      I also love how each main instrument is symbolic of each iteration
      The Erhu symbolizing the past and the Keytar symbolizing the future
      Man I wish more games did stuff like that

    This is not only one of my favorite themes in the entire Pokemon franchise, but one of my favorite pieces of music to ever come from a Nintendo DS game. In addition to this being one of my favorite compositions in the series and out of all games on the DS, Pokemon Black/White has the most crystal-clear, rich-sounding soundbase I've ever heard out of any MIDI set ever used for the DS hardware.

    Personally, I have both versions and I feel that this tune better reflects what really is, or should be what Opelucid City is like. It just seems to fit Unova better.

    This song is so beautiful and relaxing. I find myself singing along whenever I'm in Opelucid and I'll stand next to the guy near the Center and just close my eyes and drift away

  • @JcDizon

    Having a direct sequel that takes place 2 years later is better than having a third version in my opinion

    • @yamatanoorochi3149
      @yamatanoorochi3149 26 วันที่ผ่านมา

      true but then again I'd still like to see a version with the original legendary that Reshiram and Zekrom formed with Kyurem
      it's just so so cool to think about what kind of pokemon it would've been, and what it represented
      gen 5 had this slightly more philosophical take on story that I just loved to bits

  • @compatriot852
    @compatriot852 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +23

    I miss when Pokemon used to have a wide range of traditional music like this.
    So much more intriguing than constant techno/electric

  • @notnotandrew
    @notnotandrew 12 ปีที่แล้ว +24

    Whenever I go here and hear the first few bars, I'm incapacitated and forced into a melancholy, contemplative mood in which I must sit and reflect for a bit. One of the few places where I opt to walk rather than ride the bike, haha. Way better than Black's- it fits the story at this point very well (as well as the music of the route after it).
    Occasionally, Pokémon games have songs that just really grab you. In DPPt, it's outside the Pkmn League. In BW, it's this masterpiece right here.

  • @ShinSatsuka
    @ShinSatsuka 13 ปีที่แล้ว +12

    I didn't realize the town themes were THAT radically different. I like Black's version, but White is much more worthy in my ears.

  • @slipperybiscuits4864
    @slipperybiscuits4864 3 ปีที่แล้ว +21

    Whenever I get to Opelucid City, I always stop and listen to this theme. This is what inspired me to get White 2. So damn good

  • @PkmnTrainerEmerald
    @PkmnTrainerEmerald 6 ปีที่แล้ว +29

    I feel like this theme really represents the games better. The theme is a bit gloomy which fits in with what occurs with Team plasma just as you enter the city. After they leave the citizens reflect on themselves and the situation is just made much more dire as by this point in most games, the villain team is dealt with but not here, with them getting closer to their goal.

  • @spiritomb108

  • @Messi-rw9ng
    @Messi-rw9ng 7 ปีที่แล้ว +105

    Wait...if the white forest is black city's past counterpart (they are in the same location and pkmn white is set in the near past) doesn't that mean that the white forest was destroyed due to the urbanization of the area? Same with many of the cities including white's Opelucid. Kinda makes me sad. In a way, this resembles our real life modern day as technology ever advances changing how things are viewed and seen around us. The music also, is changed to a more future electronic taste in Black compared to the use of an Ehru and a piano in White.

    • @sammyfox9109
      @sammyfox9109 2 ปีที่แล้ว +21

      They are both set in the same time, whats different is the emphasis of truth and ideals, one being emblematic of the truths passed down through generations, thus the old rustic city and forests, and the other being emblematic of idealism, breaking from the past and looking to the future, ever pushing onward, hence high tech opalucid and black city.
      The two games are simply set in a unova that had different values at the forefront of its development

  • @hexbug101
    @hexbug101 4 ปีที่แล้ว +9

  • @kagemaru397
    @kagemaru397 11 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    That would have been cool. But I think the way it is fits b/c (from what I've heard) Black is supposed to be futuristic, and White is supposed to be in the past.

    Well other towns in the same game also have a sound close to it, but what I mean is the genre-kind of music, like, slow and something you would expect of pokemon... But I wouldn't have expected techno in the black opelucid!

    You know what I would like? A Unova game where the main pokemon is the Swords of Justice. During the events of the game you would encounter the Members of The Swords of Justice, on Skyarrow Bridge you will fight next to Keldeo and Cobalion and before the final battle they will all appear and you can choose which one you want to catch.

    Yeah but theres No Z chromasome.. Well there is one but its found in birds... But since we have Yveltal who is Y which is a human chromasome that wouldnt make another sense... And Besides Xeneas is based on X horizontal thats why its a deer andYveltal is Y because its Vertical a avian animal. And besides The plot might have genetics as a backup meaning but the names are on XYZ hence it being the first 3D game and the region is inspired by france were XYZ orginated from.

  • @Nazuiko

    Human modernization seems a selfish yearning for global facilitation... at the expense of all other life.
    Is a compromise not possible? Mmm... it is a game like this, and music like this, that leads to such thought and comparison. Truth, that which is and has been, or ideals, in want for change...?
    In the past, modernization is characterized by ideals, thus symbolized by Zekrom. Now that artificiality reigns supreme, a new truth has been founded, and different ideals would serve to change it.
