MUSICIAN REACTS TO POKEMON MASTERS EX KALOS VILLAIN ARC THEMES!

[@wyattmcgahey3035]

Your reactions are great as always. Hope you get better.

[@greenscorpion64]

Fun fact about Malva's Theme here. If you listen closely to the notation, it uses a slower leitmotif of the Team Flare Grunt theme.

[@chickenman404]

Lysander lookin' FRESH!

[@Alpha-oo8]

They really pulled out the stops for this elite four

[@ahoyladies8520]

Man you’ve gotta check out some more Masters stuff, namely Rose’s theme, Galar Neo Champ theme, and Giovanni’s final battle is just 👌👌👌👌👌

[@catalyst539]

Another believes it should happen. Yes, I await the day that happens.

[@geodude4490]

I just found you I subbed

[@darkzero5140]

Malvas theme fits perfectly on a football team theme.

[@lrc3847]

*playing Captain Tsubasa Dream Team with that music*

[@autumnzephyr331]

Kalos had my least favorite E4 theme (out of the games where that isn't just the Gym Leader theme again), so I went into this Champion Arena kinda scared. Would this be Kanto-level quality, or closer to Alola? And then Wikstrom pulls out a freakin' harpsichord and Drasna forgoes the usual grand feel Dragon E4 members have in favor of the tribalistic drums! Kalos definitely wins the medal for Most Improved OST~ Lysandre's Decisive Battle, on the other hand, is kind of a letdown? It feels less like a climactic battle, and more like he's unleashing the grand invasion you've spent the last half of the game trying to stop, but were just a few moments too slow for. It's more climactic cutscene than climactic battle, at least to me.

[@TehFoamy]

I'm so glad someone agrees with me that Kalos's Elite Four theme was underwhelming, because I've seen so many people online saying "omg best e4 theme ever" while I'm just sitting there thinking it's so boring and repetitive. The Masters EX composers definitely gave it a much-needed upgrade (several upgrades, in fact)

[@MagillanicaLouM]

Nice. I'm glad my kalos wives malva and drasna got done justice

[@sephy004]

Wikstrom has the unique theme. Harpsichord was never used in any of the Elite Four themes in PMEX just like in Koga's flutes. That's why it's my favorite among the 4 Kalos Elite Themes

[@kiawegamer]

I totally agree with you, that make his theme very knightly, my man Wikstrom got justice!

[@typedullx]

Drasna's theme is SOOOO GOOOOD! Also, Lysandre's Decisive Battle was used for the title screen so yeah, not really a battle

[@Elizabeth-go4kv]

I love how Malva's also has a bit of a Team Flare vibe, especially at that note slide (sorry idk the proper term lol) at 3:48-3:49, it just reminds me of a part in Lysandre's original battle theme that I thought was a nice connection, as does the way the chords descend

[@MatthewCYN15]

Makes sense cause Malva works for Team Flare. 🔥

[@Elizabeth-go4kv]

@Matt_CYN gaming & vids Exactly, thats what I was getting at

[@Elizabeth-go4kv]

It adds a REALLY nice personal touch and background to the characters

[@dantegambone3460]

Kalos is for me the most beautiful region in design, art, leahue, characters... its so sad its a Baby-Game without that much of history and lore

[@blackglurakx2409]

Oh yeah and btw I just remembered. Where would you put these into the E4 Theme Tierlist?

[@gigifabulous]

I keep going between who my favorites are between Malva, Drasna and Siebold.

[@novemberninth4392]

Decisive Battle! Lysandre is great, but I feel like it's more suited for an encounter music _before_ the final battle instead of the _actual_ final battle.

[@Bread_0f_Box_V2]

Malva's theme is absolute fire.

[@AfreenSabah]

Late, but always love a Emily upload 💖💖💖

[@ChampionLawliet]

I love you ❤️ Oh yes, and your videos. But not as much as you.

[@resurrekt7114]

Love your reactions but I think you forgot the Kalos Champion Stadium theme

[@Suezcronos]

I think a fun way to further appreciate these elite four remixes are to listen to the original version first, then go back to these, this is what I did and it pumps up the enjoyment to over 9000!

[@sono1489]

I was at my low the other day, and this reaction video really made my day. Thank you so much and hope you feel better soon ^_^ I'm just curious how you would rank these E4 themes in the "Masters EX E4 themes ranking" video

[@EmmanuelKai25]

I havent play this week Kalos champion stadium, didnt know these theme songs were so good, loves it! 😁

[@TheHinner]

You have to listen to the Kalos' themes in the order they are battled in the game. Malva starts off very modern, Siebold's theme is very reminiscent of early 20th, late 19th century music, Wikstrom's is very knightly, very 17th-18th century and Drasna's is reminiscent of pre-catholic european cultures

[@MatthewCYN15]

Well Kalos is based in France, Europe 🇫🇷🔥💧🐲⚔️

[@iarmandov2]

I was waiting for this one!!!! If Drasna isn’t S tier I call “rigged!”

[@averysmalman8191]

This is the first Champion Stadium where I honestly cannot decide which ones I like best, they're all so good!

[@georgspielberger9780]

I agree they absolutely blast in their own way!

[@Cursed394]

When doing the pre-listen before the video was recorded i heard the little vocal part of Malva and was like "oh i can tell she's gonna love these"

[@aylencitasq4275]

haha i love your Reactions as Always!

[@blackglurakx2409]

Made my day with this. I really love these reactions. My ranking for the E4 themes would be Malva definitely best one and Siebold close behind, then Drasna and Wikstrom in last, but this time all are awesome.

[@dinogolfer]

I love what they've been doing with Elite 4 themes, adding a unique flair to each specific member's theme adds a LOT.

[@manupm9161]

Yeah, it's a shame they don't do that in the main games...

[@ethantran5679]

11:37 so is it the same amount of terrifying as Giovanni or a bit more/less

[@maisvousfumez-monsieur6882]

As a french i am also amused by the theme of the steel elite four guy

[@TechnoArpan]

I love all of them, Siebold's is personally my favorite. That piano at the part where it slows down especially gets me

[@johnwhittington2998]

Malvas theme is an absolute banger

[@hankpeterschmidt8626]

Trash compared to all other Kalos elite 4 tho

[@punamagarwal909]

Emily do you know that team rr is almost confirmed?

[@sb6196]

What do you mean?

[@Jojo41323]

Gen 6 may not be the best but people cant say they didnt do gen 6 elite 4 justice with these themes!! I hope you get better soon!!

[@Chillaccino1]

Why did they go so hard for what is disputably the worst Elite Four

[@TechnoArpan]

Because the characters were done dirty and deserve better

[@ejmongrove372]

Team wise they suck, character design wise they're my favorite

[@TechnoArpan]

@@ejmongrove372 same lol

[@hankpeterschmidt8626]

My hatred only targets Malva in this E4.

[@Chillaccino1]

Why the actual criminal (Malva) gets like an absolute rave on par with Galar Gym theme

[@johnwhittington2998]

Because she’s on FIRE!!!!! Hahahahahaha!

[@DisguisedWolfGaming]

I'm sick too atm haha! Glad you're reacting to them :)
