Pokemon Boss Says Franchise Could "Go Downhill" If Company Loses Its Focus
Briefly

The Pokemon Company, led by Tsunekazu Ishihara, boasts a singular focus on Pokémon and believes in its enduring success. During an interview on Pokémon Day, Ishihara emphasized that discipline and continuous fan engagement are keys to longevity. He expressed confidence that with the right approach, the company could celebrate its 50th or even 100th anniversary. He also noted the advantages of being privately held, as it allows them to reinvest profits solely into Pokémon, avoiding the distractions of shareholders. The company recently announced new projects, marking ongoing commitment to the franchise.
If we continue focusing on our mission, Pokemon can probably continue to its 50th or 100th anniversary. But if we become complacent and go with the flow, that's when Pokemon will go downhill.
Pokemon is the only thing we do at the Pokemon Company. So whatever profit we make from Pokemon gets reinvested in Pokemon.
