Pokémon like many Anime features a very distinct background of music. At the start of most episodes in the original series especially, the background orchestra can be heard which also features a heavy presence in the video games. The purpose for the music, like many other animated programming is to aid the mood of the show to show the feelings expressed .
The music is played in many different times usually depending on the emotion of the show. Times of hardship , influencing a more sad soft tone .It can then progress getting loud when the show is in a serious tense moment,
One example from the anime is when Ash flees from a flock of attacking Spearow during the first ever episodePokémon - I Choose You. The music playing sets scene for the more serious side of the anime which was a major milestone of the Pokémon anime.
Every time their is a Pokémon battle ,the battling music from the game is used in the show.
