::From what I've seen, the table of contents for each volume, and also sometimes the chapter cover, is the only place "Adventure" is used in this context. It's capitalized as "Adventure" there, but I've been treating it as a common noun in the same way we use "episode" to describe episodes of the anime, and not "Episode".

:::So while most VIZ-licensed manga do refer to their sub-volume divisions as "chapters" (EToP, MPJ, DPA, GRT, the movie adaptations [Volcanion/ICY/Zeraora], Journeys), [[Pokémon Horizon]] used the format "Event 01" and [[Pokémon Ranger the Comic: Double Mission]] used "Episode One". Checking some of the manga VIZ hasn't licensed, [[Pokémon Gotta Catch 'Em All]] used the format ゲット1 (Get 1), [[Pocket Monsters Platinum: Aim to Be Battle King!!]] used the format "BATTLE.1", [[Pokémon - The Legend of the Dragon King]] used the format 第1局 (Game 1 [of shōgi]), and [[Pocket Monsters BW: Good Partners]] used the format "EPISODE 01". So for consistency, if we're going to refer to the ones from Adventures as "adventures" based on the table of contents usage, I think we should also refer to the ones from these series as "events", "episodes", "gets", "battles", "games [of shōgi]", and "episodes", respectively. --[[User:Abcboy|Abcboy]] ([[User talk:Abcboy|talk]]) 06:16, 1 August 2023 (UTC)
