I don't think Pokemon is first-party since that IP and the dev studios fall under The Pokemon Company, whereas games like Mario and Zelda are developed by studios within Nintendo itself. I could be wrong.

Edit: I just looked it up, and yep, Nintendo only owns 33% of The Pokemon Company.

If they ain't first party, they're certainly close enough that you couldn't tell the difference.

A completely different (sub)company and dev team make those games. Nintendo just owns part of it.
