When I think Elite 4, I think Hoenn. It really set the stage for a climactic struggle to the champion. It's opening is intimidating, the strings going up and down add a chaotic feel to it, but when the clapping part comes, it feels hopeful. It's really just the perfect theme.

What do you mean by having "an Elite Four again"?

[@LoudWaffle]

@@urielhernandez4319 I liked Alola's E4, I don't think the fact that their roles were new negatively impacted them. And they had just as much, if not more establishment in the plot before you fight them in that role than the Paldean E4 (even the golfer girl gets foreshadowed if you talk to NPCs in the resort).

[@urielhernandez4319]

@@LoudWaffle Oh I agree on it being a good E4, but the Alola league isn’t formed until like half way through your journey, so unlike other regions where the E4 has been a status of power for years.. Alola just selected specific people for their current roles instead of holding some kind of trial to determine who would be the E4. And that made the League so easy to beat because at that point you counter every single one of the members except the Golfer but flying types are naturally easy to counter

[@Diembee]

The Paldean League in general was a bag of stress; between the interview and the battlefield straight out of “The Cube”, I think the theme here was a perfect fit.

The original elite four music is so good.

When I was little and I played black for the first time I thought it was game over if you lose to N. I thought there’d be an alternate ending where you had to release all your Pokémon. Alder asks you to take the light stone and you’ll battle N if N defeats Alder. If you push no then he says “so you’re just going to let N separate pokemon from people?” I lost to Ghetsis so many times so when I beat the game I checked if all my Pokémon were still there. 😂😂😂😂
