Holy gosh..! I felt tears streaming from my eyes now😭😭 The nostalgia of playing X & Y games!! They might not be the edgy, loner, impatient, battle goal minded Rivals like we have from previous Gens before Gen 6, but these fellas gives us something we overlook sometimes. That is "Friendship" through the end! They might not be strong & gives challenge at all during our gameplay but seeing their flaw actually taught me lots. Being the Ace of Pokemon Battle isn't everything. Throughout journeying with them, I kept relating myself to them, 1. Tierno showed us "styles". His goal to create his ideal dancing Pokemon team with amazing moves. seems to represent us in choosing strong or effective battle styles. 2. Trevor focused on being the 1st of his friends in completing the Pokedex reflect some us players who intended to explore, catch and view newer Pokemon infos. 3. Among all the five friends, I related myself to Shauna a lot. Similar to her, when I 1st played the game, i was more into followed the flow or tag along with whatever that comes. Shauna lacked in goals to pursue but I was definitely charmed by portrayal. She was the "Heart" & voice of reason of her friends. I was glad for them to finally be included in Masters. Their battle theme has always gives the strongest vibes of " Pokemon Battle isn't just winning but to make us excited & joy to each other". Seeing how this theme combined all of its "encounter & battle bgm truly gives its best tune!"
I couldn’t agree more, it shows me that being a trainer shouldn’t be always about having this strength obsessed mind battling rivals and becoming champion and such, to me it’s about exploring the world meeting all new Pokémon but most of all creating your own story in the walkabout of life. A lot more fulfilling way than randomly battle for funsies
Don't care about the characters too much but love the theme. Tbh I've always been a fan of XY music so not a surprise. The part from 0:12 to 0:41 has always been my fav from the OG theme, glad they extended it
I'm sure she might pair with it for special alts. or perhaps.. different trainers gonna have it instead..😰 Darn it, DENA have the tendency to give Pokemon that are fitting for specific trainer characters with matching colour, resemble appearance, different regions & etc to other different characters.. such as Hilda from Gen 5 with Mega Diancie from Gen 6..
@@rogue1248 Um.. You mistaken that with Trevor. Tierno used Blastoise in Anipoke. He competed against Sawyer with his Mega Blastoise. But anyway, Masters is usually faithful on GameVerse. So, he paired up either Corpish & Crawdunt.
@wikiuser92 While I agree that the Calem of this game is based on the rival b/c he comes w/ an Espurr first and participates in the rival event, it's also worth noting that the Serena of this game is the one that chose Froakie at the beginning of her journey, and Calem simply encountered a shiny Froakie some time during his journey. It would also make sense if Serena's initial unit, which comes w/ a basic Fennekin that she has to evolve, was gifted to her by a certain rival who canonically does such a thing in the XY post game. This wouldn't be a factor if her Delphox was fully evolved from the start, like her Greninja. So giving Shauna a Chesnaught is actually completely devoid of any sense... if it was the same Shauna as the one these two protags traveled w/. This one might be from an alt universe where Calem was the player character and Serena was the rival or sth like that.
@zjzr08 It was confirmed that Fennekin wasn't b/c it's in its basic form that you have to evolve. Also, she doesn't really mention anything about the fox as a part of her past in any of her quotes, but in her sync pair story w/ Gren, she says, "We've been together a long time since our days in Kalos," which I'm just taking as confirmation for myself.
@@emerfirek yeah its honestly odd that Shauna has a Chesnaught if she "canonically" gave serena a Fennekin Egg since she usually gives the egg based on what starter she has.

I really love how they used the "A New Meeting" leimotif
I hope they will add Friends Forever too in some way.
@@Theloster I hope so too
I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t on the verge of tears listening to this. Take me back 10 years bro. My heart…
Pokemon showdown official ost (remake)
Makes me want to replay X&Y!
Showdown vibes lmao
Lmao
Pure x and y vibe in this one and you know what I absolutely love it x and y have great music

Pokémon Showdown National Anthem
So sad Shauna didn't get Goodra....still gonna pull for her.
I'm sure she might pair with it for special alts.
or perhaps.. different trainers gonna have it instead..😰 Darn it, DENA have the tendency to give Pokemon that are fitting for specific trainer characters with matching colour, resemble appearance, different regions & etc to other different characters.. such as Hilda from Gen 5 with Mega Diancie from Gen 6..
i pray that Tierno gets a mega charizard Y like in the anime.

They're not good enough rivals to get the "Rival" tag in their theme LMAO
Tbh, none of them really wanted to compete with you so I never saw them as rivals. Same goes for Arven and Penny from SV
I was expecting Chesnaught to go to a Sygna suit Calum to be honest.
Nah. Calem in Masters is based on the rival, not the player character, so him getting Greninja makes more sense.

Goosebumps! I really love this song back then! Friendly and fun rival battle!
Oh great... Trevor and Tierno are here... hooray... 😒
No…
You can’t give the most boring rivals in Pokemon a good theme…
YOU CAN’T DO THIS!!!
