Favorite Pokemon Special Arc

[Neiko Star]

So, what's your favorite 'chapter' in Pokemon Special? My favorite is probably R/S, though I loved G/S/C and FR/LG as well.

G/S/C. I loved the way they involved all the characters in it.

R/B/G and FR/LG for obvious reasons. I also enjoyed the R/S arc as well. The G/S/C arc was neat, but I didn't exactly read it all the way through until later, because when I first read it I only read the parts with Red. Same goes for the Yellow arc and Emerald Arc, though I don't think I've read either of those all the way through yet.

... so yeah. R/B/G and FR/LG arcs.

I've completed through the GSC arc, and I preferred the Yellow and RBG arcs so far. I actually kinda consider them one because of how the plot is structured between the two arcs.

R/B/G arc, I just like the entire story. Very true to the game, but with a darker tone. Of course, it also doesn't hurt Red is the main character! :3 My second favorite would probably be FR/LG, to see the original trio go on another adventure was amazing~ I also really enjoyed the Emerald Arc, just because it was something entirely new to the Battle Frontier story and because all 10 dex holders unite! :3

The Diamond and Pearl chapter is my favorite, so far. Hidenori Kusaka learned how to develop characters with perfect timing and realistic trait additions and alterations from the six chapters before D/P, and then he applied it for the arc itself. The plot suffered slightly (barely, actually), but I think the trade off was worth it.

G/S/C. I've always loved Johto so a manga set there is awesome. Also, Gold and Crys are probably still my favorite characters from PokéSpe. And the whole story there was cute in a way, deep in a way + it was connected with the R/B/Y arc which I thought was exciting.

The R/S arc is great too though, with the plot far surpassing the game's story. But I always thought that arc was missing something... it made Hoenn feel too small. Like, they reached the different parts of Hoenn too quickly and easily, while Red traveled for a long time (at least it seemed like he did) on foot in Kanto. I loved how they made Hoenn's landscape come alive though, putting jungles there and all.

G/S/C for me. Gold, Ataro, Kris, and Silver = awesomeness.

I'd have to say the Yellow arc, the fact they brought the girl who Red taught to capture pokemon in the beginning of his arc coming back as the main character her special ability, and the whole battle with the Four Heavenly Kings/Elite Four was just amazing.

I feel like one of the few people whose favorite arc is yellow

my favorite arc of all time was FRLG. since it included the kanto trio and silver <3, and interesting plot, and the jump rope and berry catching scene ^^

i agree. partially, i think they did that so it would fit in with ruby's and sapphire's 80 day bet. for all we know, it could have taken red more than 3 months to travel through the entire kanto region.

finally, i liked the plot in GSC. the neo-team rocket was a nice twist :3

 

[Reiyu]

I loved the Emerald Arc and the Yellow Arc

I guess it was the Yellow arc. It was more interesting than Emerald to me.
