Pokémon Adventures

Pokémon Adventures (Japanese: ポケットモンスター SPECIAL, Hepburn: Poketto Monsutā Supesharu, lit. Pocket Monsters Special, commonly Pokespe (ポケスペ / ポケSP) for short) is a Japanese manga series based on the Pokémon media franchise. The series is written by Hidenori Kusaka. Mato was the illustrator for the first nine volumes. When Mato became ill and was unable to continue illustrating the series, Satoshi Yamamoto took over as the illustrator and still continues as the series' artist.

Satoshi Tajiri, the creator of Pokémon media franchise, once stated that the series is closest to how he imagined the universe of Pokémon to be.

Pokémon Adventures is translated into English in North America by Viz Media. As of May 2024, 63 volumes have been released, along with mini-volumes collecting arcs from "Black and White" onwards. In Southeast Asia, Singapore publisher Chuang Yi was translating Pokémon Adventures into English, and continued to translate new volumes up to volume 41. The company, however, entered voluntary liquidation in early 2014 and translation stopped. Shogakukan Asia now handles the series in Singapore.
