A press report that 10.2 billion Pokémon cards were printed worldwide in the year to March 2025

How it’s built

1. Reported by SNKRDUNK Magazine, the publication of a Japanese resale marketplace, which says an official report by The Pokémon Company stated it.

What we assumed

Nothing. The figure is used as published.

Sanity check

No company page found states a yearly figure. 10.2bn equals 75.0 minus 64.8 exactly, and the same article's other 'official' figure is its own subtraction, so 10.2bn is likely calculated, not stated.

Where it comes from

The line in the source

An official report issued by The Pokémon Company (TPC) stated that over the 2024-25 fiscal year ... a total of 10.2 billion Pokémon TCG cards were printed worldwide.
