From a theoretical and compositional standpoint, this piece of music is a masterpiece. It's modern and a bit experimental, but there's also a good use of counterpoint and also thematic development. It's pretty great. It also lasts 1 minute and 36 seconds, which is an eternity for a Game Boy game.

I'm not as into Pokemon as I was when I was a child, but god damn the music is solid. I 100% agree.

100% agree, i in fact wrote a similar comment before seeing yours here. It had to be the absolute best theme. They had to fully maximize the capabilities of the platform they were on in order to truly launch a global phenomenon. It's incredible they were able to achieve just that. But i mean the good work speaks for itself - i consider this truly a timeless composition.

This is absolutely brilliant songwriting. So you have this limited format in the early 90's, on the original Game Boy, and you're coming up with game themes that are going to be heard thousands and millions of times the world round for decades to come. So you want a central theme, and you want to develop that idea. And you want to pepper in a ton of interesting segments that are somewhat related. You want the actual lines themselves, of the bass, tenor, soprano, all to be lively, interesting. You want this theme to be interesting every damn time you hear it for time immemorial. I think they succeeded with that, and that is a big reason these Pokemon games absolutely BLASTED OFF in the mid 90's, and subsequently became a GLOBAL PHENOMENON.

This track uses just three square-wave channels; the GB also had a noise channel but that isn't used here because it's reserved for sound effects.

We have a melody, a counter-melody and a bassline. The call and response between the melody and counter-melody is fantastic and makes the piece feel really dynamic. The bassline has a percussive quality to it that helps everything hang together.

Check out the syncopation between the melodic lines and the bassline; really helps keep things moving and stops the channels from crowding each other. The reverb finishes the job by filling the space. Just great stuff.

@hydraxonn

This is the best version of this theme, flat out. This is the only version that treats this piece as a duet, with both main melodies equally in the foreground.

Brock is probably the hardest (lol) fight in the entire game depending on your starter. RGBY is only difficult in the sense that we were new to the rules and the anime wasn't a great reference point.

That said, I did beat Brock with Pikachu alone for the hell of it :P

@jakerockznoodles

3y↑15

@@sdgdhpmbp I disagree, I always found the Misty/Rival 2 section of the game toughest. Brock was easy as long as you had any special move but Misty could be hard if you started with Charmander cus you don't have any supereffective mons yet unless you managed to snag a pikachu and the rival had that annoying as hell pidgeotto that would spam sand-attack.

I agree that gen1 was overall very easy, though. Personally, I think I found gen 3 or 4 the toughest, though I think Black/White 2 could offer a real challenge as well.

@bobbyjeffsupremelordofcraz3532

4y↑121

in later pokemon games, there was a different loop of music that played when your pokemon's health was in the red, but I think it traces back to gen 1, when because of the audio limitations of the gameboy, the little alarm beep meant one of the layers of the music wasn't usable, and this gave the whole music a completely different feel

@MariOmor1

3y↑11

In gen 5 the music changed entirely, they remixed the low health theme into an actual song.
And in Gen 8, if you're in low hp while battling a Gym leader the background music becomes more muffled

This theme is the "You Will Know Our Names" for Pokemon. It sounds like an intense boss fight, when you can hear it by just fighting some bug catcher.

@PVThunter1

That's the point. Every encounter with any Pokemon trainer is a literal huge challenge for you. The spirit of childhood that you can combat an adult criminal and a similar Bug Catcher in the forest with the same gusto. Masterpiece.

***** I would choose Red Version, and I would pick Bulbasaur, because it can beat the first 2 gyms quite easily, and plus Red version is easy with the Mew Lv. 100 glitch, also Bulbasaur knows Growl when you get it, same with Charmander but Charmander cannot defeat the first two gyms really easily, and Squirtle can't learn Growl it can only learn Tail Whip and although it can defeat Brock easily. However, it cannot defeat Misty that easy. (Oh and by the way, did you know that Abra can learn Thunder Wave? If you get the TM that is above the area you catch Abra in, it contains Thunder Wave and you can teach it to Abra, and while your at it, while in the battle with Mew, instead of chugging poke balls at it, you can just simply Paralyze it, then throw the Poke ball, if that doesn't work then you have to chug balls until you catch him.)
