After weeks of behind-the-scenes negotiating, Walt Disney Co. today announced its intent to purchase the internationally successful Pokémon Company. The reported $47 billion deal comes mere months after Disney’s proposed acquisition of 21st Century Fox. The deal, which is still in its early stages of negotiation, is expected to finalize in early 2019, potentially closing earlier than the agreement with Fox.

The Japanese based company was originally established by the businesses Nintendo, Game Freak, and Creatures in 1998 and has since achieved world-wide fame. Since the release of the widely popular Pokémon Go in July of 2016, the annual net income for the Pokémon Co. has skyrocketed, although licensed merchandising has seen only a marginal increase.

As it has done with its previous acquisitions of Lucasfilm Ltd. and Marvel Entertainment, The Pokémon Co. will become a subsidiary of The Walt Disney Co. What exactly this may mean for the future of The Pokémon Co. one can only surmise. But with the success of Disney’s other acquisitions, it is not hard to believe that the Pokémon brand will continue to thrive.

    whale spotted in illinois river A humpback whale was spotted near Morris IL in the Illinois River today. The sighting comes just days after 2 Great White Sharks were seen frolicking in the same area. While not impossible, it does seem unlikely. It is thought that the whale may have followed the sharks as they sometimes do in the wild. The whale would of had to travel over 1250 miles to get to this location. The Marine Biologist Association will be in town for a full investigation. Until we have answers, we are asking folks to keep their pontoons and fishing boats docked.

    two great white sharks found swimming in mississippi river near saint louis, missouri. While it is not entirely impossible, it is incredibly uncommon for salt water dwelling creatures to stay for lengthy periods of time in fresh water. However, two Great White Sharks have managed to survive the trip and make their way up the Mississippi River somehow. Believed to have started as a mating couple, the two are assumed to have swam the 920 mile journey from the mouth of the Mississippi River that is connected to the Gulf Of Mexico. Officials in Saint Louis have contacted the Missouri Conservation Department and will likely have a team in the river soon to capture the two lost sharks.
