Pokémon Adventures

Pokémon Adventures (Japanese: ポケットモンスターSPECIAL, Hepburn: Pocket Monsters SPECIAL, trans. lit. Poketto Monsutaa SPECIAL), int. PA, is manga based on the game characters along with some from the original manga. Its storyline resembles that of the games more than Pokémon the Series but has a rather darker tone. The author of the series is Hidenori Kusaka and was illustrated by Mato for the first 9 volumes. However, she suffered from an illness which left her unable to draw correctly and forced her to withdraw from the serial publication. From the 10th volume onward, Satoshi Yamamoto took over. The trim size for each volume is 5" x 7½".

The series follows the many kinds of adventures of the main cast throughout the Pokémon World. An omnibus collection of the first 29 volumes is collected as part of Collector's Edition series. In addition, stories about the two protagonists in the Best of Series: Red and Yellow.
