"Other" as in not Special, ETOP, that shojo one, or DPA.

I'm planning on importing quite a few of the different manga. They're surprisingly cheap, most of them are under $10. Though I am importing them so..

Anyway, how are them? You don't hear about them online much.

I don't really like Special, so don't try to compare it to that if you feel like you have to compare it to another Pokemon manga.
 
I like How I Became A Pokemon Card. Unfortunately, it's never been translated (most likely because of copyright issues since it shows direct card art). But the stories are really cute, and there's some about the pokemon themselves! It plays fast and loose with its own canon, though (the first story in particular doesn't seem to be in the same continuity as the others, given that it puts the official discovery of pokemon at about TEN YEARS AGO, which other stories contradict ferociously).
 
Yes I was tihnking aobut that one,
and by the way I'm buying "Pokemon Getto Da Ze!"
so I'll know how that is here soon
 
Pocket Monsters is brilliant, best Pokemon manga on the market. Definitely get that one if you can.

Slapstick is excellent.

He said "English translated". I said most series HAVE been translated into English.

So... yeah.

9 in NA. 11, I think, if you count Chuang Yi.

Try 17. And that doesn't include the two newest movie adaptions, which are definitely getting a release.
 
I just got GOLDEN BOYS in the mail, from Singapore...
IT IS EXCELLENT!
check it out
