@xyzzy Any updates?

The scanslation team is still working on it. One page took over three hours to clean and redraw because the author uses Moon Force as one of the moves in the chapter, but the English version is Moon Blast. The redrawer stated in a Reddit post that they’re still waiting for their translator to finish up so they can typeset it.

@xyzzy Oh wow, that does look like a lot of work. It'd take me three hours to do something even a quarter of that size.

Any updates?

Thanks for update. This Pokemon story is one of the best!

 

[kalton]

You can tell that this is just a labor of love from the artist. ESPECIALLY in the Karen vs Green fight

I only started reading this now and after seeing Gold in chapter 4 I can already tell this is gonna end up with Red vs Gold at the top of Mt. Silver. Super excited to keep reading, this is exactly what I hoped Pokemon Adventures would be but sadly fell short to deliver.

Can't add it in the covers section because editing has been locked for some reason, but the most recent compilation cover has been released.

Spoiler

Also, the author recently sold chapter 14 at the most recent Comiket. It's only like twenty-something pages, but I saw some places that may need significant redraws, so give Cosmic Enzyme some time to work on it.

It is of course a great read. The art is superb. The battle scene have nothing to be complained about. The plot is indeed doesn't lack anything in it. But, for me who enjoy reading the original manga version. This story is easier to write. The original besting this in the larger story building scale. This story have a problem in age of the characters and the gym system in it. Maybe it is just because this is the author's intention to be different, to be different can be better though. But, if this is going to be running in longer time, this gonna be a problem (because it can make a ruin in the reader's who completely understand pokemon world), hard to predict.

The anime is mediocre in all of way. Because it's for kids probably. There is a better version but it just produced in some story clip. Just like this doujinshi. It have different area to compared.

I hope the artist make a joint production with the original in the future. It can be booming and make the anime producer convinced to produce a better approach in their products.

This is so good, MUCH better than any offical pokemon story.

This is SHOCKINGLY good for a doujin. You can tell the author not only knows their Pokemon Lore but the personal takes on characterization of well known characters and the world of pokemon at large are, in my opinion, interesting and well executed. Pokemon is a franchise I love more than literally any other. It's so refreshing to read something set in the universe that feels so well thought out and engaging.

The only thing this is missing is getting 6-0d by that ABR stall

 

[Zethuron]

Most likely the greatest pokemon manga ever created. And thats a shame that the others just dont come close to this in quality.

Misty in this doujin, feel so stylish, man the artist doin a good job on designing Misty.

 

[siiddheshwgh]

Man! I just discovered it and now I am so annoyed the comiket had to be cancelled. I don't know when the next chapter of this will come out.

 

[Isuk]

Can't wait for a slaking that was trained to overcome its ability

 

[beuhbizarre111]

Very good

 

[eightants]

This is insanely good. It definitely wouldn't be as good without the source material, but it builds upon it so well, giving us the stories we always wanted to see (Raticate, trauma from pokemon battling, motivation for battling). The art is also amazing. I came across this online and thought it was official and ended up reading all the way to FRLG before I realised the manga doesn't cover this at all, and had to do research to find this doujin.
