i love the part at 0:03 where it's super quiet but the tension's still just building, it really does encapsulate the feeling of staring the other trainer down right as the battle's starting
Such a treat to hit 1st gen Pokemon again! Due to the holidays, pushing songs to stores is taking a bit longer, so I'm sorry about the delay. However thanks to Materia Collective helping out, you can get this song from my Bandcamp right now! familyjules7x.bandcamp.com/album/battle-vs-trainer-from-pok-mon-red-and-blue This is is also available to Silver Level supporters along with the tabs . Trust me, you're going to want to learn this one, it's REALLY fun. Thanks for all the support and I hope you guys are all having a wonderful holidays. :)
I seriously screamed at my phone when I got the notification this was up! I love both the simplicity and complexity you've captured in this melody! Other people have a tendency to overdo the 'metal' of songs. You are able to make it metal while still allowing the other instruments shine through when and where they need to. I always love your take on Pokémon songs. :)
Well, you've done it. This is going to be a Megadeth morning for me. I've had The Disintegrators in my head for weeks so it's time. (underrated?) I'm interested in which song you think would best represent a good bassline? I didn't use to have a good enough ear to really appreciate those back when I was really into Megadeth.
yes, that's why the blue version is best out of all the different kanto themes, later version do not highlight this bassline. this bassline is deeply anxiety inducing and makes the song
@@matthewrileymcleanwilkinson Honestly thank you for that. My friend and I have been on Mom jokes again recently. (....before anyone else says it - I've been on your mom again recently!)
This is one of my favorite covers you’ve ever done Jules! The sick bass riff in the beginning and the amazing guitar melody throughout the video is fantastic!
@@matttacticnintendo1 Jon doesn't live there anymore? Didn't know that, hope they didn't break up Btw, same place Jon recorded arabian knights with toxicxeternity, killer one.
It’s nice knowing there’s so many people that appreciate the game OST more then the actual game. Not that I’m shitting on game, I love Pokemon but it’s great to know that people love game OST as much as I do ;)
Played Red again last year and it dawned on me this battle theme was too metal to not have a proper cover, so I searched and i found this. This. This is what it deserved. Thank you. I'm listening still for Sword! :)
Hell FUCKING YES! THIS is how you do covers! Your experimentation with instrumentation and the composition and the format and UGH! IT'S SO GOOD! You never left the song or felt like you were just noodling, you always kept to it but you made it your own thing and fucking killed it in the process. Good SHIT Jules. One dislike: Junichi Masuda is jelly.
I have genuinely missed this kind of work. Watching you play is one thing, watching you have fun is another. This is up there with Gruntilda's Lair for me on how much fun it is to just watch you at work.
man this gives me such nostalgia for when i first subscribed to your channel. i LOVED your pokemon covers back in the early days, and it's been amazing to watch you improve and grow. yet another absolutely glorious cover!
Even before I got halfway through, I put a 'like' on this! First-gen Trainer Battle theme is great enough already, and this just makes it even more so.
You can't because of the limitations of the Game Boy's sound chip. There's literally not enough channels, and not the correct types of channels, to handle FamilyJules' arrangement. NES technology (side note, the Game Boy and Game Boy Color are, in laymans terms, more or less the same as the NES) doesn't just "play the sounds", there's a lot more to it than that. You can get a sense for this by using software like FamiTracker, which allows you to create music in a way that's compatible with NES period tech.
Jules must be a Steel type trainer considering this is metal.
It's also fire so who knows?
Most definitely an Electric/Steel type
@@raienryu1334 If he was electric/steel, boy help him if the ground type totally fucks him over.
@@OniMalco magnetons can levitate so
@@S9staryu Jules can levitate too?
I like how Jules put the "I won, so give me my money and experience points jingle" at the end....classic.
that breakdown at 2:22 gets me everytime. so awesome dude!
I think you mean 2:41
@@Goblin_Hands No, I'm pretty sure he means 2:22.
ToxicxEternity knows what he means! like its sooooo gooood
2:22

Absolute gem!
A Ruby or a sapphire?
I can't get tired of this song, doesn't matter if I've been listening to it for 20 years. This cover is really awesome :D
But it's only been 4

The rain can't stop Jules from having a cool af background. Killer cover!
Hi! I like shorts! They're comfy and easy to wear!
Saaaaaaame.
Idk...I'm 23% sure Sephiroth does not like shorts...or short things in general.
@@Goblin_Hands what about Eggman?
@@channelbanned2242 No way...Eggman grew too tall in Sonic Adventure onwards. Sephiroth wouldn't like Eggman.
I usually save mine for summertime.
I felt that intro bassline deep in my very soul-- Megadeth would be proud!

An awesome metal cover of one of the best trainer battle themes in the series. I could listen to this all day
This will always be the best trainer battle theme. It has the right intensity and flow to make it truly feel like a battle to come out on top.
well this was heavy as balls. nice chromatic runs you got therrrrr
What's a chromatic run?
@Samyers 0616 and playing the semi-tones
@Samyers 0616 it doesn't have to be in both directions, so to be honest 'playing the semitones' is a more accurate description
@@matthewrileymcleanwilkinson Honestly thank you for that. My friend and I have been on Mom jokes again recently. (....before anyone else says it - I've been on your mom again recently!)
There is never enough pokemon metal. This is amazing!
Not even 200K views. Ridiculously underrated. Easily the best rendition of this song.
This is one of my favorite covers you’ve ever done Jules! The sick bass riff in the beginning and the amazing guitar melody throughout the video is fantastic!
This was so much better than I thought it was gonna be
Those harmonies you added to the lead guitars around 2:33 were such a standout, they sound gorgeous! This whole cover is so good, fantastic work
Can we please get the rest of the battle themes??
Champion Blue theme, please!
Vs. Trainer red.
A medley will be a great idea.
X/Y trainer battle!
@@_PillarofAutumn 5:29
TFW you realize this was a metal song the whole time
Dude... there are no words for this cover. I'm near crying from nostalgia thanks to this!.... I HAD AN AWESOME CHILDHOOD!!!
this is exactly what it needed to sound like. this is how I've always heard it in my head lol
Same filming place as Jonathan Young's "be our guest"?! Nice. Perfect rendition of this Pokémon song too!
Its his house, Jon used to live there too along with Richaadeb
@@matttacticnintendo1 Jon doesn't live there anymore? Didn't know that, hope they didn't break up
Btw, same place Jon recorded arabian knights with toxicxeternity, killer one.
i think pokemon battle music is the first metal music i loved
Some classic pokémusic is always welcome! Congrats on finishing the dex, you really caught them all :^)
Couldn't of ended that more perfectly
Just... WOW😍
FamiliyJules doing justice to this incredible master piece!
Dude perfect, every note was noticed and played perfectly.
I’m blown away. Thanks for this amazing rendition, Jules
FamilyJules! I choose YOU!
*plays metal music*
What will FamilyJules do?
Fight
PkMn
Bag
Run
(Did I get it right? Correct me if I'm wrong)
I love this Trainer Battle theme ( Kanto) Version and every cover is awesome and FamilyJules you Metaled it!! 👍👍
The reason I found this channel many moons ago was looking at pokemon metal covers to do homework to. Fantastic as ever Jules!
Haven't played Pokémon in years and this video just punched me in the face with nostalgia. Great job 🤘.
...i'm not gonna do it. i am *not*--
"FamilyJules used nostalgia! It's super-effective!"
This is definitely one of my favourite covers you've done! Keep up the solid work my man!
This cover made me cry 🥲 This game helped me go through my tough childhood... Thank you so much for this!
It’s nice knowing there’s so many people that appreciate the game OST more then the actual game.

The original song felt very metal inspired, and you did it great justice in this remake.
Hell FUCKING YES! THIS is how you do covers! Your experimentation with instrumentation and the composition and the format and UGH! IT'S SO GOOD! You never left the song or felt like you were just noodling, you always kept to it but you made it your own thing and fucking killed it in the process. Good SHIT Jules.
One dislike: Junichi Masuda is jelly.
I 😆🤣🤣 after 3:25, Really good job there!!😉👍
Mate, after that I think you're kinda obligated to do the gym leader battle theme next.
That was so damn good!
It's not every day where I can effortlessly hum along to the harmony line. Pokémon music is that good that I've just learned it over time!
This production quality lately is absolutely mind-boggling. Keep up the good work Julesy-boy.
YOU DARE CROSS MY LINE OF SIGHT?!?
I love the backgrounds in this video!
Wasnt expecting to also have the victory music also. Makes it even better.
I jammed the like button before this thing hit 10 seconds. Only you can make these covers THIS good!
I hadn't even realized how much I needed this until right now. Thank you, you made my evening.
I have genuinely missed this kind of work. Watching you play is one thing, watching you have fun is another. This is up there with Gruntilda's Lair for me on how much fun it is to just watch you at work.
The part at 2:40 is extremely impressive.
I've been waiting for someone to do this for a long time and you did it perfectly.
Ooof, my innards have been rocked by nostalgia! Great work as always Jules!
By far, the best one I've heard on TH-cam yet
man this gives me such nostalgia for when i first subscribed to your channel. i LOVED your pokemon covers back in the early days, and it's been amazing to watch you improve and grow. yet another absolutely glorious cover!
SENSACIONAL!
that pause at the beginning is so freaking epic
This is criminally underwatched, great cover!!
This theme gives me insane nostalgia from the first game I ever owned, a Pokemon Blue on the Gameboy Color. Good times!
I'm willing to bet this is gonna be used in a lot of Smash Ultimate Pokémon montages now. Amazing job as always
this is my childhood god bless whoever came up with this kick ass music
Your music makes me so truly happy to be a family of video games. Keep up the good work
I feel like this is how that theme was always suppose to sound. You totally rocked it man!
This was insane! Great job. This is possibly one of my favorites you've done! thanks for all the hard work you put into your content.
Simple stuning, amazing work, this piece is just to epic for a normal trainer battle, but every time I get goosebumps!
FamilyJules: A man who makes standing in a mostly empty room look (and sound!) awesome.
I keep coming back to this amazing cover...
THIS IS THE BEST VIDEO OF ALL TIME
this is sick af, i love this. your covers are always so uniquely *you* somehow and i love them
i suspect this is how the original music was imagined to sound like but wasn't able to be due to technical constraint. good job man!
That big fat Bass is just a beauty!
Even before I got halfway through, I put a 'like' on this! First-gen Trainer Battle theme is great enough already, and this just makes it even more so.
Awesomely epic as always =3
I think I can speak for most of us when I say I’d be more than thrilled with more classic Pokémon covers!
Or newer ones, not picky!
Same sound as when I was playing red and blue as a child. :-D
2:00 gave me chills
How can I replace the original battle theme from Pokémon Red and Blue to this masterpiece on my GB emulator?
You can't because of the limitations of the Game Boy's sound chip. There's literally not enough channels, and not the correct types of channels, to handle FamilyJules' arrangement.

Methinks we have to build a new engine in modern tech to restore old gems that well.
Like goldeneye in the cry3 engine.
Sounds VERY much like Pokémon Stadium. I freaking love it!
This is so goddamn polished and amazing. Holy shit.
I've been a fan since day one... and that scale, is by far the most difficult. You slayed that shit bro.
Loved the ending! Nice twist
We made eye contact!!! Let's battle!
Good shit as always jules!!
Absolutely PHENOMENAL. Everything about this makes me physically engorged, if you know what I mean.
Imo easily the best trainer battle theme ever!
As soon as I saw this in my feed I had to click on it. Amazing as always
One of the greatest songs. Its sooo amazing
omg FJ you are a god, this is freaking amazing
Damn this is so hype o__o you hit the notes perfectly!
Absolutely incredible, so very talented!!
A classic my dude!
that's a savage Shiny interpretation
the notice to detail is very important, fucking sick
I really needed this today
They should have asked him to do the soundtrack for pokemon let's go. Masterful!
This sounds amazing
Damn dude, that's one hell of a cover!
I dig this so much dude. Keep up the good work and the talent
Insane work here!
Imagine a red POV montage of his life becoming the best trainer in the world, leading up till he’s an old man with this song in the background
I foresee a collab with Jonathan Young in our future...
