What this is
Pokémon's places in Video Research's Kids/ex survey of October 2025: Captain Pikachu was the 3rd most liked of 177 characters among Tokyo-area children aged three to twelve, at 57.2%, and the TV series 6th, at 53.1%.
How it’s built
- Read from Video Research's January 2026 press release, which reports a tablet survey of 584 parents in the Tokyo area ticking the characters their child likes.
What we assumed
Nothing. The figure is used as published.
Sanity check
Captain Pikachu was also 3rd the year before, and among boys the TV series rose from 7th to 5th.
The values
- Girls: no Pokémon row in top 10
- Sample: 584
- Characters surveyed: 177
Some detail is too fine to show here; it is kept in the trainer’s notes.
