Description
Aside from the characters, the manga is also more mature. It's a little weird to call it mature but there are serious world issues they discuss and also the idea of death is not avoided and it mentioned a few times.
I remember seeing someone on Tik Tok call this the "ultimate form of Pokémon media" and while I disagree, this is pretty damn good. The only downside I can see is that it seems to gloss over important plot points a lot. It could be a symptom of the fact that the story moves at a blazing speed, to where an entire feature-length movie could be made out of 1-2 chapters of this alone. When I saw they were re-releasing the series in a complied 10 volume collection I knew I had to jump in the bandwagon and buy the series to support it. Nevertheless, re-reading this series brought me a lot of joy and entertainment. The Pokemon Adventures manga is hybrid of its own spin to the Pokemon world but still borrowing some elements from the video game franchise. Red is a fun and likable main character and his bond with his Pokemon is very pleasant to see. He is very similar to Ash in many ways but very different at the same time. I mean, spoiler, he does win his big battle against Blue at the end of the series.

Yellow is childish but charming. I think that her ability to get in touch with Pokemon is interesting, although, maybe a little contrived in that only she can defeat Lance because Viridian. She's challenged a lot, but her determination keeps her as a palatable protagonist. I especially liked Yellow's interactions with Blaine, as he was a complex character with a conflicted heart in the first volume.
In the games, there are Pokédex entries that explain the savagery of some Pokémon. For example, Pinsir likes to cut its prey in half with its claws. But we never get any real evidence of Pokémon’s ferocity in the games. I finally got a glimpse of the savage side of some Pokémon while reading this manga. It really put things in perspective for me.

I feel like I could make comparisons, babble about Pokémon facts, and really show what a nerd I am all day long. But what about people who aren’t as familiar with Pokémon as I am? Will they enjoy the manga? I think so because, for starters, the writing is very strong. The author included seeds throughout the story that help connect everything together. They put a lot of thought into the story, and it paid off in the end. However, it's still Pokémon, which is meant to for children. The writing isn't incredibly complex, it's easy to follow, and it even has some somewhat terrible puns. But come on, it's Pokémon. Anyone who's played the games or watched the show has imagined going on a pokémon journey of their own. Hell, I've been playing since the beginning and I still love Pokémon. So maybe I'm a little biased, but I thoroughly enjoyed reading this.
As if there wasn’t already a plethora of Pokémon-related things to hoard, VIZ will release something else for fans to add to their ever-growing collections: Volume 1 of the Pokémon Adventures Collector’s Edition manga, which compiles the first three volumes in the series. I’d be lying if I said I’m not completely biased when it comes reviewing this manga. As someone who played the original Red, Blue, and Yellow games in the 90’s and just finished the recent Kanto remake, Let’s Go Pikachu!, I am 100% inclined to love anything involving the first generation of Pokémon. It’s like a giant nostalgia bomb. No. This is not based on the Pokémon television series. It's based on the games. But it still manages to strip away that awkward gameplay system that ultimately comes down to numbers. The pokémon in this series are used creatively and realistically meaning Charizard can actually fly! Not only that, a fainted pokémon may not even recover so warning, this series is a lot darker than either the games or the show.
On January 16, 2018, Kurokawa announced they would start publishing the Diamond & Pearl and Platinum arcs together in omnibus format. [23] A boxed set containing the five volumes was released on October 14, 2021. [24] Cover Like I said, I am extremely biased, but this manga was amazing. I have years of Pokémon sentimentality brewing in me, but I think almost anyone would enjoy this read. Even if they’re not a hopeless Pokénerd like me. On March 22, 2022, Panini released a new limited-edition boxed set, this time for the Sun, Moon, Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon arc. It consists of three omnibus volumes and includes six postcards with the original Japanese cover illustrations of the adapted mini-volumes. The release itself is limited to 2500 copies. The Ruby & Sapphire arc was released in a boxed set of three omnibus volumes on October 24, 2018. Each volume was released separately at a later date. This story feels much more inspired by the handhelds than the anime, which is a pleasant change of pace.
