It may be irrelevant, but they were still tied to a degree (and more so than Ruby/Sapphire were to the arcs before it), and released as part of the series.

I thought I read somewhere that volume 43 would have some HGSS chapters in it too. Maybe not the full volume, but some chapters included nonetheless. That info could've been wrong though. Oh well, it...

Oh I know that; that's why I think it's silly they've still been holding back on some of the older volumes in the first place.


It could possibly be 3 volumes. You do have a point though. Maybe...

They didn't really have a choice with those though, lol. But yeah, if they bother to release R/S, FR/LG and Emerald they'll probably do HGSS too, unless they're only releasing them on anniversaries...

Hopefully they'll do what they did with D/P/Pt and BW and have them be their own set of volumes. I don't quite like the idea of giving the volumes the wrong number, and I don't really think Viz would...

It's actually not weird since that was the same release rate for volumes 1-14, and it only makes sense the volumes after it but before the DP ones would be released at the same rate.


Yeah,...

Well they've updated the release dates for every volume, and interestingly enough the first volume of Ruby/Sapphire will come out in the month of American Ruby and Sapphire's anniversary, while the...

They've also marked volumes 16 and 17 now too. I guess we'll know for sure if/when we see them appear on Amazon. If they do we should also get some volume covers and synopsis before too long as well....

I'm really glad to hear that Viz is actually going to release the BW volumes. I was uncertain whether they would or not so this comes as a pleasant surprise.


Why? Based on the pattern I always...

It is. Special is the original Japanese name for the series.

To be honest I'm not too surprised. I really think most things are like that; the difference with Special is it's magnified due to its massive popularity with Pokemon fans. (to a point that it's even...

Is there any weekly kids magazines they could get their work published in?


Apparently things are working out well enough for the magazines to where they're content just sticking with how things...

Ahhhh, that makes sense. It's just too bad that only one of the magazines they have is monthly.


Yeah, I know it can't, and I realize volume-only releases might not be a good move to make either....

As for magazine releases, the only reason I can think of why the magazines do it that way is (like Gotpika said) for the money. As for why Kusaka and Yamamoto put up with it, they seem to have...

Out of curiosity, can someone link me to where they said this again? Because they also said (in an email to me, no less) that they were "relaunching" the series with DP, and that more demand for...

And Crys' mother's slap scene. :x

Oh that's interesting. But why did Viz edit the already edited release? Just to be extra careful or was it still a bit risque?

But doesn't TPCi hold the rights to everything Pokemon anime-related? So wouldn't they have to be the ones to produce the dub?

I wouldn't say he likes to pull retcons. A retcon means he is going against something already established, and it usually is used negatively. And if memory serves, it was always just a case of him...

Ah...that actually makes sense. xD

I could understand not minding it, but actually liking it? Why!? xD

No worries, I can see how you'd make the mistake. Just wanted to let you know was all.

At least you knew of those. I didn't even know any Pokemon manga existed until 2009 I believe it was, lol....

I hate dentists as well. :x

Sorry, but no way I can pick just one. xD

-Blue (girl)
-Gold
-Ruby
-Sapphire
-Platinum

That would be cool. :3 And I wouldn't be surprised if that is the case; stuff like that is why Special is called Special. xD
