This song is underrated and that makes me sad. The theme from Route 225 enjoys a contest with Route 228's theme, playing on three of the six Routes on Sinnoh's Northern island. Want to know what's cool about Route 225 though? It leads to a mother-fracking active volcano, and you can go inside the mother-fracking active volcano and it's super cool. Volcanoes are awesome, man, woman, Tumblr. And what about that badass horn section? This song taught me so much about how to do brass right, and for that I owe Route 225 my humble props. In addition to that, you have amazing strings and a pretty fantastic bass-line. I think on more technical terms I like this better than Route 228's theme, but I can't help but wonder what a VIP REO would sound like now that I have some new tricks up my sleeves. Anyway, happy Monday or St. Fratchers Day or whatever, and I'll see you soon will an all new whatever. KK. Ttyl.

HappyDragonite Super-Quick F.A.Q.
Q: Download links?
A: I was having some technical difficulties with my service provider since the Summer of 2013, and I am in the process of getting download links back. Please be patient.
Q: You used my art in one of your videos, can I have credit?
A: If you are the original artist all you need to do is ask. Send me a YouTube PM, email, tweet, etc—and I will credit you. I don't get art for individual videos, so I can't collect every single link; but if you ask I will oblige happily.
Q: What do you use to produce your music?
A: High quality samples and Logic Pro 9. For video editing I use iMovie 9, and for image editing I flip-flop between Pixelmator and Photoshop CS-something.
Q: Can I use your music in a video or a monetized video?
A: Absolutely. You don't even need to ask my permission, just write my username in the description of your video and it's all good. No need to make it all complicated. Go right ahead.
Q: How can I help support your channel ie. donations?
A: I don't accept donations at this time, but watching my videos (liking etc.) helps. If you have adblock on, if you turned it off to watch the videos of the people you watch on YouTube that would be super cool.

![DPPt Route 216 - 217 (Reorchestrated No. 1, Op. 140)
The first time I attempted this monster of a song was in 2011, and I completely messed it up more than fifteen times prior to the final video (which has it’s problems, believe me) and I came back for more. I think I’ve finally done what I wanted with the song, so I’m pleased. There are a few little bits in the song that were messed up by iMovie when rendering, so hopefully they won’t destroy the experience for you, but here we are. Route 216 and 217 are to this day both two of my favourite Routes, and two of my least favourite. They are beautiful, have awesome music, but man oh man, that freaking blizzard that makes everything practically unseeable is a poop design choice—not to mention the snow itself which ind Diamond and Pearl especially slows your normally slow walk into an agonizing crawl. The music is one of the Routes’ only saving graces, and after tromping around in the snow for hours trying to find your way anywhere (all while collecting the hidden items and battling the demon skiers) even THAT starts to wear on me. Thank Arceus for Platinum, eh? Speedin’ up it’s game, player. Anyway, my basic inspiration for this came from the basic instruments a band might have at a Christmas (or whatever) party: piano, maybe an electric organ or a harpsichord, a violinist or at best two, some drums, and a stand-up or Jazz bass. I really wanted to have a simple organic sort of feel to this, so big-room orchestra this is not, padawan. In fact, don’t count on that for a while, as this theme has sort of ruled this month for me. Anyway, long descriptions are long and I hope you enjoy.

![BW Nacrene City (Re-Orchestrated)
Nacrene City doesnt get much snow, and it doesnt seem like it should be on my Winter upload list, but its theme has always seemed a bit wintery to me. So here is upload number two in my Winter PokéTunes Fun Times List! I still dont really know why this theme makes me think of winter, but for some odd reason it does but its also really pretty, so Im sure youll let this slide. Get it? Slide, ice... Anyway, I hope you enjoy this; and make sure to come back again next week for another fabulous PokéTunes! Also, the new Pokémon Movie is coming out today, and if you want to watch it with me Ill have the details down below.
[December 8th 2012] How the heck can we watch the new Pokémon Movie (Kyurem Vs. The Sword of Justice) together? Dude, are you crazy? Were like a million miles away from each other! Answer: that doesnt matter! I cant help anybody who is not in the Americas, because I dont even know if you have a release date yet but if you live in the Eastern Time Zone you can tune in and watch the movie with me at 1:00pm PST (or 4:00 EST) on YTV. If youre on the West Coast like me, you can watch the movie with me at 4:00 PST (7:00 EST). Cartoon Network is airing the movie at 7:00PM for the East Coasters, so MAKE SURE TO TUNE IN IF YOU CAN. Check your cable listings, and find out when the movie is on for you, because Ive probably done a HORRIBLE job at explaining it. You can go to my TWITTER (listed below) and you can live chat with me during showtime! SEE YOU THERE!

![RBY Lavender Town (Reorchestrated)
Ahh! A wild HappyDragonite appeared, but this time spooky! I had long neglected Lavender Town, and a few years back I even trolled you all with an arrangement of the much less spooky version found in Gen II. Well, now it’s finally done. This ghost can be put to rest, and I’m pretty damn pleased with myself. If you’ve seen Pokémon Origins (which if you haven’t: please do! It’s all over YouTube, so get searching, Dragoknight.) you’ll pretty quickly realise how heavily inspired I was by their arrangement. Heavy on the harps, and moar winds because life without a bassoon and a few flutes just ain’t worth it. I was going for a less ‘ospoopy’ feeling, as I was more of a dirge. Tolling bells and a choir? I gotchu. Thinking about just how depressing it must be to live in a town (which is straight up beautiful) so surrounded by sadness, and loss couldn’t possibly be easy. Maybe that’s why Mr. Fuji moved there, as a sort-of penance of sorts for creating an unstoppable monster with a god-complex—or maybe he just likes sad people, who knows. Happy Halloween, Dragoknights—and remember, if you see a Cubone wandering around today give it a flower crown and tell it everything will be just wonderful. Then adopt it because Cubone are adorable. Stay tuned for another PokéTunes real soon, and a special guest will be joining the channel again this month to help me out a bit. Thanks for watching!

HappyDragonite Super-Quick F.A.Q.
Q: Download links?
A: I was having some technical difficulties with my service provider since the Summer of 2013, and I am in the process of finding a new place to host said MP3’s. Please be patient, and I’m sorry for the inconvenience!
Q: You used my art in one of your videos, can I have credit?
A: For anything pre Autumn 2014 send me an email at HappyZoroark [at] gmail.com with the video title in the subject line, or art, and I will add a link for you in said video as soon as I can. As of September 2014 there will always be a link so you should have no reason to worry about credit unless it’s a bum link, or you (the artist in particular) would like a different link to be used, in which case you can email me. Sorry for the inconvenience.
Q: What do you use to produce your music?
A: High quality samples a la Kontakt 5, my wits, and Logic Pro 9. For video editing I use iMovie 9 (because the new one is impossible to figure out because I’m old and I don’t know how new fangled things work), and for image editing I use Pixelmator, which is a fantastic image editor for Mac, and doesn’t cost a bajillion dollars like Photoshop.
Q: Can I use your music in a video / monetized video?
A: Absolutely. You don’t even need to ask my permission, just add a link to my channel in the description of your video and it’s all good. No need to make it all complicated. Go right ahead. If you want some attention too, feel free to mention me on Twitter @HappyDragonite, and I’ll check your video out!
Q: How can I help support your channel ie. donations?
A: I don’t accept donations at this time, but watching my videos (liking etc.) helps. If you have adblock on, if you turned it off to watch the videos of the people you watch on YouTube that would be super cool, because that’s sort-of completely how I can afford to keep uploading videos instead of working retail, or running an international Rare Candy cartel.

![XY Mélancolie Path (Route 16, Reorchestrated)
XY’s soundtrack is one of the best in the series (or so I think, and judging by comments I’ve gotten most of you do too!) and this behemoth of a song is like, sacred ground to a huge margin of Pokémon fans…which is why I am both terrified to be sharing this, and excited beyond words because I am ridiculously proud of my work on this. This song plays on Brun Way, Mélancolie Path, and Mamoswine Road (that’s where they lost the French motif Game Freak pls), also known as the next few routes after Laverre City which I’m not going to name because it’s in the video dammit. Did I mention everybody in the goddamn Pokémon fandom seems to worship this song? Oh, okay. Anyway, it’s pretty damn fantastic, which is why it was so difficult for me to make. I love most of Kalos, but for some reason these routes (sans Mamoswine Road because that made me want to punch a Delibird in the face) stood out to me, and I think the major contributing factor to that is the music. It’s so boisterous, and adventure-y, and it’s such a fantastic song to hear at that point in your Kalosian journey; daring you to venture on, and take on all the challenges that come at you! It also helps that it’s so orchestra your brain melts. So, Dragoknights, here we are. I hope you all like it, and are ready for whatever I PokéTunes next! Also: For those that read my blurb and then go about their business, I encourage you to check out my friend Tia’s (Iris-Sempai) Tumblr and Rebubble below, because she makes amazing art and was kind enough to let me use her work for this video!
