Pokemon - Quest for Lance is a Pokémon manga starring "Gold" Richards on his traves across Johto and Hoenn. More specifically, it is based on HGSS and Emerald. Although it was made in America, it was created simultaneously in both American and Japanese and came out in Japan first. This method allows localisation and translation to occur during development so there will not be too much wait before the volume comes out in America. It was created at the same time as Paper Mario vs. Bowser, which led to the characters from Quest for Lance appearing in a volume of PMvB
