Battle! Vs. Team Vitreus Grunt [Pokémon Azurite OST]

Four years have passed, and as the power of Team Vitreus grows, they call for a remastered grunt theme!
Support Pokemon Azurite! It's a long process and they're always in need of help, so any help is appreciated!

This is what team flare what’ve looked like if it were actually good. Well done 👍🏻

[@aslightlysavageburrito8217]

The Vitreous leitmotif is so, so, so good. Like, actually main-series-game-good. I've always thought the leitmotif is the best part of villainous teams' soundtracks, because it's such a fantastic way to characterise them. I especially love the way this one fits in the chord progression. Superb stuff!

[@paws9248]

“Grunts of perfection” How fitting. Taen came from the perfectionist cult.

[@pit2643]

Yea, you already know the drill with how Taen is part of Team Vitreus, and that the Vitreus Elite Four even wears similarly colored clothing to him... That being said, in case you get confused, Taej won't be the actual Leader of Team Vitreus

[@riktorheverez1068]

[@Letgoit2]

@@riktorheverez1068 how can he ba leader to a enemy team he had to apply to and get accepted into? Only if u would assume he fought his way to being the leader but Tean had never the attitude to be in a Leader Role.(at least thats how i see it)

Is this a national dex joke before the national dex was cut???

[@VoidHearted]

why is that?

[@marcovalencia146]

Ok for a sec I thought the grunts were holding up their middle fingers because the V partially covered their fingers xd

[@Scorpeon_27]

Same

[@VoidHearted]

I mean in Galar it probably means the same thing

[@AltanStray]

In the UK that gesture means the exact same thing, so they're still telling everyone to eff off either way!

[@Hunter-ze3my]

FUN FACT: among the various Latin translations for the word "Virtreus" they seem to follow a glass/crystal theme, and what is the name of the game made of? Crystals.

[@fizork4782]

Not to mention crystal forms are a main thing in the game

[@VanilluxePavilion]

This is awesome! Great job Sushi! Love all the syncopations and motif choices! Makes me want to make themes again.

[@EternalSushiMusic]

VanilluxePavilion you should get back to it! Thank you for your comment

[@StarStruckSolace]

This legitimately sounds like it's from an ost. The others sounded like remixes but this us officially great material! Great job!

[@ZR3009]

I imagine that if you beat the grunts, they would immediately leave Vitreus because they do not tolerate imperfection.

[@Hide____]

That would actually be hilarious, but I don’t think they will go that far

[@fsfreturns5242]

Shoutout to that one Vitreus Grunt who will actively try to lose to the player to restore their win/lose ratio to a perfect balance of 1:1 instead of 1 win and 0 loss

[@trainerflowey2729]

Right, these guys must have a Silvally somewhere. I just know it.

[@kyuafinale]

Basically team vitreus is the perfection cult

[@rootbeerguy690]

I personally think the old grunt theme should be used as the encounter theme

[@Paddy656]

You've just made the best team theme out there. it's just... the best one. You've set the bar too high.

[@axelltheswampert7553]

Wow it's so intense... I like it!

[@skyshelix4440]

Theres always those grunts in every video game saying they only joined the evil team for the epic costumes...not gonna lie, id be that guy for this team. Those outfits be looking kinda FIRE

I can hear part of the taen remix in this :D

This is a really amazing song. But I was shocked to find out that this game called Terra Monsters 3d has a battle theme that sounds just exactly like this(old version to be precise). Did you know anything about this?

[@null1753]

finally someone who knows terra monsters 3

[@mr_unknownguy528]

Terra monsters 3 got taken off the google play store. I mean it was a good game tho

[@null1753]

oh well rip my skorupi

Well it was an illegal mobile game, the not as good equivalent to something like Azurite, Uranium, or Insurgence.

[@CaptainObliviousV]

Is Taen the leader of team Vitrius? I remember towards the end of Insurgence, that he told *insert leader name here cuz I don’t want to spoil it any further* he got an offer to join team Vitrius.

[@teacup7738]

No I don't think so because if he were the leader that would mean he would have to fight all the other admin members.

[@Taiolu]

Wait, Azurite still lives?

Amazing! I love this theme and your work

[@sute4218]

I really love this masterpiece

[@dillonx719]

"Grunts of Perfection"? You know who else is affiliated with perfection? *Taen.* My speculation is that he's the leader. Even in the theme for his remix, the Vitreus logo is in the background. [EDIT]: I was wrong after looking over the website about the leader speculation, but perhaps he's some sort of second in command, like the Vitreus Child? I mean, it's said he's a "disciple", perhaps to the leader I assume. (if you don't know who Taen is, he's a character from another amazing Pokemon fangame, Pokemon Insurgence.)

[@bhamber2641]

cryy xd In Insurgence Taen joins team vitreous. I don't think he's the leader

[@uncroissant6416]

I don't think so, it says on the official website : Taen perfection disciple www.projectazurite.com/team-vitreus besides Emdasche (the youtube that made the team vitreus admin theme) said this in the description of his video : "Sushi and I decided to have the admin theme be more on the exciting side than something truly evil, which we'll save for the leader theme." so I guess the leader is still unknown...

[@apopan4185]

Is that Grunts of perfection referring to Pokemon Inusrgence?

[@paws9248]

No. Its not a cult anymore, this is a team. I dont know what team, but Taen (an admin of the perfectionist cult) is in this game and hes part of this team. So they are probably after the same thing.

[@C7007]

Fantastic !

[@exeledusprince9165]

I remember finding you by listening to another youtuber's music, where you were a regular. Since then, you've more than surpassed this person, as of late their music shows no restraint and make my ears hurt. You've improved so much, keep up the great work!

[@EternalSushiMusic]

Richard Welch out of curiosity - who is this other person?

[@exeledusprince9165]

EternalSushi well, I don't really remember what they go by now, but when I listened to their stuff regularly, they went by "electricmudkip". I don't want anyone to take that the wrong way; I'm sure they put their all into what they produce, but there's no denying a Change in their style that me and others cannot stomach as easily.

[@EternalSushiMusic]

Richard Welch Emdasche is what he goes by now. And that's understandable! I'm sure he doesn't take it that way. It's just a stylistic preference. He was one of my biggest influence of the time. Thanks for your support though!

[@winterohlson9432]

I haven’t played Pokémon Azurite, but knowing Kalos is based off of France, Johto is based off of China, team Vitreous looks like it would take place in Brazil/South American based on the facial look and how the hair is reminiscent of the Carnivale hair feathers.

[@Tenhys]

_"Johto is based off of China"_ What ? No. That's factually false ; all the regions of the four generations, from 1 to 4, are direct geographical representation of actual Japon. Kanto is inspired of the region of Kanto (litteraly) ; Johto from the regions of Kansai & Chubu ; Hoenn is inspired from Kyushu and, finally, Sinnoh from Hokkaido. But no China.

[@winterohlson9432]

Tenhys oh thanks

[@Efeagah94]

I'm brazilian... and your thinking is nonsense LOL

[@WaterKirby1994]

@@Tenhys I thought West Kanto (Pallet Town, Viridian City, & Pewter City) were also parts of Chubu. Even though Kanto is essentially Tokyo in the real world, the Kanto of Pokemon never felt that impressive. Theory PokeEarth of the games & manga is a dystopian Earth seems legit. I mean Tokyo is supposed to be huge & prosperous yet Kanto of Pokemon portrays its cities as small & plagued with problems.

[@TheLycanDragon]

Nice!

[@shadowdashninjagd5076]

My thoughts: This could have worked as a Vitreus Boss theme, maybe, if it were slowed down a bit. The original Grunt theme is more in alignment with the E4 and Elite Grunt theme. This theme, with its completely different style, might be perfect for the Vitreus Leader. That's just my thoughts, don't hate me.

[@alexipanda9505]

That was AWESOOOME!

I honestly think this makes them sound too competent

[@garrethavery4313]

[@mnchino]

This is a late comment but I believe the guitars are not quite the right lead and detract from what the theme used to be

[@DeadJack1999]

Hope they keep the admin theme. Its nostalgic at this point.

[@paws9248]

You mean for bosses like taen from insurgence? There are still hints of that song in this game. Look at the taen battle song.

[@DeadJack1999]

NO the one from 2014 on emdasche channel

[@shadowdashninjagd5076]

Don't worry, they're keeping the Admin theme.

[@arinwolfe4853]

Is this official? I like it but you're probably going to have to remaster the other themes now to fit if it is.

[@EternalSushiMusic]

Official! The other themes like admit themes are remixes from other people. This is just me updating the main theme

[@phillipwhitfield7890]

I have a question regarding the grunts in this cool battle theme. What the heck is team Vitreus’s goal anyways? They going for the typical world domination or awaken legendary Pokémon scripts, or are these guys different from the other bad guy teams?

[@Paddy656]

They're the new cult of perfection. I think you can guess their goals.

[@hugh4537]

I'ma be real. This hardly fits with the admin theme. This sounds more like something that the Aether foundation would use, not as dark as it is probably meant to be. The chimes/bells at 0:39 are too silent also. Still, mostly good on it's own, but again the admin theme just blows it out of the water and the two have completely different genres at this point.
