon’s are the saddest
5:52 that's what I came looking for , I really need this for an amourshipping video!! This one's too sad 😫😔😢. Thank-you so much I needed this track bad
I SUBSCRIBED!!!!!!!!
@ItzDimond yes
You probably don’t get why I’m saying this, but AmourShipping is very one-sided
@@Error-gz3pp yea, ash doesnt really love serena back
I moved on from that ship it was the one that I liked the most though
@@tanker-Sauce funny story , i just finished making another amourshipping edit . its been 2 years . ive grown a shit ton mature but i still like to ship em
I think route 10 should definitely be added to this list. I remember keeping my DS open under my pillow to that song.
my sensitive ass crying at the last 4:
god damn it, here we go again.
An unwavering heart always manages to make me cry from all the memories I had playing Pokémon black and white 2 now my ds and 3ds are broken and I will never have those memories again
The first time I cried with sad Pokemon music was Grovyle's sacrifice....Pokemon Mystery Dungeon Explorers of Darkness was the first one I completed before I got Time and Sky. Grovyle's sacrifice...it hit me pretty hard, knowing Grovyle won't appear again...like I said...it hit me pretty hard....
my friend the special episodes have great news for you
Play explorers of sky, there are special episodes, and in special episode 5, best boi grovyle is on fire
let me guess, the second time is the time you realised that the character you played with this whole game practically choose suicide to save the future he came from, which erased his existence since that future no longer exists.
I don’t know why but I cried at the ending of sun and moon because I saw all of my favorite characters
personally, i think the music that hits me the most (if we don’t include nostalgia because it would’ve been the platinum credits for me) is the bw ending theme. first there’s N’s farewell, making me extremely sad, then the credits come and the music is just too powerful for me. it doesn’t sound sad, it’s more triumphant but that’s what makes me sad. it shows that you’ve finished the main game and that your journey was triumphant just like this music
wow, the analysis in this video is amazing, i wasn't expecting such depth from a video i just stumbled across! from one music student to another- amazing work! and great choices too!!
How is Unwavering Emotions over used in black and white 2? The memories use the tune in every single one, but it was a theme to represent heartbreak, resilience, secrets, and naivety. All of the memories filled this role. I'm not arguing with your point. Just expressing my opinion. It filled its role every time it was used.
Don’t ever forget is way sadder than everything else here
There is one I'd like to mention that wasn't on here... "Living Spirit" from PMD2. This song plays when Grovile and Dusknor are taking a break from traveling and Dusknor asks Grovile why he fights...if he knows the goal will result in being erased from existence, and Grovile explains that being he will die someday eventually...the timing doesn't matter...but wants to use what time he has left, to be able to save the future so that mons of future generations will be able to live a better life. This perfectly how both characters feel about life and show that both are fighting for what they believe in and that good and evil are a matter of perspective. Because from Dusknor's perspective, this will result in him being killed and he is afraid of change and would rather have things be the way they are...if it means keeping what he knows.
An Unwavering Heart is the only one that's made me cry
Unwavering heart is the one that real gets into, well my heart ❤️
So im at 0:32 rn but i wanted to say thank you for not just including the main series games
It's the mystery dungeon music that give me the chills.. AND IT'S AMAZING!
Seriously I cried when I finished playing Moon
😭😥😔
idk why but I feel sad and stuff whenever I beat the champion and the credits roll in.
My DS was on red and bad part is it was at the doctors office whenever I completed sun
An unwavering heart is the best
Yes😭
Unwavering Heart has made me cry more times than I can count, I just went through a breakup and it has brought me to tears countless times.
Yes! Explorers of Sky has a rightful place on this list!!
Mystery Dungeon EoS only game to make me cry as a kid. Like damn. That was intense. Especially the fact that when you disappear, the song is LITERALLY CALLED I Don't Wanna Say Goodbye.
I cried at this, it's just so sad. I want Pokèmon Sun and Moon The End playing at my funeral to show everybody something. It will tell them how much I cherished them, just like my team, especially Litten. It will let them know I had fun playing the game, similar to how much fun my life was in the long run. It shows that my life has been a great adventure with ups and downs, just like the battles. Then, the happy bit just at the end tells them all that it's ok that I'm not here anymore. It shows just how much I enjoyed being around them, similar to how much I enjoyed everybody in Pokèmon Sun and Moon. I'll never forget my Litten or the people in my life.
The music didn’t make my cry because I haven’t really played the games with the saddest tunes (other than ORAS) and can’t really relate to them, but this comment almost made my cry
ORAS is really sad and PSMD (Pokemon Super Mystery Dungeon)
5:47 I always think of N trying to get through to Ghetsis about pokemon bonds. And of course the theme after is ONE OF N'S THEMES.
2:40 I swear everything here is more dysfunctional than N's state of mind.
6:43 I SWEAR, I CANNOT STOP LISTENING TO THIS. It just feels like there's finally hope.. After so much pain and suffering... We finally made N understand what he should do.. I can't wait to see him again whenever he shows up...
Dont Ever Forget.. thats the theme Armenti uses in his Loomian Legacy videos... we will miss u Brick Bronze... in our hearts and in our dreams
So I thought this was gonna be only from the main games, but then the music opened up with PMD music and I immediately teared up
Any sad music from Pokemon Mystery Dungeon 2 instantly kills me, even the songs that don't sound that sad... Without context.
This brings me back so many memoris 😓
Why does the Pokémon Ranger Game over theme remimds me so much about the soundtrack "Determination" from Undertale ?
@CosmoPlaysMC Thanks
The saddest ones on pokemon mystery dungeon-explorers of the sky is when the player vanishes and your friend go without you and crying at the flying stone...I just getting some eyetears out from my eyes....
Man, why *sigh*
sniff :(
I pretty much agree with this list, but I really miss Kiseki. I don't really remember if it was even in the game, the only thing I know about it is that it was played during a farewell event for Satoru Iwata, and while the music, especially its lyrics is really touching, its also pretty dang sad. It's one of my all-time favorite Pokémon themes, and it breaks my heart that it wasn't used for the XY games' ending (but I admit, the theme that ended up as number 1 really deserves its place, specially after playing through OR 2 times, both with the Delta Episode)
Veey sad... Other emotive song is National Park, from Pokemon Gold and Silver, but if it's for other video it's ok. Good video!
N’s farewell killed me he became my favorite character instantly and still is and him leaving killed me it shattered my heart
You cant convince me that theres a more emotional song than an Unwavering Heart.
Wait, where's Fine Park from Detective Pikachu?
Ooooh, the nostalgic chills struck me as soon as I clicked on this
If this guy explained songs like this, he could make me cry to Guzman’s theme
Good video, I just noticed you forgot snowbell city in honourable mention. I think you are just nnot in the context but this is a great mix of epic, sadness and nostalgia.
God i get goosebumbs by listening to NR. 5 and NR. 1(Runner up)
A wavering heart: ;-;
N's farewell: THIS FEELS WORSE THAN SHADOW'S PIANO THEME
Emma's theme: not as sad as n's farewell
Lament of the falling stars: well uhhhh I don't know how to explain this one
Don't ever forget: well this theme was not as sad but THE STORY FOR THIS PART IS SADDDD 😭😭😭
I cannot lie, i didnt really listen to the last one when i played ORAS but now that i have i can truly appreciate how sad it is. Thank you Hero :)
I wanna play 99,9 % on a music instrument and i want those 99,9% on my funeral as well
Zinnia's sad theme the first Main line pokemon game that got me, I felt it in my soul even. Add on to this the fact we learn about her daughter
I feel like Enveloped in Light/Time to Part Ways should’ve been on this list, possibly on the same spot. (SPOILERS FOR SUPER MYSTERY DUNGEON. DO NOT CLICK READ MORE IF YOU HAVEN’T PLAYED IT YET AND DON’T WANT SPOILERS.)
As your partner is enveloped in a ball oflight, they explained that they knew they would have to go when Xerneas revealed their past. However, they begged him/her/it/whatever-pronouns-you-prefer (even though it’s referred to as male) to at least inform the player. Their past as Mew remains as part of them, but at the same time, they’re a new Pokémon. The part of them that’s Mew is glad that their task from long ago has been completed, but the part of the, that’s your partner is heartbroken that they have to give up on their dreams... and leave you. The music’s simple but somewhat mysterious-sounding repeating note patterns may symbolize the fact that it’s a shock that your partner is the one who leaves, since first time players who expect the same ending as all other PMD games may not be able to process this right away. (Heck, even the in-game player character thinks they’ll have to go!) However, the partner’s sadness can be heard in the sad chords mixed in throughout.
Time to Part Ways is basically the point of Enveloped in Light where the player recovers from the shock, fully realizing what’s going on. The music is much clearly sadder, as the in-game player and partner both break into tears. The partner realizes that their time with the player has run out as the light (and music) get stronger, and they let the player know that they’re the one who taught them that the world only keeps going through support and acceptance, as the ball of light grows even stronger. Your partner thanks you for all of the adventures you had, and rises into the sky. You then hear their last words: “I’ll be fine! I’m always fine, aren’t I? So, ... Do me one last favor... and don’t you cry!” The player character realizes that this is why they chose to forget everything, as this was the only way things could end. Around that time (depending on whether or not you button mashed), the music loops back to around a certain point before, and at said point, the music seems a little hopeful, as if your character, despite seeming to have lost their best friend, still has hope deep down inside that they’ll reunite with their friend. This is especially seen in the quote after the credits: “When two spirits meet and go through so much together... they must be drawn back together. They will surely meet again.”
An unwavering heart is like finding your moms old phone she left for memories and u see all the pictures with u when u were still young and finding the games u installed and all the vids u watched on her phone and all the memories
The only thing i felt the first 11 Minutes was worry. I`ve hoped with all my heart #1 would be what it is now (nearly. it`s still ru no.1) ! As you`ve shown Farewell from PMD 1 in the notable mentions, i nearly got an heart attack XD. I just am NOT willed to argue about the beauty of this title, and nobody can change my mind about Don`t ever forget being the best Videogame Track ever composed!
When I saw the title I was like “ lament of the falling stars better be here” now I’m crying
Mon cœur se brise a chaque fois que j’entends « lament of the falling stars »
