User:Pokencyclopedia/Pokémon Music Themes: Part 1

Sometimes I like to associate Pokémon with music. This page will be used to express what music I find fitting for each Pokémon.

Gen I

Pokémon	Song	Reason
Bulbasaur/Ivysaur/Venusaur	"Forest Interlude" from Donkey Kong Country 2	The song is slow and relaxing. The Kanto Grass starter seems like the type to just trudge slowly in a majestic forest.
Charmander/Charmeleon/Charizard	"Thwomp Caverns" from Mario and Luigi: Partners in Time.	Mostly because it sounds "Fiery".
Squirtle	"Koopa Beach" from Super Mario Kart	Squirtle has been referred to being like a Koopa Troopa by both Pokémon and Mario fans alike.
Wartortle	"Koopa Bros. Keepin' it Cool" from Paper Mario	Okay, Koopa Troopa association again. But this song really seems to fit Wartorle's badass disposition.
Blastoise	"Gloomy Galleon" from Donkey Kong 64	Blastoise is definitely one of those ocean lurkers.
Caterpie/Metapod/Butterfree	Athletic Theme from Super Mario Bros 3	I dunno, the sounds peaceful and fun-loving. Mostly fits with Butterfree.
Weedle/Kakuna/Beedrill	"Flight of the Zinger" from Donkey Kong Country 2.	Well, the song was meant to be wasp-oriented.
Pidgey/Pidgeotto/Pidgeot	"Sky Chase Zone" from Sonic the Hedgehog 2	It's peaceful, airy and majestic. The perfect music for Pidgeot to fly nobly up in the skies with.
Rattata	"The Road is Full of Dangers" from Super Mario RPG	Well, Rattata is among one of the first wild Pokémon that a rookie Trainer is bound to encounter.
Raticate	"The Dungeon is Full of Monsters" from Super Mario RPG	Mostly because Raticate is basically a giant, creepy sewer rat
Spearow/Fearow	"Wing Fortress" from Sonic the Hedgehog 2	It's mainly the middle part of the song that's used to emphasize Fearow being the opposite of Pidgeot.
Ekans/Arbok	Jace's Arabian Desert theme.	Because it sounds like snake-charming music.
Pikachu	Pika Cup Battles 1-3 of Pokémon Stadium	It's a fast-paced theme and its for a tournament our beloved Pikachu, what more do you want?
Raichu	Pika Cup Battles 4-6 of Pokémon Stadium	Mainly to express that Raichu's tougher than Pikachu without a Light Orb.
Sandshrew/Sandslash	"Teehee Valley" from Mario and Luigi: Superstar Saga	Because it's a slow, western-sounding desert song.
Nidoran ♀/Nidorina/Nidoqueen/Nidoran ♂/Nidorino/Nidoking	"Cavern Caprice" from Donkey Kong Country 3	I dunno, they seem like cave-dwellers to me...
Cleffa/Clefairy/Clefable	"Star Maze" from Super Mario Land 2	It involves the Clefairy line's association with outer space. Sounds like something that they would dance to during a full moon, right?
Vulpix/Ninetales	"Thwomp Caverns" from Mario and Luigi: Partners in Time	The song fits the Firefox duo's fiery nature and Ninetales' beauty.
Igglybuff/Jigglypuff/Wigglytuff	"Piranha Plant's Lullaby" from Super Mario 64	Because they're Pokémon best known for singing you to sleep *yawn*
Zubat/Golbat/Crobat	"Boss's Level" from Super Mario Land 3: Wario Land	Mostly because they've been used by every evil organization in the Pokémon series.
Oddish/Gloom/Vileplume	"Beware the Forest's Mushrooms" from Super Mario RPG	They're mostly forest-dwelling Pokémon and Vileplume looks like a mushroom.
Paras/Parasect	"Mushroom Hill Zone" from Sonic & Knuckles	Because they're bugs with Mushroom attached to them.
Venonat/Venomoth	"Escape from the Woods" from Wario Land	Because it sound like you're in for something long and boring, and Venonat and Venomoth are mostly unimpressive Pokémon.
