In the English manga volumes published by [[VIZ]] as well as the Japanese volumes, this arc and the {{chap|Yellow}} arc are both unnamed. However, in the manga listing from VIZ's official website, those two arcs are treated as a single 7-volume arc titled "'''Red and Blue'''".<ref name="VIZ list">[https://www.viz.com/read/manga/pokemon-adventures/all Pokémon Adventures Manga - VIZ]</ref> | |||
The first arc was also retroactively named "'''Red, Blue and Green'''" in [[Hidenori Kusaka]]'s message from the English version of [[Pokémon Adventures volume 14]] published by VIZ. However, in the Japanese version of his message, this arc was mentioned by number instead of by name: | |||
* Japanese version: | |||
*: 「7{{ruby|冊|さつ}}って'''{{ruby|第|だい}}1{{ruby|章|しょう}}'''と{{ruby|第|だい}}2{{ruby|章|しょう}}」(seven volumes: the '''first''' and second arcs) | |||
* English version: | |||
*: ''"[...] the '''Red, Blue and Green''' episodes plus the Yellow episodes total seven volumes [...]"'' | |||
In the Japanese official website, this arc is known as '''赤・緑・青編''' (''Red, Green, and Blue arc'').<ref>[http://corocoro.tv/pokesp/story/comic/tanoshimi/what.html ポケSPの楽しみ方 - Corocoro.tv]</ref> | |||
In English, the naming order "'''Red, Green, and Blue'''" is not known to be officially used. However, this naming order has been sometimes used by fans since it is a direct translation of the Japanese arc title as seen above, and it reflects the order in which the [[Generation I]] games have been released in Japan. | |||
The numerical designation "'''The First Chapter'''" is not known to be officially used for this manga arc. This naming system was introduced later in the {{MangaArc|Ruby & Sapphire}} (officially referred to as "The Fourth Chapter"). However, the shorter "'''1st Chapter'''" is officially used in the story recaps published in the English volumes from {{MangaArc|FireRed & LeafGreen}} and {{MangaArc|Emerald}}. | |||
