Not only that Nintendo practically own Pokemon IP, its also have part in Pokemon Company and in Niantic itself, also whole idea of Pokemon Go was started buy Iwata.


From the game's announcement event where even miyamoto was present and talking about the project:

"To tell you the truth, I have been working on this project for about two years along with Nintendo's Mr. Iwata, and I really hoped we could make the announcement together. That desire is part of why I decided to hold this conference today."
The Pokémon Company will act as a partner with Niantic, Inc. to move forward with the creation of Pokémon GO.
Not just that, but one more company—Nintendo—has also joined us as a partner on this project.
So today, I would like to talk about this project that Niantic, Inc., Nintendo, and The Pokémon Company are working on."

Were they talking about Google or some other partner/company?
