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.
@@yujin-1907 I like the diamond/pearl/platinum version more. Probably because I heard it like 1000 times already, not because I beat her that often but because I always failed to defeat her. Platinum was my first pokemon game (if you don't count pokemon ranger in) and I had literally no idea what i was doing.

@@eizzah8323 Don't get me wrong, I love the first two games. Pokemon MD: Red was fun, and Pokemon MD: Explorers of Sky was one if my favorite games that I still play.
I really like how SwSh's gym theme actually changes when you have the lead, when a Pokemon faints, and when the gym leader reaches their final Pokemon.
The music changes when one of your poke faints? Huh... I've never had a Pokémon feint during a gym battle in Galar. I was always overleveled by 20+ levels. Before the ryhans gym I had several level 100s lmfao
@@decimation9780 he's saying he didn't want to be overleveled to trash the gyms like I did. I had no fun and didn't even realize there was a special tune that played when one of the player poke faints. I was ridiculously overleveled the entire game. First time I lost a Pokémon to a trainer battle was against the dojo final battle, and that was because I was messing around with cubfu and didn't swap out.
Michael: Something that the Pokemon games have always excelled at ever since the beginning Me: Making money Michael: is their music Me: I mean you're not wrong either
danboom101 Salazzle gets one shot by a photon geyser at plus one, so unless you had a focus sash/band or it took the hit due to Pokémon refresh, you cheated somehow (yeah I calced it idk why lmao)
danboom101 Oh I used the smogon damage calculator, and it was a guaranteed ohko (103.9% chance for a min roll I believe). Was also semi kidding cause ppl always say how easy the fight is and will sometimes lie, though if your calculations are correct, then good on ya!
danboom101 oh did you take into account that Ultra Necrozma has plus one special attack? Cause when calculating without that, your value is correct, but the raised special attack puts it into Ohko range
its very good but i think its kinda overrated bc of how iconic the red fight is, i wouldnt really say among the absolute best, id put it just below the middle of champion themes, and obvi theres some gym leader/legendary/special battle/rival themes that are probably better as well. its hard tho, since even the “weak” music in this franchise blows most ost out of the water
HG/SS ruined the track....the Original is much more savage. HG/SS made it a mellow boring track and the original just screams: “You’re going to lose.” No official remix hits that track right.
I mean, a Quick Ball turn 1 against a catch rate 45 Pokemon in Gen VI is a 225 catch rate, which is almost a 255 catch rate, meaning there's about a 1/4 chance of nabbing either Xerneas or Yveltal right away.
My favorite theme is the Battle Tower in Sword and Shield. I love how energetic and fast paced it is and the fact that Toby Fox composed it makes it even better.
How did Cynthia's theme not get in here? No way, its hands-down the best. You don't feel like you're going into a Champion fight, you feel like you're about to be smote by a Goddess instead
Some of my favorite songs that weren’t on the list: Legendary Pokémon B/W Gym leader DPPT Gym leader RBY Cynthia’s theme DPPT Elite four B/W Giratina’s theme
With Ultra Necrozma's theme, I like how as the battle goes on, the theme gets more and more frantic and chaotic, showing that although it looks elegant and godly, Necrozma's mental state is terrible and it has quite literally gone insane
are we not gonna mention the horror known as B/W's red health theme? They took an irritating beep of "hey you're about to die!" and turned it into a catchy and blood pumping song that goes on, and it just adds to the heat of the moment while you try to handle such a dangerous situation. Sure to bring terror to anyone playing a nuzlocke.
When I played white for the first time and the music switched to that on low health I was so suprised. It was awesome, wish they kept it in future generations
There’s a lot of amazing songs throughout the gens, but one I seem to always find myself crawling back to just for a good vibe is Driftveil city. By no means as amazing or iconic as many of the greats (like the main title theme), but definitely my favorite just to listen to.
Punk rock was once described as "rock and roll by people who didn't have very many skills as musicians but still felt the need to express themselves through music". In other words, its okay that his ace is Toxtricity, because punk not about the technique and musical intelligence. Honestly though, this shouldn't even matter
@@grunkleg.29691 Well I know that it doesn't. It was just a little bit of irony that I thought about, but him having Toxtricity with this explanation makes it even cooler!
I like all the Box Legendary themes, but in my opinion the Weather Trio theme is just a step above the rest. Dialga and Palkia's theme is amazing, don't get me wrong but the Lake Trio's theme is just Godly.
I LOVE Iris' theme, I can't stop talking about it Very worthy of being in the top 10 Sometimes I feel like I'm annoying someone when I talk about how much I love this theme
@@light_player07 Right. And I'll tell you why: Because Lance SUCKS compared to Red. I seriously had no Problem at all destroying his Dragonites. But when you finally defeated every gym Battle, every Champion and every Trainer of two Regions in HG/SS and you get access to Mt.Silver you don't even expect Red to be there. You just get warned by Oak from wild Pokemon. And then Red is completely overleveld and kicks your ass while this intense music plays. It's a completely different feeling to hear this theme while you're battling the best Trainer of the world or a Champion who has a Team that unfinished he even got two of the same species... 😅
My favorites are the Diamond/Pearl/Platinum Trainer Battle Music, Gym Battle Music, Cynthia's Battle Music and of course the Kalos Battle music. Alola has some great music as well
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
@@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.
Hearing Ultra Necrozma’s theme brought back memories when my Infernape was immortal on the battle,the dude kept staying 1hp until Necrozma died from the burn damage cause he loved me🔥❤️
Legit my infernape once did the impossible beat a wing form tornadus and clearly hm slaved latios who had surf as my last Pokemon in an online rotation battle thunder punch and gunk shot Edit Omega Ruby
@ Luis I was wondering where the hell you got an Infernape from when I suddenly remembered that I had a Meganium on my Moon team. You used Island Scan, didn't you?
i love the sword and shield gym theme ESPECIALLY when they start cheering. imagine putting yourself in the actual game. their final pokemon one step closer to victory. they say something about their last pokemon standing and send them out and the crowd starts chanting as they know whats about to happen. then next thing you know two GIANT pokemon are having the battle of their life. its truly amazing to listen to
Yeah, I was really expecting Cynthia's theme when Mikey said there is one other champion theme better than Iris's. But Blue's theme is really great too.
Lettuc e Honestly really surprised me that Cynthia’s theme or Dialga/Palkia theme weren’t on the list. However what Gen 4 really did excel at were Route and Town themes, so I’m expecting to see some Gen 4 love in his next Top 10 Music themes

I think this was a really intressting list with great points! I would personally say people sleep on deoxys theme or the original regi trios theme, But thats just me
Oh my god can you guys not know that a list like this is opinion subjective you can’t say stuff like oh why didn’t he include this or oh I’m surprised this wasn’t on the list it’s a Pinyan subject of you dumb ass is battle music is something that everyone has a different opinion on seriously why do people bash on opinion baseless all the time when the person clearly says it’s opinion based you can list your opinion that’s fine you can tell your list and stuff like that but you don’t have to be like I’m surprised this wasn’t on the list because you should be surprised it’s not your list
Gen 4 has most of my favorite battle themes ( including the gen 2 remakes) even the traditional trainer battle bops! Other notables are ho-oh's battle theme, champion cynthia, and of course palmer's battle theme
Tbh in my opinion cynthia's theme is only good for the first 15 seconds then it turns into something sloppy, kind of like blue's theme its fantastic at the first 15 seconds then goes down and then up again so I like blue theme.
No Red’s theme? That’s like the most suspenseful song Gamefreak has ever released. The deep dark building of the horns really convey the feeling that you’re battling the best Pokémon trainer in the known world atop a freezing mountain. It’s all or nothing.
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.

Cynthia gen 4 battle theme: "Am I a joke to you?"
Favorite of all time
the best
Overated
I'm a huge fan of the Regi-trio's (RSE) theme. It just sounds so ominous and honestly kinda scary.
Hearing Ultra Necrozma’s theme brought back memories when my Infernape was immortal on the battle,the dude kept staying 1hp until Necrozma died from the burn damage cause he loved me🔥❤️
Legit my infernape once did the impossible beat a wing form tornadus and clearly hm slaved latios who had surf as my last Pokemon in an online rotation battle thunder punch and gunk shot
Edit Omega Ruby
@ Luis I was wondering where the hell you got an Infernape from when I suddenly remembered that I had a Meganium on my Moon team. You used Island Scan, didn't you?
@@eeveestar6826 I'm not sure if you edited it to me my phone is saying that you did but your comment doesn't but it was Omega Ruby traded gts
EeveeStar 682 yes I did and I wanted a shiny Monferno,didn’t get it,but at least I got him
It is immortal. I'm not trying to be mean, I just don't want you to make the mistake in real life and embarrass yourself

Please don’t murder me
i love the sword and shield gym theme ESPECIALLY when they start cheering. imagine putting yourself in the actual game. their final pokemon one step closer to victory. they say something about their last pokemon standing and send them out and the crowd starts chanting as they know whats about to happen. then next thing you know two GIANT pokemon are having the battle of their life. its truly amazing to listen to

Yeah, I was really expecting Cynthia's theme when Mikey said there is one other champion theme better than Iris's. But Blue's theme is really great too.

Just watch the whole vid instead of just going to the song you want

HEY I DONT LIKE BLUES THEME
When Mike doesn’t mention Gen 2 or 4 at all in the entire video.
Lettuc e Honestly really surprised me that Cynthia’s theme or Dialga/Palkia theme weren’t on the list. However what Gen 4 really did excel at were Route and Town themes, so I’m expecting to see some Gen 4 love in his next Top 10 Music themes
ProKobe 🎼 amen brother
I really feel like mikey has sonething against gen 4. Even in his strongest region video
@@PepperonibeatsZombie Gen 5 had the best route and city themes. 4 has the battle
@@martisplayz5743 that lasts like what 40s just to kill one blissey
16:19 This is part of the reason why Gen 5 are awesome, the music! And yes the Unova region is my favorite.
same
Yeah the last pokemon in pokemon black and white were legendary but 2 were good but not that good really
Edit :i did not like my comment
N's theme
Its tied for my second, but its close. (Tied with kalos and narrowly beaten by sinnoh)
Swords of Justice theme tho
Micheal desperately commentating on the gym leader music to avoid us noticing he used ember on geodude
Newcomers: It's Yveltal
Yveltal: MY NAME IS YAHVELTAL!!!
Sounds absolutely stupid and ridiculous, lmfao.
@@SomeOne-og5dr it's the correct way to say it.
@@Ockto_ That's like saying Bologna is pronounced Baloney, how? There's no e or y in Bologna. It's Bo-Log-Na.
@@SomeOne-og5dr bruh. "Yveltal" is a English translation of a Japanese name based off of
"Yvel" (Meaning evil in some country)
and
"Quetzal" (The Greek name of a large Prehistoric Bird)
It's bound to not make sense to english speakers.
@@Ockto_ I am English, lmao. I'm just saying, that the way the letters in the word is, it just doesn't add up to saying it like there's an A in it. Yaveltal? (XD). It's like the P in Pterodactyl. Not meaning to make a silly deal out of something, lol. But, more relevant to the video. ruclips.net/video/-d8ybenQcMs/видео.html is the absolute best.
Michael: doesn’t mention the sword and shield eternatus third phase or battle red / lance in hgss
Me: frustrated noises
Dude, the more with say, the quicker Mikey will see the light at end of the tunnel and change his mind
Wait did I miss something, YOU CAN BATTLE RED IN SWORD
No, I mean battle red or Lance in heart gold or soul silver
@@Wolfywolf7 no he was talking to TRENT 531
When you realize that no gen 2 or 4 tracks got in the video:
Sad sinjoh noises
Yea. It's sed when two of ur fav gens don't make the cut. Plus, the Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series too. ;-;
Michael Is just a Nostalgia-A** when it comes Pokémon Music.
Like,I don't hate Gen 3 but Come on,
We can right off the bat,tell that Michael is a huge Nostalgiturd.
@@dadorkdoge2689 Also sinnoh music sucks in my OPINION
My favorite battle theme is Team Rocket's battle team in HGSS, cause bro it just gives this feeling that you just wanna boogie.
"The only thing you can control in the adventure of your life is the soundtrack. Make it a banger!"
Micheal: Makes video about Pokémon music
Me: “It’s been 3,000 years...”
Steam Dragon ikr? Finally he’s doing this.
Ever since the Ultimate Weapon was build
Another thing, I know it’s his opinion, but the Sinnoh version of the Battle Frontier theme slaps WAY harder than the Hoenn one.
@Steam Dragon Hoenn is my favorite region but I honestly prefer the battle frontier theme from Sinnoh as well
For me red's theme from HG/SS will always be my #1 pick without a doubt. Every time I listen to the song it gives me absolute chills.
Yeah same me ,that battle gives you some energy like WTF you are battling a dead persons ghost lmaaoooo
Did I miss something? How did this not make into his list? Like this is the biggest song from the series. He must not have played those versions...
Reds theme from HeartGold SoulSilver is the same thing as Lance's champion theme I know that because I've heard both of them
Yes I got rekkddd by red
Look up "Red's Humble".
"if this video gets 50 thousan-"
Me: clicks like button before even watching the video.
Silveeo uh no it isn’t lol
500K is the half of 1 Mil
@Silveeo bruh are you fucking dumb
Silveeo I think you did meth instead of math
It’s not 50%, it’s 5%, SuCH a hIGh GOaL.
I love how the clip for Ultra Necrozma's theme was The Rock dying to Power Gem which Mikey raged about on live camera while he was streaming.
I'm surprised champion Steven's theme isn't on the list. Definitely a favorite of mine. Also, the Regis music!
I agree...
Like Regis Philbin?
Same
Bro fr. Especially ORAS Steven with the beginning of the track.
Stevens theme should have been very high on the list.
To me, Giratina and Cynthia's theme are what made Gen 4 so memorable and dear to my heart.
Giratina's for me, damn good
Cynthias Original theme Is Meehh.... The version from B&W Is soo Soo much better pretty much the reason why I like her Now.. and giratinas Theme Is GODLY!
Yeah, but i never heard cynthias themes full version, the low health noise is just too annoying

when I battled Iris for the 1st time, I instantly thought of Mario Kart's Rainbow Road
Anthony McDonald Which one specifically? Or maybe it remind you of any Rainbow Road theme?
I think this was a really intressting list with great points! I would personally say people sleep on deoxys theme or the original regi trios theme, But thats just me
I’m surprised the Neo Team Plasma battle theme wasn’t included here.
Gen 5 music hits differently tho.
I think I prefer the original Team Plasma Theme, idk why
Team galactic had the best music in the game
@@Potatoz1241 yes! Galactic admins theme was my favorite.
Oh my god can you guys not know that a list like this is opinion subjective you can’t say stuff like oh why didn’t he include this or oh I’m surprised this wasn’t on the list it’s a Pinyan subject of you dumb ass is battle music is something that everyone has a different opinion on seriously why do people bash on opinion baseless all the time when the person clearly says it’s opinion based you can list your opinion that’s fine you can tell your list and stuff like that but you don’t have to be like I’m surprised this wasn’t on the list because you should be surprised it’s not your list
I think the successor Korrina theme from XY is so underrated it’s so amazing and powerful
my bro: why do you keep laughing at shadow pokémon?
me: *XD*
Underrated comment
Get out
clever but don't forget collesseum
What I took away from this: Unova has many reasons for being the best region.
The anime was not one of them

I cried when he didn’t mention the crowd chant part of the galar gym theme
Sword and Shield may have some issues but the music is great as always
He did mention it just in a different number to the regular Galar gym theme
I agree
I thought number one was definitely going to be the red vs gold theme on mount silver.
Nah Hoenn theme is superior to that...but u know Red's theme is straight on FiRe...(~‾▿‾)~
When he mentioned "Bring Me To Life" I cough-laughed and now my throat hurts.

ItzHyper hears Hop theme first time: yeah this is fun, reminds me of Super Mario RPG
Hop elite 4 battle: MA BOI

Not gonna lie, Hop’s theme sounds like Mario Kart music.

Tbh in my opinion cynthia's theme is only good for the first 15 seconds then it turns into something sloppy, kind of like blue's theme its fantastic at the first 15 seconds then goes down and then up again so I like blue theme.
you mean the one right before you fight Cynthia, that one is not a battle theme

Still some good stuff here, and I agree, that battle themes are pretty awesome
No Red’s theme? That’s like the most suspenseful song Gamefreak has ever released. The deep dark building of the horns really convey the feeling that you’re battling the best Pokémon trainer in the known world atop a freezing mountain. It’s all or nothing.
