4.2/5. In this volume, the characters of Red, Blue, and Green continue their battle against a revived Team Rocket whom plan to use Deoxys for an unknown plan...and it is great! I love the little nods to the Hoenn region which make me miss Ruby and Sapphire!

There are some characters who have gone some growths that I both love and hate. I love what they did to Red; he is more human and actually devastated at his loss in this volume. I also love how they weaved Mewtwo back into the story and made him more like his anime counterpart. I LOVE Lorelei's growth from an evil villainous in the Yellow chapter to this one where she becomes a hero dedicated to her home. I however do not like the fact that she is not as strong as she was back then. It might be because she was more ruthless before and willing to kill (ex. Red, Yellow, Bill, Green and Sabrina), but she easily lost to Sird. Also, I love Green's new redesign which makes her look more like an anime heroine, but she is also much more weaker. She is not as sneaky, daring and headstrong as she used to be (Blue even called her obnoxious several times before) but now her character is more "girly" yet still willing to jump into battle, so I can't complain there.

Overall, Pokemon-Go had me pumped up to get back into reading this series and it does not disappoint. If you are a fan of Pokemon or ever were this is so good (or at least highly entertaining).

Aw, Red is so downhearted from his defeat and trying to find purpose for himself when his friends have such strong convictions to save their family. That was very stirring. I don't really remember Blue being so aggressive before, though. Aloof, yes, but he didn't grab at people. I guess he was freaking out about his grandpa or something. Or maybe he's got the puberty. Who knows?

I want Mewtwo to carry me in the spoon.

The Unown are so creepy with all those eyes.

Yay! Yellow's back! And, gasp, what's the connection between Silver and Giovanni? Just kidding, it's obvious. Even so, it's a compelling part of the story.

Me esta gustando bastante para donde estan llevando esta saga. Parece una evolución natural de los personajes a sus anteriores apariciones en el manga. Aunque no estoy tan seguro de como estan usando al equipo rocket como villano. Las motivaciones de Giovanni no me parece que tengan tanto sentido. Pero logran ser imponentes igualmente.

I'm enjoying seeing Blue, Red, and Green again. It's also cool to see the Kanto pokemon featured again. It brings back nostalgia for playing Firered and Leafgreen. I like how the Sevii islands are featured and I'm looking forward to how Silver and Giovanni's relationship develops.

Starting to flag a little because I've forgotten the details of the original RBY chapters... but still a good read!

Kusaka did not hold back with the violence and angst and it shows.

[Nick · Rating 4 out of 5]

It's cool to see Red and Blue return in this volume. The plot with Deoxys is very creepy and done well.

4.25 stars
The plot twist about Giovanni's kid is insane even though this is only the Second Pokemon Manga I read.

[Flowergirl · Rating 5 out of 5]

Great book. It is great going back to see some of the old characters again. I just fall in love with every book.

[Chris Young · Rating 5 out of 5]

It is a very good book and surprisingly team rocket wants to capture Red Blue and Green.
