Pokemon Silver/Gold/Crystal - Dark Cave

[UprightOverturn]

STUPID YOUTUBE SHORTENED IT!!!!!!

[UprightOverturn]

Yeah, it's not short any more... Weird :\

[galza]

I don't usually like much of the Pokemon Music in general. This is probably one of 4 in the whole franchise that make the cut. :)

[lions4life2]

Zubat Zubat everywhere Zubat Zubat in my hair Zubat lifts me off the ground Zubat won't put me down Zubat mating in the nest Zubat pricked my breast Zubat watching me pee Zubat wanting to eat me Zubat eating a corpse Zubat dancing in the moonlight Zubat for eternity and all of your life.

[TheDraughtofspades]

An icy night with weak lights and blizzard.

Like it is in this period in Italy.

[ilikeGorillaz1]

this song sounds like gangsters walking up to you slowly and menacingly

[lewietheterrier]

There are two things that are infinite in this world....

1. The amount of hatred people have for each other

2. THE AMOUNT OF ZUBAT IN THIS CAVE!!!!!!

[ThePrincessAsshole]

@lewietheterrier AND DONT FORGET THE TENTACOOLS!

[HyperHoundoom]

Go Ichinose and Jun'ichi Masuda OWN Coldplay :P

[Denthedragon]

You know how I know you're gay? You listen to Coldplay.

[emberwing13]

@Denthedragon I like theyre song paradise.O3O

[SuperSaiyanSJ]

Enough about Coldplay!!! Listen to the song :D

[AlbinoSandvich]

Coldplay's song "Clocks" came out in 2002.

This game was released in Japan in 1999 and America in 2000.

[FL546]

How does this sound anything like coldplay in the slightest>> 0_o

[OshawottCakes]

*hearing Coldplay's "Clocks" on radio.

Me: Coldplay stole from Pokemon!

My brother who thinks he knows everything: No, Pokemon stole from Coldplay.

Me: Yep, everyone behind Pokemon is looking for American songs to put them in their games.

My brother: Yeah.

Me: *facepalm*

[DoinkTonberry]

@OshawottCakes

ever play earthbound? Those games have a ton of american music in them.

[OshawottCakes]

@DoinkTonberry Was I referring to Earthbound?

[DoinkTonberry]

@OshawottCakes

no, but the same people who worked on the pokemon games were the ones who worked on earthbound so in technicality they were looking for american music to put in their games.

[OshawottCakes]

@DoinkTonberry Just because Nintendo worked on Pokemon, it doesn't mean that they did the music. Pokemon is licensed by Nintendo, and made by Game Freak.

[DoinkTonberry]

@OshawottCakes

true but you can hear mother themes sampled in pokemon themes. (Mt. Itoi- RBY indigo plateau for example) either way i was kidding around

[OshawottCakes]

@DoinkTonberry Hmm... interesting. I always thought Mt. Itoi from Mother was similar.

[darkaether121]

@OshawottCakes coldplay is a british band.

[catdog5646]

This cave scared the fuck outta me when I was 6. I couldnt read english and knew nothing about flash, so it was all dark and impossible to get through. I would take 5-6 steps and then return to the entrance cause I thought I would get lost. The music and the zubats didnt help either. So, I never finished the game until I was older :p

[sparky4444444444444]

chiptune + dubstep

[Khoufu]

Some of my favorite music in the entire game. :D

[w00p678]

That bass....

[rub1k]

the number of zubats in the dark cave is TOO DAMN HIGH!!!

[LinkEX]

@rub1k the number of zubats in ANY cave is too damn high.

[Blakkheim16]

Who the hell cares about Coldplay? They suck.

[ViolinSnowKid2]

MFW it's so easy to troll Nintendo fans...

[heyitsmija]

@ViolinSnowKid2 What, are you like five?

[NodakJo2010]

Dat Bass!

[Pkmncrazymaster]

I listen to the song till 0:05 or 00:6 or 0:57 - 1:03

[TheForeignGamer]

The first time I heard this song 11 years ago, I was actually scared to encounter that damn Zubat.

[n343184]

Anyone ever get through here on Red without Flash? :D

[Sp0ReTheSlayer]

@n343184 yes me ! I was stuck in there and i couldn't read english at this age so i didn't know about flash and i was stuck in this cave for 3-4 days till i wasted 1 day to get through this ! And this track gives me the chills each time a pokemon appeared i was one step closer to death !

[RebeliousMoose]

@n343184 This song was in Gold/Silver/Crystal, but the idea is still understood.

And yes.

[CrashBandicootFreak]

I always love listening to this in Gold. :)

[ViolinSnowKid2]

HOW DARE NINTENDO STEAL FROM SUCH AN AMAZING BAND LIKE COLDPLAY?!

[DoinkTonberry]

@ViolinSnowKid2

using an arpegio does not equal stealing from coldplay. and didn't that song come after this was released?

[ViolinSnowKid2]

@DoinkTonberry

Heh, I kid. It's like this, everyone should be suing everyone over a chord progression/broken chords. I should be locked up by now if that was the chase.

[Stickybun327]

@ViolinSnowKid2 This came out TEN FUCKING YEARS BEFORE COLDPLAY.

[Jimbeanlover89]

@Stickybun327

I wasn't aware Pokemon Gold and Silver was released in 1986....so I guess Pokemon red/blue/yellow are prequels, no?

[RnshinyMKW]

@Jimbeanlover89 who told you that??? it was released in 2000

[Austineagles22]

@Jimbeanlover89 Gold and silver weren't released until 2001 in in America. 2000 in other countries. The idea of pokemon was probably just being developed in 1986

[ASTK928]

@Stickybun327 nooo, it only came out a year or two before coldplay's clocks

[OckamsLaser]

@Stickybun327 Coldplay were formed in 1996 and released their first album in 1999. Gold and Silver were released in 1999. Zuh?

[tenyuji]

@ViolinSnowKid2

Bitch coldplay stole the shit from THEM.

[MrTizmaster]

@ViolinSnowKid2 Can't tell if trolling, or just stupid.

[DoinkTonberry]

@MrTizmaster

i think he was being sarcastic. If you look towards his comment that says "I kid" you'd see that.

[TehFr33Man]

@ViolinSnowKid2 I have directions for you.

1. Use Google

2. Look up the year Coldplay was founded

3. Look up the year Gold/Silver came out.

4. ???

5. Punch self in face.

[Jimbeanlover89]

@TehFr33Man

Yeah we get it, Coldplay was formed in 1996 and Pokemon G/S was released in 1999. Now I demand you cut your balls off and feed them to your cat.

[TehFr33Man]

@Jimbeanlover89 Jesus christ, you're a loon. Cut my balls off and feed them to a cat? That's just...wrong...

[dragondanro]

@ViolinSnowKid2

"HOW DARE COLDPLAY STEAL FROM SUCH AN AMAZING CORPORATION LIKE NINTENDO!?"

Fix'd

[AmmarArmashi]

@ViolinSnowKid2 Coldplay is Amazing??? ur mind needs reprogramming

[zakurenai]

I liked the Pokemon games better when the 'rare' Pokemon like Hitmonlee had sprites that took up the entire screen to make them look even more intimidating. Now with the 'new' 3D graphics, Pokemon that looked cooler in games like Gold/Silver look 'weak' because of their smaller sprites. Screw you and your 'realism' Gamefreak...

[ActionGag]

78 people are still on the ice.

[Rumblecore]

They need to make 8-bit versions of the new Pokemon games (music included) instead of modern remakes of the old ones

[zakurenai]

SO...LAID...BACK, just chill....

[GneshGnesh2837]

someone, PLEASE GIVE ME A DOWNLOAD LINK FOR THIS! PLEASE!!!

[Angeliclily]

I love this song. ;A;

[layziehorse72]

this beat fuckin slaps... this was the best pokemon theme

[zeoLightning]

lol guys remember back in 2009 when this vid was only 5 seconds XD

[mudkiprules4]

I could never do that damn ice puzzle when I first got the game. I got lucky twice doing it not only for myself but for my friend. Now that I'm older, this puzzle is pretty damn easy.

[Epicnessable]

Whenever I played this on my Game Boy, I could never see anything, not even when I used Flash. -.-

[Tsuchiryu]

Arguably the most awesome music in G/S/C, largely because of the amazing bassline. And considering that was the generation with the greatest amount of awesome soundtracks all around, that's saying a LOT.

Ah, and the Ice Path puzzle kicked my ass too the first time I got to it. Good thing we already got Fly by then, so we only needed to do it once as soon as we reached Blackthorn City. Otherwise... I can't fathom how much I'd hate having to get through that annoyance over and over again. Dx

[Urbano35]

@Tsuchiryu What makes the sound of this song so interesting is the fact that it bears three layers: low frequency bassline, medium-high frequency Alto harmony, and a high pitched melody. It also takes about a minute and a half for the tune to cycle which is not bad considering its for a video game.

[Tsuchiryu]

@Urbano35 Agreed. This music has got about everything right to be a catchy tune.

[YoungWubz281]

i was like 3 and my cousin had this and he gave it to my bro i heard him playing it and he was at a couple of places and i liked the music on there this game reminds me of kentucky because thats were my bro got it. and thats why the johto is my favorite region. plus the pokemon cries and how they look. my favorite pokemon is in that region and thats meganium.

[Donovandavis15]

Coldplay Clocks!

[MRzPiano]

I just finished playing this on the piano. I also uploaded the piano version.

I actually like this song

[MetroidNox]

...am I the only one who thought the ice puzzle was fun?

[HubandLux]

@MetroidNox I LOVE ice puzzle, so your not alone.

[JegsDude134]

There are 2 things that are infinity

1: The amount of stupidity in the world

2: The amount of ZUBAT IN THIS FUCKING CAVE!

[ChaosMew161]

@JegsDude134 Don't forget the Geodude.

[Titanis100]

What do you know? It's actually longer than 5 seconds!

[brainjuice654]

77 people couldn't beat the ice puzzle

[theboredperson13]

My brother said that he stopped playing Silver because that Ice cave was to hard to navigate. For me it took me like an hour to get out of it

[Armalizilto]

5 seconds?

[ShadowEevee128]

I first got into pokemon when I was 8 or 9 so whenever I played pokemon I just went through the game and didn't relly listen to the music. now I go back and listen to the music and am like: Was I deaf?!

[DarkArcz]

This is somewhat embarrassing, but I always feared the cave sections of the game. Not so much because of the darkness or wild Zubats (damned though the are), but because of the BGM. Looking back, it was pretty silly, but it certainly made the cave portions of the game the most memorable and atmospheric moments of gameplay for me.

[KENElovesKASH]

this one is better

watch?v=DbYMiR2PG7A

[Banapples83]

This music meant I had to go through tedious boulder pushing...and those damn zubats...

[103bradsell]

0:00-0:06 sounds like the beginning of a rap song

[profesor1917]

lyrics to this song: By some repe-e-e-el, buy some repe-e-e-e-el (8)

[MiniRodz]

@profesor1917 Background Lyrics:-

Zu-Bat-Bat, Zu-Bat-Bat, Zu-Bat...

Zu-Bat-Bat, Zu-Bat-Bat, Zu-Bat...

Repeat...

[Grrr12000]

@MiniRodz i believe it is Zu zu zu zu zu BAT, zu zu zu zu repeat

[Chaos4629]

@Grrr12000 I think it's "Zu-bat Zubat ZuBAT A Zubat Zu-Bat Zubat ZuBAT A Zubat" repeat repeat repeat.

[Grrr12000]

@Chaos4629 thats truly ingenius

[PalkiaRuler44]

zubat used interrupt!

player can no longer hear epic music!

player fainted from frustration by zubats!

[harvestmoon12345]

For a majority of my Pokemon life, I had not known Skarmory until the Hoenn games, making me assume that he was a third generation pokemon. I know you can only catch him in Silver, but come on. They could have put him as an opponent at ONE point in Gold, right? When I found out he was from Johto I was all, SAY WHAT?

[Firecloud500]

when i first played the game i went here after i beat pretty much everybody to beat in the game and i explored a bit and soon enough a wild dunsparce appeared and i was like "holy shit never saw this before!!" i never saw it ever before that time

[catdog5646]

back when i played this game i didnt even know i could use flash to get in the cave so i just made like 5-6 steps cause i was afraid i would get lost in the dark, and this music didnt help at all:p ...one day but got lost and luckily i found my way out.. i have to admit this game was pretty difficult for a 6-year-old who didnt even know what english was..

[bartekuh]

My brother and I had Silver and Gold, but also Red and Blue. We never found HM Waterfall, so we trained a Goldeen in Red/Blue and traded it to Silver/Gold so we could pass the waterfalls :')

[mcxandio]

I remember back when I was 9 and I played this game with my brother, and we got up to the big ice puzzle. He was 2 years older than me and a lot smarter, but when he and his friends gave up on it, I was the only one who could to it! I was so proud :')

[B1ushMoe]

haha when i was like 11? I remember the only reason i ever bought Repels was in caves so i could listen to the music without being disturbed by pokemon :')

[EpicEevee9001]

I love these pixelated 2-d graphics better than the new 3-D ones!

[yoyososototododo998]

@EpicEevee9001 Amen Brotha!

[burner1013]

@EpicEevee9001 How so?

[bubbles8joe8]

The most original cave name ever: Dark Cave

[Nitromatic]

@bubbles8joe8

It's dark and it's cave.

Would Caverns of the Darkness sound better? Nope!

[Ampharos95]

The 77 dislikes were zubats cause they couldn't interupt this song here on youtube

[TheJoshMaster22]

@Ampharos95 Actually because the song would always cut off after three seconds. This was a problem for about a year.

[Ampharos95]

@TheJoshMaster22 , I know, just a joke, somebody suggested to me to make a comment to get thumbs up so more people watch my videos.

[GraveHorizon]

This music is dark. I liked it.

[XxArmorDylanxX]

Zubat used Trollface.jpg

[ginnungaTUBE]

LOL back when I played Crystal with my little bro, we kept misreading "UNION CAVE" as "ONION CAVE".

When we got older and looked back, we realized that Union Cave was indeed spelled with a U, unlike Onion. XDDDDDD

To this day, we have an inside joke about Onion Caves.

[Saberdud]

good times......good times...

[LightKiiraa]

totally beats soul silver.

[ThisIsntOurReality]

This is one of my favourite songs in the whole game. I just used to sit in there and chill, listening to the music~~

[TheMaliciousStorm]

Awesome song, I remember humming to this. xD

[AcidWolf117]

The poor slowpokes' tail...

[000Metallegions000]

When I initially went through this cave i never heard the entire song cause of all the damn zubats. The next time i came in though, i had a thought that i'd never heard all of it before so i just decided to stop walking for a minute and listen. Good decision. :)

[BenTennison16]

dont know why but the Ice Cave is probably my favourite place in the entire game :)

[DoinkTonberry]

@BenTennison16

It's the ice puzzles. WHHHEEEE!

[killerkirbydude]

DA BEARS

DEY ARE EVERYWHERE

[JohnBoy617]

I don't think I listened to this theme a lot when i was a kid but I love it now because it's now nostalgic. It beats the HGSS anyday.

[Wlo689]

I hate how in the remake in the GB player they messed up the beginning completely!

[meghan1741]

@Wlo689 Dude how the hell did they mess it up they are almost identical and its different because they had to convert it to meet the DS sound platforms or whatever its called. At least they tried they're hardest and just be lucky they even put the GB player in there! Sheesh Im so sick of people dissing the remake's music

[thepokemonkid61]

Ahh...nice music...

WILD FREAKIN ZUBAT APPEARED

FFFFFFFFFFF-

[Cerulian15]

...back when i used to play this i was about 7 or 8 and i used to really get into the game. Now im 16 and i am realizing how the world really is. I'll never have my own pokemon... :(

but the first 2 generations of pokemon really sucked me into that little screen. by the time the hoenn region was introduced...I was already seeing the light

(Pokemon Emerald was the last pokemon game i beat)

[cloudownage666]

@Cerulian15

same here man i understand how u feel i tried playing the others it wasnt the same plus i had to deal with the real world now wich really sucks =[

[Beedrillluver]

Wild trollbat appeared.

[CoolWierdKid]

Love this tune all i needed was repel

[willardlol]

I would only take like, 5 steps into this cave because I was afraid I'd get lost. Then I remember the HM move Flash -__-

[Beedrillluver]

@willardlol It's a THM.

[willardlol]

@Beedrillluver It was an HM in G/S/C

[MoGaDeX]

Countless hours, lost inside this cave, staring at a pitch black screen...

[Dragonite115]

76 people did not want to save Slowpoke.

[GeoffShouldWin]

looks like your guy is pole dancing

[CrimsonVermillioneye]

I got nightmares.

[idkmybffjoejonas01]

This music isn't scary. Pft, I love this soundtrack, it's awesome. :)

[lash009]

230 ppl couldnt escape from Golbat

[falcolegend]

Fave dungeon ever. I always hum this at school.

[BadBoyBoyzz]

i didnt like this music that much cos it reminds me of getting stuck and had to rely on escape ropes

[Hitmonchan107]

I remember going to the local clinic. In the waiting room there were some teens (i was like 8 back in 2001) wating for someone or something. one of them was nice enough to solve the ice puzzle and get me to blackthorn city

i wish i met the guy again and thank him properly since at the moment he passed it the doctor called me.

[shimeonmorpheus]

@Hitmonchan107 the same thing happened but i was stuck at mahogany town, where that guy blocked your path. some nice guy in the hospital helped me out.

[ZoomZip]

@Hitmonchan107 no problem, glad i could help

[zulok1337]

@Hitmonchan107 i had to have my friend do it in like 4th grade :p

[erik4727]

@Hitmonchan107 lol, i remember playing pokemon sitting down in the middle of the sidewalk when a whole bunch of kids were coming by. ahh 3rd grade, good times.

[paddymoep]

@Hitmonchan107 The ice puzzle was inane. Buy three repels and you won't lose the clear view, everything is easy from this point. Except when you played this originally at the age of 7.

[samfortunato]

@Hitmonchan107 dude back then almost EVERYONE was into pokemon and you could count on someone (possibly older than you) who seemed to know everything about pokemon and could get you through the safari zone or something. it was awesome; you always had something to talk about or some common ground. i really think pokemon brought everyone together. those were the days.

[SuperSmashShaman]

@Hitmonchan107 I did something like that a few years ago with someone who was playing Yellow (FOR SOME REASON).

[Hitmonchan107]

@SuperSmashShaman Trading with 1st gen games was a must to pass the games.

[Raiadrin]

@Hitmonchan107 Ain't that a coincidince... about a year ago I helped a noisy 8 year old do that same part in HeartGold at a Burger King. He was being really noisy and bothering evryone so I nicely helped him out and he silenced himself.

[GoldenBreeze99]

@Hitmonchan107 The only way to properly thank him is to challenge him to a battle :D

[Nitromatic]

Bassline is the best :D

[ssdeath21]

230 people ran into a Zubat >:C

[MiniRodz]

@ssdeath21 No, EVERYONE ran into that little Fucker...

Doo Dee Doo D- ZUBAT APPEARED.

[orangebhuddy29]

@MiniRodz my god tell me about it. it took me like a day to get through the damn cave from blackthorn to route 46

[MiniRodz]

@orangebhuddy29 I actually sing this song but instead of "Doo Dee Doo D..." I sing "Zu Zee Zu..."

lol try it, it's brilliant! :D

0:20 "Zuuu, Zu, Zu, Zu Zu, Zuuu-Baaaaaat..."

[ShinyMewtwo96]

76 people didn't find Flash.

[jokemasterslifer]

Why do people act like this is scary? It's badass and almost saddening to me because, childhood. Crystal came out in America in 2001. I was 5, I think I started playing it in late 2001 or early 2002.

[DoinkTonberry]

@jokemasterslifer wel that base is pretty intense. still that's what i loved about it. r-o-a scared me crapless and i still enjoyed it.

[jokemasterslifer]

@DoinkTonberry

R-O-A?

[DoinkTonberry]

@jokemasterslifer

ruins of alph that tune was nightmare fuel

[jokemasterslifer]

@DoinkTonberry

I enjoy it too but yeah it's still creepy.

[messedrocker]

No remix or remake of this song has had the legendary quality of the original. Just listen to that bass line. Try not to be moved. Just try.

[robokill387]

@messedrocker actually, I think the GB player version of the song is slightly better.

[RhinoSea]

wild zubat appeared wild zubat appeared wild

[Soragan]

I was gonna restart my file in SS, but I remembered I wouldn't have the GB player till towards the end of the game. =(
