Pokémon Emerald OST - Battle! Frontier Brain Extended

[@NeoArashi]

My experience in the battle frontier: -Never reached Anabel -Never reached Mason -Never reached Noland -Barely managed to get Greta's silver symbol (won by referee decision) -Completely destroyed Lucy, but never reached her second fight -Got publicly humiliated by Tucker -Got scolded by Brandon for not having the spirit or something because I walk in the battle with 1 pokemon with 3 HP left and he begins with fucking Regirock. Yet , I still had fun.

[@R.A.W-X7]

And that's what matters!

[@IschmarVI]

well, back in the day I at least managed to get all silver symbols (and I kinda sucked at battle facilities back then) but never managed to get a golden one. Still, I was having a blast for sure. Sweet, sweet memories.

[@kaizoku8087]

Omg what happened with Tucker? :v

[@F1areon]

I only got up to Lucy and I got stomped. I ran into Brandon ONCE but not enough for it to trigger his fight.

[@nameundisclosed8667]

I beat Greta with ease on the silver symbol but my save file just HAD to die out before I reached her second. And I had a complete Pokedex and everything, all 386 Pokemon thanks to trades with RS/FRLG and cloning event Pokemon. I also won Noland's silver symbol and beat the silver symbol on Pt and SS as well. I lost horribly against Lucy because I thought Blast Burn, Hydro Cannon and Frenzy Plant were "cool" (I was 13 when the game first came out).

[@billiezeiszler608]

This is one of my favorite battle themes in the entire series.

[@Gabowsk]

Oh, yeah, the Courage Symbol is fitting because if you think your Pokémon can beat his Regis, you're out of your mind.

[@butteredsalmonella]

Rhydon easily beats the Birds and Reversal Heracross beats the Regis lol

[@Kyuzeth]

Nothing that planning can't overcome. You just need the right team and know what you're up against.

[@PoipoleBoi]

Solod brandon with my boi Jelly, just need to be the three birds now lol

[@crist-roayt]

Consíguete unas cosas llamadas "tipo Lucha y tierra" y ya con 2 Pokémon competentes de esos tipos ya lo tienes xd es más difícil llegar allí

[@aminakhan703]

The regis are all weak to fighting. So if you have a solid fighting-type with you, his regis aren't that hard.

[@manianiasinenie1095]

i love how this theme is the absolute peak of this game. It's literally the last challenge. One step before the end. This theme portraits that feeling perfectly. on the other hand... I ONLY GOT ONE MEDAL, THE BATTLE FACTORY ONE GRRRRRR

[@NeoArashi]

Only ever got the Arena and Pike Silver symbol. And for the Arena, I won by Referee decision, so it wasn't even a real victory.

[@aminakhan703]

I got all the silvers, and I did it with mostly low-tier Pokemon too. But past that it gets totally rigged.

[@LuznoLindo]

I really does give off that feeling, like the Frontier Brains truly are a cut above even Steven Stone.

[@Box_Art_Goon]

The fact that the main theme is just the battle frontier theme is fantastic. Makes this one of my favorite pieces in the franchise.

[@ShadowtheYouTuber523]

I agree

So true Lovely Comment.

[@jamespeterson4275]

Idk mate I think the entire piece is massive fucking nostalgia

[@toxicwasteman]

No Pokémon post game has come close to how GameFreak designed Emerald. Nowadays, the Battle Frontier would be a half assed DLC.

[@DimL.]

The theme of pain

[@jordywatson1179]

I love this theme it's great

[@razielette2159]

I swear that entei

[@IschmarVI]

its more like the theme that plays at the end of pain .... but sometimes it turns out to be just the beginning of even more pain ...

[@batz7517]

The theme of brain

[@flatziswashed]

there will never be a pokemon game as good as emerald

[@naturalcauses6193]

The peak was Gens 3-5, then there was a fall off imo

[@therealmichirukaiou]

@@naturalcauses61933-6. XY and ORAS are some of the best in the series, no matter what people say.

[@mentalexwar]

EVER.. hgss and platinum are close I guess

[@PoipoleBoi]

​@@mentalexwarthe more I look back platinum is def overlooked and def worthy of s tier

[@AtillaTheFun1337]

@@naturalcauses6193I couldn’t agree more!

[@anixkyuun3357]

On my current playthrough of Emerald, I managed to get all the Silver Symbols, but trying to get the Gold Symbols is even harder, and the creators themselves stated that the npc difficulty will automatically increase the further you get in your challenge.

[@breloompauncher5593]

The game adds IVs to enemy Pokémon after every "Set". In Set 1 they have straight 0s across the board. So in that set you are statistically facing the weakest version of any Pokémon you could possibly face. The game adds roughly 5 IVs for each concurrent set(Depending on the facility) so by your Silver Symbol Brain match for most facilities, you'll be facing 15 IV Pokémon. Which equates to about half strength. By your Gold Symbol set it's 31's across the board or Perfect IVs. For reference, the only main game trainers that have perfect IVs are Red and Cynthia in Gen 4. And the Boss rematches in BDSP. That's why they say you're Pokémon need to be at least EV trained or at Level 100 they could potentially have a 31-point stat advantage over you in every stat. Also there's a glitch the Trainer Progression for the Battle Factory is actually dependent on your progress in the Battle Tower. So if you get your Gold Symbol from Anabel first you make the factory next to impossible unless you break you streak at the tower. The reason it's so hard is that in the battle factory your Pokémon rely on the IV progression system as well

[@mentalexwar]

@@breloompauncher5593not to mention the AI of the trainers you face are insaneeeee, I’ve had an 100 + battle tower in and I’ve seen teams straight up designed to wipe your team out

I think we can all agree the frontier brain in the dojo be cheatin

the theme of blood, sweat, and pure frustration

[@crist-roayt]

Sere honesto, con mas de 14 años jugando la saga... Se que tengo la los conocimientos y la habilidad necesaria para triunfar en este frente batalla... Pero el tiempo que hay que meterle es una santa *Lo-cu-ra* ... Fácilmente mas de 130 horas xd Tal vez algun dia lo intente de verdad, yo sigo disfruntado de Pokémon a mi manera y ritmo, con Hack de dificultad algo las elevada y los random jejeje xd mi respeto a quienes superen este desafío

I Miss Emerald so much! What they did to ORAS battle frontier was unforgivable! 🥺

[@Dusk1991]

Don't forget BDSP. 90% of the Platinum content was such a huge missed opportunity. Respectfully, Legends of Arceus doesn't make up for it.

[@truearea53]

@@Dusk1991 Yeah your right. BDSP sucked beyond all reason and it’s worse than ORAS.

[@DrSabineVT]

But that Remix for the Battle Masion leaders tho... fucking Orgasmic. Never thought this song could be made better by adding a simple drum kit loop and a miniscule amount of Electric guitar but by God does it just Hit Differently

[@JoshTrager-j9g]

Legends: Arceus is a really good game though, and to be fair it's doing something very different than what DP did anyway​@@Dusk1991

@@JoshTrager-j9g Speak what you want. It's your opinion and I respect that. I just said mine.

[@hyperx2003]

Tbh, i find some random npcs you have to fight in the frontier harder and annoying than the frontier brains themself. Yet, i find the battle really fun, probably because of the music or idk.

[@ResurrectedElvenMonk]

Every single Pokémon game I used to own last year before September. Yellow, Red, Blue 2x, Japanese Green, Japanese Red, Japanese Yellow, Emerald x3, Sapphire x8 Ruby x5 Stadium, Stadium II x3, Colosseum, XD Gale of Darkness (Most Expensive), Pokémon Snap, Pokémon Puzzle League, Pokémon Gold x2, Pokémon Crystal x2 (My favorite), andPpokemon Silver 2x. All lost in my storage over 50$ my family didn't want to help me with. Had a display case for the too. 😭

[@maxdoles5806]

The difficulty of gen 4's battle frontier was an absolute joke compared to this one.

Bro right 😂😂😂 emerald made it so intense for no damn reason

[@IceWallowCome2.0]

This is champion theme material imo. Or you could make this emerald Steven's theme and it would be a good fit. It's still great for battle frontier though.

[@yakmilch]

it fits the frontier brains better than any regular trainer - even if its steven or red - because you fight them on even ground - even levels, same amount of pokemon.

[@Grazzzzzel]

might be the best of all time, even though it’s 20 years(!!!) old

[@ErstonLMFAO]

Heracross with perfect IVs

[@aaa-bm1fv]

Only pokemon game i fear the most , over any soul game.......

[@kaizoku8087]

Soul game? You mean BN4 & BN5? Those were the REAL soul games..yugioh was too

[@LakePlacidBear]

My personal experience is that i was like into the 25th of the tower battle and here comes this youngster Joel who managed to crit me every single turn and killed my entire team with a scyther. bro, I swear to god emerald battle frontier is the closest thing that a pokemon games can be compared to a soul game, ever. I believe that they removed the pyramid and pike in future games because it’s just bullshittery. having skill and knowledge ain’t enough. even with a team of 6V pokemon you still need luck to win some of the matches.
