Monthly releases

Issue #1: Mysterious Mew

Preceding the release of Volume 1 in North America were five monthly releases containing three chapters each, comprising the entire Volume 1 as well as the first chapter of Volume 2. These monthly comic book issues were released by VIZ Media between September 24, 1999 and January 28, 2000, followed by the Volume 1 release in April. As a bonus, these monthly releases each contained a sheet of stickers which were not included in the regular volume releases. The following monthly comic book issues were released:

Mysterious Mew (September 24, 1999)
Wanted: Pikachu (October 29, 1999)
Starmie Surprise (November 19, 1999)
The Snorlax Stop (December 10, 1999)
The Gastly Ghosts (January 28, 2000)

Trivia

Despite Red's Poli debuting as a Poliwhirl, the contents page of this volume show Red with a Poliwag.
Charmander has spines on its back on the title page, similar to its Generation I back sprites, but this is absent in future generations.

Errors

There are a few spelling and grammar errors in the brief description of the second volume.

"See Red in his disguise!" is "See Red is disguise!".
"An appearance by Mew!" is "An appearans by Mew!".
"A mysterious living thing!" is "Mysterious Living Thing!".

In VIZ Media's second edition, the Adventure Route Map has Electabuzz misspelled as "Electrabuzz".
In the overview of Red's team at the end of the book, Saur is listed as a pure Grass type instead of Grass/Poison.
There is a printing error that occurs in the Finnish edition. Two pages are repeated by accident, effectively removing two pages entirely: page 108 is replaced by page 101, and page 110 is replaced by page 103.

This article is part of Project Manga, a Bulbapedia project that aims to write comprehensive articles on each series of Pokémon manga.
