Estimated games revenue inside The Pokémon Company’s Tokyo company each year, 2021 to 2026. In the year to February 2026

This figure has been replaced. See An estimated range for The Pokémon Company’s revenue from games, by year to February 2020–2026.

What this is

Estimated games revenue inside The Pokémon Company’s Tokyo company each year, 2021 to 2026. In the year to February 2026: ¥136–275bn, or 26–52% of its revenue.

How it’s built

Added estimates for each source: Pokémon GO’s take, TCG Pocket, Pokémon Sleep, Pokémon UNITE and Japanese console sales.
Lows assume store fees are deducted and the lowest rates; highs assume gross booking, top rates and GO’s web store.
Divided by the company’s reported revenue, ¥531.4bn for the year to February 2026.

What we assumed

Each component comes from a separate estimate elsewhere in the research.The company reports one revenue line with no breakdown, so there is no direct figure to check against.
A payment from Nintendo for overseas console sales of up to ¥26bn is included only in the high case.The research gives no direct evidence for this payment or its rate.
Years with no new console game carry ¥3–12bn of older titles and add-ons.An assumed placeholder; the research gives no basis for the size.

Sanity check

TCG Pocket is most of it: excluding Pocket, games are only 7–23% of revenue in 2026. The range is wide, so the share is uncertain by a factor of two.
