Relive Kanto Like Never Before
Pokémon Blue Adventures is a blend of the Pokémon Adventures manga (Volumes 1–3) and the classic Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen experience—turning Blue’s story into a fully playable manga journey.Explore a Kanto faithfully recreated from the manga, now darker, more strategic, and immersive, where progression requires investigation, planning, and thoughtful decisions. With higher difficulty, level caps, quests, and a crafting system, every step forward has to be earned.
Classic at its core, modern in its mechanics, and faithful to the original work, this project is made for players who grew up with Pokémon—and for anyone who always wanted to experience Kanto in a more intense way. Built on the FireRed/LeafGreen foundation and expanded with mechanics from later generations, this is a tribute to 30 years of Pokémon.
A look at the Pokémon Adventures manga like never before—a journey of strategy, survival, and legacy.
The Definitive Kanto Experience
Forget the simple, colorful journey you remember. In Pokémon Blue Adventures, the story follows the steps of the calculating and relentless rival Blue Oak. The game embraces the more mature tone of the manga, where Team Rocket is a real threat and the world itself can be unforgiving.You can also choose to play as Daisy Oak, Professor Oak’s granddaughter. This choice is mostly visual, but attentive players may notice a few small differences along the journey.
