The most well known Pokémon manga in Thailand is Pokémon Adventures, translated with the name โปเกมอนสเปเชียล. It is published by เนชั่น เอ็ดดูเทนเมนท์ (Nation Edutainment). It sold in most comic stores along with a translation of Magical Pokémon Journey (โปเกมอน ผจญภัย), which is published by Vibulkij Comics.
