Any idea why there hasn't been a soundtrack released for this game? I really like the music, I think it's some of the most original and creative so far!

You say this as if there hasn't been a soundtrack release for every main series Pokemon game for the past 20 years.

I wonder of Shining Diamond and Brilliant Pearl will receive a soundtrack. If so, then why not Sword/Shield? |

Glad I'm not the only one wondering why there's still no official release...

One other reason could be the collaboration with an external composer (Toby Fox). I think it's the first time that it happened on a mainline series game, so maybe there are issues in terms of copyright/licensing. I recently asked Junichi Masuda on Twitter if they're planning an official OST release as he's quite active there and semi-regularly answer to random people, but I go no answer unfortunately, even when translated in Japanese. |

Interesting about Junichi Masuda! A shame he didn't answer your question (thanks for asking him anyway!). Maybe he does reply on a later date #keepsfingerscrossed |

And now we're getting the soundtrack of the original Diamond & Pearl on the official Pokémon YouTube channel: https://youtu.be/XDg0T0hsJkc. And it's even free to download for personal use!
...but still no word on Sword & Shield :/ or even the BDSP remake for that matter... I can only hope they use this release on YouTube as a test drive to see how popular it gets, because at this point there should be no difference between putting a music video on YouTube versus the music tracks on Spotify/AM/iTunes/etc. I tried again to ask Junichi Masuda on Twitter when he announced the Diamond/Pearl OST being available on a JP-only at the time, but still no answers unfortunately.

I find it somewhat ironic how, until some years ago, Pokémon soundtrack releases were rather consistent while Nintendo's first party ones were completely scarce, and nowadays it is almost like the exact opposite is happening lol. |

FINALLY
I've been waiting for these for so long, Sw/Sh and Legends are some of the best soudntrack of the series! Also, even if a lot of the songs from these games can easily be matched to their most likely composers, official confirmation for composers breakdown will be welcome Last edited by Mentalo; Dec 7, 2023 at 08:11 AM. |

Kinda surprised it took them so long (even to the point of having two further mainline releases ever since Sword/Shield), but better late than never I guess.
If I understand correctly, the website also confirms that, for all soundtracks, there will be comments from the composers (as well as development material, histories behind the creation of the songs, etc.) so I'm really looking forward to them. Also, I guess Brilliant Diamond / Shining Pearl won't get a soundtrack release? |
