What this is
How many of Nintendo's current Pokémon trademark recordations with US Customs name The Pokémon Company International as an authorised user: 46 of 70. TPCi is never the owner.
How it’s built
- Every version of every Pokémon-related record in US Customs' public recordation database was downloaded: 778 versions covering 200 distinct record numbers.
- Current trademark records owned by a Nintendo company were kept and de-duplicated by record number, leaving 70.
- Each record's list of authorised users was searched for TPCi: 46 name it, as an affiliate in all but one; the other 24 list only Nintendo companies or nothing.
What we assumed
Nothing. The figure is used as published.
Sanity check
All 24 records without TPCi were last recorded or renewed before March 2021, and every one after July 2021 includes it, so the split follows dates rather than marks.
The values
- Versions read: 778
- Current nintendo owned TMKs deduplicated by record number: 70
- Naming TPC and TPCi: 46
- Not naming: 24
Some detail is too fine to show here; it is kept in the trainer’s notes.
