___________________________________________________________
The previous video of the battle themes had become a bit outdated and I wanted to make a new one. Also, playing the new generation motivated me to do it.
I want to clarify that this video is NOT a second part. I have made the video completely from 0 listening to all the battle themes of all the games, so you may be surprised that there are some changes from the previous video. I have also changed the version of some songs because I think both versions are great.
Finally, the video is just my opinion, but I love ALL the themes that appear here, and even many more that unfortunately don't appear. By that I mean even number 50 is a pretty good theme for me.

Quick question: do u ever intend on making a top encounter theme list? Just Curious.
It would be great! for now I'm taking a rest about creating videos, but I'm keeping this in mind in case I have more time and can do it in the future (hopefully not too far away). I love the idea! @@Kwiitchi
The first piece of music is called Pure Space from Brilliant Diamond & Shining Pearl
Penny's theme goes *h a r d*
why isnt raikous head white
Good list but some ones I missed were:
Dialga and Palkia theme
Ghetsis theme in BW
Zinnia theme
Champion Nemona theme
Guzma theme
Besides those it’s a very good list and very nostalgic
Guzma theme definitely should have been here
@@NapoleonicGeese still a great list but Guzma’s theme has always been one of my favorites
oras wally theme should have been here as well
Aether foundation grunt song is good
@@loganclark1206also a good one, kinda forgettable but still a banger
There are some notable exclusions to me, like Zinnia and Gen 4 Frontier Brain, but I appreciate some of the specific inclusions, like Galactic Commander (which is indeed the best Galactic battle theme imo)
Best galactic theme is admin theme from originals games
No, best galactic theme is Cyrus' theme from the original games
no colress is wild
No Colress??? Literally unwatchable
Colress theme is shit
@@ilovedemocracy9227 nuh uh
No Colress is a crime
@@ilovedemocracy9227everyone is entitled to wrong opinions
It's such a shame that SwSh were such deeply unsatisfying games to play. They really have some ridiculous bangers in them.
1:57 That Deoxys beat comes in cleannn maannn
Legendary soundtrack
I’m surprised the FRLGE one was on here and not the ORAS one
47:03 unbeatable
this with the blade cutting the screen intro was toptier
the most headbanging theme
8:12 i will forever enjoy that Iris intro
Same
Such high quality
❤❤❤❤IRIS THE SECOND FEMALE CHAMPION❤❤❤❤
I refuse to believe that Hop isn’t a literal mariokart 8 track
..then how about Bede 😂 he literally got a car screeching at the back in his battle theme
Pokémon Mario kart track 🤔
It reminds me of Colosseum and XD: Gale of Darkness!
Somebody said this on another video (making a joke about him being the forgotten Mario brother) and now I can't stop imagining him crash-landing in the Mushroom Kingdom, disappointing everyone by reminding them that he can't drive, and upon returning, Leon asking him what happened and his only response being:
"Well... our extended family is very strange."
I am always impressed by the music of gold, silver and cristal versions on gameboy. With so much limitations they managed to make really good music. If only Gamefreak team was continuing to push the limit of the technology. I appreciate a lot this top. Totally agree with the top 1 and with most of the top 10 :)
transitions? top notch! 🏆
theme choices? most excellent! 👏🏼
video overall? on repeat! 🔁
Damn this guy is so underrated he deserved more love
Thank you! I appreciate your words!
@@acordsjuganers You’re welcome, friend. What’re you planning for the next video? Maybe a Mario Kart top 50 map themes?
@@negatiff3411ninja hideaway sweep
@@acordsjuganers 46:21 is a top one in my book
Kanto Legendary theme slaps. I like the transition into the next song. Keep up the good work
I never expected a list to be so well thought out and have a trainer battle at number one. Awesome list
Awesome list but the best team battle ever is 48 🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡
@@issiaka269 bro is discovering what is an opinion
My Top 5
5. Zinnia's Theme - ORAS
4. Giratina Theme - DPPT
3. Ghetsis Theme - BW
2. Penny Theme - SV
1. Elite 4 Theme - SMUSUM
Penny theme for sure up there. Was surprised it was at 'only' 24th here.
Top tier content. Excellent edit 👍🏼
Ngl, Penny's theme at 24 is kinda underrated.
I was shocked to see my favorite (Sw&Sh Gym Leader) so far behind. Amazing list however. And I appreciate the suspense for the top 20 in the description
Leon in top 10, I so respect it. Doesn’t get enough love. Great list btw! Deserves more views!!!
You know this is a goated list when the top 6 on the list just so happen to also be my all time favourite songs in Pokemon too! Love it!
Thank you for making these top 50 videos! Finding so much good music c: the editing is so good too!!
Love your list and this a very well made video!
This video is both nostalgic and is helping me focus studying for exams, thank you for this
The way the Star Bosses are lined up in the video makes it look like Ortega is holding an electric guitar. 😁
✨ NOICE ✨
This list was awesome.. and then seeing number one.. my gosh I remember the first time I fought May.. on Ruby. What a grand time to be a kid when these games came out. Love how Gen 9 has some serious bangers in there. Honestly this is one of the best lists I’ve listened to.
My top 5:
5. Wally ORAS
4. Gym Leader FRLG
3. Lance/Red GSC
2. Cynthia DPP
1. Rival RSE
There are many many many themes I don’t recall, such as most of gens 5-7, and I haven’t played gen 9 yet
I like your top ! ❤
God that gen 3 rival battle theme always gives me chills
It sound like a 20 years old laptop and it’s normal, technology weren’t developed enough when those versions came out. I don’t blame anyone for those music and they are not bad at all, just the technology was bad. There is remakes for those themes. No way he put his stupid nostalgia over a real objective classement. Because ORAS are good remakes, the ost remakes are better too. The worst Pokémon music classement I have ever witnessed.
It being the theme for the secret steven fight makes it go that much harder - they acknowledge your character is strong enough to have a master Champion as a *rival*
@@issiaka269 okay lol
@@issiaka269
This is just my personal opinion, but I think that there is something good about that GBA sound source.
Of course, the sounds of ORAS songs are very beautiful and I like them, but there are also sound quality that could only be produced in games from 20 years ago, and instrument sounds that haven't yet been able to express an orchestra.
I like Rubisafa's BGM including all of them.
@@kyo-hey_fromPokemon bro u just nostalgik
Chills 🥶 1:06:35
Also, final volo fight in legends Arceus is true number one
No way Cynthia in BDSP and Evice in Colosseum are far harder than Volo
It took me 60 attempts to defeat Cynthia in Diamond (DS) and Evice in Colosseum and 56 attempts to defeat Volo.
Volo is a tough battle but its not a patch on Cynthia & Evice
@@AdamDawson3 ok but how old were you when you fighted Cynthia and Evice ?
@@flo4130 14 when I faced Evice and 17 the very first time I faced Cynthia on Diamond and Pearl and 19 when I faced her in Platinum
I was almost 32 when I first faced Volo
@@flo4130 I was 31 when I first played BDSP and then two months later when Legends Arceus was released was 32 in the middle of 2022
I was 14 when I first battled Evice
17 when I faced Cynthia in Diamond & Pearl
19 when I faced Cynthia in Platinum
31 when I faced Volo in Legends Arceus
I have never seen some of the top ten in anyone’s top ten but respect
My top 5:
5. Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire - May/Brendan
4. XY - Xerneas/Yveltal
3. Scarlet & Violet - Treasures of Ruin
2. Scarlet & Violet - Penny
1. Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon - Ultra Necrozma
*EDIT:* After the release of The Teal Mask, the ranking has changed: number 5 is Xerneas/Yveltal, number 4 is the Treasures of Ruin and number 3 is the Loyal Three.
👍
My top 5
1: Yveltal/Xerneas//Zygarde XY
2: Zinnia ORAS
3: Giratinas Legends Arceus
4: Diantha XY
5: Marnie SS
Hoenn: Trumpets
Sinnoh: Piano
Unova: Drums
Hot take: gen 7 had some of the best music in the series, with gladion’s theme, the champion themes, ultra necrozma, and even the kahunas/elite four😊
I agree 100%! Gen 7 ATE
oh for sure
i'm not even sure if that's a particularly hot take, i think you're just objectively correct, and anyone who says otherwise is a silly goofball
bw >>>>>>>> all
I appreciate that you actually had a good mix of gens; it felt like you were actually judging based on the music and not any bias towards which games you might prefer. Because obviously all Pokemon games have good songs in them. I would argue that increasing audio fidelity means that the last few gens can reach even greater heights, but it's awesome that older ones can still compete, especially since they all have remakes now.
I guess you didn't include Legends Arceus though? The Origin Forme Palkia/Dialga fight theme is currently my #1 favorite Pokemon song. Others in my top ten would be Team Star Admin, Island Kahuna, Eternatus Phase 3, Red/Lance, Unova Elite Four, and the Reshiram/Zekrom fight theme.
Nice a new top !
I like the top 10
My favorite theme is Silver from HGSS
I love silvers encounter music, when I was a kid I would just let it play for a min before I actually fought him haha
This is Awesome!!
Ngl, ALL of these hit so hard.
I love the sun and moon e4 theme, (probably my favorite e4 theme). It is just so tense and suspenseful!
You should listen to the Smash Ultimate remix. It's a certified banger
the Gen 3 and Gen 5 e4 themes outrank the Gen 7 e4 theme by a mile my dudes.
Oh that May/Brendan theme appreciation deserves a sub holy moly
Ngl, I don’t care about the list. I’m just enjoying the music
YESSS the gen 3 battle theme is soooo goood.
Battle! Giratina is my ultimate favorite Pokemon OST.... not just battle theme!! My favorite track. Period. But it doesn't seem to be a particularly popular one. :')
Was excited my other top three (Zero Lab and Ultra Necrozma) made an appearance, though! I really do like a lot of battle themes... it's mostly what I listen to when I listen to Pokemon music... kind of makes me want to make my own list.... lol. Great video!

Personal Top 5:
(Honorable Mention): N Final Battle

4. BW/BW2 Elite Four
3. D/P Cynthia
2. Prof Sada and Turo
1. Platinum Frontier Brain Theme
Commenting for bump due to the effort you musta gone through for the visual effects.
Hella extra mile stuff right here; not to mention the based choice of battle osts
1:28:23 YESSSSSS!!!!! ❤️🔥🔥🎺🎶🔥
Huge thanks@!!!!!
1 AI Turo and Sada
2 Penny
3 Ultra Necrozma
4 Leon
5 Volo
I haven't heard the first one at all and was very surprised by how good it sounds 😲
Good video. And good choice of themes.
IMO:
5. Vs N final B&W
4. Vs Cyrus D/P/P
3. Vs Elite four Alola S&M
2. Vs Red/Lance HG&SS
1. Vs Cynthia D/P/P
Honorable mentions: Vs Bede S&S, Vs Marnie final battle S&S, Vs Champion hau US/UM, Vs Lusamine first battle S&M, Vs Guzma S&M, Vs Blue FR/LG, Vs Colress B&W2, Vs Champion Iris B&W2
The fact that the Scarlet and Violet tracks placed so highly, placing higher than some classics even without the backing of years (and in some cases, decades) of nostalgia, demonstrates the true quality and raw power of the SV ost. The ost, especially the professors theme, is criminally underrated amongst the Pokémon community. I also think that what you did for the description of the video is a creative idea. I disagree with some placements, but as a whole it is a solid list.
Personally I think legends arceus did a better job with the music if we’re talking modern games
This is interesting. I think that when you do a list like this, you have to be careful with the new games and new songs because it's easy to think that the song is really good, but then stop feeling the same after some years. The thing is that you never know if this is gonna happen.
One of the main differences between my first top 50 battle themes and this, is that several 8th generation themes fell in a lower position on the new video, and the reason is what I said...
I meant, I love the new themes, specially the professors and the team star themes, but at the same time I'm kind of afraid about if in 10, 15, 20 years I'll think the same. The first time I listened the 3rd generation rival theme I thought it was great, and after 20 years I still thinking the same😄
That’s one thing that Game Frak has always gotten right. Music. I don’t think anyone will argue that fact.
Gen 5 Elite Four should be way higher imo. Also, glad you put that Champion Blue there, lots of people sleep on it.
Nothing but bangers on this list. Me and my homies always bop to the battle themes
But dude.. the R/B/Y GYM BATTLE theme is ABOVE?! the R/B/Y TRAINER BATTLE theme!?
R/B/Y trainer battle theme is a master class in freeflowing composing fr
Nd thnx for introducing me to the Arvin battle theme it's 🔥
Hey! Yes I know about the Trainer Battle RBY composing, but I love how intimidating Gym Battle sounds! That's why is above.
By the way, Scarlet and Violet have some great themes! Did you check the team star themes (number 12 and number 9)?
Hmm Intimidating is a right description. The common traits i see in the most popular battle themes is that aggressive pressure to disorganize us and to never let us rest, which is indeed intimidating lol
Therefore I respect your reasoning to put it where its at
But yes, the Team Star theme, Penny's theme i find quality pieces as well, all discovered thnx to your selection so i have added them to my YT playlist.
Also, I actually never fully listened to Hop's battle theme until ur list lol
Thnx for the content!
One of the lists ever
Necrozma has the best battle theme ever. It feels like Pokemon is saying goodbye to the DS system with a BANG !
Not including Lysandre's XY/USUM theme, Cyrus's USUM theme, origin Dialga or Palkia theme, legends Arceus Giratina's theme, Legends Arceus Arceus's theme, Ultra Necrozma theme or Paradox mons theme is a criminal offence
Yesss the gen 3 appreciation is realll❤
My top 5 in no order in particular:
Gladion's theme
Blue's theme (LG/FR)
Cynthia's theme (DPPt)
Ho-oh's Theme (ORAS)
Penny's theme
listening to this playing pokerogue. A vibe fr
Like for the transitions👌
this list was honestly very good. but my personal favourite battle theme is the regi trio theme in ruby and saphire. might be because of nostalgia. but it genuinely sounds somewhat creepy and it still gives me chills to this day.
such a well edited video :) good job!
but you forgot to include giratina, that should be number one 😅
I completely agree with you :D
So you're telling me that Zinnia's battle theme is nowhere on this list. It should be at least top 15
honestly a lot of these songs could be number 1 but as a Hoenn baby...i love your choice for number 1
It’s your tier list but i would put Zinnia’s Battle theme and Zinnia Sorrow in first.
But still a great tier list!
team star boss theme is the first pokemon theme that made me pay attention to the theme music. its so damn good
Swap 4 & 1 and the list is solid
I've been binging on Suicune's theme for quite a while, so imagine my shock when I learn it is number THREE on this list.
Vs RED should be on Top by faaaar
It represents the original pokemon theme with all its epic side .....Undisputed !
I’m thinking the only ones I would have included would have been Lysander’s theme, the legendary battles for solgaleo/lunala and ho-oh, the xerneas/yveltal theme and the hoenn weather trio theme
18:09 That positioning of Lopunny be kinda sus 👀
This is just what I needed to be listening to while I organize my Home boxes🎉
My favorite theme of all time may not the in the number 1 spot...
But 13 is favorite number so its fine xD
Can't help shedding a tear every time I listen to that theme, the happiness it used to give me as a child was enormous.......
Gen 3 Rival battle needs more love, the original specifically. While I don't think it's the best pokemon battle theme, it's definitely one of my favorites.
My top ten
1. Battle! Team star boss
2. Battle! Team Magma/aqua boss ORAS
3. Cyrus USUM
4. Battle! Rival Bede
5. Battle! Colress
6. Battle! Team skull admin
7. Kalos elite 4 theme
8. Hoenn rival theme
9. Gladions theme
10. Battle! Regi trio
Honourable mentions
Battle! rival marnie, Battle! Ultra necrozma, ghetsis USUM, Lusamines theme, Lysandre USUM, battle! Team star Oleana's theme, Ai sada/turo, Battle! Team skull grunt
HGSS rival theme and (underrated opinion) johto trainer theme should have been here but man, number #1 is SMTH ELSE
Not an underated opinion I agree with this
I also made a list with, funnily enough, also exactly 50, and there are so many picks here that are really uncommon but the same for me as well.
I love the gen 3 rival theme so much and it's awesome to see you appreciate it!
Really nice idea with the retro font for each title too
Oh! I would love to check the list! Do you mind to share it?
@@acordsjuganers Try if this works, it's unlisted: th-cam.com/play/PLQ62Jlf1yP6nKrY8xfSFzu6guV74sy_oy.html
Starts with #1 descending :) I'll make some changes here and there, but this is how mine looks roughly
(Sigh) 😔 Not many people appreciate Geeta's theme; does every theme needs to be excellent acoustically and not much structurally? These two terms, although going hand-to-hand, definitely appeal as distinct features in Geeta's theme. Everyone loves listening to the type of music they love to hear; like the loud melody in Team Star Admin Theme, or the feeling of ultimate moment in Blue's theme, or even the fight-or-flight jerk in Cynthia's theme, but can we listen beyond what we adore and appreciate this battle theme it is deserving of?
Personally don’t agree but good opinion
I agree with your point of view. I believe you expressed it quite effectively.
As you are aware, the video is merely my view, and despite the fact that Geeta's theme has an unusual structure, that it is a long, energetic, and original theme, I just like it.
At last, you can admire a song and understand that it's good, but that doesn't mean you'll like it right away.
I can think of other video game tracks when the same thing happened to me, but I'm sure it's happened to you as well.
I waited the entire game to hear the Paldea champion's music, and when I did, I didn't get the same feeling I did with the other ones. For me, the theme of Diantha, whose theme almost no one likes, is still a legitimate contender as a champion theme.
But, in the end, this is just my opinion. I understand that it's a good song structurally, and I can see why you like it. Thanks for the comment!
Yeah that's the only good thing about her lol
I disagree on all you've said but I'll respect your views
Personally I like it. I love how it has references to different Pokémon battle themes, and most of them are some of my favorites.
I assume this was limited to mainline games only because a list like this without Colosseum, XD, or Revolution would be nuts. Always love music lists tho! Fun stuff!
You're right! It's only about the mainline games.
Number 22 and 8 one of my favorites
Imo, Iris's theme should be in the top 5
I love guzma’s theme
Alola Elite 4 is THE standard for any endgame battle theme. That's how intense those battles should feel.
My top 5
5 Neo Team Plasma grunt B2/W2
4 Aether Foundation grunt S/M
3 Champion Let’s Go
2 Elite Four Scarlet/Violet
1 Gym Leader Sword/Shield
1. Volo
2. Ultra necrozma
3. Penny / Cynthia
4. Ai professors
5. Deoxys (ORAS)
Volo's fight is so hard (im still trying to get all the pokemon)
My top 2 are Necrozma and Cynthia hands down! Those legit make u feel like ur fighting a boss
Honirable mention tower tycoon in Pokemon platinum version 🎉❤
did not expect to see (or hear) iris' theme so low. At least I still get to hear it tho lmao
2 and 3 are agreeable to me. As much as I love number 1 and grew up with the rival theme I’d have to put Mesprit, Uxío and azelf theme 1st in my books though
I also completely forgot about the masterpiece gen 3 frontier soundtrack aswell
My top 5:
5. Zinnia (ORAS)
4. Team Plasma (BW)
3. Giratina (PT)
2. Gym Leader (BW)
1. Hau’s Champion Battle (USUM)
I’m super shocked that Hau’s champion theme is this slept on
Zinia's theme not being first is outrageous!

Bede’s theme, hell yeah! Especially 55:36
There were a few amazing themes missing; those being Champion Nemona theme, Ho-oh theme, and Zinnia’s theme. Otherwise, great list!
No masters music? Only main series huh... Well still pretty great woth the transitions!
Damm didn't expect that final one. I like the remake version one better but it's good. I expected some themes to be in here like galar gym leader, ho-oh, dpp gym leader/e4. But i didn't know sinnoh trainer theme slapped so hard as wel as the scarlet and violet soundtrack. It was better then i remembered. I always like these rankings, my favorite theme is either n final battle or neo team plasma grunt theme or lance hgss idk man🙈
Gotta say, there's a lot of nostalgia here with these themes. My Top Ten (there was one I ALMOST forgot until I heard it here) are as follows:
10. Gym Leader Battle - Pokémon Sword and Shield (Barely got beat out by the next one)
9. Elite Four Battle - Pokémon Sun and Moon (This one sounded more intimidating than most of the other Elite Four Battles.)
8. Legendary Battle (XY Legendaries) - Pokémon X and Y
7. Champion Diantha - Pokémon X and Y
6. Champion Steven - Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire (the original one is still good too)
5. Champion Cynthia - Pokémon Diamond and Pearl (Haven't gotten to her yet in Shining Pearl, so I hope it stacks up to this one!)
4. Rival Gladion - Pokémon Sun/Moon (Had one of the best Rival arcs I've seen.)
3. Champion Defense - Pokémon Sun/Moon (This one was really the first time I felt like a Champion and getting to take on other challengers, with a new one each time you completed the Elite Four)
2. Team Star Grunt Battle - Pokémon Scarlet and Violet (By far the BEST of all the Grunt Battle themes so far. Wish you could hear it more after you beat them all, though.)
1. AI Professor Battle - Pokémon Scarlet and Violet (I love this theme to death! It's so awesome, but sadly, we never get to hear it again, ever... Not even during the post-game.)
About the ai professor theme, I believe you can use it when you do online battles so that's one way to hear it again!
I really like your top 10! 💪🏼
Pokemon gold/silver/crystal battle theme is the best.
Gen 3 E4 is GOLD
