Pokémon


is a media franchise owned by The Pokémon Company, and created by Satoshi Tajiri in 1995. It is centered on fictional creatures called "Pokémon", which humans capture and train to fight each other for sport.
The franchise began as a pair of video games for the original Game Boy, developed by Game Freak and published by Nintendo. The franchise now spans video games, trading card games, animated television shows and movies, comic books, and toys. Pokémon is the second-most successful and lucrative video game-based media franchise in the world, behind only Nintendo's ''Mario'' franchise.
The franchise celebrated its tenth anniversary in 2006.〔(【引用サイトリンク】publisher = IGN )〕 Cumulative sales of the video games (including home console games, such as ''Hey You, Pikachu!'' for the Nintendo 64) have reached more than 200 million copies. In November 2005, 4Kids Entertainment, which had managed the non-game related licensing of Pokémon, announced that it had agreed not to renew the Pokémon representation agreement. Pokémon USA Inc. (now The Pokémon Company International), a subsidiary of Japan's Pokémon Co., now oversees all Pokémon licensing outside of Asia. As of 2013, the ''Pokémon'' media franchise has grossed revenues of ¥4 trillion worldwide (equivalent to US$ billion). The brand earned $2 billion in 2014 alone.
==Name==
The name ''Pokémon'' is the romanized contraction of the Japanese brand . The term ''Pokémon'', in addition to referring to the Pokémon franchise itself, also collectively refers to the 721 known fictional species that have made appearances in Pokémon media as of the release of the sixth generation titles ''Pokémon X'' and ''Y''. "Pokémon" is identical in both the singular and plural, as is each individual species name; it is grammatically correct to say "one Pokémon" and "many Pokémon", as well as "one Pikachu" and "many Pikachu". (However, ''Pokémon Red'', ''Blue'', and ''Yellow'' feature NPCs referring to the plurals of Clefairy and Diglett with an "s" at the end, shown "CLEFAIRYs" and "DIGLETTs", respectively. This was fixed in ''FireRed'' and ''LeafGreen''.)
