Pokemon UK and Pokemon USA become The Pokemon Company International

According to a report from WorldScreen.com:

“Pokemon USA, based in Seattle and New York, and London-based Pokemon UK, are unifying their operations under the banner of The Pokemon Company International.”

The new president of The Pokemon Company International is Kenji Okubo, prior president of Pokemon USA, who will report to the company’s worldwide headquarters in Japan. In a statement from Okubo:

“The Pokemon offices in North America and Europe work closely together on a daily basis. As the Pokemon brand continues to thrive around the world, this change will ensure our worldwide reach, and the connection between our offices, is reflected in our name.”

The Pokemon Company International is responsible for brand management, licensing, marketing, the Pokemon Trading Card Game, the animated TV series, home entertainment, the Pokemon Trading Figure Game and the official Pokemon website, outside of Asia.

    • Sorry for not saying this sooner but I only just noticed you said you wanted to “submit an idea”. I don’t know what exactly you mean by this, but if it’s something like a tip for a new game or a design for a new Pokémon then I should tell you that most game developers, including Nintendo, do not accept unsolicited ideas due to the legal ramifications.

      I know you were trying to contact The Pokémon Company International, not Nintendo, but I believe they will tell you the same thing. The people you would want to speak to about such an idea would be Gamefreak as they are the people who develop the games but as a Japanese company that only adds a language barrier problem.

  1. these are my ideas please let me know what you think about it

    – You will be challenged by a tough ‘unnamed’ trainer, at the end of every region before you can enter the battle plane
    – You will constantly fight for the apporval to become a member of the Elite 4
    – You can have your own gym and choose from a wide assortment of traps for your gym, and can match them to the pokemon type you are using.
    As well, this is great for Wi-Fi. This way you can battle other gym leader’s and their gym’s from around the world.
    – also you might create a new region and if you have beaten all the gym leaders and the elite four and the champion of that region you can go back to the region before the newest (Unova would that be)
    with an battle plane that gets harder the further you get back to other regions

  2. me and my two best friends have been making a pokemon card set. we have made quite a lot and are still not done. please send me a email because we would love to have them published. thank you.
