This short issue of the Magical Pokemon Journey shojo(girls) manga has two stories in it:
(1)Eevee... Pokemon Genius!: In this issue, its the arrival of Hazel's rival: Coconut! Apparantly this new girl, whom her Eevee states is 'a scientific genius', is the granddaughter of Granpa, much to everyone's suprise. Coconut's Eevee seems to dislike Pikachu and Clefairy's lack of smarts, and continues to make the two Pokemon feel dumb by giving them simple questions that they can't even answer. Coconut, like Hazel, also has a crush on Almond, who likes to do nothing else but catch Pokemon and fish. Soon Hazel begins to get angry at Coconut, who claims that she's staying in the countryside because of too much 'city stress'. Coconut then decides to settle their little rivalry with a contest that involves chocolate...
(2)Panic At The Cherry Blossom Festival: Hazel, Almond, Granpa, Coconut, and the rest of the Pokemon go to a cherry-blossom festival, but soon a Dodrio(a triple-headed Pokemon) begins to go out of control, and Hazel and the gang must find a way to calm it down. Funny stuff ensues.
For such {an inexpensive} price, this issue of Magical Pokemon Journey is a great buy if you like comedy-shojo manga, or Pokemon. Yumi Tsukirino's drawing's are super-cute too; just take a look at Pikachu! :)
