Hello!

I'm struggling to find information about official Japanese Pokémon guide books of the first games. I'm looking for them on Amazon and Yahoo auctions but it's difficult to understand which one is official and which is not. I saw a page on Bulbapedia about guide books but it's only about American one. Therefore I'm asking for your help!

Currently, I own this guide book which, I believe, is the first ever released about Pokémon back in 1996 and should be official:

Further, I've purchased these two guides of Pokémon Gold/Silver:

But I have yet to understand whether they are official or not (I can't read Japanese). After Pokémon exploded, plenty of publishers started to release Pokémon guide books---on website I count at least 4 Gold/Silver guide books!

Does someone have a complete list?

Thanks!
