Look at that little blob
Bra has seen some shit
This is that real pokemon shit. Blood sweat and tears, none of that faux Disney modern nintendo bs.
The Pokemon manga designs are wild. Red's Clefairy is my favorite
ShowThe Electric Tale of Pikachu is GOAT IMO and I wish the series had continued.
Cover of volume 2:
ShowAsh's battle with Misty for the Water Badge:
ShowAn Ivysaur takes Ash's Pikachu and Bulbasaur on a tour of a town guarded by an ancient Venasaur spirit. Bulbasaur doesn't think the spirit is real:
ShowAsh loses control of his Charizard in the Indigo finals and forfeits the match so the other Charizard isn't harmed any further:
ShowShowShowSeries only ran for something like 4 or 5 volumes in 1997 to 1999ish, coinciding with the anime's release in North America.
As a kid I thought nothing of it but as an adult a lot of the stuff in Pokémon is sus lol. The James inflatable breasts cut from the American version of the show was funny but they shouldn't have Ash and Brock always trying to spy on Misty in the bath.
