Movie 9 is done. Note that the music at 1:28:33 is a "B" version of the track "As long as I can hold my breath...". The ones at 59:28, 1:45:25 also can't be found in the official CD.

Plus, I think we should add all the slight variations of the movie tracks that played in the series (except for those that just have parts sped up or slowed down), later.

Plus, corrected DP's 2 first episodes a bit for consistency of the descriptions' style (I tried to respect the style that was put there originally, though) and added a few tracks that were missing.

An unreleased version of Hikari's theme:

DP 1 - 10:30, in the DVD version (Hikari asks to go and search for the four missing Pokémon and Nanakamado lets her. The music plays through the Eyecatch Break.)
Better to take the sample from DP 2, where it plays again at 11:02, in the DVD version, since it's longer (Hikari announces to Nanakamado that she'll search for Pikachu. The music overlaps the Eyecatch Break)

More Unreleased music, probably Movie 7's unused BGM. It's also possible that it's the beginning part of our version of the track Movie 7 BGM - Underground Hideout (that played right after the one below), where only the part recorded in the site's database was heard in the movie, but the previous part existed and remained unused by the anime producers in the full-length feature. Still, it's just a theory and the track should be marked as a regular unreleased BGM.
There's a similar case with an unused music from Movie 2 (I'm absolutely sure it's from Movie 2, but wasn't used in the movie itself), but I won't bring it up seriously until at least the end of DP.

I hope I made myself clear.

AG 172 - 05:47 (Hinata explains to the group that last week strange things began to happen around the Pokémon Center.)

And there's more:

AG 191 - 13:37/14:27 (Regirock and Regice repel Rocket Gang, sending them blasting off.) / (Jindai sends out Regice.)
17:31 (Satoshi tries to wake Pikachu up by remembering their previous battles together.)

AG 193 - 13:50 (Shigeru reveals to Satoshi that Elekible is a Pokémon native to Shinou. Satoshi then reaches Masara Town.) - I thought this one was already in the database (sounds like from Movies 4 or 5), but can't find it for some reason. I think it's probably just my brain confusing the track with another. Yeah, the variety of music at this point in the series is already very high. AAARGGGHH! :D
I'd appreciate if someone went through the unreleased music and tried to find this piece there.

Added the remaining unreleased main series AG tracks to the database to complete the music index up to DP. It is really getting hard now to keep track of the hundreds of tracks. I wonder if even Shinji Miyazaki remembers all the tracks himself!
AG 172 - 05:47 - added as "Strange Happenings around the Pokémon Center"
AG 191 - 13:37/14:27 - added as "Regirock and Regice"
AG 191 - 17:31 - added as "Satoshi and Pikachu's Memories"
AG 193 - 13:50 - is 1000 Year Comet (千年彗星) from the Movie 6 CD.

I will work on Movie 9 and DP unreleased next over the next few days.

More than 1000 tracks composed (not counting the openings, endings and other songs, of course) by BW... That's insane!

That should have been so obvious! Can't believe I missed it.

Tano shimi da zo, meaning "Looking forward to it", I think :)
Of course, Adamant will probably correct me on this one...


Currently making the first steps through DP.

Unreleased music:

DP 4 - 10:32 (Nurse Joy registers Satoshi for the Shinou League with his Zukan.), very likely "2006-2010(DP)-M02-1", as there's a variant named as "2006-2010(DP)-M02-2", and they do share many of the instruments.
17:17 (The group and Naoshi hear the Pokémon's sounds in the forest.), probably "2006-2010(DP)-M02 B".

It's surprising that Shinji Miyazaki composed so many variations on the DP Opening, when he could have arranged instead DP's Champion Battle Theme, for example, which would have been amazing :P However, he probably was handed a list of tracks from Diamond & Pearl games that he had to arrange and so he was forced to do only those.
And if the CDs 203 and 214 are anything to go by, the 4th Generation had the least music arranged or composed for, in comparison to all the other generations.

On another note, the track "Oden" has got to hold the record for the longest time without being played - 455 episodes: http://www.pocketmonsters.net/cd/214#Track-3919

Added all the samples for the unreleased tracks for Movie 9: http://www.pocketmonsters.net/episodes/578#Music.

Will move on to the DP unreleased tomorrow as it takes awhile prepping all these unreleased tracks and assigning them.
