Great so the manga is nearly caught up with the games

Not really. Next up will be the BW volume, though BW2 are already out.

Anyway, why are there so few HGSS volumes?

Because Hidenori Kusaka doesn't know how to craft a story around Arceus, let alone the Ruins of Alph or Sinjoh Ruins.

How about a story based on Groudon/Kyogre and Lati@s too? That would pad out the chapter a bit more.

What's the point of padding out? Either he has a good story to tell or he doesn't. Merely showcasing features of three-year old games shouldn't be enough. If anything, he should have revisited the Johto legendaries.

Wait, how do we know this is the final volume? I could be missing something obvious here, but I don't see any official indication proving or disproving this volume being the last of the Chapter.

The preview from volume 41 referred to the climax being covered in the next volume.
