So, I am finally starting to reread everything, starting from RGB arc.
This is a great arc to start the entire series on. Being the first arc, this is probably the arc i've read the most (since I've been trying to reread everything since 2020).
The final battle is great, showing the growth of red and green (blue?) as a trainer by learning from each other. I've seen this arc being reviewed the most (and usually the only one, sadly) in youtube videos, and most of the time, they will say something along the lines of it being "dark". Sure, it is way darker than anime, but it's not as dark as what they claim it to be. Blue (green? the girl trainer) is also an interesting character, being a good trickster, with a phobia of flying-type pokemon (foreshadowing, wink-wink).
Overall, i will rate this arc a 9.5/10, which is actually unchanged from my previous rating of this arc.
Current ranking: RGB
