Video Research's weekly top-ten anime tables for the Tokyo area, January 2015 to late October 2026, with every regular Pokémon episode row and a yearly summary of weeks listed and ratings

How it’s built

1. All 619 weekly pages of the agency's ranking archive for the period were collected and the Pokémon rows extracted.

What we assumed

Nothing. The figure is used as published.

Sanity check

A September 2018 row at 3.0% matches the figure a press report gave for that month.

The values

• Rows file: archive-R/videor_pokemon_rows_and_yearly_stats.json
• N regular rows: 144

Some detail is too fine to show here; it is kept in the trainer’s notes.
