The Yellow arc (Japanese: イエロー編 Yellow arc), also referred to as The Second Chapter (Japanese: 第二章 The Second Chapter), is the second story arc of the Pokémon Adventures manga, consisting of four volumes with fifty chapters. It began serialization in May 1998, and ended in November 1999.
This arc features the journeys of Yellow through Kanto trying to find Red after Red's beaten-up Pikachu ends up at the doorstep at 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 arc is known as "Yellow Caballero".
