I Love Driftveil City's Theme!


Jedi Master J.

Hey, BZPers. I am just popping in to give you all another progress report on my journey through the Unova region since I did play Pokemon Black on my 3DS yesterday after I finished my streetpassing rounds for that day at school (I got about nine streetpasses!).

 

Oh, and I actually was trying to get this entry up yesterday, so if the phrasing of the previous sentence seems kind off that the reason for it. Basically what I am saying is it was originally written as saying today in place of yesterday and since I am lazy, I just change the wording slightly. Wait...Why am I talking about my poor sentence structure above when I could be talking about Pokemon?

 

Uh...Sorry about that, I kind of thought I needed to point out why the sentence seem weird. Maybe I should just change it and delete these random internal thoughts here. Nah, I just leave it as is. :P

 

But anyway, the point of this entry is for me to ramble about Pokemon Black, so let's get to it. Okay, so last time I talk to you guys about Pokemon Black, I was in Castelia City and as I expected at the time, Burgh was a piece of cake to beat (Fire + Bugs = Dead Bugs) and quickly move on from there to next the city, Nimbasa City.

 

Actually scratch that, while I did go to next city after beating that Gym, I did go to Desert Resort for a bit to try to train my Pokemon team up some and just explore it in general. I did not get very far in it though due to Sandstorm there being constant bother, so I decide to head over to Nimbasa City with the intention of just checking it out since I did not think I was ready to take on the Gym.

 

So I did that for awhile and I must say it is a pretty interesting city. I did not really check out the Battle Subway or Sport Stadiums that much though. Mainly because I did not think I was ready to battle in either of those, especially the Battle Subway thing. I did battle one person in the Small Court yesterday though and they were not too difficult to defeat, so I was probably being a little too overcautious. *shrugs*

 

Oh, and before anyone ask, no, I did not try Pokemon Musical there since I never been a big fan of this feature in the Pokemon games. Although I am kind of curious how many people actually do Pokemon Musicals because apparently you can have online ones with friends involve. Still I do not think even that could really make me interest in trying one though. Well, actually I might try just for kicks at some point.

 

But anyway, I am going to just skip ahead now to my meeting with "King" N at the Ferris Wheel, which was kind of weird confrontation since outright told me his plan and I also think he might have hots for my trainer self in the Pokemon universe. Although I might be reading the signals wrong. :P As for the battle that we had, it was a surprisingly easy battle. And if anything, I have N to blame for making me lose against Gym leader once since I thought she would be pushover like him; she wasn't.

 

Oh, nevermind...I can't blame N for that loss since the trainers in that gym kind of tip me off that I was going to have trouble there. Plus, I did head in there at not the best level (All my Pokemon were around level 25 to 26 at the time.). It also did not help that Elesa loves to spam volt switch throughout that battle. So yeah, it was a difficult battle, but I pull through in the second try by tanking her best Pokemon with my starter.

 

After beating her finally, I went over to Route 5 like she asked and met the Pokemon League Champion after beating my rival rather easily in battle there. And well, I got to say I really like this guy's attitude as Champion and I hoping to see more of this guy along the way since he seems like an awesome dude. It kind of makes me feel bad that I am going to be one to take his title away, unless, of course, N beat me to him first.

 

Oh, and now that I mention it, N did say that he was going to make all trainers free their Pokemon by becoming Champion, which has me wondering something: Is the Pokemon Champion like the president of region or something that he can declare such things that everyone must follow or does N just think that title of Champion will make him strong enough to beat all who oppose him? I think it is the later, although the way Alder reacted to my rival's desire to be champion seems to make me think there might be more to it than that.

 

Of course, I should keep in mind that at least for me, the Player character, the title of champion is really nothing more than a plot device to end the main story for your character or at least it has been. Again, I have not beaten the game yet, so who knows there might be something else to it this time around. Nah, I doubt there really is anything else to it this time.

 

But anyway, the bridge to Driftveil City was finally lowered, so I crossed the bridge and heard for the first time the awesome music of Driftveil City (Which by the way, I have been listening to whole time, while writing this entry.). Unfortunately I had to saved the game at this point due to having to go to class, so that is as far as I got yesterday. But well, that's how far I have come since the last progress report.

 

Hm...I think that is all I got to share with you today about Pokemon. No wait, I just remember I wanted to ask this. Does anyone know if you can buy the soundtrack from Pokemon games anywhere? I would loved to have a copy of them to add to my iThingy, especially Driftveil City theme, which is my favorite at the moment.

 

Alright, that's all I got to talk about when it comes to Pokemon, so I am going end this here. Thank you for taking the time to listen to me ramble, guys. I doubt it was that interesting and if anything, I am sure it annoy some people considering I used words like though and although a lot throughout this thing. I am sorry about that and I'll try to do better in my next entry. See ya, BZPers.

Unfortunately, most game soundtracks are limited-release, and as such only appear in promotions rather than at traditional music retailers. Worse, for Japanese games they often fail to make it to English-speaking countries. I HAVE found dubiously-legal uploads of official Pokemon game soundtracks on the internet before, and that's all I'm going to say about that.

 

So yeah, Driftveil's theme is awesome. But it only gets better from there: the music to Victory Road and Village Bridge are particularly outstanding, especially since those two locations make the best use of the music-layering featured in other locations like Accumula Town.
