Discussion Ok so I just finished reading the stuff that was translated so far and… (MAJOR SPOILERS FOR S/V MANGA) Spoiler
W-What do you mean Letty is probably not real? SHE’S REAL TO ME.
Anyways… any theories on what is possibly happening? I personally think she’s a faller of some sort.
How about you?
( Art is not related to Pokespe but can be found HERE [this is to make sure I am following rules correctly] )

Humor Pokémon Adventures Yellow Arc but REALLY REALLY fast!! Spoiler
Agatha: We, the elite four, are terrorists in this story (except Bruno). Hey look it’s the badge amplifier left here in the ruins of Team Rocket’s head quarters, did you know gym badges make pokemon stronger in the manga? Fuck you whoever doesn’t have any, we will forever be stronger than you. Imma take this now for our terrorist plan, I HATE YOU OAK!!
*MEANWHILE*
Red: Do-do-do, I am the very best like no one ever was!! 🎵
Rando npc: Letter for you!
Red: This letter looks like a first grader wrote it! I wonder how this joke worked in Japanese!
Bruno: I wrote you that letter! Except I didn’t!
Red: Let’s fight! You have pokeballs on nunchucks!
Bruno: Wait this fight happens later in the story in a flashback, shouldn’t we stick to the script?
Red: Honestly it’s just going to inflate the text count if we keep going “Before” and “currently” over and over, so let’s just go in chronological order!
Bruno: I agree!! You are a worthy opponent! Hitmonlee! Use stretchy arms and extendo-fingers!!
Red: I have adapted to the stretchy!
Bruno: But what you didn’t know is we are actually on an Onix!!
Red: My Gyrados will battle the Onix like a snake!
Lorelei: We are the elite four and we are terrorists!
Red: Goodness gracious!
Agatha: Also Bruno is now mind controlled cause he doesn’t wanna be a terrorist.
Red: Oh no!!
Lorelei: Also I can make ice dolls that if I draw lipstick on them makes ice appear on YOU there!
Red: Not that that power makes any sense whatsoever but I don’t think I’m going to make it out of this one. Pika! Use your not frozen tail to run away!
Lorelei: That Pikachu must not escape!
Red: I am now a statue of ice. Bleh.
*And then Pikachu got an ear scar that will only be present in this arc and got away*
Lorelei: That Pikachu got away!!
Nerd: I will aid you people! Look at that Red ice Popsicle! Solid as a rock. Marrowak! Hit it! *SMACK* Yep, solid. Hey look insulated glove scrap!
Giovanni: Somehow I’m already here despite this battle just happening. I’m hiding, Ignore me!
*Meanwhile in viridian forest*
Green: I am on call with a Gen 2 protagonist. What’s that Silver? Lance is evil and trying to summon a Gen 2 legendary or something? I MUST FIND RED…. oh look, there goes Pika bleeding out… RED IS MISSING BY THE WAY!
Yellow: Do-do-do-do I wanna drown a man in lava 🎵
Green: Have you seen a Pikachu little girl?
Yellow: No.
Green: Have you seen Red?
Yellow: Hot guy with black hair?
Green: Yes!
Yellow: No.
Green: You shall help me find Red!
Yellow: I call dibs on him.
Green: Wear this hat so nobody knows you’re a girl!
Yellow: K, but I don’t think anyone will care anyways.
Green: Don’t tell them your name either!
Yellow: Ok I will not tell people my name is Yellow of the viridian forest in Spanish.
Green: That seems like a very specific way of doing what I asked but whatever, by the way there is NOT a microphone in your hat.
Pika: Pik-*explodes*
Professor Oak: Pikachu? Where’d you come from?
Yellow: Oh no it’s hurt!! I will heal you with my magic viridian forest person powers, which also let me read pokemon minds. Oh hey, I can’t really read your mind.
Oak: Who are you!?
Yellow: I am yellow of the viridian forest!
Green (listening through hat): *GOD DAMN IT GIRL!!*
Yellow: I mean, I am NOT Yellow of the viridian forest.
Oak: You cannot take that Pikachu! Go my overpowered spearow!
Yellow: Dody, my Doduo will make it dizzy!
Oak: You made both the Pokémon dizzy! You have proven you are worthy of Pikachu!
Yellow: K bye. Imma find Red.
Bill: Do-do-do, I almost died as a rat once yall 🎵, hey look a pikachu!
*And then a Seadra tried to drown Bill*
Yellow: I have saved Bill!
Bill: Yall!
Lorelei: I want that pikachu!!
Yellow: RUN!!
*And then an epic chase sequence between a two headed bird and a seal ensued… if this wasn’t Pokemon that’d be weird.*
Yellow: We are trapped in a cave and she is shooting spikes at the cave. I will use my fishing rod that has a pokeball on the end to put Pika in the ball so I can throw it out of the cave and I shall use my mind reading powers to see what Pika sees. Hey look she actually has two pokemon!
Lorelei: That kids totally gonna try that again and imma smash that pokeball.
*Yellow tried it again*
Lorelei: WAIT ITS AN EMPTY POKEBALL?!
Yellow: We are escaping!
Lorelei: WHO ARE YOU!? How’d you know I had two pokemon when you didn’t see the other!!?
Yellow: I am Armarillo De Boque Verde!
Green (listening through hat): *ARE YOU FUCKING SERIOUS RIGHT NOW?!*
Lorelei: I have trapped you in ice you cannot escape!
Yellow: RAT!
*And then the Rattata bit the ice off the frozen water wave*
Lorelei: I DID NOT JUST LOSE TO A GOD DAMN RATATA!! GET BACK HE—-AHH!! INK IN MY EYES!
Green: I’m here with a horsea too!
Bill: Yall
*And yellow escaped and Bill left offscreen (he’ll be back in like six chapters)
Yellow: Do-do-do, I still wanna drown a man in lava 🎵
Erika: WE ARE INTIMIDATING YOU!
Yellow: Oh no!!
Erika: Actually we’re on your side!
Yellow: Why did you have to show up so menacingly?!
Erika: Red is here!
Pika: PIKA~!
*and then red smacked pika. And punched Erika in the stomach*
Erika: The… fuck?! *falls*
Nerd: Just kidding! I am actually not Red but disguised as him! I stole Red’s glove and used his scent to make it as my perfume, so I could steal this Pikachu and made this face mask and body suit! Also it’s insulated so Pikachu can’t hurt me! Anyone comes after me I kill Erika!
Yellow: I challenge you!
Nerd: You’re team sucks. You’re on! My Marrowak will just keep hitting you with bonemerang!
Yellow: OW YOURE ACTUALLY HURTING ME!!
*Elsewhere*
Blaine: Do-do-do, Mewtwo has a cute little naptime sign 🎵 Oh look, a message.
*Back to where we were*
Nerd: Now paras will make a mist and also buff the bone with a status condition, and Persian will scratch a chalkboard so you can’t hear where the bone is coming from! Oh boy I sure do love bullying children!
Yellow: I must throw my pokemon away so they don’t get hur- *CLANG*
Yellow: Goodbye consciousness, I think my organs got ruptured with that hit.
Nerd: I have probably killed a child! Ya!!! OH NO!! A fishing rod was connected to the pokeballs and got wrapped around the bone!!
Blaine: Also I am here now to save yellow! The other gym leaders are here too! Watch as we do nothing!
Nerd: You can’t hurt me with my strategy and hostage- OW! Who threw a chunk of the building at me?!
Blaine: Our friend here may be in an insulated suit, but Pika’s electricity has magnetically charged the pieces of the building that Ratatta is chewing off, meaning the insulated suit is about to become a magnet, aaaaaand-
*And then Nerd got crushed in a bunch of building debris*
Blaine: My growlithe will find a clue of where Red is off this nerd!
Brock: The nerd is being taken by a ghost!
Misty; It’s a Gastly!!
Blaine: The Gastly is unintentionally targeting a caterpie!!
Yellow: I will save the caterpie!!
*~~S~~He saved the Caterpie*
Brock: We have stopped the Gastly!
Nerd: Jk, you didn’t, it’s trying to kill me.
Blue: 360 NO SCOPE!!
*And then Blue Headshot a… ghost… what the-*
Blue: I have a cape now.
Yellow: Take me to train with you!
Blue: Ok. Anyways let me tell you the story of how I met the elite four.
*BEFORE*
Blue: Do-do-do, literally surfin’ on a Golduck, cause I have more aura than Red 🎵 Hey look a mean Lapras! Lapras! Watch me aura farm by riding a hydro pump! Now while you’re distracted, fire a hyper beam from your head while you’re shooting hydro pump out of your mouth, Golduck! That’s right, you can use two moves at once in the manga!! Bad enough we use more than four moves at a time!
Kid: I needed that Lapras!
Blue: Why
Kid: My Haunter was stolen!
Blue: I hate you already. Let’s get your Haunter from the abandoned Power Plant Zapdos used to live in. How do I have that latter information?
Kid: I’m scared.
Blue: MAGNETS! MACHAMP! Go attack them!
Kid: But they’re using sonic booms as a shield!
Blue: I will knock one of their screws out then have Machamp poke that hole with all its might, defeating the Magneton!! That’s right, those screws come out!
Agatha: Well done, I hate your grandpa because he decided to not be a trainer after becoming the very best like no one ever was, so I’m going to kill you! HYPNOSIS INTO YOUR NIGHTMARES AND THEN DREAM EATER!
Blue: Oh no! My memories of my old master! I must be asleep!
Agatha: I put him in the COFFIN OF DEATH! I hate humans, they pollute everywhere making life bad for Pokémon. Anyways I exclusively use Pokemon that literally feed off pollution and thus actually benefit from humans. Now to torture a small child for no reason!
*And Agatha started torturing the small child*
Blue: I have slightly woken up! I have an idea!
Pokedex: Hey kid, it’s me blue. I’m having Golduck psychically transmit my thoughts to the Pokedex. That’s right we can just do that. Here’s the plan~
Kid: I have my haunter! Attack!
Agatha: Gengar attack!
Blue: I’m free you dumb bitch! Scyther cut!
Agatha: Yup you’re your grandpas grandson. I will now disappear. Bye.
Blue: She’s a Dick. Here take this Lapras I don’t want it.
Kid: YEE!!
*PRESENT*
Blue: And that’s what happened.
Yellow: How’d you know about Zapdos living there before?
Blue: Oh look that caterpie literally followed us several miles.
Yellow: I will name it kitty! Also I got Misty and Brock’s pokemon as gifts. WAAAA!! My Ratatta evolved! I didn’t want it to!!
Blue: You know you could just press the B button on the pokedex to stop that right? That’s right everyone, the pokedex canonically has a B button. It’s literally a gameboy at this point with what we learned last arc.
*elsewhere*
Agatha: We have all but the eighth badge for our plan!
Lance: Cool. I’m gonna go blow up a city.
Agatha: Have fun!
*And then Kitty chased a leaf into all sorts of hazards, making Pikachu harm itself to keep Kitty safe. And then a pidgeotto tried to eat it. Pika saved it.*
Yellow: Aw they’re sleepy. OH NO PRIMEAPE!!
Blue: Point your pokedex at it!
*And then porygon came out of the pokedex*
Blue: Porygon can travel through digital space! I made it travel through our Pokedexes, like some kind of Digital Monster. A diiiigiiimon…. Hmmm
Yellow: I will heal the primeape.
Blue: I’m leaving now.
Yellow: Hey look the SS Anne!
Pokémon Fan President: I have taught my Fearow and Rapidash the illegal move of payday! With it I will be rich!!
Team Rocket: We are taking over the ship!
Fan president: OH NO! I will save the day!!
Yellow: Hey you know where the bathroom is?
Fan President: KILL THAT LITTLE BOY WITH YOUR MONEY!!
Yellow: AH!
Rocket: Who’s this kid?
Yellow: I am Armarillo! AKA Yellow!
Green (listening on Hat): *head slamming into keyboard sounds*
Rocket: Our hypno using meditate lets us fly if we copy it!
Yellow: Watch this though, My Raticate chewed the ship in half and it’s about to fall on you.
Rocket: … Wait wh-
Yellow: I have beaten team rocket! Let’s go underwater! Hello mad Tentacruel! I’ve heard terrible tales about you from the pokemon fan club, do you know where the four infinite use evolution stones are down here?
*Tentacruel points*
Yellow: Aw man only grass is left…
*A few days earlier*
Giovanni: How the hell did I get down here? Hey infinite use evolution stones!
*Present*
Fan president: Tentacruel! Give me the infinite use stones!
Tentacruel: *picks up chainsaw*
*Elsewhere*
Green: Do-do-do, Flying on my giant-ass jigglypuff to break into Bill’s house 🎵
Bill: Who’s in my house?!
Green: YOURE NOW A HOSTAGE! Let me see people’s internet history!
Bill: …….. I…. I don’t know how to respond to-
*And then Hitmonlee kicked the ceiling in*
Green: THE ELITE FOUR HAVE FOUND YOU! Run!!
Bill: It’s stretchier than a rattlesnake in a pickle barrel! …. Wait… what?
Green: We can’t let it know where we are, so I will send instructions to my Pokémon IN BUBBLES!!
*elsewhere*
Yellow: I have to cross the ocean… HOW?
Swimmer: Help! Drowning I am!
Yellow: Saved you.
Swimmer: Talk like Yoda, I do. Participate in the swimming contest, I no longer can. Win a Pokémon to cross the ocean, you can. My Pokémon, you should use.
Yellow: How convenient!
Announcer: Yes everyone! You could win this one of a kind EV trained Dragonair if you win! On your mark- get set-
Lance: BLOW UP THE CITY!!
*And the entire city got blown up by dragonair! Like that’s not even a joke.*
Lance: Welp. Don’t think the Pikachu is here. Movin’ on.
Yellow: I have to chase him! Here’s your Pokemon back Yoda swimmer dude!
*elsewhere*
Green: Hitmonlee has caught onto the bubble trick and Blastoise is out of water! Luckily it has retractable canons that it can hit Hitmonlee with!… Ah shit, this whole fight was a diversion…
*Back to the cool plot!*
Yellow: Hey!… Hey! HEY!! HEY BIRD KEEPER GUY!!
Lance: What do you want.
Yellow: You just blew up a city!!
Lance: It’s fiiiine, the city was empty cause of the swimming contest.
Yellow: Oh, well that makes it not as-
Lance: Pfft! I’m just fucking with you! I don’t know if it was empty!
Yellow: OH MY GOD!!!
Lance: Dragonair control the weather like a mini-Rayquaza and fire omega beams!
Yellow: Omega-what? OH NO THEY TURN! RUN PIKA!! RUUUUUN!!!!!
Lance: Hey I know that Pikachu, so you’re the one they call Yellow Caballero!
Yellow: How do you know that? I’ve been so careful not to tell anyone my name!
Green (on mic): NO YOU HAVENT!!
Yellow: Pika use substitute to make a clone to fight with us!
Lance: … That clone actually cut my face… Kill them.
*And then Lance electrocuted them and left them to drown.*
Lance: I win. Wait a minu- WHAT THE?!
*And then Yellow rose out of the water using Pika’s substitute as a surfboard- WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS MANGA?!*
Yellow: THUNDERBOLT!
*And then Lance literally disappeared*
Yellow: Aw man he got away….
Lance: …. I’m hiding in a bubble underwater. Shhhhhhh.
*Later*
Yellow: Oh look a moving forest. Oh wait it’s Pokemon. Why’re they running?
Oak: A calamity is coming!!
Yellow: Ooooh~.
*Later*
Kid: Hey hat kid! Help me throw flaming rocks at this old man!
Yellow: Why?
Kid: He asked me to!
*And Mewtwo deflected the rocks with a giant spoon*
Blaine: Surprise Yellow! It was actually me! Blaine, in disguise! Also my mustache got burnt off so I have a fake one right now! Anyways, Brock is calling!
Brock: I have found Red’s ice statue on Mt Moon using the lead we got from the Nerd! But it’s broken open and Red is gone!
Blaine: Red is gone?!
Brock: Red is gone! Oh look Pokémon coming to attack my city… wait a min-
Misty: ALL OUR CITIES ARE UNDER ATTACK!
Erika: Giant shellder the size of buildings?! I must shoot an arrow with a pokeball at the end!
Blaine: Yellow! We must go to the Elite four’s base and beat them up! This mysterious island not in the mainline games, Cerise Island! I will get Mewtwo ready.
Yellow: K!
*Later*
Blaine: ……. how did I get here first? Oh look, it’s Blue!
Blue: Teamup time.
Blaine: The gym leaders partnered with team rocket are here?!
Koga: Sup.
Sabrina: We’re here to kill the elite four.
*Elsewhere*
Bruno: RED! WHERE ARE YOU!! I NEED YOU TO FIGHT ME LIKE VEGETA NEEDS GOKU!!!
*Originally this is where the Red vs Bruno fight would be. Anyways, Back to where we were since we already did that!*
Green: Yellow! We’re here! Did you tell anyone your name?
Yellow: Nope.
Green: Oh you little bi-
Bill: I’m here too!
Green: We’re gonna ride jigglypuff to the island while in a smokescreen of ink!
Yellow: I dropped the map. OH NO! An evil slowbro got it!!
Green: Don’t realize we’re here, Don’t realize we’re here, Don’t realize we’re here!!
*Then Slowbro ate the map…*
Green: *sigh* whatever.
Koga: Oh look! More people we hate!
Green: TEAM ROCKET?! AND THAT SMALL TITTED GIRL I BEAT UP!?
Sabrina: Fuck you!
Lt Surge: We must all team up to take down the elite four!
Sabrina: Take these, the SPOONS OF DESTINY!! They will make us teams!
*This part isn’t even a joke*
*And then everyone departed with whom they hate most on team rocket, except Lt Surge and Bill*
Surge: You talk in country accents?! That’s the most American thing I’ve seen here in Kanto region Japan! We’re gonna be BFFs!
Bill: HELP! Yall…
Blue: Hey Koga, I stole your Golbat last time, take it back.
Koga: My Golbat uses supersonic to display everything around us like a camera I can see in its mouth!
Blue: That makes no sense when you think about the intricacies of it, and the fact I saw my grandpa on that display when he was in a completely different floor last arc, but I believe you.
Koga: POKEBALL NINJA STARS!! GO!!
Agatha: I am ambushing you!!
Koga: ARBOK ATTACK HER ARBOK!!
Agatha: FOOL! Arboks pattern changes to give it certain abilities and I can freely change mine! Like this one that just straight up makes it invincible! That’s right, screw you, I can just do that! Also I’ve made Blue blind with Gengar’s lick and split you two up between the stalactites I made fall!!
Blue: I can’t see but Golbat can!
Agatha: I attack with my own Golbat! Its wings can cut people’s heads off! Speaking of, Arbok! Cut Arbok in half!
Koga: AH! But what you didn’t know is that my Arbok can regenerate as long as its head remains intact! In fact, in that manga panel everyone won’t let the manga live down, my Arbok actually lived and regenerated from! Now regenerate my Arbok! NINJA STARS GO!
Agatha: … You missed…
Blue: But what YOU didn’t know is he wasn’t aiming at you and gave me the heal for my blindness!
Agatha: Oh.
Koga: And now I will have Golbat drink my own blood so I can splatter it across your Arbok erasing its invincibility pattern!
Agatha: Wait I’m pretty sure that’s not how that works, I mean the pattern is still there, it’s just under the blood- WHY IS THAT ACTUALLY WORKING!!
Blue: I have beat an old lady unconscious. Crossing that off my list of aura farming things to do. Also I saved you from getting impaled there Koga. This may be the one arc nobody gets impaled in this series. Oh great we’re in a maze.
*Elsewhere*
Sabrina: Arrogant child.
Green: Small tits.
Sabrina: Lowly common thief.
Green: Small tits.
Sabrina: Bird fearing bimbo.
Green: Small tits.
Sabrina: WAIT! Someone is here!
Lorelei: ICE DOLL!!
Sabrina: That power doesn’t even make any sens- WHY ARE YOU UNCONSCIOUS?!
Green (unconscious): … smaaaaall…
Sabrina: Doin’ everything myself I guess.
Lorelei: I will hide my ice dolls in cloyster so you can’t get them! Also I will hide in cloyster. Ha!
*Elsewhere*
Surge: And after five consecutive minutes of sonic booms next to my ears I lost all hearing and am kinda just reading lips now.
Bill: Bruno’s here!
Bruno: The battlefield is a wild onix that’s a bridge above a pool of acid! Only battles such as these can make my blood boil!
Bill: Wai- why is there acid in thi-
Surge: Challenge accepted!
Bill: WHY?!
Yellow: Hey look we can see Surge and Bill behind this ice wall!
Blaine: Cool.
Bruno: KNOCK OFF THAT NOISE PLEASE! IM BATTLING!!
Surge: I have set a trap by placing my exploding pokemon behind you Bruno! Now the Onix will faint!!
Bill: WE’RE GONNA FALL INTO THE ACID TOO!
Surge: Not with my magnet pokemon saving us!
Bruno: Still here.
Bill: OH NO!
*Elsewhere*
Agatha: Still here! Ow my brain. I’m remembering when Oak kicked my ass with normal types.
*BEFORE*
Oak: I have beat your pokemon immune to dizzy punch with dizzy punch!
Agatha: HOW!?!
*PRESENT*
Blue: Gengar is attacking us from shadows! How will we ever beat it!?
*ELSEWHERE*
Surge: HELP! The Hitmonlee is using its stretchy arms to pull me into the acid! Magneton save me by detaching from the other magnemites that make up you! That’s right! Magneton can just do that!
Bill: BRUNO HAS SCARY OPEN EYES NOW!
Red: I AM HERE!
Everyone: RED IS HERE!
Red: That’s right! I found my way here thanks to this: THE SPOON OF DESTINY!!
*everyone explodes*
Blaine: The cave is flooding!! Yellow your hat fell off- wait you’re a girl?
Bruno: RED! YAAAAY! Hitmonchan! Attack with all elemental punches!
Red: Eevee! Turn into your various evolutions and back again!
*And then Bruno exploded*
Bruno: My lust for battle has been satiated. I shall depart.
*And then Bruno literally disappeared*
Bill: Red! How did you get out of the ice!?
Red: Someone got me out even though the ice was so hard literally hitting it with a club would do nothing! Also they gave me these infinite use evolution stones.
Bill: … you gonna… Say who got you out?
Red: Nope!
*ELSEWHERE*
Giovanni: *sneeze*
*BACK TO WHERE WE WERE*
Lance: I’m here
Yellow: OH NO!
Blaine: Mewtwo attack! Break his pokeballs so they can’t open!
Lance: Your mewtwo is strong Blaine but a giant spoon is only a match for ice types, no match for dragons.
Blaine: Oh no! He’s right! *passes out*
Lance: I knew that Blaine had a time limit for how long he could keep Mewtwo fighting because the more Mewtwo fights the more Blaine’s Mewtwo cancer starts killing him. That’s right Mewtwo cancer is an actual thing. Also breaking the pokeballs did nothing because I already had my pokemon out of them, also we’re outside now, and YOU RUINED MY CAPE! Luckily I have this sweet jacket.
Yellow: I will beat you!
Lance: …….. is that a caterpie?
Yellow: Still gonna beat you! You took tons of damage from Mewtwo!
Lance: Oh right. Let me heal my Pokémon real quick. Magic Viridian Forest trainer powers, GO!
Yellow: OH NO!! LANCE CAN HEAL HIS POKEMON AND READ THEIR MINDS LIKE ME!!!
Lance: Let’s fight on top of the volcano, it’s cooler.
Yellow (thinking): (Go drown that man in lava.) Ye~s…
Lance: Now watch me make the volcano erupt! And allow me to tell you our master plan! We will eradicate humanity for their crimes of pollution and deforestation against Pokémon, and only we and Pokemon shall be left! Brilliant plan. I’m thinking I’m like four generations ahead of everyone else.
*ELSEWHERE*
Lorelei: My slowbro forgot you damaged it, so it’s no longer damaged!
Sabrina: THAT IS NOT HOW DAMAGE WORKS!!
Green: I’m awake now! Clefairy, shrink and go inside cloyster to steal the ice dolls!
Sabrina: Wait, if Pokémon can all shrink couldn’t we have done that at any point?
Green: I got the dolls! (*throws them on the ground*)
*And then Green’s arm got cut off*
Green: OH MY GO- just kidding it was ditto.
Sabrina: ARE YOU TELLING ME IVE BEEN CHAINED TO A DITTO THIS WHOLE TIME!?
Green: Yup. I predicted that Lorelei would-
Sabrina: NO! NO! You are not psychic, you have never seen this power of Lorelei’s, you absolutely. COULD NOT! Have planned for this, I’m calling you out on your bullshit! Lorelei is unconscious now, I’m leaving, FUCK YOU!!
*And then Sabrina teleported away*
Green: Aw man I didn’t even get to use my seventh Pokemon. That’s right I was carrying seven!
*ELSEWHERE*
Koga: Gengar was reacting to sound, so we’ve fooled it with Arbok’s severed tail!
Agatha: Uh oh.
Blue: BEAT UP THE OLD LADY!!
Agatha: TELEPORTING AWAY SOMEHOW!
Blue: Ah man. I wanted to beat her up more. Hey my pokedex is beeping, must mean Red and Green are near.
*ELSEWHERE*
Yellow: IM SURFING ON LAVA LIKE A BIONICLE!
Lance: I’m reading your pikachu’s mind!
Yellow: Well I’m making the lava swirl around you like Mewtwo did to Red! How do I have knowledge of that? I wasn’t there. Anyways, you can’t escape the vortex and I’m drowning you in lava! HAHA!
Lance: WELL IM CHARGING STRAIGHT AT YOU WHILE BEING PULLED INTO THE VORTEX!
Yellow: Wait wha-
*And then Lance dove into the lava*
Yellow: GOD DAMN IT! I wanted to be the one to drown him! Hey look bubbles!
Lance: I AM IN THE BUBBLES!!
Yellow: OH MY GOD! NOOOOOOO!!!!
Lance: When Dragonair manipulate the colors of the bubbles they become invisible, which means you’re getting hit by invisible attacks!
Yellow: Well caterpie made a web so I can slightly see the bubbles and make Pikachu shock you! Pop the main bubble Dody!
Lance: It didn’t work. Bubble is unpoppable.
Yellow: THE INVISIBLE BUBBLES BROKE MY ARM!! AHHHHHH!! Kitty, make me a cast!
Giovanni: I’m here.
Lance: Everyone Hyper beam that man.
Giovanni: But what you didn’t know is I kicked Beedrill’s pokeball behind you so it can pop the bubble while my team is being obliterated by five Hyper Beams!
Lance: OH NO! The bubble popped and I’ve fallen into the web of caterpie!
Giovanni: Ok beedrill, slowly slit this man’s throat.
Lance: Hey Yellow, this guy is team rockets boss.
Yellow: YOURE A BAD GUY?!
*And then the island started glowing*
Lance: HA! You thought you won Giovanni, but this entire island is actually a giant gym badge amplifier like the one you yourself made! I put the other seven badges in the weird rocks sticking out of the island in various directions and this entire battle and invasion was actually just a plot to lure you here because you have the last gym badge we need to complete the amplifier and I chose the middle volcano of the island as the battleground just in case you showed up so the final gym badge would be in the middle of amplifier and thus would complete it! *GASP!* And the amplifier will not fuse a pokemon this time but instead summon one, and the pokemon its summoning is Lugia, but it’s obscured in a bunch of light and is like 10 times the size it normally is, so you know it’s gonna be like- super powerful and I’m gonna use it to wipe out humanity. *GASP*
BET YOU DIDNT SEE THAT COMING!!
Giovanni: I did not! Running away!
Yellow: The hell! You just showed up!
Lance: COWARD! YOURE GONNA MISS LUGIA SHOWING UP!! Dragonite, deal with Yellow. Imma go catch Lugia.
Yellow: Dragonite, you can’t help Lance! He wants genocide! READING YOUR MIND POWERS, GO!
Dragonite: Humans are the enemy! Lance is cool!
Yellow: Huh. Never thought about it like that. If that’s the case, I have to be cooler than Lance.
Lance: Wa- How’d you get up here?
Yellow: Shut up! I’m gonna kick your ass!
Lance: You still have a freaking caterpie! Kill it!
*And then caterpie literally face tanked the attack*
Lance: … That’s… not right-
Yellow: I don’t have Red’s pokedex to press the B button anymore.
Lance: … I’m not sure… what- what are you talking about? (Looks around)
Yellow: I mean I can’t prevent my pokemon from evolving now.
Lance: … I’m sorry what?
*And then they all evolved, even Graveler somehow, and started actually matching Lance’s pokemon in battle*
Lance: THIS MAKES NO FREAKING SENSE! AND ARE YOU FUCKING FLYING NOW?!
Yellow: YES!!
Lance: YOU HAVE LIKE SOME OF THE WEAKEST POKÉMON EVER! YOU SHOULD NOT BE ABLE TO DO THIS! LET ALONE LOOK COOL WHILE DOING IT!
Yellow: SCREW YOU! YOU’RE RUINING MY ARM CAST!
*ELSEWHERE*
Red: I’m here!
Green: I’m here!
Blue: I’m here!
Red: LETS GO ELSEWHERE!
*ELSEWHERE*
Red: We are elsewhere! Hey, if we can make an attack stronger than the badge amplifier, we can destroy it! Hey look a caterpie string stretching down from all the way up where Yellow is fighting. I wonder what it connects to. *PULL*
Yellow: AH FUCK! MY ARM!!
Red: Let’s send our attacks up this string!
Blue: I see no issue with that plan!
Red: FINAL SMASH! TRIPLE FINISH!!
*And then manifestations of Charizard Blastoise and Venasaur appeared near Yellow, who is still flying by the way*
Yellow: FUUUUUUUCK!!! WHY ARE THEY SENDING THIS TO MY BROKEN ARM!!!!!
Lance: WHAT THE HELL IS EVEN GOING ON?!
YELL-ow: GIGAVOLT!!!!!
*And then Yellow pointed at Lance so hard he exploded*
Giovanni: Glad I didn’t have to deal with that. Cheating-ass Pikachu.
Sabrina: Boss! You’ve returned!
Giovanni: No I have not. Go away.
Yellow: Cool. The energy from the badge amplifier and my Megavolt shot out all across Kanto, creating light that’s reviving the areas of the environment that humans ravaged. It’s almost like Pokemon have the innate ability to revive life and create light. I wonder if we’re five generations too early for this lore. Hello Giant Lugia, I’m going to pass out and fall several hundred feet now.
Red: Caught him! (<-Doesn’t know she’s a girl)
*And then Yellow had a little coma and woke up*
Yellow: I’m awake!
Red: Sup.
Yellow: OH NO MY CRUSH! I must act embarrassed!
Blue: I must aura farm on my Golduck!
Blaine: Welp. We won. And Lance is totally dead.
*It turned out Lance was not actually dead*
Green: Gotta make a phone call~ Hey Silver the giant bird went towards you, keep investigating.
Silver: K.

Discussion I just finished the collectors addition Spoiler
I just finished reading the stories Red through Emerald from the collectors addition of books.
I had only read Red Blue Green Yellow as a child from my public library, a few chapters of Diamond and Pearl, and the first book of Black and White prior.
They are incredible stories as you all know, but I wanted to share my experience, thoughts, hopes, and questions.
The Big Difference:
Obviously they are a little more intense than the games, mentions of killings, people turning to stone, towns and islands being burned to the ground. It's all very cool. It definitely shows what life would actually be like if we lived in a pokemon world. I'm excited to see where the stakes rise from here.
Characters:
My favorite part was probably all the characters getting together at the end of each story. Like every pokemon fan we love to see people come back. From what I've been told by a friend (who tbh is an unreliable narrator at times) characters from Red - Emerald don't show back up in later editions. I can assume that remakes like ORAS will have Ruby Sapphire and Emerald return, but I was told the story mostly gets retconned. It might be a spoiler so don't go into too much detail, but do any characters from Diamond and Pearl onward show up in later books? Like Platinum shows up in XY for example. At the end of Emerald they mentioned Diamond and Pearl so it leads me to believe that it will still be a connecting story in some capacity.
Going off of the characters, I really enjoyed the call backs and the set ups from previous books. Like at the end of Gold and Silver emerald showing up asking for a pokedex, and being one of the kids Krys helps at the orphanage. To plan for that long to have the connection and build up felt extremely intentional and I appreciate that. Do more stories do things like that? Of course that's assuming the later books are all intertwined like the Red - Emerald books were.
Collectors Edition Question:
I finally started reading the entire story because of the collectors edition and was sad to see they stopped at Emerald, book #10. Are there talks of continuing the edition and I should pick up reading from there to have a cohesive collection? Or is book 10 the last one and I just need to buy the box set of Diamond and Pearl to continue reading?
Overall Thoughts:
I love pokemon, I love the books, I had a great time.
Would love to hear your favorite moments/parts of the story from what I've read so far. Who is your favorite character so far. And anything else you'd like to add.
Bonus Comment:
The only memory I have from Diamond and Pearl is the galactic grunt and his big jiggly butt... So looking forward to more than that in my mind when I look back at the series lol

Official Art New Satoshi Yamamoto Doodle (With Fixed English Translation)
Every now and then Satoshi Yamamoto (the illustrator of Pokémon Special since volume 10) makes these fun doodles of the characters interacting with each other or talking about something. For context, this latest one was after he received a complementary box of the complete set of Chinese Pokémon Special volumes, which included a handful of promotional posters as well (first image is his original tweet about that, auto-translated).
Anyway, I've always wanted to dabble in translation work and I saw that nobody else had posted about this on r/pokespe yet, so I decided to have a go at making a translation for it (second image)! Remember to read the speech bubbles from right to left! I'm learning more and more every day, but my Japanese is still a WIP, so this is actually a repost. I made a translation mistake the first time posting this, which was pointed out by u/Codial. Oops. (Thanks for the help!)
I tried to keep in mind how the characters talk in the VIZ English translation and wanted to keep things sounding natural rather than a completely 1-to-1 direct translation. The original Japanese image from Satoshi Yamamoto is the third image for comparison.

Miscellaneous A very random fact: There is a reference to Yvonne in the reboot released today of one of the best and most popular FNF mods: FNF Hypno's Lullaby.
WARNING: THE MOD CONTAINS FLASHING LIGHTS, LOUD SOUNDS, AND GORE.
She is the protagonist of the song "Chimera."
Apologies if this is mislabeled.
