How to use this report
- Price check. BV puts one new followed link from pokemon.com at $625 (level A), priced on a blend of link types (A 49% · B 28% · C 15% · D 8%): $312 to an unrelated site (×0.5), $781 to a same-topic site (×1.25). A followed editorial link (level A) would be worth up to $963 before relevance. A quote far above $1,204 for a level A link pays for what BV does not measure.
- Qualification and risk. Its Site Strength is 80 / 100; the link it usually gives is mostly level A — counted (an editorial citation).
- Traffic reality check. Set any traffic claim beside the Sept 2026 estimate: 18.8M monthly visits, 60% from organic search (11.3M). Visits rose 4.3% from Jul 2026 to Sept 2026. Its top keyword by Visits (est.) is “pokemon”, about 368.1K a month; the ad value beside it is the whole market's.

Limitations: what this report does not show
- No link on this publication has been audited yet, so nothing here describes how its links behave.
- pokemon.com gives more than one kind of link (A 49% · B 28% · C 15% · D 8%), so BV prices a blend of them: an editorial link there would be worth $963 and a guest or sponsored one $482, before relevance.
