You know, I never see anyone on /vp/ discussing Pokemon Adventures, and admittedly it's the extension of the franchise that I know the least about. Is it actually worth reading? And if so, which translation is better?
>>
>>30677975
Maybe just up to BW

I personally stopped the Yellow chapters because I didn't like switching from left-to-right, to right-to-left. Now I got others things to do so no catching up.
>>
>>30677975
It's certainly better than the anime, I'm in the middle of the GSC manga. The people who call it edgy have only seen screenshots and have not actually read it.
>>
>>30678515
That's like saying Origins, XY, Generations, and SM are edgy because they're all darker than previous entries.
>>
>>30677975
I used to wait till a gen finished before I read through it, but it is getting ridiculous now. Is Gen 5 completed yet?
>>
>>30679329
yes

You'll hate it by RSE chapter. Kinda like DPPT chapter, then the resolution of the BW chapter will be your sole reason for reading it.
t. person that read PokeSpe
>>
>>30684189

Nah, DP was kind of meh.

If I wanted to experience a gary stu plowing his/her way through a region effortlessly I'd play the games.

At least the others tried to be creative with their characters.
>>
>>30684238
That's the same problem I have with BW2
They made Black2 literally Mister Perfect. And have yet to tie BW2 into BW with the exception of a Mindbroken White cameo
>>
>>30684238
Your complain makes sense with BW2, but with DPP? Explain!
>>
I've read a few volumes of it, it's pretty good. It made me feel weirdly nostalgic for some reason. Maybe because I had a few of those little transparent pokeballs with little pokemon figures inside when I was a kid.

But yeah, it's not really mindblowing either, it's not something I'd read in large chunks.
>>
>BW2 arc has the ultimate gary stu (even if his most stu feature is actually a facade)
>Even so, people will stick to it just to see pic related resolution
I endured two years, i can endure lack2's bullshit just for this.
>>
>>30684302

All I remember from the chapters was Platinum barreling through the region taking down every gym leader in her path+a battle at spear pillar.

That's literally the plot of the games. I want something different from the manga.

By RSE, I mostly mean the asspull arc that was Emerald.
>>
According to the lavender scalations main translator, Kusaka actually hates the remake arcs and he only does them cuz game freak forces him.
>>
The manga made a right with this in ORAS.
The wrongs? Everything else in ORAS.
>>
>>30684724
Their Pikachu fucked, and Red is like the warrior class for Yellow's healing class so they make a cute couple, also Green is way too mature for Red, she works better with Blue
>>
>>30684774
to be fair, the only arc that was never completed was BW. So he probably hates having to un-wrap everything up

fuck, is it worse than Yellow?

>>30684781
GF forced Kusaka to do the ORAS arc, like they forced to do FRLG and HGSS.

>>30684786

Blue hates Green, though. If anyone was to pair Blue, it'd be Diantha. They have an established history together as long time friends without all of the toxic stuff that Blue throws at Green.

In case you don't know, BW2 restarted sone weeks ago in the same web format ORAS used. Hell, i story time the two new chapters in /vp/.

>>30684960

Blue, as in the Gary dude, as in what everyone internationally calls him outside of Japan.

>>30684944
He wrote that ending cuz GF forced him, if it was up to him, he would never touch remakes cuz it forces him to do retcons and shit.

He was contacted by his editors to do Emerald. He was doing R/S and FRLG at the same time, then he had to juggle three mangas.

What? It was another BW2, XY and ORAS situation? Maybe that is why he put BW2 on hold and finished XY and ORAS first.

That makes no fucking sense, you are assuming a character hates other character based on how it treats a different character that has nothing to do with the otger character in question.
Show me a scene where Green says, word by word, that he hatss Blue and will believe you.
>>
>>30684482

It's still just your standard gym quest story+evil team plot ripped directly off the games.

If DP and SM were switched in release order I'd wager that the story would be pretty much identical to Pokespe's minus the dexholder bullshit. It feels like the arc just adapted the stories of the games rather than brining in some of the cool shit like armored archie that you can only get in anime/manga form.

Nope nope nope, I see this in every Special thread and it's wrong. XY is just as good as the other chapters before it. It's not even that this comment said stop at BW, people say read to chapter whatever then stop. Special is good in a sense that none of the main entry chapters are bad. It's when you get to the chapters based off of third versions or sequels where things start to approach bad territory.

This isn't why I disliked it but it felt really weird to me.
Platinum was the main character in the sense that the plot revolved around her and she did most the in game story beats.
Diamond was the main character in the way that he solved every non-game story beat.
Pearl was the main character in the sense that we got to see what he was thinking the most and the camera mostly seemed to stay focused on him, even though he did nothing plot relevant.

Kusaka hasn't turned random characters in evil since gen 2, is not longer necessary as the games give enough evil characters already.

I didn't care for it, personally. I dropped it midway through the RS arc. There are a lot of contrivances, everybody seems to instantly understand everybody else's motives and plans with the slightest hints and huge jumps in logic, and all the protagonists having some sort of power is neat in theory, until it starts getting hamfisted.

Crystal's thing is that she's good at kicking Pokeballs at targets. She's the Capture expert, and is shown repeatedly catching huge amounts of Pokemon. That makes sense. Gold's thing is that he plays pool and was raised with Pokemon, while being an unlikable shounen jerk. He is shown, throughout his arc, hatching a Togepi egg over time. That's his only interaction with an egg for the majority of the series. The climax of the GSC arc is him hatching a freshly hatched egg by touching it, and the resultant newborn Pichu immediately defeats the villain with a very strong electric attack. Gold's title is that of Hatcher/Breeder. That seemed really dumb, and put a bad taste in my mouth. That being said, having Ruby be a Co-ordinator made for an interesting hook to the RS arc.
>>
>>30689390
I don't get why you think the titles are bad.
The DPP trio are named after the lake trio titles and Black and White are tge dreamers because the whole dream world thing gen 5 had.
>>
>>30689390
Once you hit BW, there's no more titles. Black and White are called the dreamers, but it has no relevance to the plot
>>
>>30689390
>everybody seems to instantly understand everybody else's motives
There was nearly a war between the Gym Leaders in RS because of half of them siding with Magma and half siding with Aqua. They didn't actively become members but passively believed a certain team was in the right.

Ruby - Charmer

Platinum - Understander

>>30689654
Both are literally fuled by their dreams (win the league and pokemon actors),aybe is jot part of the plot but is an important part of their characters.
Also, it makes the ending even more tragic, as Black final words were basically about whiye's dream, mayve that is why she hasn't given her company up, but i am damn sure her dream no longer makes her happy.

>>30689606
They're bad when they don't make sense, or exist to fix a shitty plot. Crystal as the Capture expert is totally fine. Gold's thing is dumb. That was the whole thing I tried to explain.

It was explained that most of Gold's hatcher ability was attained mostly from being raised in a house full of Pokemon all his life, and considers them more as family rather than pets you can care for/train/collect. And with that background, he was able to be a great motivator and influencer towards his team. This has been hammered through out the arc, whether it was during that one time he hatched Togepi and he inherited Gold's gambling personality, to Gold's responses to how he thought of Pokemon in contrast to his rivals/foils Silver and the Masked Man, who thought of Pokemon as just tools. His shounen jerk attitude kindof further emphasized how much of an influence this guy is (even if he is an ass at times), because hell, if there was someone who wanted to get a point across, it would pretty much be this guy.

I will admit that the way they handled showing off his ability could've been handled a LOT better, but I saw what they were going for and it made sense in the grand scheme of things.

Also remember that Pichu's egg was already being taken care of beforehand by the daycare couple (who Gold had to assist for a few days), so it's not exactly a fresh new egg. Combine that with Gold's pichu basically being the son of Red's Pika and Yellow's Chuchu (who have surpassed the average pikachu by this point), and it's no wonder that this particular pichu wrecked shit in the finale. Call it a deus ex in a way, but it didn't come out of nowhere.

>>
>>30677975
We use to have regular threads, but it comes out so fucking slow, gets translated even slower, and almost everything after DP wasn't worth the wait.
>>
>>30694958

Not to mention the quadruple dipping the mangaka has to do to catch up with the constant unrelenting release of new Pokemon games each year. We had nearly 4 arcs being translated and released simultaneously within a year. The story past BW is hard to follow at this point.
>>
>>30694904
That is because BW2 isn't finished and Nate's Dewott hasn't evolve yet. It is obvious he will evolve later. Juniper senoir also have "Samurott that appear out of nowhere and got quickly forgotten" just to force pledge moves scene in the manga.
If you want to see which starter the author truly hate, notice which one didn't even got featured in that pic.
I honestly don't understand why Delphox line triggered him so much.

in other words, they were a balanced group that got good development. DPP is basically a well made classic story, rather than some disjointed succession of battles which is what adventures tends to be.

Pokemon being fucked up isn't new, it's been the trend since Gen 4, and 5 was easily twice as fucked as SM. 'But the Pokedex!' has been fucked up since Gen1. Go read about how Weepinbell slowly slices apart and devours its prey while they're still alive.

On Topic, PokeSpe is pretty fucked up for the first two gens, worth looking into. FRLG is also ok, but after that they kinda peter out, not so different or wacky as fucking Zapmolcuno

It really depends on the person. I've seen varying opinions ranging from rage-inducing, downright boredom, to hype incarnate, no matter the arc.

Also note, everything in this series takes place in the same world, so even if one arc is stand-alone, you can bet those characters and events will be referenced or even make cameos/major appearances in later arcs down the line. This doesn't guarantee spoilers, but it helps when you encounter people you don't reconize from previous arcs that suddenly appear out of nowhere.

Anyway, if you want a brief overview:

>RGB:
3 volumes, Kanto region. Red is the main character with his rivals Green and Blue. Basic shounen fare, but very nostalgic if you enjoyed the first gen Pokemon games.
>Yellow:
4 volumes, Kanto. Direct sequel to RGB. Yellow is a decent main character that people seem to love or hate. Lots of RGB cameos, highly recommend reading that before this one. Involves PETA and terrorism (years before it became a plotpoint in GenV).
>GSC:
8 volumes, Johto. Many references and major cameos from RGB and Yellow, and directly continues their story 2 years later. Story COMPLETELY deviates from the game's plot, but is generally received as having one of the best finales.
>RS:
You've read it, and it's a stand-alone arc anyway, so not many cameos or references. For someone else reading, it's 8 volumes, Hoenn, and is basically a romance monster movie drama.
>FRLG:
3 volumes, Kanto. Takes place 5 years after RGB, Yellow, and GSC. Characters from RGB and GSC make appearances and is a continuation to those arcs. Main story revolves around the Sevii Islands and Team Rocket.
>Emerald:
4 volumes, Hoenn. Is a direct sequel to FRLG and RS. Every previous arc is relevant during this story, and a majority of the main characters make an appearance. Emerald is generally considered one of the worst mains, but the finale is worth it for most.

Are any of the arcs from gen 4 on wards any good?
>>
>>30695283
DP is good, but Platinum which finishes off the arc is a bit of a rushed mess. HGSS is similarly rushed but kinda good for reminding you about the early arc stuff. BW is pretty great. BW2 isn't finished so hard to say how good it'll be. XY is hit or miss, ORAS is a character clusterfuck and definitely too short for what they tried. And SM just started. Overall pretty good but arcs have been getting rushed lately.

>DP:
9 volumes, Sinnoh. Stand-alone arc with a minor FRLG reference. The story is very character- driven, mostly around our main trio. Think of it as the anime when it first started back in 1997, but not divulging into a milked cash grab.
>Platinum:
2 volumes, Sinnoh. Direct continuation to DP and it's conclusion. Deals with the same characters from the previous arc and focuses on the Battle Frontier.
>HGSS:
2 volumes, Johto. Takes 3 years after Emerald. Has mostly references from everything up until Emerald. Deals with Arceus, Team Rocket, and the Sinjoh ruins.
>BW:
9 volumes, Unova. Stand-alone arc, but no references from previous arcs outside of a minor Sinnoh cameo. Considered a fan favorite. The ending is rock solid.
>BW2:
Ongoing with 2 volumes, Unova. Takes place 2 years after the events of BW.
>XY:
Technically finished in the magazines, but will have a couple changes after official release (like a new ending). Kalos region, follows the adventures a rag tag team of friends after becoming basically homeless.
>ORAS:
2 volumes, Hoenn. 4-5 years after Emerald. Tons of revelations for RS and Emerald. Involves megevolution and the Zinnia storyline.
>SM:
Alola. Literally just got a chapter translated last week.

It's pretty hard to obtain archived copies of everything up until now, and dubious quality still plagues a good chunk of it. There's a lot of back and forth over the various versions of the early volumes, back from when Viz first fucked it up and from not so great fan translations either replacing only some chapters or mixed in together of varying quality. BW has plagued for years by it's byzantine release order and I'm still not sure if the main hosting site for it has everything. I think it might all be up unwatermarked on Kissmanga, but I haven't gone through it all myself yet. I wouldn't both worrying about a story time until we get a proper collected archive, and certainly not one relying on only what's easily available right now.

There's no real point in doing something like that unless we can get something actually decent overall set up. I mean for fuck's sake, there's STILL two pages left almost completely untranslated from the end of HGSS that apparently no one has ever touched.
>>
>ORAS 4-5 years after Emerald

Wait I thought ORAS and HGSS ended up happening at about the same time explaining why only Yellow was around to help the Johto Dex Holders and Giovanni's recovery? Or was that a translation error on something?
>>
>>30696099

....Yellow was never in HGSS or ORAS. Her cameo was an imposter.
>>
>>30696191
Goddamnit I need to reread through this shit again. I thought it was both an imposter and her being there for them.
>>
>>30684781
Did they do anything useful in the arc?
>>
>>30684781
I like how Ruby &Sapphire get mega Gardevoir&mega Gallade though, even at the expense of Wally. It is a nice callback how they used to reverse typical male/female role.
The "second Courtney/Matt/Shelly/Tabitha" is the dumbest shit ever though. Old Courtney not appear while 2 OC admins nobody care about get a big role instead is epic fail.

BW2 is a bitch to find because of the hiatus, but if you want RBY-BW, its in release order
>>
>>30696926
Honestly though, Courtney coming back would (rightly) steal some focus off of the other characters since she had a sizable role in the original arc, especially with the drama between Ruby and Sapphire going on I could see her inflating the page numbers or making things even more rushed. Would have been nice to see a cameo, like her watching Ruby's contest or being a fellow contest competitor, but what can you do?
>>
>>30696926
And this is why Kusaka hates remakes arcs, they forced gim to do retcons orbstupid explanations like this.
>>
>>30677975
>Red picked Bulbasaur
Stopped reading there.
>>
>>30695581
It was great, if only the hiatus didn't extend the reunion more than was planned.
>>
>>30696191
I just read HGSS and I don't remember her showing up in any way.
>>
>>30699067
Petrili used a mask of her to scare Lance into submission, seriously.
>>
>>30695454
Just binged through XY, waiting for the remaining chapters but I like it a lot.

It really fleshes out the characters of the Kalos region and makes them feel alive. I think its the closest to RBY to playing the game story straight.
>>
>>30699135
Ok, right, I recall that now.
>>
>>30697185
BW2 is up to date in that page.
>>
>Hugh's little sister
I chortled.
>>
>>30699883
To be fair, she doesn't have a game canon name.
>>
>>30699883
>Lass Hugh's Little Sister wants to battle!
>>
>>30700021
Judging by the last chapter, if seems she will take an active part in the plot, i hope she takes back her pokeman by herself.
