    Hey, does anyone know of a good bookstore (I'd prefer new books, but I'm open to nearly anything at this point) where I could find some of the harder to locate issues of Pokemon Adventures? The ones I'm having the most difficulty finding are Volumes 3 through 5:

    Saffron City Siege
    Trainer in Yellow
    Making Waves

    I believe all of them must be going out of print, because even the VIZ website only has the first two volumes for sale. Anyone have any ideas? I've googled 'til my eyes hurt, and I still can't find anything that claims they have them in stock. :(

    I was thinking of just giving up and buying the Japanese ones from the store mentioned in the sticky above. It'd be a good exercise for my Japanese translation skills. But I really would prefer the first seven volumes in English, if I can get them. And I do want the VIZ publications, if possible. Thanks guys!

    Thanx, but I'd translate them myself before I bought any "Fanslations" (I don't even know if that's a real term; I made it up XP). I like VIZ, and I think that, for the most part, they do a pretty good job in their translations. Although the older ones (like these) tend to be doctored a bit to fit TV series, censorship issues, and other factors. :(

    Arent buying and selling not allowed on PCand try,I dont know if you tried this but https://www.BarnesandNoble.com or https://www.Cahguny.com I think.

    I tried Barnes and Noble already, and for some reason the second link doesn't work. I can't figure out what it's to, either. :( Y'know, I hated to go to BN, though. I used to work at a Books-A-Million, and it was great there. Their biggest competition was always Barnes and Noble, so I swore I'd never shop in one. :D But sometimes you can't get around it, you know?

    Anyone else with any ideas? Comic Book shops would be ideal, I think. I'll go do some more digging...

    *Edit*
    I just saw in the rules that this thread is against the rules. Sorry about that, guys. Don't answer anymore, okay? I'll just do my best! :dead:
     
    you won't be able to find them anywhere anymore. I found Volumes 1-3 in Borders at my area but they're the only left, probably from the older stock. It's virtually impossible to find them in bookstores. I suggest ordering them via ChuangYi, Borders, or Viz (I don't think Viz has the Yellow chapters... they may have but the last time I checked, I couldn't find them)

    And yeah...
    Part of the rules, I have to close this... -.-

    *CLOSED*
