Lumiose City is probably my favorite song, with Battle! Friend a close second. It's probably the only song I keep music on for Showdown for.

I don't follow this thread at all so I apologize if somehow everyone already knows about this....

Have you guys heard of PokeMMO? Someone basically took Pokemon FireRed and Pokemon Emerald and made an MMO out of it. When I first saw it, I was very skeptical. However, I've been playing it for a couple of days now and I can confidently say that this game loving owns. It's exactly like the gameboy games except you get to make your own little avatar and you can see everyone else's avatar running around, and you can challenge whoever you want to a battle at any time. All the features are there. Even breeding! There's even a robust economy involving the sale and trade of pokemon. I think it has something like 386 pokemon currently? If you have nostalgia for 1st and 2nd gen in particular, then this game is practically made for you.

The trailer on the main page is in no way misleading. It does everything it claims to do, and very very well.

Don't forget that one town where you could change the background music by going around and convincing different people to start playing instruments.

Why did they take out those musical cues in gen 6? The low health music is so much better than the plain beeping sound.

Oh I dunno, Kalos had its moments

^ I guess because they went to prerecorded music? A tradeoff between instrument quality and cool effects and transitions.

I'm sorry, but I'm going to have to disagree with this. It was like a 20 second loop and it overrode ANY other track. Gym Leaders, E4, Legends...
It also played if ANY member of your team was at red HP, so if you played Triples or Rotation (or maybe even Doubles), you'd probably hear more of that theme than the actual battle theme.
If it was in Gen 6 and it started playing over, for example, Zinnia's battle theme, I'm sure several people here would be upset.
I will say that making it 3 beeps instead of eternal was a beneficial change, though.

Eh I got kinda burnt when playing it last time, it had massive lag issues, the animations, even walking, were choppy as hell and there were a lot of bugs (not bug-types :v:). But maybe if the finished at least one map, I'll give it another shot.

Eh, the Elite 4 and Champion really got hurt by X&Y's 'a baby can play it' design philosophy, as a whole they were comically weak so there was zero drama in actually fighting Diantha when I took her to the cleaners first time. I didn't think her light and airy theme really held up well compared to the sinister high tempo martial themes they used in earlier generations, though given she's such a pushover I guess it is thematically appropriate

Yeah gotta agree it's a shame such good music is wasted on a lame Champion, even though she did allow my Ludicolo to shine.
Maybe in the next game to get a Pokemon World Torunament will make her somewhat more of a challenge.

...is it bad I'd pay for a separate 3DS game that lets me participate in just the PWT? I can't be the only one who thought it was great fun.

I believe Mexico is never getting one, because it's like Canada. The event SAID North America, but it really was just the united states. You could probably do what I did and switch your router settings to be open and set the SSID to "McDonalds Free WiFi" (without the quotation marks) and get your hoopa that way
