The Pokémon Fan Manga that Broke Me

[@arikendo]

Before you comment that Blue and Green are mixed up THEY ARE NOT! This is a Japanese Fan Manga, they call him Green over there because Red and Green were the first Pokemon games in Japan (not Red and Blue like in America). Also I forgot what songs I used in this video ;_; If you recognize the songs I used please comment below, I want to add them to the description

[@AstronautToilet]

The song you used for the Eevee's backstory was "Unwavering Emotion". While reading the manga, the song complements the manga's scenes so well. Thanks for the manga recommendation.

[@arikendo]

@@AstronautToilet Thanks!

[@HExtraordinaire]

Green is the better name anyway

[@nyx_ender]

One of the songs is the Sea Mauville music

[@arikendo]

@@nyx_ender THANK YOU SO MUCH I HAD THIS SONG ON THE TIP OF MY TONGUE

[@blueace9797]

Seeing Blue's trauma of unable to touch Pokémon is like the anime's version of Lillie's trauma done much better, while Lillie was scarred and frightened by the past of what happened, Blue gotten hurt by one, and its her issue growing up

[@arikendo]

I never made that connection, that's interesting

[@blueace9797]

@arikendo the more you know 🌈 and yeah I guess not much people remember Lillie's fear of not being able to touch pokemon from the anime

[@guilherme_32333]

yea, ppl forget that she used to think pokemons are scary creatures.

[@mightza3781]

It's why Festival of Champions works.The games and anime need to meet deadlines to sell merchandise so a lot of interesting concepts come out half baked. Festival of Champions is a labour of love that takes it time and condenses and expands on everything that worked in other media. Ash versus Gary was the original rivalry, Ash versus Paul was a refinement giving them opposing ideals, then comes Festival of Champions to take this concept even further with the trio of Red, Blue and Green.

[@PetitTasdeBoue]

Everyone forgot that kid in the Deoxys movie ? :(

[@commonviewer2488]

Reticate's will is inherited both through Growlithe and Eevee. They each develop in memory of their lost friend. The Pokémon are individually their own characters, it's amazing

[@arikendo]

If we get another chapter I would be sooo hyped to see the Green and Blue fight you already know it's going to be amazing

[@dylanzlol7293]

​@@arikendowhat has me skeptical of how the green vs blue fight will go is that, given how red vs green (aka gary) is the most popular fight, blue (aka the actual green) is gonna lose against gary oak.

[@dylanzlol7293]

@@Uri433 hm, yeah. By the way, blue's eevee is an espeon, right? Well, in pokemon gold, red's team has an espeon, meaning that blue is going to gift it to red, possibly as a last resort method for them to convince green.

[@hedgehogpower194]

You need to be kidding me honestly Pokemon Special has love and doesn't need to be hella dark or pretensious like this manga to put the readers in constant fear or nervous

[@iancharles1571]

The creators if this manga are obviously not constrained by "kid friendliness" or out to sell millions of toys/cards/games etc. Wheras the official works have been utterly consumed by those things, there is true love for the series itself here. The lack of the "corporate touch" really makes all the difference!

[@EvenFlow391]

I'm so glad I stumbled on this video. The whirlwind of emotions I felt throughout the story was something that I haven't felt in a hot minute, and no official Pokemon story has made me feel this way. I'm definitely hoping we get a next chapter soon!

[@arikendo]

Yes me too! I've re-read a few times and it still manages to hit me in the feels everytime

[@SorceressRose]

This is honestly a really good manga. It has so much emotional depth that it achieved! But not only that, the characters are so fleshed out and it just feels like the ultimate versions of them. But I'll just throw it out there, the character cameos are something else. We got Young Skyla, Young Gold, Young Volkner, Young Flint, Jessie & James, Misty's sister Daisy, Mr. Goodshow, etc like an insane amount of cameos from characters from the anime and games just merged into one, it just feels like the ultimate Pokemon experience, because Pokemon fans can see so many easter eggs and references they just put in there, because their are a ton, like I didn't expect them to reference Legends Arceus either. I really glad it didn't shy away from mature themes either like Pokemon abuse, blood, murder, etc. It's like an really mature experience for Pokemon and having a storyline being featured around Green's Radicate is something else, like how it effects him and his team. It just such great storytelling, also the way the manga artist was able to draw Pokemon, because I was so captivated with Pikachu's expressions and emotions, because they're so good in the beginning chapters. This is such a good recommendation for any adult Pokemon fan, because it's got it all.

[@forkgodsdescendant2503]

How this manga handled the Cubone story blows completely blows Pokemon Origins out of the water. Amazing presentation of how Team Rocket are all vile criminals that use very dangerous underhanded tactics instead of just fodder for the main characters to beat up.

[@edmundliankalang5925]

It's like the novel about cats or kids turning into animals. The cover looks goofy but the book is about war crimes and stuff.

[@LuklioN44]

Don't forget it's portrayal of grief and mental health like depression. This fan manga done a nice job portraying different layers of grief and how it effects different people, both trainers and pokemon alike. Such a phenomenal manga despite being fan-made 😢

[@MASTER-iy7mv]

How can I search it on chrome?? Tell me please 😢

[@davidpotts7116]

This was the kind of mature, grounded story I tried over and over again to write when I was younger and more avid about pokemon than I am now. It's awesome to see how much fans still care about the games, enough to make a masterwork story like this complete with incredible artwork. We all may grow older, but it's all the more comforting knowing that the thing we all fantasized about as kids is now in the hands of people like the author of this doujin. You can clearly see they have the same youthful passion towards these games as the day they discovered it.

[@cajapeydoesthings]

I fucking love this fan manga! Espeon's and Karen's stories. And that with scene with Red and his pokemon, Those scenes rewrote the chemistry of my brain!

[@arikendo]

Oh my god Karen and greens fight was pure perfection

[@tristancummings5925]

Houndoom and Karen's stories were honestly to good some of the best shit I've read in general this year. Karen's battle to prove to the world that Dark types aren't what they seem will always stick with me!

[@josephwilliams2406]

I love how this makes me think back to the special manga and how Red caught Pikachu back when it was going wild in pewter city

[@dylanzlol7293]

i really like how this fanmanga draws pikachu's eyes, and i love the fact that they show his pupils, makes him seem more badass. Itd be cool if pikachu was drawn with those eyes more often by other people

[@WaterDrinker197]

I WISH THERE WAS MORE CHAPTERS

[@jaywhy7150]

This manga is both mature and not edgy to the point of it being a bad fanfic

[@Star-vw2qf]

I love this fan comic it explores Blue’s grief Green’s childhood trauma and Red’s ambition it’s so great and action packed and it really shows the rivalry between Red and Blue and how Green feels conflicted about her friends fighting

[@ashmander3465]

Umm green is the rival

[@Star-vw2qf]

Green is green in the manga green is female and in the manga blue is male so manga translation error got blue and green mixed up so please don’t make me explain myself to you

[@SorceressRose]

@@Star-vw2qf They're both technically correct thou. Both characters got both names, just because Japan got Red/Green and we got Red/Blue, then it's muddied more with Fire Red/Leaf Green. But in this manga, you're correct, Blue is named Green to correspond with Japan's Red/Green and Leaf is named Blue.

[@Dragonballmaster-n1g]

This is exactly how most people would treat pokemons if they were real🥲

[@angelgon06]

@@SorceressRose Isn’t the only reason at least by the game that blue is green because that’s what the player likely chose and depending on the game that you got? Like if you got Pokémon green One of the names that would be there possibly being green and then two others? The manga kind of shows who’s actually who.

[@7ANKOUCH]

This is one of the best mangas ive read and its LITERALLY CRIMINALLY ILLEGAL we did not hear or see anything from the author since corona started 😥😭 the author used to only publish new chapters on something like a japaneese commic con . The fight betwwen Arcanine and Houndoom was FIRE

[@JadeElfen]

I have known this manga for some time. I love it and downright idolize Karen and Green's fight. They showed his trauma after losing his Pokemon very well. The interesting thing is his Arcanine and his behavior. Green took the emotion out of the fight and the pokemon. Arcanine, on the other hand, seems to still have some emotion. It seems to me that at some point he will stop listening to the trainer and rebel. Karen also told him: You may eventually not hear the voices of the pokemons. After the last chapter, I am terribly excited about the fight between Green and Blue. It seems to me that it will be more of a battle of ideas and a display of their own experiences and beliefs. One thing is certain. It will be epic.

[@dylanzlol7293]

I feel like if gary loses growlithe, he'll switch to heracross or tyranitar (in pokemon firered, gary postgame's team includes these two pokemons), and, another curious thing, in firered, if you chose bulbasaur, then in indigo plateau, gary replaces arcanine with exeggutor, which means that if arcanine ever abandons gary, the comic could reference his "red-chose-bulbasaur" team by giving exeggutor to gary so that he replaces arcanine

[@toekneemart5597]

​@@dylanzlol7293he already has an exeggutor on his team though

[@dylanzlol7293]

After reading the comic up until the last part that was translated, i'll be honest, this story actually managed to touch my heart, especially after seeing eevee's dream (my favorite pokemon btw), i feel like i strengthened my sense of empathy tbh.

[@TheSlyRomano]

I read the chapter where he got Pikachu and I'll be real I cried

[@masterreece1098]

This is literally the most realistic pokemon manga ive ever seen, even more realistic than the official manga is allowed to get, and that's what i love about it,they're not making it constantly lucky and magical like the anime, they actually show the struggles of life

[@avendele3266]

I'd seen this floating around doujin sites before but never knew what it was, super excited to get the chance to read it in English it looks amazing!

[@Soul.Resonant]

@diavolojaegar4363Wait, you were looking for Pokémon doujins?

[@Mnemoniforma9.00]

Holy shit, this doujin is really fucking good! I mean, it has so much of the qualities that really drew me to Gen I and even manages to tap into Creatures Inc.'s Earthbound roots as Ape Inc. I can't help but superimpose Ninten, Anna and Lloyd onto the panels of Red Blue and Green in my mind. THIS is how I remember Pokemon on my childhood GBC!

[@MaxEdrox]

So are we going to ignore the fact that Pichu evolved without being exposed to real friendship? 😶 After all, the trainer was frustrated so that must leaded to a lot of abuse before 😕

[@TylerBrown-sw4ss]

The Cubone section with his Mama broke me, Beautiful manga

[@A_Hylian_Not_An_Elf]

I like that it becomes an Espeon. One: because I like more generation of pokemon being in old regions where they didn’t exist yet. Two: It reminds me of starting anew in a way. Like the saying “a dawn of a new day”. Quick question though, which pokemon knocked Raticate out? I’m curious about that.

[@arikendo]

Strongly recommend you read the manga for yourself but spoilers below.. Green takes on Team Rocket by himself and ends up in a dire situation. His Raticate sacrifices himself to let him and the rest of his party escape, its a really sad panel

[@A_Hylian_Not_An_Elf]

@@arikendo Ohh, that’s sad 😢 But hey, that adds another reason. Since poison types are weak to psychic types. And yeah, I’ll definitely try to read it sometime.

[@shay9807]

@@A_Hylian_Not_An_Elfactually, this is directly referenced in the manga Where Eevee evolved into “what she wanted to be back then”, because if she had been a Psychic-type she could have defeated team Rocket without Raticate needing to get poisoned, or used her powers to sense it and get him help before it was too late

[@OmegaJX]

Main Series Pokemon has never made me emotional, i've only ever gotten emotional while playing Mystery Dungeon EoS, the fact that this manga made me cry several goddamn times really speaks to the absolute masterpiece in storytelling it is.

[@nanziniannightmare4959]

Genuinely so glad this video popped up in my recommended section. Where I expected something like a short summary of the manga (as that's what I've been watching a lot lately) I instead got a recommendation to one of the most heartfelt, well written, and incredibly loving stories I've ever read about Pokemon... ever. It hits hard! "But you've obtained strength by standing up despite being broken." Like damn son, I've been writing Pokemon fanworks for nearly a decade and I still can't make lines that slap you with relatability like that! The only problem is that there's not more of it!

[@arikendo]

wasn't that also the manga that was a little more... mature?? LMAO

[@actionman9451]

That’s the problem people think Pokémon is just for kids but even in the anime you see scenes of trainers abusing their Pokémon before abandoning them, what’s worse is that Pokémon like Charmander and Gengar risk or waste their lives waiting for that trainer to come back. Even when they do they haven’t learned anything. Then you had Paul and his abused Chimchar. It just goes on the manga’s have a lot of it too.

[@jasonMT3011]

This is more adult orientated, I also wanted to make such a pokemon manga. I can draw manga but I'm stuck between school life, freelancing and other projects. When I make small drawings to keep my skill on okay level. I think should I make a doujin, doujinshi or an original manga. I've some stories for them all. For example I wanted to make a pokemon villain manga where as the villain slowly gets to a misunderstood antihero who is perceived as a hero in the end. I don't going to throw the whole concept in here. But yeah. Also who Pikachu is ash his main. His main is a Gengar.

Since Raticate’s death had to do with a Pokémon battle, if Pokémon were real, I wouldn’t battle them out of fear for their safety and well-being.

[@Dismiazs]

I think it's similar to irl fight. As long as both sides follow the rules and respect each other, risk could be minimized. Ratata seems to be a pretty special case. As it's stated that he got high dosage of poison. Not only that, he seems to still be battling through out the cave. Which kinda makes sense that ratata went well ahead 'faint'. With that being said, i probably would be scared to actually battle if pokemon is real. I don't want to have a giant wall of water to hit me.
