Pokémon Adventures (Japanese: ポケットモンスターSPECIAL Pocket Monsters SPECIAL) is a manga series authored by 日下秀憲 Hidenori Kusaka. It was illustrated by 真斗 Mato for the first nine volumes and starting from Volume 10 it has been illustrated by 山本サトシ Satoshi Yamamoto. It is published by Shogakukan under the Ladybird Comics Special series.

It is popularly known as Pokémon Special even outside of Japan, and often shortened as PokéSpe (Japanese: ポケスペ / ポケSP PokeSupe).

Unlike the anime—which, though drawing much inspiration from the games, does not follow them exactly—Pokémon Adventures is a mostly game-based manga, with the twenty-one main characters taking their names from the core series games and their various adventures tending to stay restricted to their home region. Also unlike the anime, which has gone to great lengths to indicate the danger of a Legendary Pokémon being captured, the main characters of Pokémon Adventures have captured and sometimes use their own legends, much as the player can in the games. Pokémon Adventures also contains darker elements than other media, including certain characters and some Pokémon actually dying.

On October 26, 2009, it was announced that Gakunen magazine Grade 5 and Grade 6 (at the time serializing the Diamond & Pearl arc) would cease publication at the end of the fiscal year. In February 2012, Grade 4—which was serializing the Black & White arc at the time—also ceased publication. Publication will continue in CoroCoro Ichiban and Pokémon Fan magazine.

Pokémon Adventures is one of the most successful Pokémon manga ever created, having sold over 150 million copies worldwide. Pokémon creator Satoshi Tajiri has endorsed the series, stating "This is the comic that most resembles the world I was trying to convey."[1] Game producer Tsunekazu Ishihara has also praised the series, saying, "I want every Pokémon fan to read this comic!"[2]

The various chapters of Pokémon Adventures span the seven generations of Pokémon games so far. These chapters are named typically for the games they correspond to; however, the protagonists of each chapter typically also share these names.

Red, Green & Blue chapter (Volume 1~3)

Pokémon Adventures volume 1 (VIZ media Second edition)
Main article: Red, Green & Blue chapter (Adventures)

The first chapter of Pokémon Adventures, much like the first games, chronicles the journeys of Red and Blue across the Kanto region, conquering its eight Gyms and the Pokémon League. Later, a third Trainer, Green, is added into the plot. Together, the three defeat Team Rocket, an evil organization that uses Pokémon for illegal acts. Red also helps Blaine to capture Mewtwo and saves a young girl from wild Pokémon in Viridian Forest called Yellow, who appears in volumes 4-7. In the end, as in the games, Red defeats Blue in the Pokémon League.

Yellow chapter (Volume 4~7)

Main article: Yellow chapter (Adventures)

The Yellow chapter starts two years after Red obtains his title of the Champion in the Pokémon League. Red disappears for one month after he leaves to answer a challenge from someone named Bruno. One day, Professor Oak discovers Red's Pikachu, Pika, injured at his doorstep. Soon after the arrival of Pika, a young Trainer comes into the Professor's lab. The Trainer, Yellow, claims that "he" is a friend of Red and wishes to look for him with Pika. While Professor Oak is still skeptical about Yellow, especially about "his" ability of healing and sensing Pokémon's emotions, he eventually entrusts this mission and Red's upgraded Pokédex to the young Trainer. However, this event only triggers the revelation of a larger secret as Yellow is repeatedly attacked by members of the Elite Four. When Yellow discovers that the Elite Four base is situated at Cerise island, Yellow heads there and meets up with Blaine, Blue, Green and the Team Rocket Commanders: Sabrina, Lt. Surge, and Koga. They decide to team up to take down the Elite Four, where Red also joins them.

As he goes on a journey of chasing the thief, Silver, with a Cyndaquil from Professor Elm and Pokédex from Professor Oak, he stumbles upon the secret plots of the Masked Man. At the same time, Professor Oak sends out a "Pokémon Capture Professional," Crystal, on a journey of completing the Pokédex. She gets involved in Eusine's plans to capture Suicune and tries to do so herself. Soon after, she also gets involved with the plots of Masked Man, who is apparently after the two Legendary Pokémon, Lugia and Ho-Oh.

Team Aqua steals the heart component from Mr. Stone, President of Devon Corporation, while Team Magma steals the Submarine Explorer 1. Team Aqua destroys the volcano using the Grand Meteor, disrupting the balance of nature.

English translations

Pokémon Adventures has been licensed for English translation by three different companies: VIZ Media, located in the United States, Chuang Yi, located in Singapore, and Shogakukan Asia, also located in Singapore.

VIZ Media

Beginning in September 1999, Pokémon Adventures was translated into English and published in the United States by VIZ Media. Originally, the series was available as a series of monthly single issues, a popular format at the time, and the rounds were later released in the more traditional graphic novel format, beginning from Volume 1 in April 2000. Publication ceased in 2003 after the Yellow arc concluded with Volume 7. These translations read from left-to-right with the artwork in reverse from the original version, to conform with the style of North American comics and other Japanese manga published at the time. Other content, such as the route maps at the end of every volume, was omitted as well. Samples from this translation of Pokémon Adventures can be found in the The Best of Pokémon Adventures volumes, which were both published in 2006.

In June 2009, VIZ Media began re-releasing the series beginning from Volume 1. Rather than just reissue the previous translations, VIZ Media opted for a "second edition" - these volumes feature a new translation, with the right-to-left artwork and all of the content omitted from the previous translation restored. However, the new translation still follows closely to the original translation, containing some of the same dialogue and all the same titles for the rounds, as well as a lack of nicknames for Red's or Green's Pokémon (although Red's Pokémon receive nicknames in later volumes). In addition, these second editions contain edits not found in the first edition, such as the editing of Green's battle with Sabrina in A Little Kadabra'll Do It to remove the scene of Green hiding Poké Balls in her top and the recoloring of Jynx to match its current color of purple.

Following the second edition of Volume 7, VIZ Media has begun to release volumes which are new to North America, beginning with Volume 8 in August 2010. While continuing the format of the second editions, there are some edits in the new-to-American audience volumes, like editing a scene of Crystal's mother slapping her in Volume 11 into a glare and editing the scene of Norman punching Ruby into him dropping Ruby due to lightning in Volume 17. VIZ Media took a break in publication following the release of Volume 14 in August 2011, which concluded the Gold, Silver & Crystal arc (The Last Battle XIV was moved to the end of Volume 14). They resumed production of the series with Volume 15 in March 2013.

In July 2010, it was announced that the Diamond & Pearl arc would be published concurrently with the Gold, Silver & Crystal arc as a "second series" called Pokémon Adventures: Diamond and Pearl/Platinum, with Volume 30 published as the first volume of the second series. This second series releases one new volume triannually and began publication in February 2011. Continuing this trend, in August 2013 VIZ Media began to release the HeartGold & SoulSilver arc as a separately numbered series, Pokémon Adventures: HeartGold & SoulSilver, consisting of Volume 41 and Volume 42 as volumes one and two. Since the HeartGold & SoulSilver arc is numbered separately from the Black & White arc, the first four rounds of Volume 43 (PS457-PS460) were moved to the end of Volume 42 to keep the rounds organised by chapter.

Beginning in July 2011, VIZ Media began publishing the magazine version of the Black & White arc. Since the rounds were not currently collected in volume format in Japan at the time of publication, they were released as a series of mini-volumes, titled Pokémon Black and White and billed as a "Pokémon Adventures special edition". Starting from July 2013, VIZ Media started releasing the regular volume versions as a series called Pokémon Adventures: Black & White, allowing readers the choice between the magazine version and the volume version.

In March 2013, VIZ launched the Perfect Square app for the iPad. It allowed users to buy digital copies of children's manga and American comics. Pokémon Adventures is among those included on the app. So far, only Volumes 1-14 and Diamond and Pearl/Platinum Volumes 1-4 have been made available. These same volumes have also been released on the Kindle and Nook eBook stores as well.

VIZ Media's translations of Pokémon Adventures are available in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, Ireland, Australia and South Africa. And imported into other countries.

Chuang Yi

Chuang Yi, a manga company based in Singapore, translated Pokémon Adventures into English since Volume 1 in May 2000. The first seven volumes used VIZ Media's translation, though after VIZ Media stopped their first edition in 2003 at Volume 7, Chuang Yi continued to translate the series on their own. As the first seven volumes were based on the flipped edition by VIZ Media, Chuang Yi continued to publish the series in a flipped format, lasting from Volume 8 to Volume 40. Their final volume, Volume 41, was published in the original right-to-left reading format. Their translation of the manga stopped when Chuang Yi went under voluntary liquidation.

Chuang Yi's translations of Pokémon Adventures were available in Singapore, Malaysia, India, the Philippines, Indonesia and Thailand. They were also available in Australia and New Zealand through Madman Entertainment.

Shogakukan Asia

Beginning in July 2014, a new publisher, Shogakukan Asia, has picked up the license for Pokémon manga, including Pokémon Adventures, in Singapore and other Southeast Asian countries. They first published Pokémon Adventures volume 42 in August 2014. The volumes were published in the original right-to-left reading format.

International translations

Pokémon Adventures has been translated into many languages for publication around the world.

Chinese

神奇寶貝特別篇 volume 3 in traditional Mandarin (Taiwan)

Pokémon Adventures is currently being translated into Chinese by two publishers. In Taiwan and Hong Kong, Chingwin Publishing Group (青文出版集團) handles the translation of the series into Traditional Mandarin and Cantonese under the title 神奇寶貝特別篇 and 寵物小精靈特別篇 respectively. The manga was formerly serialized in CoroCoro of Taiwan before its cancellation in January 2015, but continues to publish volumes.

In Mainland China, the series is currently being translated by Jilin Publishing Group (吉林出版集团) under the title 精灵宝可梦特别篇. Before the DP chapter, the series was formerly named 神奇宝贝特别篇, but was renamed due to trademark issues. All the early volumes have now been republished under the new name as of 2014. Initially, the series was translated by China Light Industry Press (轻工业出版社) and known as 宠物小精灵特别篇 for seven volumes, before Jilin Publishing took over in the 2000s.

Pokémon Adventures: Red, Blue & Green volume 2

Finnish

On July 25, 2014, Finnish publisher Pauna Media started publishing the Red, Green & Blue arc and the Yellow arc under the combined title Pokémon Adventures: Red, Blue & Green. The seven volumes of these story arcs were initially scheduled to be released monthly. The Finnish version is based on and translated from the Japanese version. The names of moves, most characters, and Pokémon, however, will be in English by request of English licensors.

This means that Blue and Green follow the English naming as well instead of the original Japanese. Even though the translation is based on the Japanese version, the graphics are based on VIZ Media's second English version, with certain Finnish sound effects added. The edits made to the graphics remain in this version, despite the company's earlier statement on not censoring the series. Pauna Media has plans to release the entire series.

European French

Pokémon Noir et Blanc volume 1

Pokémon Adventures was translated into European French by Glénat under the title Pokémon: La Grande Aventure!. This translated version was based on the original Japanese, however, the artwork was printed in reverse order in a left-to-right reading format for purposes of publication in France. Each volume was initially split into two monthly issues by Glénat, and were later republished in their original volume presentation. Glénat suddenly had to interrupt this edition due to copyright issues, before the release of Volume 7, the closing volume of the Yellow arc.

Since 2011, the Black & White arc has been translated for France by Kurokawa. This translation respects the original reading format (right-to-left) and is based directly on the magazine version of Pokémon Adventures. As the title Pokémon: La Grande Adventure! was still trademarked by Glénat, the Black & White arc is published with the title Pokémon Noir et Blanc.

Pokémon: La Grande Aventure! omnibus 3

In April 2014, it was announced by Kurokawa that they would be rereleasing the Red, Green & Blue arc and the Yellow arc in a set of three omnibus volumes, beginning on June 12, 2014 with volume one. This release, while continuing to use the "Pokémon: La Grande Aventure!" name, features an entirely new translation more faithful to the original Japanese version and consistent with Kurokawa's release of the Black & White arc. In this edition, Red, Blue and Green are named Rouge, Bleu and Verte, which translate to the same colours in French. Blue and Green's names are switched, as in the English version (Bleu is the male character and Verte is the female character), likely due to the fact that there was no Green version released in France.

In 2015, upon completion of the Black & White arc, Kurokawa has begun a French translation of the X & Y arc in the same format. Similarly, in commemoration of the release of Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, Kurokawa has begun an omnibus release of the original Ruby & Sapphire arc, previously unissued in France. After that, it continues with the launch the launch of Gold, Silver & Crystal arc in 2016.

Polish

In Poland, the first volume's worth of chapters was translated into Polish by Japonica Polonica Fantastica and published in four monthly issues. The Polish version uses the English "Pokémon Adventures" name. Due to the low popularity of the series in Poland, the series was quickly discontinued and the monthly issues were never collected in a bound volume.

Brazilian Portuguese

Volume one of Pokémon Black & White in Brazilian Portuguese

In August 2014, Panini Comics began releasing the Black & White arc of the Pokémon Adventures manga in Brazilian Portuguese, beginning with Volume 43.

European Spanish

Volume one of Pokémon Rojo, Verde y Azul in Spanish

In Spain, Norma Editorial has acquired the complete license of the manga. Due to the length of the series (52 volumes at the time of announcing the license) and due to different story arcs often starting and ending partway through volumes, Norma Editorial has opted for an omnibus format which groups rounds by chapter, including two simultaneous numbering systems (each volume is numbered based on its position in the entire series as well as numbered based on which chapter the book collects).

Norma Editorial's translation of Pokémon Adventures retains the original right-to-left reading format. New volumes are expected to be released monthly, beginning with Volume 1 on October 29, 2015. For their first releases, Norma Editorial will be alternating between the Red, Green & Blue arc and the Black & White arc.

Pokémon Đặc Biệt volume 10

In Vietnam, Pokémon Adventures (Pokémon Đặc Biệt) is published by Kim Đồng Publishing House, one of the largest manga publishers in Vietnam. The Vietnamese translation is based directly on the Japanese version — the trademarked romanizations of Japanese names are used for Pokémon, character and location names, although move names are translated into Vietnamese language.

Kim Đồng Publishing House's first edition of Pokémon Adventures began in 2003 and ran from Volume 1 through Volume 12, after which the series was discontinued due to Kim Đồng's Japanese partner cancelling their contract. This edition was published in a left-to-right format with reversed artwork.

In late 2014, Kim Đồng renegotiated the rights to the Pokémon Adventures series; however, a series of delays resulted in the release of the first volume to be pushed back from a projected January 2015 release date until April 6, 2015. Volume 2 was planned to be released on April 20 but has been delayed since then, after receiving complaints about some translated terms from readers. This volume was finally released on August 24, and subsequent volumes are scheduled to follow every two weeks on Mondays. Kim Đồng's second edition of Pokémon Adventures are published in the original right-to-left reading format.

Trivia

  • A large amount of the art in Pokémon Adventures is based on the original concept works from the games. For example:
  • Throughout the series, almost every protagonist starts out with a Pokémon other than the traditional starter Pokémon that are chosen in the games, except Emerald, White and Blake. However, each protagonist eventually gets one, usually near the start of the chapter.
  • In some instances in the translated version, the Fire type is referred to as Flame and the Ground type is referred to as Earth.
  • The starters of each region that are given to characters based on the male protagonists in the games cycle through Grass (Red, Diamond and X), Fire (Gold, Black and Sun), and Water (Ruby and Blake).
    • This also applies to characters based on the female protagonists in the games, which cycle through Water (Green, Platinum and Y), Grass (Crystal and White), and Fire (Sapphire). Currently, the only exception to this rule is Whitley. This is only because she has yet to own ANY starter, but had she received a Fire starter, the pattern would remain unchanged.
  • In PSs2, it is mentioned by Red that in the Adventures manga Pokémon have different names in different locations, this references the names Pokémon are given in different languages, like Charizard being called Lizardon (switched around in the Japanese version).
