I'm hearing G# and B# to A and C#, but if you prefer you could write it as G#/D# to A/E to sound less muddy on the piano. Whichever option you prefer, but it's definitely G# for the low note!

Sounds good, I'll trust you on the G#! Also good call on spelling it as a B# instead. I actually like the thirds, I feel it captures the muddiness of the original haha.

Thanks for taking a look/listen!

Also, correct me if I'm wrong but it appears this theme's arrangement is credited to Masafumi Kawamura? https://vgmdb.net/album/1401

You would think so, but confusingly those songs are the ones that play on the menu screen for Gym Leader Castle, not the actual battles

• Looks like you did leave out the tie at m9 RH on the Bn (comparing to your transcription)

Done

• For m6 and  m8 RH 2nd part: I think these staccatos should be notehead side like m10. As an aside, we usually recommend staccatos on the stem side to center over the notehead as opposed to the stem.

I think those are already on the notehead side (unless I'm looking in the wrong spot)

• m69 1st part LH 4.0 I hear the Gn stay instead of shifting to an F#

Double-checked and it is an F#.

2) You could utilize what are called "Ravel Ties" https://www.ninsheetmusic.org/download/pdf/2663 see m35 for an example

I like the idea of these Ravel Ties, not sure how to implement them in Finale. Would appreciate some assistance with that.

So, I advanced to semifinals! I believe that makes me the first NSM representative to advance, although to be fair I'm the only NSM rep after they switched to the current system and I believe Toby made wildcards for LLF. Scheduling is just starting now, but my next game should start sometime within the next five weeks, so wish me luck!

Congrats !! Big achievement !!

LLF and NSM players have had a lot of cross over so I can't remember who represented who but I was a wild card for semis and got pulled in on a later phase but I'm sure Mashi made it straight through to semi finals. Not sure if that was NSM or LLF though.

Goodluck Oricorio, bring us a win !!

Nice job! I don't have a lot to say on this one:
-I've been looking at the bass a bit considering different options for yes/no 8va, but I haven't come to a great conclusion yet haha. My initial thought for checking it was m23-30, which is (mostly) pretty high to really need an 8va marking. Personally I can read the whole thing without 8va pretty well too, but granted it's a lot in ledger line territory too. Another line of thought I had was making the 8va optional, as the song works pretty well too without 8va. Anyway just spitballing here a bit, feel free to do with it what you want :p
-Maybe you could put m19 to m34 in Eb major? The chords are a leaning towards Eb/Cm in the first half already, but in m19-34 it definitely strayed further away from C major.
-m2: I think the chord symbol Db11 in beat 2 is maybe a Db7sus, like in m36? There isn't a clear F in the chord either to really support it being a major chord.
-m11-12: I think the chord here is just an Ab (so no maj7), I can't really hear a G anywhere except for the bass at the very end. You could then change the G to an Ab in m11 beat 4.5 R.H.

We're so cloooooose!!!!

-m70 RH beat 3: I'm not entirely sure what extra information is conveyed by having the F# in both layers at once, I'd vote for removing it from layer 2.

-m91 beat 1.5: Personally I think the layer 2 G here distracts from the melody and it's pretty quiet in the original, thoughts on taking it out? In our Discord sessions I recall removing a lot of other similar background notes that repeat melody notes.

- I forget if Radiak had any final thoughts about the "I miss you" in m. 89, but I'm fine with it as written.

Yeah, I still pretty strongly disagree with notating this as distinct pitches since it's just spoken and not really meant to be a sung/played line. I proposed these 3 options in Discord but I'll reshare them here:

 Option 1

 Option 2

 Option 3
