Game Freak’s ties to Nintendo go back even before the studio started working on Pokemon games. The company’s first project was Quinty for the NES, followed by Yoshi a couple of years later. Pokemon has been Game Freak’s bread and butter for many years, though they’ve started to branch out with titles like Tembo the Badass Elephant (a game not on Nintendo platforms) and Giga Wrecker (currently just announced for PC). Still, Pokemon is very unlikely to leave the Nintendo family by appearing on competing platforms.
Game Informer spoke with Game Freak co-founder Junichi Masuda as part of a big feature in its latest issue. One topic brought up is who exactly owns Pokemon. It’s a bit tricky, but ultimately Masuda highlighted that the rights lie with three companies: Nintendo, Game Freak, and Creatures.
Masuda went on to talk about Game Freak’s relationship as a friendship:
> “Everyone really knows Nintendo; there is a familiarity with the brand, and they have that really strong brand and Pokemon being associated with that and being affiliated with that bring is very important.”
Game Informer did ask if Pokemon will ever appear on another platform (outside of mobile “side-games” presumably, which also aren’t developed by Game Freak). His answer, posted below, is mostly what you would expect.
> “With Pokemon, at least, we really feel it is really important to be with Nintendo, specifically with the Pokemon titles, so I don’t think that would ever happen.”
Game Freak, in partnership with Nintendo, has two new Pokemon games due out in November: Pokemon Ultra Sun and Pokemon Ultra Moon. A new entry in the franchise is also in development for Switch.

that makes sense, The Pokemon Company is jointly owned by Nintendo and Game Freak

Why did you make this post.
We all know Pokemon will never be on anything but Nintendo.
So what was the point of this shit?

>Nintendo ip won't appear on non Nintendo platforms

>Pokemon GO

This thread has about as much worth as confirming that Halo isn't gonna appear on Playstation.

They don't even have the option to do that.
Unless Creatures and Game Freak form a coup and buys out Nintendo's portion in The Pokemon Company, it won't happen.

Nintendo has more lawyers connection and money to buy their parts 1st also shit is more complicated when Creatures is co-owned by Nintendo and The Pokemon Company

Why do people think this. Creatures are an independent company. They just work really really close with Nintnedo.

Barely anyone except for the most delusional of 10-year-old Sony fans? At least as far as dedicated video game platforms go. Pokemon GO is already on mobile.
