              It's plagiarism if you're trying to pass it off as your own original creation, as it stands route 1 is pretty much a 1:1 allusion.
              If you include Dracula in your game you're not actually plagiarizing Bram Stoker, you're making a reference.

                Are you being daft on purpose? It's implicit, it's a universally known work and there's no attempt to hide it. If you slap a stupid brown hat/coat and a magnifying glass on pikachu you don't have to make a statement saying "we're actually making a reference to the public domain character sherlock holmes please don't assume this is our original idea, we're not taking credit for it"

              I don't think what he did was wrong but I honestly still don't understand why he had to do that. Doing and OST for Pokemon of all things has to be one of the crown achievements of his life and he chose to be so lazy about it.
              But, then again, it is also my favorite theme in SW&SH, so maybe he just used the best he had.

    Galar's gym theme offspring

    Average un*va city theme

    But many also feature Kanto and Johto gym theme and champion theme

    others feel like Kalos and Alola, this one was definitely made with Tapus banger in mind:

    Here I hear some Alola and Galar again

    Not sure if tributing or copying each single former gen OST for Paldea.
    There are some other areas and routes or wild encounter themes (multiple) not mentioned that might sound more unique to Gen 9.

    Of course not all of them are from him and shit like Lance's theme has been alreadyused several times plus the evergreen gym theme

    Champion also has this theme parts mixed in for sure (try listen at x1.15 speed), some Colosseum and Battle Revolution inspirations sprinkled around the OST too.

        That's a mystery that's why I put the hands forward talking about the OST in general, I'm mostly familiar with Pokemon series, other franchises and media might find more OST similarities with theirs or other artists.

      From the interviews about it when Toby was first revealed to be doing some of the music, iirc he even stated himstelf it's really more of a situation of him sending over ideas for melodies, tempos, etc, and then handing it over to the GF sound design team for polishing, orchestration, etc.

      If Toby was doing some of these with the little homages to past Pokemon themes, It's probably the sound team putting that sort of stuff in.

      ITS A PUBLIC DOMAIN CHILDREN'S SONG

        Anonymous

        It is intentionally changed just enough for them to be able to claim it is something new. What they clearly did because there has never been any fricking reference to the original song anywhere.

        Here's an example of someone using a public-domain song properly:

        Here, the source material is actually well-known, the track itself goes out of its way to follow the original enough to the point of it being completely indistinguishable etc.

        GF's only saving grace here is just how fricking common shit like this is in Japan. People still dickride the shit out of Uematsu and he didn't even bother looking for multiple sources for different tracks "he" was creating.
