I remember I returned to Pokémon during my late teen years and my mother heard the Pokémon centre theme and said "oh you're playing Pokémon?", Always stood to me how she recognised it still after a few years of it being absent from her
Music in Pokemon games is as important as the gameplay itself. Without the music it would feel baren and empty. No excitement, no sense of wonder, no satisfaction when you battle anyone or a wild pokemon. In a way, besides the pokemon themselves, the music makes pokemon what it is.
wow, what a video, although I think the title should be less specific on how it's made and rather a brief introduction to Junichi Masuda and what, or rather how he, makes pokemon music unique. the part about N's song is very very interesting.
Very true. Masuda may have composed the iconic soundtrack of og red & blue, but Ichinose and Sato are also essential to define the "feel" of pkmn music
1. This video is amazing. Ive always been searching for more in-depth discussions about pokemon music, as i want to improve as a music producer. 2. The editing is insane. You deserve far more subs. You've earned my sub, ill tell ya that. looking forward to more vids
Similar case here, im designing a fan-game based on scandinavia(sweden,norway,denmark and finland) And he was very informative and his ediring work was splendid. He has earned my trusted sub too
"The geography of the Sinnoh region is based on the geography of the Japanese island of Hokkaido and southern part of the Russian island Sakhalin, as well as Kunashir, which is claimed by Japan, but administered by Russia. Sinnoh has been said to be an island like Hoenn, rather than a peninsula." bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Sinnoh www.thegamer.com/pokemon-region-real-world-country-inspiration/
@@Korex970 that doesn't conflict with what i said. I spoke about Arceus' temple architecture and other small hints refering to Ancient Greece. Do not forget that Japanese people hold ancient Greece in high esteem!
@ 6:10 "The length of the notes are also in eighths, another prime number..." This is incorrect. 8 is not a prime number. Neither is 1/8 since it does not even belong to the same numbering system.
Nice Vid, but one Insult. In German you pronounce the Note G like "Geh", so with long E in the end. And C# is pronounced Cis, not Tsis. Even though good Job ! ✌
@@trizyurx I just googled, and it appears I was wrong. Whether or not LGPE are in the core series is irrelevant to this video anyway, since they re-use the music from the original games.
It’s kinda funny how once the regions stopped being based off actual regions in Japan, the quality of the music dropped. Ngl tho the sound tracks from the OG GB color days are the best hands down ❤
a little error around 6:08, 8 is not a prime number whoops lol
wow, i cant believe you would make such a important mistake (/j)
This guy dropped the best edited video on pokemon music on the platform, created a masterpiece as if nothing happened and never returned to it

That is so fucking cute oh my god.
WTF THE EDITING IS TOO GOOD
thank u!
Very good!
Insane. I was losing my mind when he was introducing all the games.

Same with the Mario and Luigi series
I hate to be this person, but you’re so right. A prime example is Palworld.
Sick video man, editing on point as always.
thank u!!
I never expected such a small channel to have this quality of editing. Incredible work and very underrated video 👏

Where did you learn about the N's theme prime numbers thing? That is absolutely wild and I love it
From Masuda's own blog post! You can check it out here: www.gamefreak.co.jp/blog/dir_english/category/6/index.html
The intro with the games transition was top tier
Yeaaa! Loved this. Great analysis and explanation! Enjoyed your edits. Thanks for your time and energy going into this! Everyone here appreciates you!

Sawk: Rats, I was enjoying the Tepiggyback ride.
desperately need more vids on pokemon music like this i come back to it all the time 😭
weird lack of any mention of go ichinose and hitomi sato, who have probably composed like 75% of the main music since gen 3
Very true. Masuda may have composed the iconic soundtrack of og red & blue, but Ichinose and Sato are also essential to define the "feel" of pkmn music
How does this have so few views like holy shit this editing is so good more people deserve to see this
Wtf dude this is such high quality content! You deserve way more views!
How tf do you only have 535 subs?! For great editing, you should have a lot more!
"Technical limitations" like the missing finger of Geezer Butler.
this video is crazy good man. keep it hp
This video is so high quality, I bet a lot of time went into this
Wow, was NOT expecting the strange chord resolution comment.
SS Anne's Theme is my most fondly remembered theme and piece.
BRO WHY IS YOUR EDITING SO FUCKING GOOD?!
no ur cooler 😎😎
This video is so well edited!
the quality is so high on this, its been 2 years since posting, so how the actual fuck has this not broken at least 100k views
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Absolutely crazy quality of this video! how does it not have more views!

you will never be a good producer.

This video will blow up in views soon!
Editing Pog
Lots of effort on the visuals. Quite nice.
6:13 eighths, another prime number?
For some reason Masuda keeps the themes rather simple almost always staying the same octaves in most songs.
Oof, almost sent this to my 11 year old guitar student...glad I watched it first! Really good video though!
I try my best to figure out how Pokemon music is made to make similar stuff
A masterpiece of editing. A rare pearl of internet
Trainer theme brought me here
Nice job sir
thanks chef
Sinnoh based on Japan, yet Arceus and it's temple based on ancient Greek architecture. Also there are more hints in this game for Greece.
"The geography of the Sinnoh region is based on the geography of the Japanese island of Hokkaido and southern part of the Russian island Sakhalin, as well as Kunashir, which is claimed by Japan, but administered by Russia. Sinnoh has been said to be an island like Hoenn, rather than a peninsula."

it boggles me that a video this well edited has barely 1k likes
Great video but a bit of a pro tip: the music should never be louder than the voice, even if they're not playing at the same time.
I joined band to be able to play pokemon music i play alto saxiphone btw
1:10 left out Pokemon X & Y
How did you do the intro at the beginning where the camera zooms back on all the pokemon games? Is there a tutorial that you used from youtube?
That joke at the start killed it for me
Pokemon music is magical ❤️
Along with the Mario and Luigi RPG series
Did you really forget Hitomi Sato at 4:11 😭
His editing in the beginning is good
yea this guy is kinda sick
What was that absolute bop in the beginning for the meme part
driftveil city from pokemon black and white!
4:45 NOOOO
*underrated*

please come back to this channel, i just discovered you and love it. if you keep working on this you *will* grow it big.

LGPE are not main series games
