it is soooooooooooo much better than the anime. If you don't like Ash, and think that pokemon anime is too childish and think that 4kids made the anime worse with their dubs, the pokespecial manga is the right manga for you. Which is the main manga that a lot of pokefans read.... like me :)
thats cool well i g2g remember i have a tennis tournment to practice for and im not planning to lose so i have to get to my practices (too bad on weekends i practice for 6 hours)
