Glad to be getting another battle theme checked off the list, and happy to have my friend Emily join me once again! She played violin in the Sinnoh Fusion Ensemble, and played the ridiculous violin solo on the Sinnoh Trainer Battle Medley! Thought I'd bring back similar vibes for this track :)

We're just under 2 months away from the release date of the Year of Sinnoh album, and I've gotta be honest, it's getting tough! I've come to accept that there are going to be quite a few Sinnoh tracks that I want to do, but will not be able to finish in time for the album. That's okay. I can always come back later whenever the remake is made and do those extra songs haha! I've been working on this project for a long time, and the perfectionist within me really wants to make this album the best I can! While I know I will be shooting for that perfection, I know that true perfection isn't possible, and at some point, I'm going to have to call it good enough, and that'll be it! The Year of Sinnoh has felt like a really really long run, haha, and I'm in the anchor leg now, though the end is in sight! Looking forward to pushing through and finishing :)

I'm planning on posting a version of the Distortion World music plus Giratina's Battle Theme on Halloween, if I can arrange all that in time, haha!

Thank you all for your continued support as I keep trucking along here :)

Sinnoh's Elite Four is a fun bunch to fight. We've got Bugsy but older, Agatha but ground type, Ronald McDonald, and that weird guy at your local library. All jokes aside, I love this cast of Elite Four members, especially Flint! I loved seeing Flint and Volkner's relationship fleshed out a bit more in Platinum with their appearance outside the Battle Frontier. Also cool to see Lucian a bit at the Canalave Library, proving the bookworm actually does go to the library and learn about Sinnoh lore! There are a few cool pieces of music I included in this medley, so I'll go over each of them briefly! The medley opens up with "Decisive Battle! (Pokémon League"), which plays when you begin your Elite Four challenge properly. I have so many memories of facing the Elite Four multiple times to level up my Pokémon, and hearing the game's elevator sound effects play over this intense track in the background. It really makes those moments in between fighting the Elite Four members that much more special. At 1:16, the arrangement progresses to "The Elite Four Appears!" which is a bop and a half that didn't need to be a bop and a half. The trainer encounter music in Sinnoh is SO amazing, and this particular theme is probably my second favorite encounter theme (with the first being Spotted! Ace Trainer). It's just SO ridiculously funky, and has a crazy trumpet solo that fit so nicely on the EWI! Following this, we transition into the epic battle theme! This battle theme is actually the same battle theme as the Gym Leader battle theme in Sinnoh, just pitched down a half step. I think it sounds more intimidating in this key! The section at 2:26 is definitely my favorite part of the battle theme, it's just so HEAVY and intimidating, almost like a thumping heart (though if your heart is thumping that hard maaaaaybe you should get that checked out lol). The arrangement then finishes with the victory theme and comes to a nice conclusion! There are so many little cool fun things I put in this arrangement that I could talk about for a long time... but I'll just mention a few! First off, I have to give a huge thanks to Emily coming online and playing a ridiculous electric violin part throughout the arrangement, and also for being a very worthy opponent during my the solo battle at the end of the arrangement! I also got a set of bongos, and used those in this arrangement for the first time! Also got to use the electric organ again, which turned out to be super useful for a lot of the weird noodly lines in the first section of the medley. This arrangement turned out great... and I still have a lot more Sinnoh tunes to work on AHHHH! ♫ "Decisive Battle!
