Creatures Inc is the company that is one of the three main owners of The Pokemon Company, along with Nintendo and GameFreak. Creatures Inc is also responsible for bringing players the Pokemon Trading Card Game and other spinoff titles of the franchise. They also own the Pokemon CG Studio, that creates 3D models for all types of Pokemon.
Although Ishihara has stepped down from the CEO role at Creatures Inc., he still retains the position over at The Pokemon Company. At the moment, this change should not bring that big of an impact to the franchise. It will be exciting to see what Creatures Inc. can accomplish under new leadership.
Creatures Inc. own a third of every Pokémon trademark and copyright, as well as around a third of The Pokémon Company.
