A while ago, VIZ released the series, Pokemon Adventures, but they canceled it after the seventh volume due to poor sales. A company from Singapore, Chuang Yi, now releases Pokemon Adventures, but its extremely hard to obtain the series, because they don't do shipping to the U.S. Here's a link to the sight, http://www.chuangyi.com.sg/new/english.php?w=1. I have found many sites, or should I say people, that sell this series, but they're all paypal and the site's are also pretty shady. What I'm trying to say is that could someone please tell me where I can get any chuang yi manga without using paypal.
Thanks.

well on the page concerning the manga in question they putted up the ISBN-code for each volume,so you can use that code at your local bookstore to make them order it since the linking between a bookstore and the ISBN number makes it easier to get these books even when there so called undeliverable in a region!personally i can't give you a 100% garanteu on it but i think it might be the best option for you to get it without online-payment methods.



but can somebody also say if chuang yi is a good publisher or not since i might wana get fmp: sigma from them!?

Thanks for the help! Chuang Yi is a pretty good publisher, their manga resembles Japanese manga than American, because they have a cover flap. They do flip their titles though, so you'll have to get used to reading left to right. About two years ago I got a shipment of about seven manga, so I know what to expect. Their used to be a website that sold these titles, but it went out of business. Now I really want to finish the series that I started, but first I have to do more research.

I think I've found a reliable site Very Happy , though you do have to send a check to them. I'm so happy right now, I might just have to open my wallet and go on a little shopping spree. They don't only have pokemon adventures, you guys should check the link above, because they have many unlicensed titles, like slam dunk (though that just got licensed, but the volumes won't come out for a while.) Here's the link http://bookweb.kinokuniya.co.jp/indexohb.cgi?AREA=04
