Pokémon Sword & Shield - Hop Battle Music (HQ)

[@Pokeli]

Since the music was already shown on various trailer and Gameplay will it be considering spoiling the game? No right! As promised from my previous update from 2017. I didn't forget, I will not upload the battle music until official release of the game. I will only upload those that are officially shown from various trailers that Pokémon had actually shown! As a proof, here the official gameplay from 3DJuegos. com and Japanese IGN channel where they actually shown the battle music (Start at 3:53) : kzbin.info/www/bejne/oZW1oYmIj6t7d5Y Now Enjoy and have a good day! ;)

I actually really like Hop's character writing, I don't think I have ever felt bad for winning a pokemon battle with a rival before and rather than simply walking all over him and him being all happy, like Hau and the rivals from X and Y, he actually gets depressed and loses motivation which is pretty sad, because it makes Hop feel more like a realistic character.

[@splogxyz3339]

Sword don’t compare my boy Hau to the rivals from x and y! shauna, Trevor, and Tierno were cute but the main rival Calem/Serena is emotionless trash

[@flavoryf566]

Didn't play X & Y but yeah agreed. While (slightly annoying) in game he was at times, I did still overall appreciate his character and how he was handled. Along with loving how he does end up changing up his team a fair bit after his Bede battle. Which is something I always wondered why more rivals didn't do to spice things up more...

He's actually similar to Marnie and Bede. All three rivals strived for fame from the League, not necessarily for themselves but mainly for something else. Hop strived to keep a reputation that's comparable to his older brother. Bede strived to show his appreciation for Chairman Rose, to show that the faith put on him wasn't to waste. Marnie strived to popularise Spikemuth, her rundown and small hometown. Where everyone knows everybody like a family. Luckily, all three discover what they themselves want to be happy in the end.

I was even happy after Bede destroyed him, being that he wouldn't shut up about being him being Leon's younger brother and that he's going to be the future champion. It was when I saw the mood change and that made me realize something. Throughout the game I was constantly beating him and as he started to doubt himself, I started to feel terrible. I felt the worst when I beat him in the championship where I destroyed his purpose for setting out in the first place, his dream. That last fight though man and this music.

Hop is not only the first rival to catch a legendary pokemon, but will likely be the first professor to have one too. Edit: forgot N and Gladion, my bad. Edit 2: ^ N also might technically not count as a rival really. It's debatable. Edit 3: whether or not N is a rival is debatable. However by definition of the word "rival" he is *technically* not, since his goal is different than the player's. Edit 4: Looked it up, Silvally and Type:Null are legendary Pokemon. Edit 5: According to Bulbapedia, Type:Null belonged to Gladion after he freed it, meaning he technically caught it. In conclusion, Hop is the 2nd or 3rd rival to catch a legendary, technically. (2nd in the most technical of senses.)

@@Blackheartzero He still hadn't even filled out his party, though. Sure they've got to keep the rival battles from being too challenging, but the game was already easy enough and having certain encounters where you have to fight a full team would've made the rival battles more interesting anyway.

[@user-ni7ui1nk8p]

Nate Wilson I think what makes the game easy is the early exp share and the Pokémon learning good moves early. In earlier generations like gen 2 (god bless that game it’s amazing) a lot of Pokémon would start off weak and require switch trading or strategic grinding in the early game. Examples: eevee, every bug type, most first form Pokémon, togepi, abra, Magikarp but technically you get a free Gyrados before the exp share so it doesn’t count. In addition enemy Pokémon would always spike up in level every short period of time when you play. Also unlike sword and shield the old games had mostly first forms for until like the 7th gym. Let’s not forgot reds team of LEVEL 80 POKÉMON ON MOUNT SILVER. Gen one was similar but when op exp share was added well you know. Also back in the day there were less evolutions and it would take a long time to get a stab move with good overall stats.

[@matthaisstupidus]

@@user-ni7ui1nk8p I feel like what you like about Johto I question if it was done out of drunken stupidity. Sure, the flat levels make it more open, but in return grinding takes eons to get like 5 levels. If there's one region that needs the broken exp share, it's Johto.

[@Naruku2121]

Such a good song. Full of hope and wonder with a groove marching to beat of your own drum. Then *DEPRESSION* and you realize this theme might actually plays in his head to help him cope the rest of the game. The other sad part is he actually isn't even a bad trainer yet everyone gives him crap, he managed to achieve very much second only to the player themselves. So much the opposing version legendary sees something in him and catches it with a single Poke'Ball no less. I think the Sword and Shield Dynamic makes sense, he's like your bro that always has your back. Honestly this sort of makes Hop the best 'Friendly' Rival so far. He has optimism hope, and actual ambition you get that in his rival theme for one, but you see him all ways trying to improve always on the Attack (Sword to *Your* Shield) or how how he always tries to hold out and while his strength may not be on your level he's always there ready to support you and the others (A Shield to *Your* Sword).
