The worst opening is by far this one.

The sub ones are pretty much all winners, though OK is probably my least favourite. It's far from being shit though, unlike that dub one.

Only when "plot" demands it. If you fucking watched Gen 3, he was actually beating trainers left and right, but only when he fought the gyms/Elite 4 members, he loses mainly because of his "muh arrogance." Otherwise, he was quite unbeatable compared to the average trainers.

The Japanese have consistently GOAT endings (except maybe X Straight Y Scenery), and the only time we get one it's shit. I hate rap though.

We need objectively great stuff like this:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=knQwUJHy5Jk
Not some wannabe 4Kids One Piece opening.
>>
The only good opening in the dub was the Galactic Battles opening https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uTp7rfwDEK0

The japanese opening are consistently good, although there are some bad ones like the 3rd XY one. The current OP in the sub is fantastic though.
>>
>>25830587
I meant *recently* when talking about dub openings. Some of the older ones are okay too. Although I think Galactic Battles is probably my favorite one alongside the original.
>>
Volt is probably one of the best Japanese intros ever. Consequently, the horribly butchered remix for the 2nd intro is probably one of the worst ones.

>>25827607
Honestly I think it's nice. It's just one giant medley of past openings, it's not flashy but I think it's comfy.

Does anyone get nostalgic listening to Mezase Pokémon Master? I think it's because it was in Pokémon Pinball, every time I hear it I feel just as nostalgic as hearing the first dub theme despite never watching the anime subbed.
>>
>>25831325
Definitely. Even if you didn't watch Japanese episodes or play Pinball, chances are you heard midis of it playing on old Geocities Pokemon fan sites and shrines if you were a fan back in the day.

Literal newfag.
I don't care about more than "muh nostalgia", but it isn't shit, and it has heart and charm for what Pokemon started as. Something like that on Gen 6-7 would be lame, but still better than "muh edgy Gen 4-5" openings.

Yeah Diamond and Pearl is edgy and Sinnoh League Victors can be argued but that's 2 out of 7 of them. And as I have said both times, all of 5th gen's openings are the dullest shit.

I like The Greatest Everyday and all the XY openings as well... but in terms of Japanese openings, Spurt is only rivaled by XY&Z.

Either spurt or xy&z

In english

Either johto league champions or I'm unbeatable

That opening is shit and you should feel bad for ranking so many classic goat ones lower than it.
