@matt.langford: I don’t know about you guys, but when I first heard this music, it sent me right back to how it felt facing gym leaders when I first started playing Pokémon! I’ll even sometimes listen to this music in the actual gym to give me motivation lol #pokemon #swordshield #gymleader

illmatt :

The Dynamax beat drop goes CRAZY then the battle is over in one hit.

sliafifi :

Also when the crowd joins

Vexents Gaming :

Yo I stand by this that sword and shield gym music the best! I even got three remixes on my Spotify lol

Tyson Alms :

Gen 8 did gym battles right. A battle with a gym leader should be a public spectacle like a sporting event

Kiara/Skye_thegamer :

This game doesn’t serve the hate it gets, I love it so much

no :

it goes SO HARD kind of out of nowhere

Shawn :

Marnie’s theme put these tracks to shame sadly…just like team star grunt’s theme in s/v

Brandon :

The gym battles in swords and shield were EPIC! They made you feel like you were in a real sporting arena! I hope Winds and Waves brings that back.

Hydras Maelstrom :

for me one of the best gym themes that made me feel this was the one for X & Y. This is a very close second

SlayerZ86 :

Didn’t get to the best part, when the crowd starts chanting. Life changing hearing it in a gym battle.

Donnie :

When that crowd starts up, I felt like I was IN the game for the first time ever. I’ve never been so enthralled in a game. I need them to bring back the crowds cheering omg

livewire :

Honestly I love the SWSH games. They got me back into pokemon games after missing a couple generations. And they gave me Sizzlipede and Centiskorch who I love :3 the music is an awesome cherry on top for me

Gaming Panda Boy TTV :

nah when the crowd starts cheering at the dynamax showdown, that's when I start to ascend

SystemEmotions :

NO SAME THO! Made the gym battle feel like the GRAND EVENT THE GAME MEANT IT TO BE!!!!!!

KingCANO :

My favorite one! This song was an AWAKENING

RamenMonte :

And the moment the crowd starts to chant and cheer

ferret_94 :

when the crowd jumps in

PeaTearGryfin :

Why did the soundtrack in the most boring Pokemon games go so hard though?

Goblinking :

probably gunna catch some heat from the hardcore gen1 peeps, but gen 8 has the best gym theme. been playing pokemon since the brick game boy, and I can't remember a better gym theme.

Turtleguy :

I fully forgot abt the battle the first time I played and just vibed to the music

Pikoashy :

I love swsh

Ryan D :

sliafifi :

Banger

Dylan :

Adrian Nambo :
