Viz publishes the American version of the Pokemon Adventures manga series, which began in 1999 and is still running today. As part of Pokemon's 20th anniversary, Viz is bringing Hidenori Kusaka and Satoshi Yamamoto, the creators of Pokemon Adventures, to San Diego Comic-Con.

The Pokemon Cookbook: Easy and Fun Recipes will be available on December 6th, just a few weeks before Christmas.
