Editions and box sets

Check the named run as well as the book number; these collections can cover different parts of the story. Each edition has a page listing every book in it, with its ISBN and release date.

Which edition to buy

This catalog covers the ten Pokémon Adventures Collector’s Edition paperbacks, containing original Vols. 1–29. Start with Collector’s 1 for that run and check the original-volume range when switching from singles. Collector’s 10 contains only 28–29. These books are not a complete catalog of all Pokémon manga or later Adventures titles; no television-to-manga handoff is recorded. Buying these alongside their collected singles repeats the same story material.
