Which mainline Pokémon game has the worst music?
>>
>>33296833
Xy
>>
>>33296833
RBY.
>>
>>33296843
definitely not xy
>>
SM BW XY RBY
>>
>>33296833
I personal don't like Sun/Moon that being said I don't play Pokemon with sound up.
>>
>>33296849
xy had shit battle music tho
>>
Sinnoh imo. I'm not personally a fan of jazz, and the DS made it sound horribly shrill.
>>
>>33296833
XY probably.
Shota Kageyama a shit.
>>
DP.
>>
>>33296849
It had a few gems, but I found most of the soundtrack incredibly generic.
>>
RSE
>>
>>33296957
Definitely XY.
Nothing in that one gets stuck in your head... unlike at least one tune from the other gens.
>>
XY had a couple good tracks, but none of them were battle music, so no one remembers them

Overall, 4. Not because it was necessarily bad but because it didn't fit the region or Pokémon games in general. Some were fine, some were even great but as a whole not so much.

Especially not the common legend theme used by things like Rotom and Heatran. That was downright shit.
>>
>>33296958
Dpp has the best Soundtrack. Stop being retarded.
>>
>>33297059
full of shit: the post
>>
>>33296843
this. XY

the songs are bland and has the worst gym battle theme
>>
BW
>>
>>33297213
eh, it's fine.
>>
>>33296833
Kalosperm and Hoennba bbies btfo
>>
>>33296833
XY, for having the least memorable tunes
>>
>>33296855
I'll break your fucking legs
>>
For me, BW was the least memorable as a whole. I didn't like the low HP or gym leader final Pokemon music, either.
>>
>>33296990
Champion theme. Other battle themes blow, but damn if that one didn't get stuck in my head.

I think it's because it was one of the few that seemed to have an actual melody. The gym leader theme just sounded like someone fucking around on guitar.
>>
>>33296843
This.
>>
Gen 5. Why do people like it?
>>
DP and RS but only because of the how crappy the sounds were
>>
>>33297544
Castelia, Undella, Village Bridge, Aspertia, Mexico, Team Plasma 2, Colress, Ghetsis, N. All great music. Some of the routes are good, but I don't remember the names.
>>
XY tbqfh.
I remember no music from that game except for the Champion theme and the Team Flare theme, the latter of which is shit after hearing it more than two times in a row.

My personal favourite would have to be BW/BW2. The tracks were so atmospheric/emotional. It was great.

DP would have been first with it's smooth piano and jazz if it weren't for the shitty sound quality.
>>
>>33296833
BW or HGSS
>>
>>33296843
Only other answer is FRLG
>>
>>33296833
XY or DP for me. XY's music feels incredibly generic and boring in general. DP's music wasn't generic but it never really caught on to me. It felt like they were trying to recapture gen 2's slower melodies and forgot to make the music catchy.
>>
BW2 Elesa's Gym
Just what the hell were they thinking? That some "chic" girl would actually play videogames as a hobby?
>>
>>33296833
XY. Almost nothing memorable from it.
>>
>>33297544
BW aren't my favorite but they aren't as bad as XY or SM.
>>
>>33297918
GIVE WHAT I NE EE EED
>>
>>33297918
the unique gym themes were one of the best gym additions in any game
>>
RSE is the only answer.

If you like all those blaring trumpets, I really don't know what to say.
>>
I don't remember any music from SM
>>
>>33296833
RSE
>>

Nimbasa City is a degenerate shithole. I have a theory it's based on Las Vegas anyway.

>worst:
FRLG, HGSS. I haven't played XY.

>Best:
BW/2, DPPt.
>>
>>33298104
That's, however, the place where you spend most of the theme during post-game.
>>
>>33296833
I don't remember any tracks I even remotely liked in DP outside of the Mt. Coronet, Galactic HQ, and 216/217 routes.

Every other gen I can think of several. So my vote is on Sinnoh I guess.
>>
DPPt is the least remarkable, it took ten years for me to realize any songs but the Pokemon Center changed based on the time of day and not a one of the battle themes are memorable, XY is very close too but it has at least some standout tracks among its generic mediocrity.

If remakes count though it's HGSS for outright ruining the perfect GSC soundtrack. Its brand-new music is pretty good though.
>>
>>33298616
Yeah the hgss was really didsapppoujt until but at least they allowed you the option of listening to the game boy music
>>
>>33298131
Time to see a Doctor my friend
>>
DP's biggest problem with its music was the low-quality soundfont. By the time of HGSS, the soundfont issue was fixed, which led to BW/2's amazing soundtrack. It'll sound a lot better if DP remakes happen. Personally I want DP remakes just to hear Giratina's theme remastered.
>>
>>33298616
your faggot opinion is shit.
>>
>>33298616
perfect post
>>
>>33298616
This. I almost never go back to listen to DPPt's tracks. And I find myself listening to GSC more than HGSS, except when it comes to Ho-oh's theme.

>>33298610
i can't even name two towns from kalos, much less two songs i like from it
>>
>>33298743
Ok? Why did you feel the need to respond to my post specifically?
>>
>>33297544
Route 10, Humilau, Driftveil, and BW2 Burgh's gym and Elesa's gym, as well as Iris' theme are all amazing, and my favorite themes from Pokémon. I remember a couple others from Johto and Kalos as my favorites too, but BWBW2 are easily the best imo.
>>
>>33297544
BW1 had a few good area themes plus the whole adding instruments by talking to NPCs to help make them more memorable by giving the player some input, and BW2 picked up the slack on battle themes and had those radical Gym themes which stand out as a big change of pace.

It's not the best but it's pretty good and it has its reasons as to why people remember it so well.
>>
I just want Gyms to have seperate themes again
>>
>>33298743
Kalos power plant, Anistar, Coumarine and Jubilife are pretty great desu
>>
Ride music alone makes SM the worst
>>
X and Y. But it still had a few good songs like the trainer battle theme
>>

This. It has the least number of memorable tracks in the series, and created the worst song in the series, the Boutique theme
>>
>>33296833
The trombone in the OP is a hint

RSE, that's right
>>
>>33296833
GSC, all others are good

I mean, it does turn off when you leave an area, but it's still ass
>>
>>33302190
To be fair, every other game had bicycle music, but theirs was mostly standard upbeat music, and XY had the Skiddo theme, although that's just one route.
I personally stopped using the ride Pokemon feature since it removes any customization you had. What's the point in bringing back that feature if you can't even see it when using the bike equivalents?
>>
>>33297630
bait
>>
>>33302008
the whole game is spread too thin imo.
the safari zone is bland. the environments in all Hoenn look kinda empty. it also has the ugliest looking league and garbage post-game too much event only shit.

the music is mostly fine I think.

Not him but HGSS has a mediocre soundtrack when it comes to rearranges. Really hit and miss. A lot of the new songs are good but GB Sounds is a fucking mess and really not accurate to how GSC sounded, especially if it used the waveform channel in a meaningful way for its melody like National Park/Route 26/the Surf theme/New Bark Town/etc. did. I think HGSS has the best soundtrack of the three remixes, but that's just because FRLG and ORAS both botch things even harder than HGSS does, especially the latter.
>>
>>33296833
sun and moon
>>
>>33303710
Not either of them myself, I was fine with FRLG and ORAS because they generally don't change things as blatantly, but I will never forgive Magma/Aqua Boss for removing the clapping, which was always the most memorable part of the song for me. And of course it's the one track everyone says the game got right.
>>
XY had the most bland music.
>>
>>33296833
Xy or frlg
>>
Xy, but I like gym and e4 theme for some odd reason
>>
FRLG's soundfont was vomit-inducing.

>>33296833
in terms of memorably or soundfont? because XY has the most forgettable soundtrack in the entire series while gen 3 and gen 4 suffer with some bad compressed soundfonts despite great arrangements.
