History Manga / PokemonGoldenBoys

* FaceFault: Everyone, all the time.

->''"There are trainers who work hard everyday for Pokémon championships. These talented boys and girls... They are known as... The [[TitleDrop Golden Boys]]!"''

A three volume manga based on ''Franchise/{{Pokemon}} [[VideoGame/PokemonGoldAndSilver Gold and Silver]]'', eventually including ''[[UpdatedRerelease Pokémon Crystal]]'' elements.

Its full name is ''Pokémon Gold & Silver: The Golden Boys'', written and drawn by Muneo Saito. It follows the basic story of the games quite well, with quite a few twists added in. Rare for a ''Pokémon'' adaptation, it shows characters eating meat and shows cars quite explicitly.

* YouGottaHaveBlueHair: Quite a few people.

* AscendedExtra: Gym leaders, the rocket executive, and Joey.

* BlushSticker: Almost everyone has markings on their cheeks which may or may not just be long lasting blushes, as they disappear on occasion for a panel or so at a time.

* EvilRedhead: Black.

* TheRival: Black to Gold.

* TomboyishName: Crystal's nickname, Chris.

* AscendedExtra: Gym leaders, the rocket executive, and [[EnsembleDarkhorse Joey]].

* {{Tomboy}}: Chris is both an explorer and a trainer. Unlike most Kris counterparts and {{Fanon}} interpretations, she owns a Cyndaquil rather then the more commonly used Chikorita.

* BadassGrandpa: Kurt.

* {{Tomboy}} : Chris is both an explorer and a trainer. Unlike most Kris counterparts and {{Fanon}} interpretations, she owns a Cyndaquil rather then the more commonly used Chikorita.

* CanonForeigner: Technically speaking. The unnamed male Rocket Executive was made into a character named "Grey".

* MundaneMadeAwesome: Pokémon Basketball.

!!This series provides examples of:

** Kris's hair has been changed from blue to an almost green hue of teal.

* NamesTheSame: Gold and Crystal have the same names as their ''Manga/PokemonAdventures'' counterparts, for obvious reasons. Oddly, Black does not go by any name from the games.
* NoExportForYou: Only released in Japan and Singapore.

* WordSaladTitle: Variation. It makes sense considering the protagonist is named "Gold" and it's based off a game series where one of the games is "Gold", but it still is random and makes no sense in it's apparent context.

* MeaningfulName: This has to be the reason for Silver being named "Black". It most likely refers to his clothing and his behavior (him having a "black" heart)

* RealMenWearPink: Black's starter, Chikorita, is a feminine looking [[GreenThumb grass type]]. [[spoiler:He quickly abandons it for being his standard of weak though. Gold obtains it]]

Gold, a {{determin|ator}}ed young boy, is asked by the well-known Professor Elm to go to Mr. Pokémon in Cherrygrove City. With his new Pokémon, a [[MakingASplash Totodile]], he invokes on a mission to meet this man and fulfill his mission. He encounters the mysterious Silver, who becomes his [[TheRival rival]]. Unable to find Mr. Pokémon he goes on a journey to find him, fighting gym leaders on the side.
