The build up at 1:40 is fantastic.

[@azuresea7183]

and the finish 1:51.🤔🤨🧐

[@kevstermister98]

I always enjoyed the GSC/HgSs gym battle, it sounds kinda sinister compared to the other gym battle themes.

[@DATskorge]

agreed. this was my main gen as a kid so gyms were so intimidating for me. really miss that factor these days. pokemon reborn gave it back though. in SPADES.

[@maxinesenior596]

Only thing that would make it better is a gen 5 style "Last Pokemon!" theme

[@delireent.3960]

Same, SoulSilver was my first game And I picked chikorita. I was stuck for weeks with the first gym. The gym theme Felt so scary the first Time !!!

[@thevenom2731]

Ahhh Heart Gold and Soul Silver. Ya know. Ya really couldn’t go wrong with those as remakes. They were just way too much fun back in the day. But the music? Ya know we’re here for it. Cheers Zame! Hope you’re doing well! Same to everyone else 🖤

[@ARCEUS493ZELDA]

amen to that, even without regarding the lance/red theme the HG/SS OST was a bop, but the lance/red theme was just an added bonus tbh

[@yerba_morte]

the gym leader theme in GSC is still, in my opinion, the most intimidating sounding gym battle theme in the series. it's always cool to see somebody remaster it. great job!

[@VixYW]

Yeah, kinda sucks that recent titles lacks the intensity we had in gym themes up to gen 6 (maybe?), and this one in particular goes hard in that direction. Makes you feels as if you're never prepared enough for those fights.

[@pieter308]

HeartGold & SoulSilver are my favorite pokémon game to this day, and the Jotho region and the music of the games were great as well! Thank you zame for doing this theme

[@Ludra64]

Honestly, HGSS are the best Pokémon games. Cool graphics, Good Story and nice additions since it is a remake. 9.5/10

[@pieter308]

@@Ludra64 they really are phenomenal ^-^

[@griffintgm9467]

Ayyy another one! Heartgold is my favorite game

[@Abigdummy4life]

0:23 Always my fave part about this HGSS version theme, all because I never expected any guitars during that part when first playing those remakes.

[@giraffedragon6110]

This theme carries a transition of meaning for me. The first half dozen times I played the game this was a leitmotif of dread because I kept getting my ass handed to me by the gym leaders. I already played both Emerald and Platinum by this point and I didn’t carry that problem with them. But… after trying new tactics, doing research, learning, adapting, and raising more than a 6 team wonder, the theme became hype for me. No longer was I afraid, now, now it’s the feeling of “I have you in my sights you bastard!”

[@kingzerko]

This slaps, you are such a fantastic artist! Regards.

[@zodiacwilloughby-oneill2732]

This is awesome Zame! Giving me goosebumps over here! Have you considered creating an arrangement of the Kanto Gym Leader theme from HGSS? Would love to hear your version!

[@stars3297]

love that theme, it slaps

[@alphabladelm2011]

The intensity of this remix sounds perfect for a Gym Battle! You’ve got the right stuff as always, Zame!

[@jaywantstobattle5046]

Would love to hear the Kanto Gym Theme from HGSS remastered next

[@un_tizio_a_caso2701]

Wow, you are always better! More epic than the original... The best remix I've ever heard of this track! Good work, cheers!

[@fromixty]

I like the addition of the Snare drum. HGSS' gym leader battle theme is my favorite, however I always thought that it lacked it.

[@KingJalla]

The very beginning gave me chills down my arms... the memories ♥

[@VOWARANT]

What a perfect remaster! I’ve been waiting for this exact track for so long! Fantastic work!

[@wisethinker1748]

You are so good at this, every song brings a sense of calmness and peace in my heart or a deep passion, thank you

[@Stefang731]

OMG This is so great!!! I’ll never forget when I used to play this game. Every gym leader here was a challenge.

[@chrisvalderramavega3440]

this sounds amazing! good job zame! i’m playing through heartgold right now actually:)

[@ciaonz2637]

Every day Zame releases a new track is a good day! Amazing as always!

[@Moss_Dude]

What I like about the gen 2 gym themes is that unlike most other Pokemon games with their upbeat/high energy soundtracks, these ones sound intense and serious. It really fits how hard some of the gyms are there like Whitney, Chuck, and Claire. Gen 2 more than any other always felt the most challenging when it came to gyms, so this theme fits perfectly for that.

[@deviation395]

JOHTO! This gym battle theme has always been one of my favorites and this arrangement keeps that intensity intact while still being an excellent arrangement in it of itself

[@TheXnuT]

about time this masterpiece gets released. I just replayed heartgold last month and that original theme is lit as hell

[@Mialotic]

I forgot how much I love this gym theme. Great job

[@marcoscabezolajr.8408]

Solo porque la música es chiva en esta entrega no me queje tanto cuando el milktank de Whitney me estaba haciendo m1erd4 el equipo 😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣👌 Por cierto le queda muy bien la guitarra electrica que le pusiste... Excelente como siempre...

[@THEW0LFB0Y]

I think this is the most intense Gym Leader theme, even to this day. Just too bad that most of their teams are Kanto centered and honestly... pretty easy. I had a Heracross with Guts to take care of Whitney's Miltank lol.

[@griffintgm9467]

I found johto to be difficult compared to other generations, kanto is kinda hard, Hoenn is meh, sinnoh is easy as crap, unova was challenging, and the rest past is easy

A shame about G/S/C or HG/SS- unless they do some sort of "Let's Go" counterpart to those games, it may be a very long time until we get a soundtrack with modernized sounds like this. It kind of feels like we narrowly missed them by doing "Let's Go" for Gen 1 and the 3DS/Switch remake for Gen 3 onward.
