What this is
How ShoPro describes the scope of its Pokémon division's licensing work: managing the rights for merchandise within Japan.
How it’s built
- Read from ShoPro's licensing division brochure, which lists the Pokémon division's two jobs as anime production and the merchandising rights window, and states the domestic limit.
What we assumed
Nothing. The figure is used as published.
Sanity check
Of the character divisions ShoPro names, Pokémon is the only one limited to Japan, and the brochure does not mention publishing.
