Ignore that narrow-minded reader from New Mexico...
this is the greatest book ever!"Pokemon" will remain a favorite long after so-called fads like "Simpsons" and "Fairly Oddparents" have been tossed aside for better things.Who needs the so-so "South Park" junk..the ho-hum "Spongebob Squarepants" and the awfully boring"Simpsons" when you can have something exciting like "Pokemon"?Forget the dull "Futurama" garbage and the yawn-inducing adult anime schlock-if you want something exciting-stick with "Pokemon".

I love Tracey!
I love Tracey and Scyther, so this is my fave book out of the series. They're all well-written, and kids shold enjoy them LONG after Pokemon's popularity is over. They teach morals and friendship in a fun way.

Orange Islands Burst Out
Did you ever miss the episodes A Way Day Off, Tracey Gets Bugged, or one of the latest episodes Charizard Chills.Well if you buy this excellentbook written by Shelia Sweeny, you can find out what happened in each ofthose episodes.So if you like the Orange Islands Episodes and missed anyone of these, if I were you I would rush out and buy this at your localbookstore. ...

Pretty good for early elementary
I bought this for my son who is in grade 2. He has learned the mountain fold and the valley fold and the pleat. The results are simple, but acheivable for him. The fold lines are all indicated with colour which really helps a child figure it out for themselves.

Good introduction to origami
Same review as Pokemon Origami 1, only the characters are different. Pokemon Origami 2 is better than the first one!
I bought this for a friend of mine, and let me tell you, that if you love origami and pokemon, then this is the book for you...Since this book is made for younger children, almost anybody can use it!Trust me if you buythis book, you'll enjoy hours of the high quality japanese paper folding! ...

Best Pokemon merchandise out here!!!
Although this US version is quite censored, I can recommend it to any Pokemon fan, but it is absolute must have for any Rocketshipper! It is quite Ash-bashing despite the title. And there are also the most beautiful pictures of Jessie and James! The art style is marvelous and Mr.Ono's humour is great, too!!! this cover's the best!!
i'm very happy ^_^ i managed to get the book with the three characters on front, if your worried by the title and hot it says, pokemon comic series three? just ignore it. the book's the same as the other 4. it was gorgess seeing meousy and all the stuff underwater, a must have...

Pikaaa...Chuu!!!
This Pokemon tradepaperback is the best Pokemon item ever made! The stories are more interesting to read especially better than the television series. Once I got the book in my hands I was amazed at Toshihiro Ono's artwork. This guy can draw! I like good american art and more so manga art. Mr. Ono's work is outstanding story and art both. If you are a lover of good art and enjoy Pokemon this is the book to get ( along with all the othe TPs from his other 3 Pokemon books). Hope this review is helpful. ... Read more

The BEST Pokemon Guides are from VERSUS BOOKS!
When VERSUS BOOKS was out making some of the best guides ever (Resident Evil 2, Metal Gear Solid, The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, and of course, they're highly sought Final Fantasy VII guide), they made a guide to Pokemon Yellow.This guide blew EVERY other guide out of the water with it's enriched detail, in-depth Pokedex and Secrets that not even Nintendo Power shared with gamers!

A great storyline!!!
Magical pokemon Journey (Aka Pipipi Adventure) is the best Poke-comic ever!!! More Love Rivals! More Fun!!
In this volume, Almond is put through a test from Squirtle's sisters, so he can keep being friends with him. At the end, Almond has to be hospitalized, which leads us to the next story. While he's in the hospital, Hazel goes to buy flowers for him from her friend's brother's flower shop. He gets a crush on Hazel, which may lead to a lot of trouble later! And Yumi Tsukirino-sensei has a really cute picture of Almond with his hair down at the end. ^_^ Then, since Pistachio's Bulbasaur is really jealous about his crush on Hazel, she tries to get a love potion from Grandpa. And then, a Pidgeot is trying too hard to impress his crush. When will he learn what she really wants? Um... I can't really remember the other two stories... so I'll just go onto the bonus stories. ^^,Read more

Excellence!
Since the Limited Edition Guide isn't listed, I'll say a few things about the ups of that too. This really is the best guide for Pkmn Colosseum, and in the Limited Edition, you get a bunch of extra things: full 3D artbook of all of the Pokemon in the game plus the main characters, a flier that tells you how to enter to win a free Pokemon E-Watch, and a nice case for all of the contents of the package. THE BEST GUIDE FOR POKEMON COLOSSEUM
Bradygames has had a history of both good and bad books. This book is probably the best of their guides. I have the Limited Edition Guide and it ROCKS. It has more info than any other guide out for this great game. The Nintendo Power Guides don't list every detail and many things are out of order. In this guide, you will see nice maps, great strategies for both walkthroughs and trainer battles, and a great pokedex also. For Limited Edition Guide buyers, you will get an exclusive art book, which really doesn't include anything that you can't see for yourself except for some rare drawings of Miror B. (the head honcho of one of the gangs in Colosseum). The guide is just amazing. If you're gonna get a guide, then you must get this one. Not even the Prima Guide equals up to this. See what happens when you get rid of the head Prima Pokemon writer (Elizabeth Hollinger)? GREAT BOOK. ... Read more

Nice Item For Pokemon Fans
I bought this for my 8 year old who is a pokemon fan.He loves sitting with the book and some paper and trying to draw the characters on his own.It's a nice break from video games.

Great drawing book!
This book is fantastic for the up and coming artist in your family, especially if they love Pokemon and all the characters.I bought this book for my daughter and she loves it!!She is quite the artist and has learned to draw all her favorite Pokemon characters all by freehand and they look fantastic! Cool book
This Pokemon drawing book is really well detailed on how to draw 27 of some of the new pokemon and some of the older ones. It has the pictures when they are finished so if you don't want to draw free hand you can trace the pokemon.If you are into drawing and you are into pokemon you will love this book. Makes a nice gift for pokemon lovers. ... Read more

A nice, concise guidebook
This is a handy pocket-sized companion guidebook for the Pokemon Game Boy Color Crystal game.This is really a gift for my son so I have little to say about it other than he finds it helpful and useful.I ordered it through amazon.com because it is not an easy book to find locally any longer since the game is no longer manufactured.

I would give it five if it weren't for one thing....
The fact that this guide is in Black and White makes some of the screenshots unclear and foggy like.Other than that the walkthrough is very detailed and the book fits just about anywhere.But if your looking for a guide with good detail go to Prima, or if your looking for a guide that goes beyond Strategy get the VERSUS BOOKS guide.But this has a very detailed walkthrough, just that the screenshots are fuzzy by the black and white.

COOL DUDE!
This book is very helpful to help you with the crystal version. It is really neat too. It helps me figure out what do. I love it! ... Read more

Professional and Precise
In contrast to the Prima books, the Versus guide certainly lives up to the 'perfect' title. Whereas the Prima guide is riddled with mistakes and wrong information, the Versus guide has a near perfect presentation of text and maps. This is a very disappointing book.
I bought this book at the same time I bought the Gold/Silver versions. I was disappointed when I started looking at the book. This is becuase this book dosen't have a list of the Pokemon and where you find them like the other books! If there were an index with Pokemon #1-251, then it would be much easier. Not only that, but through the whole book there are always certain Pokemon that are marked with "???" which is really annoying and will get in your way guaranteed, especially when your looking for Pokemon in the gameboy. I went to another book and they had a list of all 251 Pokemon (and pictures) and now I have 245 out of the 251 Pokemon.

It's good, but it can be better!
It's a very good book, especially when you want to figure out everything on your own. This book suits for the basics.Read more

The Orange Islands have a league on their own. But what is this? Dancing Pokemon, Mountain climbing. Sometimes ash can't even use his Pokemons. Can Ash stand the challenge?

POKEMON
POKEMON fans everywhere have this masterpiece in thier collection!!!!!!!!!! Quite poor.
I was inspecting the book, a really poor written book, I'm glad the book Scyther, Heart of a champion will be written by Sheila Sweeney. Tracey Westfails to describe about the Orange league. However, the way she describesthe way Squirtle used hydro pump is fascinating in many ways. ... Read more

A well-drawn and original Pokemon manga
This next installment in Toshihiro Ono's shonen(boys) Pokemon manga series is called 'Pikachu Shocks Back'. It's aimed more at older kids and teenagers, and the artwork is drawn very well. There are four stories here: this one by far would be my favourite!
the comic at the very beginning was the cutest and the first story, the human race and the pokemon race. looked amazing althou ponyta looked more stronger and less graceful. the second story, to evolve or not to evolve (i'm sure you all know what this is about) has the best pictures and is soooo cute. Pikachus adventure, is a new story that is wonderful and a nice touch. the the last one you gotta have friends... was touching and confirmed pikachu is a guy!!

Pokemon comics!
This book was great.I really enjoyed it.It has some different pokemon adventures in it, like the one about mikey and his eevee.That one was very funny. I have read this book alot of times and I still do.What it means by "graphic novel" is that it is just like a comic book, so that I could read it at school and the teachers didn't know.Hehehe :).But anyway, if you liked the pokemon T.V. series,(I think this is a lot better ), you should definatly consider this.I'm still going back and reading it! ...

Itis the best and its very helpful
This book is great because I belong to the Pokemon Trading Card Game League and it gave me tips on how to improve my deck and to improve myskill in dueling Pokemon Cards. This book also said... wait I can't tellyou what else it said because then I would be ruining for other people so Iwill say nothing else then to buy this book for yourself and read its goodtips

If you''re a Pokemon trainer : READ THIS BOOK!
This book not only gives you helpful advice on building a deck , it gives individual strategy on each card in the Base Set andJungle sets . ( If it were a little more updated , it would be a must-have)DON'T WAIT! GET ITNOW!

Great book for newbie players and advanced players alike.
I got this book for Christmas because my decks really blew andI wanted a handy spoiler list.This book has just an awesome deckbuilding section!It goes through every component of building a dreamdeck.The spoilers have a graphic for every card, and you can clearly read the card text.It also has a few archetypes, such as Haymaker, Rain Dance, etc.The biggest bonus was the Pokemon Snap guide, it helped me beat it!I would've liked maybe a few more archetypes and maybe card ratings, but hey, it's still a great book! ...

Totally Awesome!
This is a reeeeeeeeeeeeely neat book. DEFINITLY better than the tv show, little more violent and serious and goofyish and cute all at the same time. It introduces another character who is the water starter trainer (though admittedly, she stole it) and Bill, a hillbillyish researcher (ironicly, both are scared of birds). It ends a little open ended but it's good nonetheless. In case you want to know what pokemon's artwork are in it they are: Bulbasaur, ivysaur,Poliwhirl, pikachu, pinsir, charmeleon, charmander,squirtle, wartortle, snorlax, half of mewtwo,rhydon, hitmonlee, gravelar, machamp, tauros, ditto, jigglypuff, mew, jynx,porygon, marowak, golduck, machoke, pidgeot, scyther, diglett, krabby, ninetales,tangela, eevee, vileplume,drowzee, jolteon, vaporeon, flareon, bellsprout, kadabra, nidoking, nidoqueen, victreebell, weepinbell, parasect, eggsecute, sandshrew, magmar, cloyster, dragonite, gyarados, starmie, articuno, muk, gengar, arcanine, rapidash, moltres, areodactyl, zapdos, charizard.

Pokemon does it again!
Pokemon always amazes me, and it always will. This manga amazed me in ways beyond belief. Unlike the anime, this manga is based off the video games. To be specific, it is based off of Pokemon Red, Pokemon Green (a.k.a. Pokemon Blue in America), and Pokemon Blue (Japan-only). The main character is Red, based off the main character of the game. His rival is Green (a.k.a. Blue in America). He was based off the rival in the game. Then, we meet a cute, yet cunning, girl name Blue (a.k.a. Green in America), who was an original character. She was used as the female character years later in Pokemon Fire Red and Pokemon Leaf Green.
Pokemon Adventures Volume 2
This comic book is really good.However, the comic book world of Pokemon is a bit more grim than the television show or game, so I'm not sure I'd recommend it for younger or more sensitive children.The comic book series centers around Red, a trainer from Pallet Town, who looks rather like Ash from the TV show, but he's a bit different.And, of course, he has a Pikachu.
