Pokémon Encyclopedia

This product is an official Pokémon encyclopedia published in the Portuguese language. The Pokémon brand originated in Japan in 1996 through a collaborative creation by Satoshi Tajiri and Ken Sugimori at Game Freak, alongside Nintendo and Creatures Inc. Over several decades, it has evolved into the world's most valuable media franchise.

Historically, the global rights are managed by The Pokémon Company, a joint venture between Nintendo, Game Freak, and Creatures. For the publication of books and guides in different markets, the brand licenses its intellectual property to major publishing houses. In Portugal, this specific edition is published by Penguin Random House Grupo Editorial, which handles the localized translation, distribution, and manufacturing within the European market. Manufacturing typically occurs in the country of the publisher or neighboring regional printing hubs.
