Turns out there's a third remix of the #1 theme (don't want to spoil) that I missed, which appears in B2W2. My abbreviated opinion is that it's not as good as the original or the spinoff remix, but better than the other remix I mentioned.

Gen 5 really was the generation Gamefreak loved and the design, story and [most important factor in this vid] music is unbelievable.

[@jeamsis]

I think that upon a close examination of gen 5 you can really feel that it was a passion project of sorts from gamefreak and that’s why it’s so unfortunate that when the game came out people dunked on it so hard for silly reasons

[@intergalactic92]

@@jeamsis this just makes me so sad. Everyone who complains that the new ones are all lazy cash grabs should just remember how they treated the one passion project in the midst of it. If you dunked on gen 5 at the time then it’s your fault.

[@echo3-1enteringsimpmode]

The emerald battle music is also my favourite. Its so cool😍

[@nicolasg8091]

I figured from the moment you said there was only going to be one other champion battle it would be Cynthia’s. Which made me sad because it meant no Champion Blue battle, which rocks. But I was wrong! I LOVE how it sounds like an alarm going off at the beginning. And the buildup is great, I love how insane Blue sounds going off about how it means he’s “the most powerful champion in the world!”
