Pokémon merchandising has been handled by various distributors in the United States. When the franchise debuted, merchandising was handled by [[Hasbro]]. Originally, toys and merchandise were simply imported from Japan, but later Hasbro created their own toys and games for distribution in the US. In 2004, rights passed to [[Jakks Pacific]], which produced their own merchandise as well. As of January 2013, merchandise will be handled by [[Tomy]], which will import Japanese merchandise once again. | Pokémon merchandising has been handled by various distributors in the United States.
