Pocket Monsters Diamond and Pearl Mangas (Sakai Takayuki)

It's finally here. Download at the bottom.

This took so ridiculously long to do. This is why translation TEAMS exist. What made this take even longer was that I decided to translate a lot of the SFX. Cleaning SFX from pages is a nightmare. Thankfully I decided only to do the easier ones, and sometimes kept them in just so you, as a reader, know for sure the text is actually SFX and not someone speaking. I also went through the pages I already translated and fixed some things up. Changing fonts, font sizes, fixing translation in general, adding SFX, etc.

google translate (translation 1)

deepl (translation 2)

romajidesu (translation 3)

thejadednetwork (translation 4, SFX only)

google search (translation 5, whenever nothing else was working, blindly searching proved useful)

Just for fun, this is the grand total of DLs these old links, as well as the 4 movie manga I translated a few months ago, had:
Old Volume 1 translation by Mooites: 204

My Volume 2 Chapter 1-4 translation: 114

Movie mangas 2-4 and 9 original size: 5

Movie mangas 2-4 upscaled: 0 (I know the word "upscale" is scary, but it really does make a world of difference)

Anyway, as for this manga itself. I'm not going to say a single thing at all. It's done, it's here, go read it!
