Can we finally admit that Pokémon Adventures, is the best Pokémon manga out of the entire series and that Yellow is the best female character when comparing her to other more bland female main characters that came after her. What about you, /a/? Do you like Pokémon Adventures and Yellow? Or are you one of those contrarians?
I like Black!
>>58509179I'm gonna be real black is the worst MC by far
>>58509283Worst MC is Gold. Literally just an early version of Red who never developed
>>58509163>Yellow is the best female characterBased Yellow enjoyer>>58509305Nah, Gold is cool, I’ve always liked his shtick
>>58509283Nah, the worst MC is Blake. His part was schizophrenic when compared to the other MCs
>>58509163I don't know if I'd say Yellow is the "best", but she sure is one of my favorites from Adventures. Wish she appeared outside of the manga
>>58509541that's just because of how terribly they handled B2W2Blake actually has a personality that isn't a shounen hero and he is a child soldier which makes for good backstory
I haven't read Adventures past RGB yet but I was wondering if it ever jumps the shark. Is there a point I should stop reading after or does it consistently stay good?
>>58509163>the best Pokémon manga out of the entire seriesI am confused. Is Pokémon Adventures just the Red/Blue/Green/Yellow saga? I am not terribly familiar with PokeSpe.
>>58509627its the whole damn series... still going strong to this day
>>58509620It’s good, but black and white 2 is where it’s awful and Nintendo/Gamefreak churning out games and remakes at a fast pace, which made the mangaka rush the later parts at an impossible pace. Black was a stone for so long
Does anyone remember that one Manga/webcomic where at the start its sort of like a CYOA and hitler gets summoned but is never mentioned again afterwards, becomes more of a standard story and at the end they fight MissingNo? It has been 15-20 years since I read it and I just remembered that it existed 30 minutes ago. Couldn't find it again though.
>>58509305>never developedlol?
>>58509812Do you deny it
It was great back when the games had minimal plot so the author could add his own stuff. Now that the games are more narrative heavy there's less of a need for pokespe.Nowadays it's specially bad because the manga is monthly( or biweekly?) and with the tight generation release schedule the author has little chapter time to do anything interesting before the next game is knocking on his doorstep.
>>58510147>Nowadays it's specially bad because the manga is monthly( or biweekly?) and with the tight generation release schedule the author has little chapter time to do anything interesting before the next game is knocking on his doorstepMan, blame Gamefreak/Nintendo for that for rushing out new games and not giving the author some early release of the games
>>58510155I know it's not how the nips to things but Pokespe could just use two artists rotating every other week (they'd aim to make their styles similar) while Kusaka still helms the plot. That way we could get the story on a weekly schedule and actually go somewhere.Giving him an early PV of the game's plot too. Wasn't this the case at least until the end of the platinum arc?
>>58510226>I know it's not how the nips to things but Pokespe could just use two artists rotating every other week (they'd aim to make their styles similar) while Kusaka still helms the plot. That way we could get the story on a weekly schedule and actually go somewhere.I do hope they go done this route, or give the guy more aides. There's no reason why Pokemon Special needs to have long release schedule >Wasn't this the case at least until the end of the platinum arc?No? I think he complained about needing to buy the games, 100% finish them, then write/draw the manga
>>58509163>YellowDid the author ever finish the whole Yellow-Red-Misty love triangle? Or is he still blueballing us still?
>>58510084Yeah. He's still brash but he's far more of a considerate person by the end of the arc and HGSS.
>>58510394Can you really call this "blueballing" when they haven't been relevant in the manga for years anyway? Last time we saw them was what, HGSS or something? Maybe even earlier?
>>58510455considering that it's been a thing since the first arc, it's blueballing us
>>58510455iirc Yellow’s last proper appearance was is the fucking Emerald arc, it’s been a really long time
>>58509163You already made this thread.>What about you, /a/? Do you like Pokémon Adventures and Yellow? Or are you one of those contrarians?Fuck off.
>>58509594I prefer Whitley. She was better with how she was with Team Plasma and was essentially the last member standing.
Red's Pikachu and Yellow's Pikachu are married with kids. Their trainers must follow suit
Any recommendations before I start reading it?
>>58511321The yellow arc is the best of the series and hasn’t been topped.
>>58510695>iirc Yellow’s last proper appearance was is the fucking Emerald arcWhat the fuck. Why did the author drop her?
>Go to pixiv to find some new fanart of Adventures>It's all ai nowGrim
Adventures is good, but seeing lots of pokemon die in the manga is lowkey kind of depressing.
>>58511974>AI YellowsOh jesus my dick
>>58510962>Red's Pikachu and Yellow's Pikachu are married with kidsThat's fucked up
>>58512289At least its all nice
>>58510482RedxYellow is tired anyway, let me show you where it's really at
>>58512695I’m pretty sure LAN e is the only character that Yellow hates with a passion. Which is funny since they have the same powers.
>>58512705Yellow is the all-loving, "wants to get along with everyone" type, it'd be out of character for her to hate him even if they were enemies once. The most we know about how they currently feel about each other in canon is that Lance is implied to be terrified of her (and Petrel used that against him in HGSS).
>>58512734Lance destroyed a city and killed tens of thousand of people
>>58509305>never developedCould you explain what you mean by this? Genuinely asking, not a Goldfag.
>>58512883>Lance destroyed a cityAnd still got his redemption afterwards.>killed tens of thousand of peopleNever confirmed.
bump
I don't have something to say about Adventures right now but for those who are having a drought I can recommend Festival of Champions, it feels similar to Adventures' tone. Beware that it's not finished and the updates are slow.
>>58512994What redemption did he have? Yellow beat his ass and then he hid.
>>58509620Up to platinum its great.But after that is when the rushed pace of the games starts becoming an issue and the writer has to do a lot more in less time.(and even starts skipping non-new gen games)Though there are some good parts after that.
>>58514376>What redemption did he have?Regretted his actions, helped defeat the Masked Man in the GSC arc and helped save Johto in the HGSS arc. Is that maybe not redemption?
>>58515039Millions died and a city was destroyed
>>58515582>[HEADCANON] and a city was destroyedAnon...
>>58515623Do you not see a crater in the middle of a city that's supposed to be a metropolis?
>>58515702I do see the crater. I don't see any corpse, nor anyone talking about casualties. Do you see corpses, or anyone talking about casualties?
>>58515712You trolling anon? Lance destroyed a couple blocks of a heavily populated city. There’s going to be at least, a thousand dead, minimum
you guys have any good fanfics? Be they webnovels or fancomics?
>>58516391I don't know why we're still arguing about this when this is actually explained by Lance himself (I'd admittedly forgotten) shortly after the Hyper Beam.>-b-but he says there might have been one or two trainers who diedWhich, last I checked, isn't anywhere close to thousands or millions. Even then, it's still not confirmed, just expressed as a possibility. If Lance really had killed people, it'd most certainly have been brought up and addressed by other characters anyway.
>>58509179Hi White!
>tfw no pokemon adventures animeIt will go down as the BIGGEST lost opportunity of our lifetime
>>58516832>Trusting a guy, whose sole purpose at the time exterminating all of mankindAnon, I don't know what to say.
>>58512507The soul is gone
Do you guys know where I can read the recent chapters of this manga?
>>58512900evidently he doesn't have an answer
>>58509163Edgeventures is forgettable dogshit solely propped up by contrarians as the edgy kool kids klub alternative to the anime. It does not resemble Pokemon at all and has negative amounts of merit.
The best girl is Blue, and Red should marry her.
>>58518476It has a lot of unique takes in terms of plot but it also shows a lot of love for how the game works.
>>58511321After reading each volume, check its respective storytime threads for reactions and OC fanart.>2022https://pastebin.com/YbcXT6qc>2023https://pastebin.com/3hhJbL5u
>>58518600Sorry bro, but Yellow got to him first.
>>58518476Yea sure bud. Why don't you return to consooming whatever slop you were enjoying before coming here?
>>58518476>t. ashnimefag
>>58518773That's the only thing keeping that ship afloat.Anyway, the obsession with shipping is the worst part of the Pokespe fandom.
I'm glad that a manga general never got off the ground, Yellowfags are fucking obnoxious.>>58518600Agreed. If Red ends up in an actual romance with anyone, which will never happen, then he has the most foundation for it with Blue (girl). Especially after FRLG when they had a heart-to-heart conversation at their lowest point, revealing that not only does Blue feel indebted to Red for helping her, Blue also has a lot to offer Red in terms of a relationship where she can understand his pain and is willing to comfort him.Meanwhile Red's relationship to Yellow is a complete nothingburger made up of tropes and shipbaiting, with no real substance. Red has never been shown reciprocating Yellow's romantic feelings, and this caused Yellowfags to spread the meme that "Red is oblivious to love" (he isn't, because he's reacted to Blue before) and bastardized his character. Yellow hasn't even shown up in canon for over a decade, while Red and Blue cameo'd together in ORAS to shill Megas.>>58518891This is also true.
>>58518931>If Red ends up in an actual romance with anyone, which will never happen,The only way for this to happen is if in the games Red is already married, probably to a random NPC, and therefore would sink all the Red!ships.
>>58518476The Ashnime was mired with a ton of issues and inconsistencies, there's not a single kid that wasn't pissed off at Charizard screwing over Ash and then getting abandoned later, or from Ash never evolving half his team or ignoring his powerhouse Pokemon. Adventures was fun by comparison and went batshit insane sometimes, which was a very fun spin on Pokemon. >It does not resemble Pokemon at allNigger, have you seen season 1 of the anime? Have you seen Shudo's outlined plan for the anime and the first movie? Please go back to plebbit with your shit opinions.
>>58517604>thinking someone who supposedly murdered thousands or millions of people would just be allowed to come back and redeem himself either without facing the appropriate punishment for his extremely serious crime or at least being constantly reminded of itI'm just as stumped as you, anon.>>58518891>Anyway, the obsession with shipping is the worst part of the Pokespe fandom.That's the case for a lot of fandoms and especially in manga/anime. If you're gonna participate in such fandoms, you'll either just have to accept that shipfags will always be around the corner and ignore them, or not participate at all.
Crystal is best girl
>>58519195
I'm still reading, RS arc was pretty fucking good up to the last 50-ish pages or so, I don't know what the fuck Kusaka was thinking there but overall I also don't think it's enough to ruin the experience.
>>58519604Based
>>58509767Blackadventurescomic
>>58516783What are you interested in? Specific characters, arcs, regions? Adventure, drama, shipping, smut? Huge multigenerational Pokedex Holder team-ups against evil on a global scale plot?
>>58520104Anything at this point. I tried fanfiction websites and there’s nothing.
>>58519604It’s sick how RGBY, GSC, RS, LGFR, Emerald are kino and interconnected but for whatever reason, they drop that in the later arcs.
Volume 65 out yet? Soon?
>>58518931>If Red ends up in an actual romance with anyone, which will never happen, then he has the most foundation for it with Blue (girl).what about misty?
>>58521194Didn’t she get cucked by yellow?
>>58521204Take your cuck fantasies elsewhere, retard
>>58521232Stop denying the truth
>>58520694>>58514127Mentioned Festival of Champions above if you haven't heard of it.
>>58521588Didn’t that stop updating
>>58521636A new chapter was released recently, actually. It's just that the updates are extremely slow
>>58521733Oh shit, I just check, didn't know that.
Red likes women with big breasts and butts. If he bathed in hot springs with Yellow, who is flat, he wouldn't be excited at all. He would see her as just another guy, not a woman.
>>58518600She won
>>58520694I quickly looked through my collection and compiled these stories.>https://archiveofourown.org/works/13875483>https://archiveofourown.org/works/14692875>https://archiveofourown.org/works/22569919The first two are classics. Very long adventure drama stories involving all the gen 1-4 Dexholders fighting evil to save the world. Tries to stick to canon. Later stories inclide the gen 5-7 Dexholders. Lots of great action and melodrama with some death. There is shipping. Characters like Blue (the girl) and most after gen 3 aren't written that well. The author's pet is Platinum, which might hurt your experience if you already hate her for being a Mary Sue. The author also starts hating random characters and switching opinions on ships later on, so they just disappear from later stories.>https://archiveofourown.org/works/13667028>https://archiveofourown.org/works/14169204Written by the same author as above. These are also long ensemble cast stories with all the Dexholders, but this time they're in episodic joke or shipping situations. A lot of the chapters can be funny, but I can't remember if they were actually any good. Again a lot of these are classics.>https://archiveofourown.org/works/2746598/chapters/6156842Very long Battle Royale/killing game story featuring all the Dexholders up to gen 6. Lots of action, drama, death and some gore. Some Dexholders are more in character than others, especially the gen 4-6 guys who get the short end of the stick, but otherwise it's not too bad. There's some shipping but it's not the main focus.
>>58523944>https://archiveofourown.org/works/14202633Story focusing on Red about the gen 1-3 Dexholders and side characters just hanging out. Not that long, no real plot. Mostly canon-compliant and kind of funny. No shipping here unless mild Ruby/Sapphire counts. The author has a nice series of canon-compliant stories in general here: https://archiveofourown.org/series/1002156>https://archiveofourown.org/works/20392456Unfinished but obligatory mid-length high school fanfic featuring all Dexholders from gen 1-7. A lot of drama, humor, school politics and shipping. Very interesting and stands out for a highschool fic since it actually has a plot, but just suffers a bit from character bloat.>https://archiveofourown.org/works/16947360Another high school fanfic but it's much shorter. Features the gen 1-3 Dexholders, shipping, and a lot of melancholy instead of humor.>https://archiveofourown.org/works/8476948/A multi-chapter joke/crack story about the gen 1-3 Dexholders meeting their fans and trying to escape the mob. Just some funny stupid shenanigans, not too long. There is shipping.>https://archiveofourown.org/works/20431859Short story about the gen 1-7 Dexholders going to Platinum's birthday party. Can't remember if there's shipping but it's not much if there is.>https://www.fanfiction.net/s/7693508/1/Hide-the-GunsShort story about the gen 1-4 fire-type Dexholders (male Green, Gold, Sapphire, Pearl) teaming up to solve the problems in their love lives together. Very funny character drama, no real plot. Obviously there is shipping, but more importantly, there is bromance. The parallel stories by the same author about the other starter types aren't as good, this is the best one.
>>58523965>https://archiveofourown.org/works/43822561A short story about the gen 1-3 Dexholders teaming up to give Silver a surprise. Cute and heartwarming, no shipping.>https://archiveofourown.org/works/13700556Short funny story about the gen 1-3 Dexholders having a picnic. The author snuck Gold/Silver in here for some reason but otherwise no shipping.>https://archiveofourown.org/works/59028418Long story about the Johto Dexholders going back in time to witness the fall of the Ruins of Alph. Plot, lore and friendship, no shipping.>https://archiveofourown.org/works/42749418Mid-length horror story about Gold trying to hatch a glitched egg. Mostly the Johto Dexholders and Gold and Silver's friendship. No shipping.>https://archiveofourown.org/works/50207689Slightly long adventure drama story about Sapphire going blind during the RS arc, and how this changes both Ruby and all events going forward. Action plot, melodrama and Ruby/Sapphire friendship/shipping.>https://archiveofourown.org/works/12822303Slightly long story about Emerald and Sapphire becoming friends. Mostly an exploration of Emerald's character. Emotional drama and some shipping.>https://archiveofourown.org/works/13450542A story about Pearl and his friendship to Diamond and Platinum, and how he worries they're growing apart. Some emotional drama and a lot of friendship. No shipping if I remember correctly.
>>58523944>>58523965>>58523983Bless you anon.
>>58523983>https://archiveofourown.org/works/38169001Very long and unfinished anime/manga crossover story where Ash Ketchum visits the gen 1-7 Pokespe characters one region at a time. It's not bad at all, if you like both the anime and Pokespe you might be surprised at its faithfulness to the source material. All the characters mostly get along but there's some emotional drama for conflict. There is an action plot, Ash/Serena shipping and some other pairings.I'd go find some more old stories I liked, but I have to go touch grass now.
>>58523522Based!
>>58523944>>58523965>>58523983This is some good as fuck fanfics.

>>58525829SM is good. The ending is a buy dark for me.
>Mangadex removed all of the Pokemon Adventure chapters of X & Y, Sword & Shield, Sun and Moon, and Omega Ruby & Alpha α SapphireFuck, Where am I supposed to read them now?
