The Pokémon Company (株式会社ポケモン, Kabushiki-gaisha Pokemon) is a Japanese company responsible for brand management, production, publishing, marketing, and licensing of the Pokémon franchise, which consists of video game software, a trading card game, anime television series, films, manga, home entertainment products, merchandise, and other ventures. It was established through a joint investment by the three companies holding the copyright of Pokémon: Nintendo, Game Freak, and Creatures. It was founded on April 23, 1998, originally to operate the Pokémon Center stores in Japan before expanding to the entire franchise in October 2000 as it rebranded to its current name. The company is headquartered in the Roppongi Hills Mori Tower in Roppongi, Minato, Tokyo. The company has separate subsidiaries that handle operations in different parts of the world, with the Pokémon Company International supporting the territories outside Asia and being responsible for brand management, licensing, marketing, the Pokémon Trading Card Game, the animated TV series, home entertainment, and the official Pokémon website on the territories outside Asia. The Pokémon Company also handles the publishing of all Pokémon video games since 2001 alongside Nintendo. The Pokémon Company is mostly responsible for marketing and funding, while Nintendo handles the distribution of the titles in Japan and outside it. Both companies work together in localization, production, QA, and other aspects. The company is solely responsible for publishing and licensing mobile Pokémon titles, unlike console titles where it has help from Nintendo.

Raichu, Lucario, Charizard, and Garchomp are some of the most famous explorers there are, but their bonds with other have seriously dwindled over the years due to team leader Raichu's massive ego. They decide to disband after one last treasure hunt... But when they find the treasure, they're pushed into a rift to a parallel world! This world is filled with Pokemon unlike any they've ever seen before, Pokemon that are living in fear of a group of eldritch god known only as the "Olden Ones" who are soon to reawaken and devastate the land. The distortions in spacetime turn Raichu and Raichu's teammates back into their younger selves who have no memories of their future together, and the four are soon found in their diminutive states by an ambitious hero from this other world and their childhood friend. Together, they aim to seal the Olden Ones before they devastate the world and help Raichu's team return home, all while Raichu's team had to take a literal and metaphorical trip down memory lane as they regain their memories and confront just how and when they went wrong. ‖ fancast for a hypothetical PMD game.
