Wild Battle sounds like a rendition of Gen 5's wild battle music (the best one) with the melody layer missing. There's nothing distinguishing about it. Weakest ever.

The trainer battle music is a little better but it's still not as good as XY's.

The instrumentation is disappointing after XY had the best in the series. I hope the rest of the music is better than this, not that Pokemon ever really disappoints in that department.

>>28078045
Now we're talking. But still not Galactic or Gen 2 Rocket tier.

Trainer Battle Rankings:
Alola>Kalos>Johto>Kanto=Unova>Sinnoh>Hoenn

Alola's battle music is pretty sub par though.

I can generally accept that except Sinnoh so high. It doesnt sound particularly interesting. Like, the most "generic" a vs Trainer Battle can sound. Though I'm not saying you can disagree. At least we agree on Hoenn, that was complete shit and the only one I actively dislike.

I also have a hard time deciding between Johto and Kalos, I think it would be better to say they were equal. Though I do get the "generic shonen" complaint Kalos gets.

I admit that Ive never actually cared about battle music to the point where I dont remember any of the champion themes or wild themes or any of that. I was always an overworld music kind of guy. But that changed recently with the trainer battles. Might just check out those too.

Solid 4/5, suits the intended theme well.

Pretty meh. Antagonist team's battle theme should get you pumped to win against them. This one can't do it.

>>28077993

Uninspired. Wild battle theme is a worse offender, sounds like just a bunch of sounds cobbled together.

If you can't hear the melody in the wild battle theme, just ignore the trumpets. The piano is the melody, and it's along the same melodic lines as most other gens' wild themes. The brass material is just little interjections between phrases. My only complaint is that the brass should be quieter in relation to the melody, and perhaps the drums are a bit sporadic at some points.

Much better than gen 6.

Gen 6 had a couple of decent battle songs, but the good ones would only be heard a couple of times throughout the game, and 90% of the game you're hearing the generic as fuck trainer battle or wild battle themes

Also, the gym leader battle themes are what I look forward to the most and xy dropped that ball hard

I like the wild battle music. It's similar to Gen 4 and Gen 5. I don't see why everyone hates it. It's great.

The trainer battle one is average.

The rival battle sounds like they're drinking coconut milk on the beach. It doesn't sound like a battle theme at all. It's shit.

Just the Trainer battle theme and Xerneas/Yveltal's theme. XY has the blandest Gym and E4 themes ever.

Diantha's theme was about as awful as Diantha herself.

That's literal trash though. All of the battle themes are pretty bad except maybe the rival theme, which is still probably one of the weaker ones of that type.

Ok, point. Let me be clearer: XY's legendary theme is good in the context of that game's OST, which overall is pretty bad. The trainer battle theme, however, is pretty good even when compared to stuff from the other games.

Colress battle theme is better than anything in XY and SM so far. ORAS uses Hoenn like instruments since it's a remake so it doesn't count.
