it was worth it, because i like this series but no one around here ever sells it.

My son has the entire series of these books thus far (volumes 1-5). He loves them. Though reading them right to left was a little disorienting at first he got used to that pretty quickly. The text in these graphic novel-style book is limited and easy to read so I would say it should not count as serious reading time for your children to take credit for at school, but the illustrations, while only in black-and-white, are well-done and great fun to look through as you follow the story. And, like all other Pokemon stories it imparts the usual message of taking care of each other and helping your friends even if the story line is filled with the usual battles and a degree of violence.

when i ordered the book it said it was in good conditions, when i open the package book looks very old and even with water damage ....terrible book condition

Better volume this time around. Hareta is still annoying as ever, but at least there are things that make up for it:

-Conclusion to Mitsumi and Hareta's battle is intense.
-Woah at Mitsumi wanting to stay behind even though the building is exploding. (She's saved at the last minute by Jun of course, because you know... you can't have people dying like that in a kids comic.)
-So cute when Mitsumi is reunited with her Eevee.
-Piplup evolves into Empoleon. Awesome.
-Dialga shows up. Even more awesome.

I think my big problem with this volume is the conclusion to the battle with Dialga and Palkia, because it is just taken care of too easily. I was definitely expecting something a little more since these are the Pokemon that rule time and space.
