When you think of the phrase:
>"A wild pokemon has appeared!"
What theme pops into your head?
Gen 1? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R_uv35rKyFY
Gen 2? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yNofX9vF0TQ
Gen 3? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xWFjcKzPmtY
Gen 4? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V9RPgulOxYs
Gen 5? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AuTRRK8rEqg
or even Gen 6? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bf-F8EGblKA
They all do to an extent.
I didn't own gen 1, I used to borrow my friends, so my played time was much lower. When I hear it I feel very nostalgic.
Gen 2 was MY gen in a lot of way. I sunk hundreds of hours into it as a kid. So in a way, I'd say it feels the most vanilla to me - as it's baseline in my brain.
Gen 3 still excites me a little. I'd say it's my second gen - I got it on my tenth birthday and I really do have a sweet spot for it despite its flaws. Fuck you I like the trumpets
Gen 4 is my favourite gen so it gets me pretty hype.
Gen 5 is my least favourite so it makes me feel like I'm in an artificial environment with EDM music - if that analogy works.I haven't played 6

2 > 5 > 1 > 3 = 4 >>> 6
Actually right now the one that pops up is the gen 7 one (the one in the salandit reveal vídeo), it's so good!
I don't know why but the FFIX battle theme is the first that pops in my mind
Actually none of them. For some reason, whenever I imagine a battle initiating, I always think of the Trainer themes instead of the wild ones. Either the Subway Trainer theme from BW2, or the new one from SM. Both are soooooo gooood.

Gen 3.
I think we can all agree that Gen 3 has the best wild pokémon music
gen 3
>>27118494
we can't
1, surprisingly (the Pokémon Stadium rendition of it.)
I replayed 3 4 and 5 the most (they're my favourites overall) but I guess 1 has just been ingrained into my head from when I listened to it non stop as a kid
>>27117960
I play with the game muted.
Gen 5&6. Mostly 6 since I shiny hunt
This

4&3
>>27117960
Gen 2 because that was the first game I had more than a passing glance at.
But the gen 3 theme is the best.
>all the gen 3 love in here
/vp/ truly has patrician taste
>>27117960
This is actually the theme that pops into my head

I said "has appeared" not "draws near" you dolt.
>>27117960
4 > 1 > 6 > 3 > 5 > 2
Gen 1 started it all, and has that sense of "I have to win" going for it.
Gen 2 is less intense, and doesn't feel as urgent. It feels too carefree.
Gen 3 feels urgent, but less serious.
Gen 4 feels adventurous and urgent, but at the same time feels just as it should. I can't explain it too well.
Gen 5 is too soft. It sounds like a downgrade from 4 akin to how 2 was to 1.
Gen 6 is urgent, and has moments that remind you to have fun. Those guitar riffs are killer.
Gen 1 because it's easy to remember, and Gen 6 because it was the most recent I played.
I've loved every generation, three being my favorite followed by five. Gen two is the one that pops into my head though.

the best one
Gen 5 and it's sirens.
>>27117960
Gen 5.

Gen 3
After all these years I still love the trumpets
