Music Appreciation Post: Pokemon Ruby/Sapphire Surf Theme


In honor of Pokemon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire being released tomorrow, I wanted to post one of the most memorable tracks from the original games. This is the surfing theme, which you hear a lot in game (as the Hoenn region is literally covered ~70% by water) and after reading a few reviews from those who got the game early, to the dismay of many (too much water!!) that much hasn't changed. This theme, along with the endless Tentacool wild encounters (don't forget the repel!) is something anyone who has played these games before is more than familiar with.

Overall, the entire soundtrack is great (and can be found here), so I can't wait to hear the updated/remixed tracks. And alongside the updated 3D graphics, I'm sure it will create a total package that is just as exotic and mesmerizing as the original games were so many years ago.
