Number of Pages: 29 pages Corresponding TV episode(s): Episode 078 "The Sakuragi Laboratory's Being Targeted!" It's
nighttime at the Sakuragi Laboratory, and Gou's Jimeleon sees an odd
zigzag pattern darting through the darkness. The next morning, our
heroes discover that all the data that they'd collected from the Isshu
Region has vanished! The same thing happens the following night, only
this time it's the data from the Galar Region that's gone missing.
Jimeleon witnesses just how upset its Trainer is getting by these
thefts; to Gou, that stolen data represents a record of all the
precious experiences he's had traveling around. That night, a newly
determined Jimeleon stakes out the inside of Dr. Sakuragi's laboratory.
The zigzag pattern reappears, and Jimeleon discovers that it belongs
to...a Kakuleon!? Everyone in the lab wakes up and chases the Color
Swap Pokémon outside where its Trainer, a young man named
Yabashi, is waiting for it. A Pokémon battle begins when
Kakuleon using Sucker Punch on Gou's unsuspecting Jimeleon. Eventually,
Gou jumps in between Jimeleon and Kakuleon to protect his
Pokémon and so Jimeleon responds by evolving into Inteleon!
Kakuleon tries to attack the newly evolved Pokémon with Iron
Tail but Inteleon manages to slither out of the way before launching
its own counterattack. Yabashi sees that he has no chance of winning so
he tries to fly away on a jetpack but Inteleon uses its new technique,
Snipe Shot, to bring Yabashi crashing back to earth. Later, Yabashi
reveals that he's actually a huge fan of Dr. Sakuragi and that he only
stole the data so he could learn more about the man he reveres so much.
The data's not completely gone, he adds, so Dr. Sakuragi says that as
long as he returns it then all will be forgiven. Now that the stolen
data's been recovered Gou and his Inteleon look back at their
adventures so far.
Notes
This manga chapter came out on August 12th but the TV episode on which it's based won't air until August 27th. This is only the second time this has ever happened with this series; the first time was with Chapter Two in the January 2020 issue of CoroCoro Comics. Every other manga chapter has come out after the episodes on which they're based has aired, not before. Differences between the comic and the TV series Coming Soon!
Publication Date: September
15th,
2021
Number of Pages: 28 pages Corresponding TV episode(s): Episode 077 "A Super-Electromagnetic Hyper Class Battle!" & Episode 080 "A Trial Mission! Ulgamoth's Golden Scales!!" Satoshi and Gou both receive word of
the next challenge in their respective journeys and so the two of
them decide to part ways; Satoshi goes to the Sinnoh Region to have a
Pokémon World Championships match against the Gym Leader Denji
while Gou sets off for the Isshu Region on his first official Project
Mew mission. Satoshi's adventure starts with
a match between his Lucario and Denji's Rentora. Rentora uses Electric
Terrain to power up its Rising Voltage attack and so Lucario responds
with Aura
Sphere. In the Isshu Region, meanwhile, Gou heads inside
a mine on a mission to gather the scales of the Legendary
Pokémon Ulgamoth. But before long the young Trainer finds
himself being chased
by a group of wild Dangoro! As he runs Gou comes
across an adventurer who himself is being chased by wild
Pokémon. Gou calls on his Aceburn
and Inteleon to send the wild Pokémon packing and allow Gou and
his new adventurer friend to continue further into the mine. The two
Trainers eventually come across
a group of Pokémon eggs that the adventurer then tries to steal
for
himself...!? The young adventurer, who turns out to be a Pokémon
Hunter, calls on his Denchura to use Sticky Web to keep Gou from
interfering. He then starts to gather up the legendary Pokémon
eggs, unaware that a group of angry Merlarva are closing in on the two
of them. Back in Sinnoh,
Rentora uses Rising Voltage to break through Lucario's combination of
Double Team and Aura Sphere. Lucario then uses Reversal to soften the
impact of Rentora's Snarl attack and so Rentora prepares yet another
Rising Voltage assault. Lucario counters with Reversal, but will that
be enough to win Satoshi the battle!? And what's going to happen to
Gou? To be continued!
Notes This chapter is part one of a two-parter. Differences between the comic and the TV series In the animated series, Satoshi and Gou went on both adventures; Gou went with Satoshi to the Sinnoh Region to watch his battle with Denji and then, a few episodes later, Satoshi went with Gou to the Isshu Region to help out with his Project Mew mission.
Publication Date: October
15th,
2021
Number of Pages: 32 Corresponding TV episode(s): Episode 077 "A Super-Electromagnetic Hyper Class Battle!" & Episode 080 "A Trial Mission! Ulgamoth's Golden Scales!!" In the Sinnoh Region, Rentora's Rising Voltage and Lucario's Reversal result in a double knock out! For their next battle, Satoshi and Denji send out their Pikachu and Elekible respectively. Pikachu jumps right into it with a Thunderbolt but its attack gets absorbed by Elekible's Motor Drive Ability and so Satoshi switches it up by having Pikachu use Iron Tail. Elekible counters with an Iron Tail of its own, but the fact that Elekible actually has two tails instead of one gives it an advantage! Meanwhile, in the Isshu Region, the group of Merlarva who had surrounded Gou and the Pokémon Hunter shoot off some fire attacks that knock out the Hunter's Denchura. The flames also happen to free Gou from the web that had been pinning him down, enabling him to join the fray with his Aceburn and Inteleon. Gou's Pokémon launch a volley of attacks that sends the Pokémon Hunter running, ensuring that the Pokémon and their Eggs are all safe. But now there's a new problem; the mineshaft they're all in has caught on fire! Gou, the Merlarva, and the Pokémon Eggs are all about to be crushed by falling debris when a Shiny Merlarva appears, evolves into Ulgamoth, and uses Fire Spin to suck up all the fire in the area! As it takes care of the fire, Gou scrambles to gather the golden Ulgamoth scales flitting about through the sky. Back in the Sinnoh Region, Satoshi decides to end the battle with Pikachu's Z-Move, 10,000,000 Volt Thunderbolt. Elekible's Motor Drive absorbs the energy, as expected, but the amount of electricity pouring out of Pikachu is just too much for it to handle! Elekible essentially "overloads," causing a huge explosion that knocks it unconscious! With both of Denji's Pokémon knocked out, Satoshi is declared the winner! Back at the Sakuragi Laboratory, Satoshi and Gou recap their adventures to each other; Satoshi's won his first Hyper Class Battle while Gou has completed his first Project Mew Trial Mission. After restating their goals to each other, Gou receives a message on his phone with information about an unidentified Mythical Pokémon! The two boys grin before running out of the lab, ready for their next adventure. The End
Notes This chapter is part two of a two-parter. On September 17th, 2021, Machito Gomi revealed in this tweet that the chapter in the November 2021 issue will be the final one of the series. He thanks the fans for all their support and assures them that while the manga is wrapping up, the animated series on which it's based will continue. Differences between the comic and the TV series Like with the previous chapter, Satoshi and Gou go on solo adventures in the manga while both Trainers are present for both adventures in the animated series. Since this is the last chapter of the manga, a brand new scene is added at the end to help wrap up the series. Top
