You can read the fuckin' manga too

[@PunYT]

Brandon/May is probably my favorite rival in the series. Instead of being cold/callous/edgy, they're your best friend. They just wanna help you out and get strong. This song proves it's really just "Let's see how good we've gotten! Just for fun!" and your rival DOES heal up your pokemon, which tends ot help if you've swept them with the last living pokemon on your team from an instance that decimated your team beforehand. So there's that. Admittedly, i got scared when May wanted me to fight her after becoming champion, thinking I had to sweep her with my Kyogre, my last pokemon, but I learned all six pokemon were at full health, and I was relieved.

[@thateuphonistinthecorner5846]

Love this theme. The contrast between the intensity of this theme and their easygoing nature outside of battle makes me feel like the battle really brings out our hidden emotions.

[@AlexRK595]

I actually cried when I listened to this. To me, this theme symbolizes much more than a battle. I was 10 when ORAS released, I played it after I got a copy of Omega Ruby, (I also got Alpha Sapphire), and I played it all throughout 2015. I remember this was my theme of choice in online battles and in the Battle Maison. 2015 was such a good time, I was just a kid, played this game with my friends last period on Fridays during the school week, and my childhood was great. To think now it is 2024, both my maternal grandparents passed, and my childhood pet, and in 2015, all of them were healthy as healthy. This theme is amazing. Amazing.

[@TheRytherrShow]

I love this game. I freaking love it. I thought everyone was giving it high ratings just out of nostalgia, but no. I was wrong about that. I had never played any gen 3 games before this one, but I loved it. Not out of nostalgia. Out of pure loving. For. This. Freaking. Game. It's not exactly the hardest game ever, but it's not so much about the difficulty. It's about the thrill of every battle. About the enjoyment. It can get frustrating, but in the end it's all worth it. Just feeling so proud after you've beaten the main game. It's kind of a short game, but it's not about the length. It's about how much fun and good memories you had from every single battle you had, and every Pokémon you caught. This game is just absolutely amazing, I'd say even better than Pokémon Platinum, my first Pokémon game. And that's going a long way, considering I freaking loved Platinum as well. You'll love this game even if you didn't grow up with gen 3. I rate 9/10 for this amazing game. My first time doing a review, is it good? o.o

[@Amphanotes]

Oh, and throw in the Delta Episode, Soaring freely around Hoenn on Latios/Latias and new-and-improved Secret Bases, and you got my favorite game of all time. Omega Ruby is my prized possession 3DS game! If you ask me, this is the last good Pokemon game. Sadly.

i have always had a thing for rival theme's, they gave me a rush and made me happy i could battle a trainer that would stand out entirely from others, i especially liked the hoenn rival theme, but this, IS THE BEST THING I HAVE EVER HEARED gamefreak and the pokemon company really did an amazing job on this awesome music, and a lot of thanks for posting this pokeli, you are awesome

[@lpg5355]

Same. It really had the intensity like the Battles in the Maison. Same goes for the Gym Leader theme in XY

[@jeremiahgreen5632]

This is way more exciting and clean than the original imo.

[@Redshield_84]

Imo, I easily think that this is the best rival song ever. The song perfectly portrays the excitement of the battle, while also at the same time saying that this is still your rival, so don't just go easy on them. But even besides what its trying to show, the song is just🔥 anyway so there's that.

These two are so like able.. Also, aren’t they official in the manga series? (If you know what I mean 😳) Even if they were more like best friends than rivals (Wally was like your true rival), they’re my favorite friendly rivals, and the chemistry and bond they have is just- adorable. The fact that they have such different personalities is a cool touch. May being air-headed, ditzy, sweet and out-going, while Brendan is laid-back, friendly, easily flustered at times and he even comes off as cocky at first, but ends up becoming a caring best friend.
