I loved the second volume of Pokemon adventures. This volume seems to get more into the story of team Rocket as the antagonist. However, the story seems to go very fast compared to volume one. Suddenly everyhing is about team Rocket and the pokemon they experiment on and the story of Mew and Mewto. Also Green is introduced as a character in this volume, but I don't find her very likeable. However, despite this the volume was a lot of fun to read because of the introduction of the new pokemon and because Red is a very likeable character. I cannot wait to read the next volume.

I wasn’t expecting legendaries to come into the story so quickly, this is honestly really well done and paced. Different but similar to the anime.

I think that the best part about these early volumes is the depth they give to side characters. We meet Green (or Blue, depending on your translation) in the first few chapters here, and she provides an interesting counterweight to Red's incessant optimism and Blue's cold demeanor. Giovanni and Blaine also get introduced and set up for their later importance in the story.

But, I think maybe the weakest part is that Red still feels... generic. He seems almost TOO good, unlike Blue and Green, who both have obvious flaws to overcome in their journeys as protagonists. So far, Red really has yet to encounter anything that shakes him enough to force him to change. I think that's coming in the next volume.

Similar to vol. 1, but with a lot more action this time around! Lots of interesting characters and locations.

It's a really good sequel to the first installment. It kept me entertained and fulfilled. I really enjoyed this read.
