2nd Logo (July 18, 2003-2006)
Logo: We see the text "The Pokémon Company" in a white background, just like in the previous logo. Copies of the letters, in a --yellow gradient, zoom out briefly in front of the text, while multiple rings appear growing out from each side, each having the interlocked texts "Communication", "Friendship", "Adventure", "Challenge" and "Happiness" in this specific order.

3rd Logo (May 10, 2019, November 24, 2021)
Logo: On a black background, a 3D model of the Earth fades in spinning, eventually getting faster before turning into a Poké Ball as a shining effect appears. The ball shakes once as its center lights up, making the ball disappear in a flash of light, revealing the 3D text "The Pokémon Company" in its corporate font, which slowly zooms out.

Alternate Descriptive Video Transcription: Earth transforms into a Poké Ball that flashes with light, The Pokémon Company.

Variant: There is a variant that reads "The Pokémon Company International" instead. This variant also has 2021 copyright information on the bottom.

Technique: CGI by yU+co.

Music/Sounds: A "bling" sound effect as the globe turns into the Poké Ball, followed by the iconic sound effect (a warbling noise, followed by a click) when a Poké Ball is used in the games. The TPCI variant plays the ending theme of the reel over the sound effects.

Availability:
 * Seen on the company's first (and so far only) live-action film, Pokémon: Detective Pikachu.
 * It can also be seen on yU+co's website.
 * The TPCI variant appears on a The Pokémon Company International reel titled "Core Values of Pokémon".
