Saying Pokémon is a popular franchise is actually underselling how truly big the series is, so knowing that Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl did well isn’t earth-shattering news. However, it is still impressive learning how well a Pokémon does on streaming platforms, including Twitch.
Gamesight compiled the total hours viewed for all recent Pokemon games on Twitch during each games’ launch week, including the recently released Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl. Both of those games are remakes of the fourth generation of Pokémon games simply known as Diamond and Pearl. Based on the data Gamesight compiled, Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl had 18.4 million hours watched in its first week.
Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl had one million more total hours than Sword and Shield had on its launch week in Twitch. Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl had an average of over 99 thousand viewers, peaked at 252 thousand viewers, and the games were streamed for over 388 thousand hours in its first week.
The Pokémon games have increasingly become more and more popular to stream, with each major release making headways on all streaming platforms. It is still impressive how much better Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl did when compared to its most recent predecessor, probably revealing how popular the fourth generations of Pokémon games. Both games already have the biggest launch sales for the Nintendo Switch in Japan.
