Also added to the site now is a listing of the most used BGM tracks in order from most used to least used. This allows people to see the top ranking BGM tracks regardless of which CD they are from. Will also dynamically update when tracks are assigned or new unreleased tracks are added to the database and assigned to an episode.

Link to 'Top BGM Tracks: http://www.pocketmonsters.net/epguide.php?action=topmusic


Quite a handy feature! It shows the actual number of instances that the musics play, instead of only the number of episodes the BGM played shown in the CD. That way we'll be able to know which tracks are the most common in the series. Thanks for working on it.
I'd suggest one addition: having the music name link to the track of their respective CDs, to find easily a sample of the music for those that aren't so familiar with the track names.

About these 4 episodes, it appears that the show goes here through some changes. The episode 190 is the first to have the "To be continued..." graphics shown on top of the entire picture, instead of the picture panning out to a small square and the "To be continued..." subtitle appearing on top of a black background, like in the first 189 episodes. It's also here that the next episode preview is moved to right after the ending song, with Professor Okido's Pokémon Lecture becoming the last segment of the episode.
Only one music from the Movie 2 played though (again in Episode 190), even though it was the 1999 Title Theme, which played for the first time in the series.

Interesting to note how in one episode (194) the opening, eyecatches and ending all changed.

If I don't say anything about unreleased music, it means there's nothing to report.

I'm coming to the end of the "4 episodes each day" routine. Tomorrow it will be the last before I get back to doing 3 a day.

http://www.pocketmonsters.net/episodes/204#Music
http://www.pocketmonsters.net/episodes/205#Music
http://www.pocketmonsters.net/episodes/206#Music

I'm not convinced that the music in Episode 205, at 04:10 is from the Unreleased Music that has been uploaded on the site. It does sound very similar to the tracks http://www.pocketmonsters.net/cd/view/375#Track-4243 and http://www.pocketmonsters.net/cd/view/375#Track-4244, but the section that starts at 04:16 sounds very different compared to the same section in those 2 versions.
Either way, the description for it is: "A commercial about the movie star Brad Kitao is shown on a big screen, the same guy the group saw earlier."

Heh, that's quite the pace you've been on lately that's for sure! 200 episodes already, coming close to the end of the original series.

I'm not too sure about this one either, I'll listen to it again tomorrow but I'll probably just add it as a new unreleased track.

I feel that I need to slow down a bit my pace. It has been taking a bit too much of my free time.

If I keep the pace of "3 a day" from now on, then I'll finish the original series at 27th December and start the AG series day 28th, which is my birthday!

I too think that's the best thing to do.

Sounds good. I've added the tracks for Movie 4 to the database.

Thanks a lot. I've now added the episodes 214-216.

http://www.pocketmonsters.net/episodes/216#Music

Possible unreleased music:

Episode 215: 08:04 (Musashi imagines herself as a queen.) - This one is quite difficult to qualify as a music.
