Art Feature: Pokemon Brands

[Crossroads Bulletin]

A mysterious company also under the Team Rocket Holdings umbrella, Zubat is rumored to be the company used for clandestine operations by the Team Rocket Holdings’ enigmatic CEO, Giovanni.

Designer Sebaastian de With, owner of San Francisco design shop Pictogram, has created a number of fun brands based on different Pokemon.

Since the Pokémon Corporate Personhood Act of 2015, as spearheaded by Professor OAK, Pokémon became free to start their own companies, mandating the design of Pokémon brand identities.
We were on the forefront of this radical development and designed several visual identities for Pokémon.

So if Pokemon owned their own companies, what would they sell? And what would their logos be? Sebaastian has designed brands for Zubat, Bulbasaur, Kakuna, Tentacool, Ditto and more, which you can view at Pictogram.
Bulbasaur is a relatively new but booming plant fertilizing company that has quickly become a consumer favorite. Some say the business is growing so rapidly it may soon evolve and flower into an entirely new business model.
