Unlike the anime—which, though drawing much inspiration from the games, does not follow them exactly—Pokémon Adventures is a mostly game-based manga, with the fifteen main characters taking their names from the [[main series]] games and their various adventures tending to stay restricted to their home [[region]]. Also unlike the anime, which has gone to great lengths to indicate the danger of a [[legendary Pokémon]] being captured, the main characters of Pokémon Adventures have captured and sometimes use their own legends, much as the {{player}} can in the games. Pokémon Adventures also contains darker elements than other media, including certain characters and some Pokémon actually dying. | Unlike the anime—which, though drawing much inspiration from the games, does not follow them exactly—Pokémon Adventures is a mostly game-based manga, with the fifteen main characters taking their names from the [[main series]] games and their various adventures tending to stay restricted to their home [[region]].
