1:43 you are the fucking hero of my childhood!

[@projectxspectre]

This one's it. This is the best version of this theme. Absolutely masterful.

[@indecisivewolf5620]

Pokémon has literally never missed with their soundtracks, even in the spinoff games.

[@CoffinZ12]

I can’t believe you did this I loved this song as a kid, and to hear it in pure metal is a dream come true. THANK YOU BRO!!!

[@Consolous]

Metal brings any song to life

[@nox_luna]

holy crap, we need ronalds theme too (if you havent done it already) actually we need the club leader too, i loved this game

[@CRANTIME]

Oh this SLAPS

[@norwegianmangaenthusiast8709]

Club Master Duel next

[@strauss777]

Man Pokemon TCG way back on the GBC had some great music, talk about nostaliga

[@animalxing8697]

The music for this game slaps so hard.

[@rudecrab6022]

I feel like this is what this song was intended to be

[@emsninja6176]

Wow I've never heard this song before and it sounds great.

[@pokemon1895]

I thought I was alone in even knowing this game existed! Awesome to see this cover!

[@henrisilvennoinen8020]

One of my all time fav video game songs, killed it dude!

[@PunkDisciple23]

Loved the music from this game. Hearing the Club Master theme as a kid was amazing.

[@hobalderas]

Hope this gets on Spotify soon! Great cover!

[@PlutoNonary]

Oh man, that's a blast from the past! Now we need the Club Leader battle theme to go with it!

[@exeledusprince9165]

A bit if a late reply, but Gametal did a metal cover of grand master, I do believe.

[@areaxisthegurkha]

@@exeledusprince9165 nope he did Club Leader.

[@exeledusprince9165]

@@areaxisthegurkha yes this is what I meant

[@areaxisthegurkha]

​@@exeledusprince9165you said grandmaster

[@exeledusprince9165]

@@areaxisthegurkha I understand, it was a slip if the tongue. That's what the phrase "that's what I meant" refers to sometimes. My bad.

[@kryzallazurite1585]

So not only does this slap, I noticed while Toxic was playing parts of this track have sections that sound somewhat similar to both Silver from Gold & Silver but also some elements of Archie & Maxie's themes from gen 3 as well. Interesting how you can hear things like that even if the music is being played through a new medium.

[@LegendBegins]

A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one!

[@kennyrichardson3842]

I love how much fun you're clearly having in this video! It definitely enhances the experience to see you go into full jam mode while you're playing.

[@bmac4]

A lot of people talk about the club leader theme but I always felt this theme was prime for arrangement. Great job!

[@SellyJr]

Yooo, no way! Love it!

[@russellw.8620]

I used to play the TCG on my gb color constantly, there's alot of good music on there. Sounds amazing dude.

[@LivingDeadbeat]

Just finished playing this again, amazing cover!

[@Sk8trgod420]

I was just looking this song up and jamming so hard with headset on and eyes closed after taking a bong rip and was thinking "Man, i wish there was a metal cover of this". I didn't expect this to show up when I searched "Pokemon tcg grandmaster duel"

[@the_guy_with_orange_glasses]

I LOOOOOVE THIS SONG !!! Thank you from France mon ami ;)

[@mikebellsfitnessshorts2783]

Sky Shark opening theme on the NES. It's never been covered, at least I haven't found it anyway. It might be impossible. It's gotta be up there for best tracks on the NES.

[@Tahanok2]

Awesome. I hope you can do the Club Leader Duel as well.

[@xAce9009x]

Hopefully this song gets a lot more traffic now that the game dropped on switch, sounds so amazing 🔥

[@battle_on]

I've been hoping for songs from this for literally forever and your style is PERFECT for this song! NAILED the nostalgia and made it your own.

[@dantonio95]

I'm obsessed with this cover. It's such a banger.

[@Rael0505]

this is insane

[@ericeasley7633]

Absolute banger! You mentioned somewhere you thought your 7 string gave this the perfect heavy rhythm sound, and I have to agree 🤘

[@omardominguez4844]

Man, you should be millionare, your music is amazing! I have all your songs on my Spotify playlist, and I listen to them while working and at the gym. Basically, your music accompanies me for half of my day jajaja

[@basen89]

Ahhh, sweet nostalgia kicks in!...This is literally how the original track sounded in my head going up against the Grandmasters for the first time! Love that you chose to cover this gem!

[@SmeiskAudio]

Hell YEAH!!! 🤘 Hot DAMN!!! I gotta go to bed now, but man oh MAN did that hit my ears and heart in all the right places.

[@lpsp442]

Oh YES - I've been parched for a metal remix of this amazing track for maybe two decades. Wish I'd noticed this sooner! 🤟

[@Skyverb]

Never heard this one before. Sounds awesome!

[@drunkdrag0n]

Fun fact: In the TCG this comes from, against the Grandmasters (there were 4 of them) it was not possible to Card-out against them, as they each had a deck built to both prevent that and thrash you simultaneously. Oh, the music is awesome as always too!

[@bmac4]

Funny you say that because I've decked out the final one (Rod) a couple times before. His AI isnt smart enough to realize that Charizard's energy burn ability makes it so it doesnt matter what energy he has attached to it so he just doesn't do anything when it's out. Though by far the easiest one to deck out is Ronald, because he doesnt really have the energy to make use of the special Zapdos in his deck. In fact there are several duels in this game which are easier to win via deck out than to beat via prizes, such as Murray's (psychic club leader) who you can beat via deck out if you send a Rattata vs his Alakazam because it doesnt do enough damage to bypass Rattata's resistances.

[@rjbourgeois5490]

@@bmac4 There's a major glitch with the AI regarding Kangaskhan. The only one that will seem to switch out if they are in dire straits of decking out is Club Leader Murray. Their AI programming wasn't the best in regards to win by deck out.

[@doctorfate6414]

I have been looking for something like this for a long time.

[@rjbourgeois5490]

Gentleman Jack has entered the fray. (Would love to hear a cover of the ending theme from this title. All great music from the overworld themes to the battles, and a ton of great memories. Ronald, The Grandmasters, Club leaders, Imakuni. Besides the Ai/difficulty level, the game is underrated.)

[@PamonhasDePiracicaba]

Wow, that was unexpected. Thank you for covering this!

[@T4nkcommander]

You've always been really good at bringing the "oomph" out of songs that have a solid beat. So it is always a real treat when you cover songs like this one that really allow your style to hit full force.

[@victormarx7529]

Man do I really like this🎉

[@hexadecimate2139]

Holy fucking shit I've been requesting this from you and the other YT VGM guitarists for YEARS you absolute MAD LAD! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS. And you KILLED IT AS EXPECTED! THANK YOU JACK!!!!

[@NinjaxCad]

superb song and great playing. those fast trills were really impressive

[@myohel0]

Hell yeah dude, I love seeing Pokemon TCG (GBC) rep, especially since that game has a killer soundtrack. The Grandmaster's Theme is so intense, it gets your blood pumping as you fight the elite masters with their legendary cards. That part at around 1:43 (with the buildup starting around 1:21) is my favorite part of the original song, and I love how you captured the intensity of it!

[@AtmaDragoon]

What an excellent blast from the past outta nowhere! Still remember the list for my deck I would always make when I played this game; kinda have to since the battery in my cart died. And the music -- I feel like every track was excellent in its own way. Of course with this one, there was always that sense of gravitas to the duel; a song to really get the adrenaline going. I feel like you translated it into a metal format quite nicely -- thank you for your rendition!

[@vidproductions9924]

Oof, right in the childhood, AMAZING cover!! Instantly subscribed

[@Marcobros1]

This sounds brutal dude :D, keep it up!!!!

[@alexander653]

Unwavering belief cover when

[@michaelhuss0]

Pokemon TCG is such an underappreciated game (and soundtrack). This rendition is more awesome than the original. \0/ (edit) My only critique here is that the audio levels could have been tweaked to bring some of the subtler voices out better. I notice them, but I wonder if someone who hasn't heard the original would.

[@8BitAlchemy]

Can't believe you got this as a request I love this song so much and the whole soundtrack for this game for that matter! You did an incredible job, this song jams harder than most keep up the good work man!

[@webbc99]

This is such a brilliant game. Thanks for the awesome cover.

[@s.s.o.georgia7034]

I am so unbelievably happy to finally hear this!! I asked for this cover when I was a Patreon sub back in 2016!! The long 7 year wait comes to a beautiful end.

[@ChicagoRetroGamer]

Always so good, appreciate all of your videos dude!
