The Pokemon Franchise is celebrating its 25th-year anniversary for the entire year of 2021, and what better way to mark the occasion than crossing an important milestone in the franchise\u2019s history. The franchise started as a game but has since expanded into many facets of media and entertainment, making it one of the most recognizable media franchises in the world. According to data presented by Safe Betting Sites<\/a>, The Pokemon Franchise all-time sales has reached $100B making it the most valuable media franchise of all time as of January 2021.<\/p>\n Pokemon, short for its Japanese title of Pocket Monsters, was first released as a game on Nintendo\u2019s handheld console GameBoy in 1996. Soon after, a Manga and Anime centred around the game was released and soon gained a significant amount of popularity. This is a break from the traditional life cycle of popular media brands commonly found in Japan of Animes being turned into games rather than the other way around.<\/p>\n Since then the franchise has successfully expanded into many other facets of entertainment such as movies and trading cards, creating an entire Pokemon Universe and generating enormous amounts of sales along the way. Betting Sites Australia has revealed that Pokemon\u2019s $100B all-time sales make it the most valuable media franchise in the world ahead of other icons such as Hello Kitty, Winnie the Pooh, Mickey Mouse and even the entire Star Wars Franchise.<\/p>\nPokemon – From Game to Media Franchise With All-Time Sales Of $100B<\/h2>\n
