In manga, an {{wp|omnibus edition}} is a volume release collecting multiple volumes or chapters which were originally released separately. Manga publishers release omnibus collections typically of older works, combining them in a bargain format and often collecting a particular story arc, although some omnibus releases cover an entire manga series.
 
To date, the [[Pokémon Adventures]] manga has been released in omnibus format in two different countries: in Japan and in {{pmin|France}}.
 
==List of Pokémon Adventures omnibus volumes==
===Japan===
====2011 releases====
In 2011, a series of omnibus releases were announced in Japan, collecting the {{chap|Ruby & Sapphire}}. The {{chap|Ruby & Sapphire}} was chosen due to its high popularity in Japan. These volumes were issued under [[Shogakukan]]'s "My First WIDE" brand.
 
While [[My First Wide: Pocket Monsters Special Ruby Sapphire Chapter volume 1|Volume 1]] was released in March 2011, the other two planned volumes were cancelled and Volume 1 was quietly discontinued. This is believed to be due to the depictions of earthquakes and tsunami in the {{chap|Ruby & Sapphire}}, which were deemed inappropriate following the {{wp|2011 Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami}}.<ref>[http://pk-mn.com/n/pokemon-special-konbini-rs-my-first-big/ Pokémon Memo] (Japanese language) (retrieved October 10, 2014)</ref>

====2014 releases====
In 2014, [[Shogakukan]] announced that they would be releasing a new omnibus edition of the {{chap|Ruby & Sapphire}}, in commemoration of the release of [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire]]. The volumes will be released under [[Shogakukan]]'s "My First Series" brand, which are bargain-priced volumes sold only in Japanese convenience stores. A total of four volumes will be released, beginning with volume one on October 24. All four volumes are expected to be released by the end of December.
 
[[Satoshi Yamamoto]] confirmed on [https://twitter.com/satoshi_swalot/status/517440721674989569 his Twitter account] that the new series of volumes has no connection to the 2011 releases and that the 2011 releases have been permanently discontinued.

===France===
Beginning in June 2014, {{pmin|France|European French}} publisher Kurokawa began releasing the {{chap|Red, Green & Blue}} and the {{chap|Yellow}} together as a series of three omnibus volumes. While the {{chap|Red, Green & Blue}} and the {{chap|Yellow}} had been previously released in France by publisher Glénat, these volumes feature a new translation. Kurokawa's omnibus volumes contain all the adventure route maps from the original Japanese volumes, but lack the character introduction pages from the beginning of the volumes.
