No.  Nintendo owns Pokemon.  It belongs to them completely, as do all the licensing rights.  Nintendo also owns controlling interest in Media Create, the company that develops Pokemon for Nintendo.  It would depend upon the terms of the contract, of course, but it's most likely that Nintendo receives the vast majority of the profit from the games.

That's Game Freak and Creatures Inc.  Media Create is a sales tracking firm in Japan.

I was so confused for a sec.

Bwah, so was I.  That's the wildest brain crash I've ever had.  I have no idea why I typed Media Create.  Still, everything else is correct.

Really, that's kind of awesome.  I wonder if I'm coming down with a rare brain disease.
