There is no shortage Pokémon content, but it seems that The Pokémon Company is preparing to produce even more spinoffs from the massive monster taming franchise. In addition to the main Pokémon games, fans have been treated to a multitude of projects designed to capture the spirit of the franchise within a unique context. Some notably successful spinoffs include the extremely popular Pokemon GOtake photos Pokémon Snapthe competitive Pokémon Tournamentand even apps designed to help people track sleep and brush their teeth.
Put VG247players are looking at several other Pokémon products in the coming years, as The Pokémon Company has opened a new development team simply titled Pokémon works. This division’s website specifies that its goal is purely focused on the Pokémon franchise as it will be developed”not just games but also services” as Pokémon home page. Other than these vague details, there’s nothing else to go on, leading to a lot of speculation about the purpose of The Pokémon Works.
What does Pokémon work on?
If only there was a detective who could solve this
To be clear, the Pokémon Works team could be developing anything, given the franchise’s wide range of products. If it’s not working in some kind of spinoff like Detective Pikachu or Pokémon Picross will focus on moving further into the services domain; The site specifically calls Pokémon home pagethen could be The Pokémon Company trying to make even more profit from lifestyle apps. As a brand, Pokémon has managed to find success in so many different industries that it’s hard to imagine a direction it won’t go in.
In fact, the creation of The Pokémon Works is an indication that the franchise shows no signs of stagnation or slowing down. With the recent launch of Pokemon Trading Card Game PocketEven more fans are discovering one of the series’ most successful creations, further stimulating the growth of the tabletop market. PokémonThe company’s success has often resulted from its strong cross-promotion synergies therefore, it makes sense to funnel more money into a team that can strengthen this aspect of the business.
The Pokémon Company is too big to fail
He is a true titan of the industry
I found some Pokémon‘The newer products are more misses than hits, and while I’m a die-hard fan of the series, I wonder if the franchise is in danger of stretching itself too thin. With the disastrous launch of Pokémon Scarlet/VioletI wonder if the company prioritized fewer projects if the results weren’t better. That said, there’s a good chance I’m completely underestimating the marketability of anything Pikachu related.
