DPPt Route 228 (Re-Orchestrated)

[@adryy8]

I remember listening to this for the first time, a year or so after I started following this channel, back when I was a kid in high School, now I'm almost a fully functionnal adult and your music, especially this one which is still my favourite after all these years, helped a lot with that. I remember the time when you and glitch were promoting each other channels, when you promoted a small youtuber named mewmore, which led into discovering even more remixers, you were my entry into this whole pokemon music remix scene, and those themes are with me everyday, so thanks Rusty

*slow claps while crying* such memories DPPT Were my first video games (specifically diamond)

[@Mr_SU]

I started with diamond version too! I'm doing a nuzlocke challenge of it right now!

[@TheNutshaq]

I'm doing a platinum nuzlock!

[@GArikoitz98]

Oh my diamond was my first game too, i choose pinplup i still have my empoelon in X *o* such memories..

[@TheNutshaq]

I still have my Infernape. I use it competitivly despite the fact everyone says "Infernape sucks" with much more vulgar language

[@Mr_SU]

Ethan Hayden Infernape is still a great pokemon competitively, it has great base speed it's moveset is diverse and it has alot of different ways to use it, whoever says infernape is a bad pokemon doesn't know anything about competitive battleing.

[@HeavenhoundVII]

I remember downloading the Route 228 theme, and listening to it, I remembered how completely in love with it I am. So, I thought "I wonder if HappyDragonite re-orchestrated it..."

[@paulting346]

wow that riff at the end, one the best things about the entire song, the rest of the piano riff is also equally as good. Good job mate!! (yes im australian)

[@therealseanw.stewart2071]

Love it, love it, LOOOOVE IT!!

[@SiberianHuskyF1]

Favourite? Mmmmaaxie of Tea--- no, I'm not doing that. Giovanni's mysterious past makes me want to know more about him. And he's always fabulous in the anime. My least favourite would be the leader of Team Flame, since they approved those gawdawful uniforms. Great mix, as always!

[@deepfriedcats3041]

i found this music while i was listing to the D/P/Pt soundtrack and i loved it i had never heard it before because i never finished the regional pokedex in Pt so i never got there i was stuck in the battle area this is the best music eva!!!

[@Lattie9001]

The Team rocket in the manga Pokemon Special Adventure is pretty badass, it's a well constructed mafia-like organization and cruel as can be. Nothing like the team rocket of the cartoon. Also this tune was my favorite of the game so thank you, a lot.

[@a.humphrey9640]

I love how you used the nigh time theme for route 228 in the background. It another an incredible layer of depth to the song, and goes surprisingly well with the daytime theme.

[@awesomeariados6501]

Anthony Humphrey The night theme was actually the backing track to the day theme. It took me a while to notice, though. For the nighttime version, they removed the main melody you hear during the day, and transposed it down (like they did with most night themes).

[@animesmontagens]

Someone tell me what's the reference of that image? Is so preety

[@sumi-tunes]

My guess is that he's a random NPC trainer who lost a battle against the protagonist

[@cope356]

Havel the Rock would be proud, you know what Ima do a dark 3 vid using nothing but rock like weapons.

[@DustyMusician]

Team Galactic as a whole didn't know what the hell they were doing. They nuked a lake, so that makes them pretty darn cool...but only Cyrus and the commanders could exactly piece together what Cyrus was trying to have Team Galactic accomplish. I still have to wonder, was Cyrus using Palkia and Dialga to create a world without Mespirit, Uxie, and Azelf? Or...

[@bombueno_]

Im geussing that he was using the trios gems to awaken Dialga and Palkia, in which later he would use them to create his new world with the two. I dont think it was stated that he wanted a world without the trio, more likely a world to his liking.

[@DustyMusician]

Zaharie-sama He does say he wants a world without emotion, and the Lake Trio is the Pokemon embodiment of emotion, so it may be possible that he wanted to harness their power and then be rid of them.

[@bombueno_]

Dusty Chan ah yea, forgot about that. im just here waiting for a diamond/pearl remake without a life . i mean, the way Cyrus left off could lead to him coming back and trying again. the music was so snazzy and it would be awesome to see how the modern look and jazzy feel of the game would look in the 3ds format

[@DustyMusician]

Zaharie-sama If they do remake it, the Old Chateau should become story relevant (or at least a bigger sidequest).

[@bombueno_]

Dusty Chan i was pretty sad about how the old chateau didnt do much in the story line rotom is ok, but not really great its mostly the only reason people would visit the old chateau

[@user-ki1tb6we3k]

Why is the guy crying

[@adamcarrillo209]

Due to the awesomeness of the track.

[@Darknessore11]

This is pretty awesome :)

[@XxShadowGiratinaxX]

I'm pretty much listening to this while i'm doing my homework! :D

[@chocopanda1364]

I love this theme!

[@HappyDragonite]

*not a cover--a reorchestration. A cover is a live playing of an instrument, and a reorchestration is either a reorchestrated score played by a live symphony, or a reorchestrated score from a synthetic symphony, which is what I use. Try again tomorrow. The bandwidth resets every month, so it should be downloadable in 24 hours. It's a month-to-month thing, so in future if that ever happens just know it'll be downloadable by the first of the month after whichever month you're in.

[@OneSkyAndDestiny]

I'm sorry! >~< I'll definitely get my terms right the next time! Thanks! Ahh, I will definitely check tomorrow. :3 Thanks for the wonderful reorchestrations! :D

[@greenhat8978]

DAT MUSICAL SWAG

[@Pillyam]

Here's one of the reasons why pokémon platinum is awesome: JAZZ MUSIC Nice re-orchestration :)

[@LEGOWillMattAnimations]

I wish I played platinum (and heart gold) in 2009 instead of 2014 :'( I was the kind of guy who hyper-actively made fun of pokemon when it was big in my school (I think it was year 4 - 5) I was about 6 when platinum came out and I recognised alot of sinnoh pokemon but when black & white came out everyone was collecting cards and stuff but I just thought it was dumb, I has a ds lite aswell! I could have easily played it. I remeber Emboar & Samurott being da shit (which probably angers all genwunners). However being about 1 - 2 years now since I have played HeartGold, Platinum, White 2 and Omega Ruby I am in love with the franchise and am already slightly nostalgic! Can't wait for Sun and Moon!

[@chocopanda1364]

WillMatt Animations Guess what Boi? Sun and moon came out last year! I bet you are playing it right now, but Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon came out!

[@TheGameHideout]

I find it amazing that a person can possess such a gift that you have Happy!!!

[@jebchrisman9541]

The only reason Steelix is giving the guy shade is because it wants to listen to the music

[@ChillSyl11]

Your new layout and intro is so cute and awesome!!!!!

[@cozy_king23]

It really brings out the noirish essence of DPP

[@thestupidgenius55]

Team Plasma, basically for N, who might be my favourite Nintendo villain in general. He comes off as a very skilled opponent, making him intimidating, but also has sympathetic characteristics.

[@TheFalconmage4]

Favorite villain was Cyrus hands down just because of his voice in the anime. Funniest thing ever and you need to re-orchestrate Violet City from GSC!

[@NightMourningDove]

This competes with route 209 in terms of its sheer awesomeness. This music would come in my head every now and then likely because it was so damn memorable...

[@AdAstraGL]

Too much reverb... I can't listen clearly to all the instruments... after 1.45 the piano track is no longer in sync... :\ By the way, nice.

[@DutchKroket]

Team Aqua has to be my favorite, A world with only water sure sounds epic and scary!

[@darrintuckerjr4075]

This is awesome to listen to. Great work!

[@Jaccobtw]

This music is sexy.

[@mattshnoop]

You HAVE to do Route 209! Best theme from my childhood

[@TheAsianShadow100]

My favorite villain would definitely be Cyrus (Platinum-only). He had the most thought-out plan (and would've gotten away with it too if it weren't for that out-of-nowhere meddling Giratina), and his backstory made me feel so bad for him I couldn't help but almost empathize with him for going this far. I like to think the reason why he lost all his emotions is because he had an encounter with Mesprit that went wrong, which can also justify his "revenge" speech at the beginning of the game.

[@thecamerakingshaf]

Favourite villain is Cyrus because his ideals are worthy of understanding. If only we did live in a perfect world... But on a lighter note: I love this swanky song

[@openmindeddragontree]

This is really good man.I have evolved into a HappyDragonite.

[@Red_Shades]

Still the best re-orchestration of this Song.

[@thestupidgenius55]

Just found your channel yesterday. For a second there I was worried you'd have these design overhauls daily. :P

[@finnfinn62]

I imagine this in a sort of classy 30s concert, it just fits it perfectly.

[@aceblade10]

Team Aqua / Magma : First of all, Ruby was my first pokemon game so kinda biased here. I felt that the war between two Groups and you in between it all was a fun way of multitasking trying to save both sides of the world. Not to mention that they both had very good stories that kept me entertained with sympothy for them. I remember thinking "Why do i need to fight them, there doing what they feel is right, who am i to interfere". Plus, Aqua: I love the ocean. Magma: Look at there outfits!

[@ASockYouLost]

I really liked Cyrus. He indeed had a very interesting idea on creating a new world. My least favorite would be Maxie/Archie. I never understood why they wanted more land/water.

[@HappyDragonite]

Thanks, Ryan! :)

[@irllka]

When I say I have cried listening to this

[@gcc123lover]

Team aqua. One: Archie is pretty hot, I'm not going to lie. And two: the rivalry with team magma was a nice change to the pokemon series! :)

[@therealseanw.stewart2071]

That description, though...XD

[@HappyDragonite]

I disliked a like of a dislike of my comment which had a like before I disliked the like.

I wanna meet the person who can say this five times fast.

@@lowinlofi haha!

[@briandang502]

such 228 very jazz wow

[@jv.6384]

That guy crying always gets me... :/ Anyway, great theme. But why he's crying?

[@HappyDragonite]

Comment Question: Who is your favourite / least favourite big bad of the villainous teams in the Pokémon World?

[@jDmPttagyndtnpatd]

I love this

[@JAStudiosDankestManLiv]

Wait I thought this sounded like. 80s rock song????

[@animesmontagens]

Alguém me explica qual a referência dessa imagem que aparece no fundo desse vídeo? Achei tão expressiva e bonita.

[@bookiegeek]

Bravo Dude! Encore! Encore!

[@EeveePrincessXD]

Nice avatar!

[@MoraToetjee]

I love how G4 wass all about JAZZ

[@tomiliou]

Not entirely sure what my favorite and least favorite would be, but can I just comment on the fact that Team Aqua tried to expand the ocean by making it rain. Maybe there should be school in the pokemon universe, so that people can learn the water cycle.

[@TheViolaBuddy]

Nobunaga (Pokémon Conquest) is definitely the coolest antagonist in my opinion, though I guess he's not really a villainous team (unless you count his army as a villainous team). Conversely, Cipher (Pokémon Colosseum/XD) is my favorite team as a whole, but neither Evice nor Greevil is all that great. As for least favorite, I'm not quite sure - all the villains are cool in their own right.

[@totalboss4444]

Maxie/ Archie was my favorite because their music/ cool looking teams and Cyrus was my least because his team was all bowl cuts and just hard to look at in general.

[@TheAsianShadow100]

Giovanni gave up after 3 or 4, actually. Three losses against Red, and one against Gold in the Celebi Event in HG/SS. But blame that on one of his flaws--while he's way into the whole take-over-the-world-and-make-a-huge-profit thing with Team Rocket, he's way more obsessed with being the strongest Trainer and capturing strong Pokémon. Losing to two kids after training alone for years broke him for a while until he decided to get over it and join the PWT to test his new strength some years later.

[@saulobros]

I never liked the music of Sinnoh, but this orchestrated song ....is just beautiful!

[@marioshine2447]

+saulo andre perez sandoval But why? Sinnoh has the best soundtrack !!

[@PlazmaErnie]

Cyrus is my favorite cuz hi plan was awesome!!! i wish i could have agreed to him?

[@sktforce110]

Favorite villain Cryus because he wanted to be god and strike fear into the world because he is a man with no emotions so he wouldn't care if he killed his mother to have power like God and that is why he is my favorite villain in pokemon.Ps I don't have a least favorite

[@KHMadOsc]

Oh please HappyDragonite... Eterna City/Celestic Town re:orchestrated.... PLEASE :)

[@TheAsianShadow100]

We hardly know anything about Team Flare other than the Grunts' appearance and I guess their possible motives. A lot of people bashed on Team Plasma before Black and White came out, and look what happened when it did--nearly everyone loved them because they were so much more underneath in what they showed with their stories and actions. Maybe Team Flare will be the same. Even then, though, the Team I still see bashed on for their outfits no matter what, is Team Galactic. Poor Cyrus.

[@tristanneal9552]

If the remakes sound anywhere close to your pieces I will be a very happy trainer.

[@360Flicks]

This is going to be quite an unusual request...but could you do a re-orchestration of DPPt Route 205? Would be awesome if this happens XD

[@TheAsianShadow100]

Team Plasma's motives weren't at al ridiculous. They just wanted to take over Unova. Like what Team Rocket wanted to do with Kanto and Johto for money, only in the first B/W they were smarter about it and posed as a PETA-ish group to keep their crimes more of a secret. In B2/W2 they went full Team Rocket and just wanted to fuck shit up. Only...with a pirate ship. With a freeze ray. I still give them props on being the first team to actually capture and control a Legendary, though.

[@TheAsianShadow100]

My least villain(s), though, would have to Archie and Maxie. While I still like the Team rivalry and how the story played it out and how I fight both of them in Emerald, their goals were completely stupid to me and made no sense, even if they WERE able to succeed. Especially Archie's. Maxie's makes a bit more sense bit that doesn't change much. Also, they stole the wrong Orbs. I mean, for people who've been researching this shit for years, you think they wouldn't have messed up that badly xD

[@aceblade10]

Oh, but N is my favorite Pokemon character of all time!

[@Kiphozei]

I'm trying to decide whether Cyrus or Ghetsis is my favorite villain. Cyrus didn't manipulate or (attempt to) kill children, but Ghetsis didn't RIP A HOLE IN THE DAMN UNIVEEEEEERSE I'll call it a draw. They can duke it out with fists later. Worst villainous team leader? I'd say Giovanni since he gives up after losing one battle, but the guy gets bonus points for nearly vaporizing Mewtwo's soul. Whoop, looks like Archie's motives are Dunsparce - cute, but you're not winning with that thing.

[@KeanoReplay]

Classy

[@HappyDragonite]

Blame everything on Cyrus.

[@FerociousLinoone]

My favourite villainous team is Cipher. I know it sounds hipster to go for something so unorthodox, but they came really close to realising their goal! Team Rocket aren't quite as ambitious; Team Magma, Aqua and Galactic were all doomed from the start with the inevitable intervention of legendary Pokémon; and Team Plasma, in both incarnations, was run by Ghetsis who pulled the strings from behind the scenes, and sadly, he can't make rational decisions because he's completely insane.

[@r2dk594]

interesting I like the song very cool and my favorite team would be magma and aqua and least is galactic or plasma in bw not bw2 because of how they play in the story much better in that game. Also have high hopes for the new team Flare in gen 6

[@TsunDelicious]

Do Unwavering emotions next

[@DachampsterStudios]

its a little busy, but not bad

[@OneSkyAndDestiny]

I'm really late in catching up with your covers. ;-; So I've tried to download this amazing cover but it says that your out of bandwidth. :( Is there anyway you could reupload this wonderful piece?

[@Lattie9001]

It's been a week since the download is soon! What is happening?

[@finnfinn62]

Johto because of the art style, can someone describe this route to me? I just can't remember it.

[@camred123]

My favourite is Team Rocket :D

[@andrewgentile1931]

Favorite's Cyrus. Least is Archie/Maxie

[@PotatoMinun]

By any chance, do you have the score for this? It would be cool to play this with my friends.

[@EeveePrincessXD]

Does Gengar of Team Meanies count?

[@TheRebirth98]

so much reverb

[@TsunDelicious]

MAxie or Archie can't decide :/

[@cvc700]

Can we use your music in youtube vids if we reference you?

[@TheNutshaq]

It sounds like the trumpets are muted. If they are, what kind of mute did you use

[@HappyDragonite]

I don't really understand what you mean...if you clarified your question a bit more I may be able to provide an answer, but I don't think the brass is muted at all so it may just be your headphones or if you're using speakers it would most certainly not sound as crisp.

[@bulbasuar17]

HappyDragonite I believe he is referring to using an actual mute (straight mute, cup mute, harmon mute, plunger, etc)

[@TheNutshaq]

bulbasuar17 YES! I was thinking how to describe what I meant and you did it for me. You are one amazing person

[@bulbasuar17]

Ethan Hayden Why thank you :) I'm just enjoying the music. HappyDragonite This is quite an amazing version!

[@Will_0700]

Eli Frost what is the name of the game?

[@moomoo2mw]

my favorite is giovanni. because his intentions werent over the top. he didnt want to be a god. he didnt want to rule the world. he didnt have a boner over the sea or land. he just wanted some cash

[@dracocrash1]

i disliked ur comment :D

[@masteretainturmakan]

I don't like Team Galactic or Team Plasma, simply because their goals were just simply unattainable.

[@HappyDragonite]

This video sucks, HappyDragonite. You're a loser and you have really bad hair get a life dork.

[@Krazzy10toad1]

My favorite is a tie between Giovanni and the rivalry between Aqua and Magma. I say Giovanni because of his history. The fact the he is a Gym Leader, Head of Team Rocket, Father of Silver e
