What this is
Internal consistency test between two graded-count sources on different bases (conflict X-4). The ~500k Pikachu-2023 premise rests on the Pokemetrics claim, which GemRate-based totals now contest.
The values
- Pikachu over Charizard Mar2026 monthly times: 1.36
- Charizard over Pikachu cumulative 2023 times: ~2
- Implied Pikachu cumulative 2023: ~500,000
- Months to reach 500k at 136 per month: 3,676
- Years: 306
Some detail is too fine to show here; it is kept in the trainer’s notes.
Where it comes from
Our calculation from other figures in the trainer’s notes:

Show the working
- 136 / 100 = 1.36
- ~1,000,000 / ~2 = ~500,000
- 500,000 / 136 = 3,676 months = 306 years
