How much events at Japan's Pokémon Card Gym stores grew between 2019 and the year to May 2026

300,000 2019 → year to May 2026

EstimateOur calculation from two company statements. An estimate. It counts events, not players.

What this is

How much events at Japan's Pokémon Card Gym stores grew between 2019 and the year to May 2026: about 2.3 times, or roughly 14% a year.

How it’s built

  1. TPC's figure of about 300,000 events a year in 2026 divided by its figure of about 130,000 for 2019.
  2. The yearly rate spreads that over the roughly six years between the middle of each period.

What we assumed

  • Both figures count the same thing.Both are TPC statements about events at its card-gym stores, but they come from different pages and the wording is not identical.
  • 'About' means within about 5% either way.On that reading the multiple lies between about 2.1 and 2.5.

Sanity check

300,000 divided by 130,000 is 2.3.

Where it comes from

Our calculation from other figures in the trainer’s notes.

Show the working
  • 2019: 130,000
  • Year to May 2026: 300,000
  • Multiple: 2.31
  • Multiple rounding band: 2.11 to 2.52
  • Years between midpoints: 6.3
  • Implied annual growth: 0.141
  1. 300,000/130,000 = 2.31
  2. band 285,000/135,000 = 2.11 to 315,000/125,000 = 2.52 (約 read as ±5% on 30万, ±4% on 13万)
  3. 2.308^(1/6.3) − 1 = 0.141
  4. 300,000/1,800 = 167
