Main series (including Coloseum and XD) on the Top. They make a huge amount of money, and are the progenitors of EVERYTHING below it.

Side Games: Similar to the main series, just not as profitable or infuential.

Manga:Where do I start? Satoshi Tajiri said that the Adventures Manga resemble the world that he wants Pokemon to be. The Adventures Manga is greatly influental to the fanbase, and even the Main series to an extent. they are many Mangas, and i'm sure it makes lota of money.

TCG/Other Merchandise. Makes a lot of money and the TCG is responsible for the VGC.

The Anime:Just about all the older fans hate it, but as I stated earlier, allows Pokemon to sell much better. The anime is also responsible for Pokemon Yellow, and in turn the final battle in G/S/C/HG/SS. Without its base, any Tower will fall.

Including this one.
