Pokémon Company launches Diamond and Pearl sound library

the Pokemon The company launched an online sound library for the original 2006 releases of Pokémon Diamond and pokemon pearl which will allow users to listen to the sound of fourth generation games.

the Pokemon DP sound library was launched in 13 countries, including North America and the United Kingdom. It will feature a total of 149 Nintendo DS music tracks and sound effects, although it will not feature any updated music from recent remakes. Users can select six of their favorite tracks and combine them into a “party track,” a definitive reference to the six in the series. Pokemon party system.

Moreover, the Pokemon The company has already created a few playlists that you can play on called Adventurous, Power-Up, Challenge, and Relax. Users can download and use the tracks for free in creative videos and musical compositions, as well as in non-commercial events. To celebrate the launch, Japanese artist and DJ Alan Shirahama released a track, “On My Way to Glory” which uses samples from Pokemon DP sound library.

“Having the possibility of arranging Pokemon gaming music like this is such a fulfilling and wild experience for me. My younger self would have been thrilled by the very idea. I like my beats to roll with story-like structure and momentum, so I started by conceptualizing how a Pokemon Trainer’s daily life would play out,” Shirahama said.

The launch of the sound library follows Youtuber GilvaSunner shutting down his channel after a total of 3,500 Nintendo copyright blocks. The YouTuber is known for posting songs from Nintendo soundtracks from franchises like Kirby, Punch-Out, Animal Crossing and more. The blocks have led GilvaSunner to plan to remove its channel later this week. The songs they released aren’t publicly available on music services, which makes the launch of the sound library a bit suspicious.

It has not been confirmed by Nintendo that sound libraries from other Pocket Monster Capture generations or other Nintendo franchises are forthcoming. This could be a one-time project for the DDiamond and Pearl Games. Hopefully not.
