    Default Pokemon adventures rare?

    Hey everyone I have a question would you consider pokemon adventures the manga quite rare or not?

    I think they have been discontinued in Australia but in Malaysia they have the entire series from the very first to the end of diamond and pearl series which I ought 1-8 and 16,21 and 29

    So what do you think?

    No, you can just easily buy them on Amazon and they are still in print.

    I have to disagree. Yes you can buy them but...... How about a translation on each country with each language. In here it hasn't been published anymore. I know this is sounded quite not important but for some like me it is.

    At the Barnes and Noble in one of my local shopping malls, there is like half a wall of them. I never have money to buy them so I just read them at the store.

    See, I have to hunt to find nearly any kid's manga (cuz that's what it is, accept it) at my BN... So for me, the library is my friend. So maybe "Yes" for me.

    Then again, I live in the rural parts of the US, so maybe if I went to OKC...

    Guess it depends on the region. I have seen the manga when I go to the bookstore (which isn't often anymore), but they tend to be the later volumes, I've noticed. I guess you can say the "comic book" version is rare, since I haven't seen those around in years, and we lost our two copies in the move... or prior to the move. Can't remember anymore.

    But Amazon should still have a lot of them in stock. It's convenient like that.

    My local B&N has all of the 2nd edition volumes except for volume 4 and Black and White volume 5 and The Best of Pokémon Adventures: Yellow. It probably depends on where you live. I'm dissappointed that they din't even have ebooks available.
    I grew up with Pokémon. And I cherish and love it. I watched every episode from the very first and I've read all of viz's pokespe translations out so far. And i first played the games starting from Pokémon Sapphire. And my favorite anime characters are Ash's female traveling companions and my favorite Pokespe characters are Sapphire and Platinum.

    The only time I've ever seen them being sold in store is in a bookstore 10 years ago.

    I know it isn't rare. But when I search for it's native language in my region version, it is.

    At my Barnes and Noble they have nearly every volume so far except volumes 1, 4, and Black and White volume 5. Luckily I only dont have two of the above...

    For Barnes and Noble you have to go to the kids or young adult section for them, not the manga section. It should be near the Zelda manga and Sonic comics.

    Well I was able to find a few of them in bookstores, but for most of them I had to order off of Amazon and eBay. So I guess they're somewhat rare in bookstores nowadays.

    I was actually just at the Barnes and Nobles near my house, they had a few random volumes of Pokemon Adventures: Diamond & Pearl. But not many. Yeah, they can be a little rare in bookstores depending on where you live. But that's what the Internets for. Sure you can find the volumes you want on Amazon.
