Message from Hidenori Kusaka[]
On rare occasions, I get the opportunity to meet my readers and talk to them, And whenever I meet a young fan, guess what question I'm asked the most… "What is you favorite Pokémon?" of course! They always ask me that. And I always have trouble answering. (LOL) Currently, there are 649 different Pokémon! It isn't easy to choose a number one out of so many! Hmm, I'm still thinking about it… How should I answer that question…today?
Message from Satoshi Yamamoto[]
Let the festival begin! Is he a troublemaker who creates chaos wherever he appears? The benchwarmer nobody can rely on? Or actually a tried and true hero?! I'm the one who draws him, but even I'm not sure! I've been waiting for a chance to activate him by drawing him again though. Gold, you outspoken scamp… You're back and ready for more!
