Overview
Follow Hareta, a boy raised in the wild by Pokémon, as he leaves his forest home to become a Pokémon Trainer and chase his dream of facing the Sinnoh region's toughest Gym Leaders. This complete box set collects all eight paperback volumes of Shigekatsu Ihara's manga adaptation inspired by the Pokémon Diamond and Pearl video games, plus a bonus collectible poster. Packed with action, humor, and dozens of familiar Pokémon, it's an ideal introduction to manga for young readers and longtime fans of the franchise alike, offering hours of adventure in one tidy set.

About the Books
Most kids spend their days at school, but not Hareta. Raised alone in the wild by Pokémon, he can climb as high as an Aipom, swim as fast as a Magikarp, and even eat bark like a Bidoof. When he ventures out of the forest and meets Professor Rowan, Hareta discovers his calling: becoming a Pokémon Trainer. Shigekatsu Ihara's manga retelling of the Pokémon Diamond and Pearl video games follows Hareta across the Sinnoh region as he catches Pokémon, challenges Gym Leaders, squares off against the scheming Team Galactic, and works to earn his place among the region's strongest Trainers. This box set gathers the full eight-volume run, letting readers follow Hareta's entire journey from newcomer to confident battler in one collection. Ihara's art brings the energy of the Pokémon games to the page, with fast-paced battle sequences, expressive character designs, and comic relief alongside the adventure. Along the way, Hareta befriends fellow Trainers, rescues Pokémon in trouble, and learns what it means to work as a team with the creatures by his side. Each volume builds on the last, deepening the bonds between Hareta and his Pokémon while introducing new rivals and Legendary Pokémon. Fans will enjoy spotting familiar locations reimagined in manga form, while newcomers can jump in without prior knowledge. Rounding out the set is a bonus collectible poster. Printed in the original right-to-left Japanese manga format, this collection is a fun, fast read for reluctant readers and devoted Pokémon fans alike.
