everything's just RIGHT in this one. the balance is really good and clean and every instrument was immaculately chosen and tweaked. I love this one man
Managed to catch the tail end of this livestream yesterday, so I was super excited for the final version! My favorite champion, you did his theme amazing justice~
I remember hearing Omega Ruby’s version of this theme. It was good, but … wait… Zame made a remaster that blows it out of the water??? Whelp, Zame wins this battle. Steven better give the new music champion his throne. Keep up the awesome work Zame!
A friend of mine used Primal Groudon. It didn't turn out very well as it was slower than his Mega Metagross and got two shot by duel flinch and crit Giga Impacts. Yeah, I thought that was pretty funny and didn't let him hear the end of it. Our conversations were like. "~I told you that you shouldn't just cheese it and speedrun through the final battle~" "shut the fuck up, I don't wanna hear it." "Did I tell you beat his Mega Metagross with my Mega Beedrill that you said was the worst new Mega Evolution introduced?" "Shut up, you just taught it Drill Run!" "Wait, it can learn what?" ". . . ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDIMG ME?! WHAT MOVES DID YOU TRACH IT?!" "Twin Needle, Venoshock, Sludge Wave, and Fell Stinger." "YOU RAN SPECIAL POISON TYPE MOVES ON A FUCKING BEEDRILL THAT YOU USED AS YOUR MEGA!?!" "Yeah, adaptability plus Fell Stinger and Twin Needle hits twice and is the only way to Poison a Steel Type Pokémon remember?" Yeah, I had a habit of pissing him off as someone who had never done competitive or even battling in my life up to Gen 8 and both unintentionally trolling him with my ignorance and noviceness and ocaisionally stalling with Poison and Badly Poison status Conditions while my Pokemon knew combinations semi invulnerable two turn moves like Fly and Dig and protect. How fitting that my best Gen 8 competitive teams are a Falinks with Defiant and Salac berry and no retreat, flinch hax togekiss with Bright powder, a typical Aegislash with Kings Rock, and the three hidden ability Galar Starters without their better Isle of Armor Move Tutor moves and a Sand team with Gigalith, Lycanroc Dusk Form, Tyranitar, Excadrill, Scizor, and G-Max Sandaconda. You can tell that these are more novice competitive when they have no Legendaries or move tutor moves and they still have managed to beat Shadow Rider Calyrex, Intimidate Incineroar and Lando T, Zacian Crown Sword Hyper offense based teams than any other core I've ever faced 😅
@@tylertichoc7330 and then they all clapped. Lmao the only way you can't solo Steven in ORAS with Primal Groudon is if you're severely underlevelled or genuinely brain damaged. Bruh I speedran the league with Blaziken holding a charcoal lmao.
I can still remember it now all those years ago. Facing Steven for the first time and banking on my Kyogre having enough PP to defeat him since the rest of my team except for (Graveler and Sceptile) didnt have any chance against his Pokemon.
I can't get over how much I adore your covers. So. damn. good! You always capture the amazing that is Pokémon music. And yet, throughout the song, there are always those little unique touches that belong to you. Thank you for creating and sharing. 🤗
I always imagined myself throwing my Pokéballs with a horizontal spin. And then my first battle with Steven Stone happened with that epic fully Animated 3D character model Battle intro happened. Yeah, I was floored like the silver and glass squared crystal tiled battlefield we were standing on.
Hey Zame, killer remaster! Just one small detail I think you should've added. At 0:31, in Steven's ORAS theme, there is a little laser beam sound effect like a gunshot going off. Its quite noticeable in the ORAS theme so it would be really cool if you added that sound effect in this remaster as well. Makes it sound just like the remaster but a remastered remaster. I guess you could say Zame is a master at remastering remasters.
I started on the Gen 1 spin-off games like Stadium, but Sapphire was my first Pokémon game from the mainline games, and it's still my favorite game of all time. Pokémon is amazing.
My highlight of Alpha Sapphire was beating Steven's Mega Metagross with my Mega Swampert. I used up all of my healing items up to that point and I was about to lose to Mega Metagross's Psychic when my Mega Swampert toughed it out and followed up with a Power-Up Punch and won. On one of my Ruby run,s I won against Metagross using a Blaziken with Fire Blast after they almost died to Meteor Mash. So, yeah- thanks for your music, Zame.
Honestly listening to the first part I could tell you had made it better after the stream. I personally also didn't expect you to come back to it as soon as you did from your previous one you made even if that was at least 2 or 3 years ago
I literally just stumbled upon this channel randomly (Praise the algorithm I guess? lol) But your music SLAPS my guy never hit the subscribe button faster in my life, great work!
This is by far my favorite champion theme in all of pokemon...but my PFP kind of gives that away huh? Swampert buddy...you have served me well for nearly 6 generations of pokemon games.
Thing is, I saw you from AA and PKMN comps, and since my favorite champ is Steven, I decided to check in on your(nicely organized) playlists As you can guess, this made my day.
Bro i love your style so much its so consistantly good, i actually think cynthias theme is overrated (still great though) and i think steven's theme is better. Here is my order Red/lance Iris N (if you count it) Steven Cynthia Blue Hau Diantha Alder Kukui Leon I dont know about you but i just hate the newer champion themes where there is little to no intensity and it just sounds like you won already. Leons literally takes inspiration from the hall of fame theme :(. Anyway yeah thank you for this
@@toonlinkssbb515 it’s weird everyone claims cynthia is the strongest yet I had no problems. Where else stevens mega meta gross gave me PTSD especially when it KO-D my groudon
Ngl they should remake Ruby and Sapphire again in the Nintendo Switch. It would be amazing if they made Steven's Theme way more awesome and make him powerful close to as BDSP Cynthia.
I don't think sharing the Hoenn champion motifs with Steven was a bad thing, but I think Wallace needed different instrumentation. Maybe something along the lines of the Pokémon Masters theme for Wallace.
Only problem i always had with this theme is that it could easily fit as a trainer battle theme, its basically as intense as the gen 6 or gen 7 trainer themes at most

Can I use this as an outro? I'll credit you homes~
RSE trumpets, BW2 guitars and ORAS synths.
The definitive version of the theme right here
everything's just RIGHT in this one. the balance is really good and clean and every instrument was immaculately chosen and tweaked. I love this one man
No wonder Steven Stone is obsessed with rocks
Well look who I've spotted here, if it ain't the one and only StickMaster500!
"ThEy'Re MiNeRaLs"
You're definitely the best music remixer I've ever found! I love your remixes so much! Great work! :D
Managed to catch the tail end of this livestream yesterday, so I was super excited for the final version! My favorite champion, you did his theme amazing justice~
This is by far my favourite remix from you Zame. It's so energetic and has lots of variety in each section. I love it!
Aw man, this goes incredibly hard… It’s great to hear this theme again, especially in Zame style!!!
Dude, your Remixes are always the best!
I remember hearing Omega Ruby’s version of this theme. It was good, but … wait… Zame made a remaster that blows it out of the water??? Whelp, Zame wins this battle. Steven better give the new music champion his throne. Keep up the awesome work Zame!
Omega rubis cool but rubis base
Just wait till he remasters the bw2 version
Eh. Both are good. But ORAS's version has more oomf to it.
Kyogre makes this fight way too easy lol, however, the music was a jammer, and you've majorly improved on it. Well done
Why did you use kyogre is you are groudon

5 years later Zame revisited this very epic theme.
I was so hyped to hear it since I was on the live yesterday ! You really nailed this one, thank you for your work 😊
i was literally listening to the oras steven theme 2 days ago, 100% the best champion theme
I can still remember it now all those years ago. Facing Steven for the first time and banking on my Kyogre having enough PP to defeat him since the rest of my team except for (Graveler and Sceptile) didnt have any chance against his Pokemon.
Is it me anybody else thought Steven is an old man when you first meet him in emerald or is it me?
Also awesome remaster.
Steven and his oversized tie will never not be funny to me 🤣Lil bro looks like he went through his dads wardrobe 😂😂
Oh I’ve been waiting for a really good steven remix and finally, the clouds parted and lord Zame has blessed our ears once more!
The intro is like the ORAS one on steroids, in your face and going at hyper speed… I love it!
I can't get over how much I adore your covers. So. damn. good! You always capture the amazing that is Pokémon music. And yet, throughout the song, there are always those little unique touches that belong to you.

You make every theme sound and feel like final boss music. Awesome job.
This is superb, love this channel! 👏👏👏
I stan Gen 3 purely on Emerald being my first exposure to Pokémon.
It's been 16 years and I'm still a Pokémon fan
I started on the Gen 1 spin-off games like Stadium, but Sapphire was my first Pokémon game from the mainline games, and it's still my favorite game of all time. Pokémon is amazing.
The intro hits especially hard 💙

This is amazing, keep up the great work
The intensity is cranked up to an eleven. It somehow feels more epic and intense than the original!
10/10

Máximo 👊
Recuerdo cuando Metagross me tomo por sorpresa.
This is by far my favorite champion theme in all of pokemon...but my PFP kind of gives that away huh? Swampert buddy...you have served me well for nearly 6 generations of pokemon games.
Bro I love Hoenn so much. Thank you for such an excellent remaster as it is genuinely making me tear up. Love it so much have an amazing day
sounds amazing! i love the energy it gives!!:)
Thing is, I saw you from AA and PKMN comps, and since my favorite champ is Steven, I decided to check in on your(nicely organized) playlists
As you can guess, this made my day.
Bro i love your style so much its so consistantly good, i actually think cynthias theme is overrated (still great though) and i think steven's theme is better. Here is my order
Red/lance
Iris
N (if you count it)
Steven
Cynthia
Blue
Hau
Diantha
Alder
Kukui
Leon
I dont know about you but i just hate the newer champion themes where there is little to no intensity and it just sounds like you won already. Leons literally takes inspiration from the hall of fame theme :(. Anyway yeah thank you for this
Alder?
@@erc3338 Bruh thanks for the correction
Steven is a truly legendary character and his theme makes justice
Steven: They're not rock nor minerals Brendan, They've champions!
I'm so sorry for making that terrible reference. I'm just going to just leave now...
Only rivalled by Cynthia’s theme. Truly one of the best themes in the franchise.
Would still love to see a Battle between the 2 of them
@@toonlinkssbb515 totally.
@@toonlinkssbb515 let's hope for the anime
@@toonlinkssbb515 it’s weird everyone claims cynthia is the strongest yet I had no problems. Where else stevens mega meta gross gave me PTSD especially when it KO-D my groudon
In the anime, Cynthia is the second strongest trainer in the world, with Steven being the third, so we might actually get a battle between them soon
MY FAVOURITE CHAMPION THEME
Finally! A faithful rendition of this marvelous theme!
I'm sorry but I really want more gba hoenn stuff from you...
I can hear the original theme from r/s/e, i gotta give a like
Another zame remaster another great day

Can't wait for the Dianthas theme remix
Wow dude That really so cools remix ever That i have been hear,after hear this i immediatly clicking likes and subscribe your channel👍
Ngl they should remake Ruby and Sapphire again in the Nintendo Switch. It would be amazing if they made Steven's Theme way more awesome and make him powerful close to as BDSP Cynthia.
oh this brings back memorys of me trying about a week to defeat him lol
One of the best music.
🙌🙌🙌
fitting after playing the brutal rutile ruby
An epic theme - made better!
Still my favorite champion after all these years
this is religious proof why we need lets go hoenn/legends rayquaza asap
Damn bruh you're quick! I was at the stream yesterday and you're already done today.
Pwt if Honey successful in bringing the regional best in Galar.
One of the top comments claims that this is better than the ORAS version...
... he is right!
Sounds like you really *ironed* out the kinks in this song.
Seriously though, this is excellent.
❤️❤️❤️❤️
This Remix feels like RSE,ORAS,BLACK/WHITE 2
BTW, Steven in my opinion is one of the best Champion of the series, he is in my personal top 3.
Welp once again YT won't let me comment what I want to LOL. Stay safe and take care people 🖤
Awesome! 8D
I always thought this suited Wallace perfectly. Who agrees?
I don't think sharing the Hoenn champion motifs with Steven was a bad thing, but I think Wallace needed different instrumentation.
Maybe something along the lines of the Pokémon Masters theme for Wallace.
@@xreamed I guess you're right about that.
Who’s here after hearing that Steven is in the Master tier in Journeys
I watched some part of the live stream... I couldn't watch it whole :(
HGSS remix 🙏🙏🙏
Fkn claydol and armaldo causing havoc and giving me anxiety
The only champion to date that canonically has a Shiny Pokemon... which unfortunately doesn't exist in the games. :(
Don't forget Lance.
Only problem i always had with this theme is that it could easily fit as a trainer battle theme, its basically as intense as the gen 6 or gen 7 trainer themes at most
I think you just pointed out what makes me dislike those gen themes... thank you, I didn't notice
All hail Steven Stone 2nd to NONE! Amazing remix, Steven was an animal! Especially his Metagross!
