What is the battling like in the manga? i have read the summs. and i was looking at teh pics on netkun. and they look like they put the balls on the ground? and in the summaries it said they kept raising to their feet. and how many pokemon do they need to KO? in the league competition it was very confusing because they only ko'd one pokemon and they won...i'm confused please help me.







(ps: im sorry for making 2 new threads in a row)

What about online? You can order it virtually anywhere like Amazon.com, Viz.com or even on Ebay.

Plus, there is the 'Where can I buy the manga?' sticky in this section.

Very good question. I have always wondered about that. But about the time where they released their balls on the ground...When they hit the ground and the pokemon emerged it was the beginning of the battle...just something fancy...but the other, im also confused about.

I have Issues 3, which contains the Pokemon League, so i'll explain it. There seems to be no rules against more then 1 Pokemon, but using more then 1 is difficult, so they mostly use 1 at a time. Targetting trainers is a common tactic, and trainers can work with their Pokemon. Certain trainers like Gold use a Billard Cue, to let his Pokemon appear at a certain point for a location advantage. Bruno uses his Nunchaku the same way. Most of the time, they just throw it, and a puff of smoke appears. BAM POKEMON!

Go buy it from PokePark. I got my manga there. =)

Battling in the Pokemon Special manga is all-out combat, with pokemon as the weapons. Pokemon and their trainers are both legitimate targets. In competition (such as the League), a battle is over when one trainer admits defeat or either they or all their pokemon are unable to continue.

The manga fight is the most amazing Pokemon fights i have ever seen. With good use of the environment as well as the special abilities of Pokemon. It's not all rainbow kittens like in the anime, the pokemons do suffer damage and some of them even get cut in half...

In conclusion, go read the damn manga.

Oh yeah. I remenber this one time Red and Blue(aka Green) was running form a Arbok and Blue's Chermeleon cut the poor Arbok in half! But what I don't understand was why Koga was on Team Rocket, and why they didn't do the whole Marhawk Ghost thing like in the Games.

Anyway, I wish VIZ would start releseing the Pokemon Adventure Manga again. And do the G/S/C series and R/S/E series. Judging by what I read hear about the Manga, it sounds alot cooler than the Anime. The Manga also follows the Games more than the Anime, but even then the Manga does change some stuff, but it does sound interesting.

If VIZ doesn't relese it no more, then I guess I try to find a way to get it.

from the summs it is better than the manga. and i hope they release english gsc and rse and frlg. but i geuss i could just get japanese versions and geuss to what they're saying but that would be aggravating. okay i get it now kinda. but what was up with the pokeballs on the ground? i saw jasmin do it when she faced brock on netkun, and i think they said that giovanni and red did it when he faced him.

In conclusion, go read the damn manga.

Umm not really sure why Jasmine did that though. I think its for coolness or for chosing her pokes wisely. But Giovanni and Red did it to test their skills. Since they wont know which poke is in which ball and where they are. A true test of skills if you ask me.
