EDIT: If you bother to read what I've written below, please read the other posts as well. Someone may/probably has already addressed one of the points I made. Thank you.
I really like the manga a lot. And I agree that the violence makes it seem more realistic. There's a great plot that doesn't seem to exist in the anime, and they aren't flat in personality. I find it awesomr how the Pokemon aren't limited to existing attacks and know more than four moves (I'm pretty sure you don't need to make your dog forget how to sit in order to make roll over).
There are things, however, that really bug me. The elite Four are portrayed a evil people who hate humans and are for the ruling of Pokemon. Since when? I hated how Lance was basically evil instead of the really cool champion.
Green is the "mysterious quiet type." As smexy as I find it, he isn't the adorably obnoxious kid he's supposed to be. Most ten year olds I see don't act like that. What ever happened to, "Smell ya' later!?" I also how they portrayed Pryce. He was an awesome gym leader who ended ups as a selfish guy who kidnapped kids. I mean I understand that he wanted his two Lapras back, but why kidnap children?
Yellow is another thing that bugs me. I'm fine with Yellow's character; she's cute. I'm even fine with her being a girl, but the fact the she's almost canonically shipped with Red bugs me. They are technically the same person in the game. Why in the world would you want to be paired with yourself from a parallel universe. This goes for other hero/heroine ships (mostly mangaquest). I think the best way for them to coexist would be siblings. I'm not as mad at the new gen ships because they actually meet each other in the games and have separate families.
Why were the badges used to summon Lugia? I mean, why give them out if you lost? I'm pretty sure that other who had beaten gym leaders were given badges too, so wouldn't summoning Lugia be even easier with those many badges. Why were the some of the Gym leaders evil? Why would they give you a badge if they were?
From what I have read of the RS arc, why did Sapphire have the weaker Pokemon when she was the main rival?
I've only read up to the GSC arcand a little of the RS arc, but I do know about other important parts of the manga like Silver and his father. I know a lot you may hate me for disliking the aforementioned things, but it breaks from what was supposed to happen in the games.
So now that I'm done with my rant, I wanna hear your opinions. What did you find wrong with the manga? Why are some of the things mentioned above okay despite being against the game and really clarify. Why did it change large aspects that happened in the game?
If you're mad enough to flame me go right ahead. I will use them to roast marshmallows and for lols.
