What this is
Pokémon cards made each year, from the company's running totals: about 10.2bn in the year to March 2025 and 10.0bn in the year to March 2026.
How it’s built
- The company's published totals: 64.8bn by March 2024, over 75bn by March 2025 and over 85bn by March 2026.
- Each year is the difference between two totals.
What we assumed
- The 'over' totals can be subtracted.They are stated as floors and the rounding is not given, so each yearly figure is approximate.
Sanity check
75 − 64.8 = 10.2 and 85 − 75 = 10.0. These count cards made, not sold.
Where it comes from
Our calculation from other figures in the trainer’s notes:

- 75 - 64.8 = 10.2
- 85 - 75 = 10.0
