'''Yellow''' (Japanese: '''第二章 イエロー編''' ''The Second Chapter: Yellow'') is the second {{adv|chapter}} of the [[Pokémon Adventures]] manga and it consists of four volumes with fifty rounds. It began serialization in May 1998, and ended in November 1999.

This chapter features the journeys of {{adv|Yellow}} through [[Kanto]] trying to find {{adv|Red}} after Red's beaten-up [[Pika]]chu ends up at the doorstep at [[Professor Oak's Laboratory|Oak's Lab]]. In the meantime of finding Red, Yellow gets attacked by the members of the [[Elite Four]] and their quest to create a utopia for Pokémon by wiping out most of humanity.

In [[VIZ Media]]'s first translation of Pokémon Adventures, this chapter is known as "Yellow Caballero".

Beginning in September 1999, VIZ Media released the {{chap|Red, Green & Blue}} and the ''Yellow'' chapter as a series of monthly comic books, preceding their collected volume releases of the manga. In total, 22 monthly single issues were released of the ''Yellow'' chapter.

Beginning in June 2014, {{pmin|France|European French}} publisher Kurokawa began releasing the {{chap|Red, Green & Blue}} and the ''Yellow'' chapter together as a series of three omnibus volumes. While the {{chap|Red, Green & Blue}} and the ''Yellow'' chapter had been previously released in France by publisher Glénat, these volumes feature a new translation. Kurokawa's omnibus volumes contain all the adventure route maps from the original Japanese volumes, but lack the character introduction pages from the beginning of the volumes.

* This is the only chapter released before its corresponding game. The first chapter was serialized in May 1998, while Pokémon Yellow Version came out in September of that year.
