History Trivia / PokemonAdventures

* In the HG/SS games, Lyra replaced Crystal. In the manga, [[https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/File:Crystal_HGSS_Adventures_2.png Crystal wears]] [[https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/File:HeartGold_SoulSilver_Lyra.png Lyra's]] outfit during the HG/SS arc and Lyra is nowhere to be seen (and probably won't appear). Meaning, Crys fans got their revenge.

* As opposed to the anime or even the games, Pokemon are generally portrayed as mute. (Except for Red's Pika early in the RBG arc)

* As opposed to the anime or even the games, almost all the Pokemon are portrayed as mute. (Except for Red's Pika early in the RBG arc)

* OutOfOrder: It's pretty hard to piece together a timeline from the magazine releases alone due to the confusing way they're released. Fans have to wait until the volumes come out to figure out when what happens.

* OneOfUs:
** The author notes often have Kusaka ''completely fanboying'' over whatever new game (main or spinoff) came out.
** Yamamoto is a fan of ComicBook/SpiderMan and WesternAnimation/SpongeBobSquarePants. He also stated that he drew inspiration from his favorite {{Kaiju}} movies when drawing Groudon and Kyogre.

* WritingByTheSeatOfYourPants: By necessity. Kusaka gets plot, characters and Pokemon from whatever game comes out (with the exception of perhaps Pokemon Yellow), which he then plays, [[OneOfUs fanboys over]], then uses whatever he needs to cook up the story. Goes full circle when later games suddenly have similar plot points to his.

* DevelopmentHell: The [=B2W2=] arc fell victim to this when its magazine run ended early to make room for XY and thus was forced to go straight to the volume-only format. It says a lot about how delayed it is when both XY and ORAS (the Gen VI arcs, which came ''after'' [=B2W2=]) have finished their runs and [[VideoGame/PokemonSunAndMoon Gen VII has already started]], while the 2nd volume of the [=B2W2=] arc is still nowhere in sight.

It says a lot about how delayed it is when both XY and ORAS (the Gen VI arcs, which came ''after'' BW2) have finished their runs and [[VideoGame/PokemonSunAndMoon Gen VII has already started]], while the 2nd volume of the BW2 arc is still nowhere in sight.

* KeepCirculatingTheTapes: The Chuang-Hi translation is officially this thanks to the publisher going out of business.

** Wally was initially intended to be the holder of third Hoenn Pokédex; in the original magazine run, he registered the Pokédex he accidentally came across. However, this was changed in the official volume release (where Wally simply picked it up and eventually returned it to Professor Birch), as the writer realized that Wally's character wouldn't have fit into the Battle Frontier, necessitating the creation of Emerald.

* AttentionDeficitCreatorDisorder: Pokemon Adventures has the dubious honor of allowing its creator to suffer this on its own due to its extremely complicated magazine release.

* The writer for this series, Hidenori Kusaka, acted as an adviser for Miho Asada's ''PhantomThiefPokemon7'', also coming up with the name for the main character Hiori.

* BigNameFan: Coronis, as for a long while he was literally the only source of information for Englsih-speaking fans of what was currently going on in the series.

* CreatorPreferredAdaptation: Satoshi Tajiri, the creator of Pokémon, once stated that the manga most resembles the world that he was trying to convey. It's a long outdated quote though, and may not hold true post Generation II (and Tajiri isn't even in charge of the franchise past then anyway, Junichi Masuda is,)

** Crystal's mom--Lady Gaga.

* FanNickname: The manga itself tends to be [[PortmanteauSeriesNickname affectionately abbreviated]] as "[=PokéSpe=]" or "[=PokéSupe=]" in both Japanese and English.

* IKnewIt: The collective fan reaction to [[spoiler:Silver being Giovanni's son, and officially video game canon when [=HeartGold=] and [=SoulSilver=] came out]].
