If OP is talking about the creator of Pokemon Satoshi Tajiri, Just because they have the same name it is not always like that, But maybe OP was right about thinking something weird as this, Hey we don't simply know Who's Satoshi Nakamoto really is, And there might be a chance that he was really the creator or a member of Gamefreak and just used Tajiri's name as a code, way,
I don't remember it perfectly and can't find it in my history but I remember reading an article that said there are more than 50 000 (5000 sounds too low and 500k to high) persons named Satoshi in Japan.
How many of those might be working in IT, Banks, Finance etc

That is I think was funny about it, And why would OP would conclude something like this, April Fool had already past and maybe he still isn't recovered from it, But let's look at it as a comedic act of OP and he is not that serious about all this, That is why I conclude my own version of silly theory about Satoshi, And another thing is Pokemon Version's every given year would sure expand and so does Its Monsters in the game the Pokemon was clearly increasing in numbers and lump it with bitcoin that is every year increasing its price value, OP can really think of silly ways to make his theory, which is I find it silly but entertaining at the same time.
