In the English manga volumes published by [[VIZ]] as well as the Japanese volumes, the {{chap|Red, Green & Blue}} and this arc are both unnamed. However, in the manga listing from VIZ's official website, those two arcs are treated as a single 7-volume arc titled "'''Red and Blue'''".<ref name="VIZ list">[https://www.viz.com/read/manga/pokemon-adventures/all Pokémon Adventures Manga - VIZ]</ref> | |||
In the Japanese official website, the second arc is known as '''イエロー編''' (''Yellow arc'').<ref>[http://corocoro.tv/pokesp/story/comic/tanoshimi/what.html ポケSPの楽しみ方 - Corocoro.tv]</ref> | |||
The second arc was retroactively named "'''Yellow'''" in [[Hidenori Kusaka]]'s message from the English version of [[Pokémon Adventures volume 14]] published by VIZ. However, in the Japanese version of his message, this arc was mentioned by number instead of by name: | |||
* Japanese version: | |||
*: 「7{{ruby|冊|さつ}}って{{ruby|第|だい}}1{{ruby|章|しょう}}と'''{{ruby|第|だい}}2{{ruby|章|しょう}}'''」(seven volumes: the first and '''second''' arcs) | |||
* English version: | |||
*: ''"[...] the Red, Blue and Green episodes plus the '''Yellow''' episodes total seven volumes [...]"'' | |||
It is also known as the "'''2nd Chapter'''" in the story recaps published in the English volumes from {{MangaArc|FireRed & LeafGreen}} and {{MangaArc|Emerald}}. | |||
