A cover of "Champion Cynthia" (aka "Approaching The Champion") from the game Pokémon Diamond/Pearl/Platinum and it's remake, Pokémon Brilliant Diamond/Shining Pearl.
As mentioned in previous Pokemon covers, the games are without a doubt my favourites of all time and I absolutely loved the Sinnoh remakes!
This track is incredibly underrated as it is only played during a small segment of the game, but still manages to have a massive impact before facing the final challenge of the game, that is the champion Cynthia! She is the infamous champion of Sinnoh and almost universally agreed that she is the hardest champion to beat - however beating her is so much easier than trying to play her theme!
I always really enjoy playing classical pieces on guitar as it's usually a fun challenge, and seeming has the original is pretty much a classical piano piece, I thought I'd give it ago as I found the arrangement surprisingly quick and easy to come up with.
However, this is by far the hardest cover I've had to play so far! I definitely had to channel my inner 'Dream Theater' and 'Symphony X' to get the shredding down, and as big a challenge as that was, the acoustic section was so much harder! My acoustic playing is already pretty weak as I'm pretty bad at finger picking, so I was really pushing my limits to try and get this mastered. Needless to say, I don't think this one is I'll be playing for fun in the near future, and hopefully Noble will forgive me for making him play this one!
Fortunately, luck was on my side with the mix as this one was relatively easy to do, between the softer sections and the more intense sections.

![PREVIEW: Dragonborn Comes - Skyrim [@TripleBMusic Cover]
Just a quick preview of Triple B Musics cover of Dragonborn Comes from the game The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim.
Im always down to collab with Triple B whenever he asks me, and this cover is no exception! In this cover, I was asked to perform some lead guitar and some backing screams/harsh vocals, and hopefully I did okay on his super cool, proggy cover!
