For long term low risk investment I would say Silph is the choice. They generally play it safe and given the ubiquity of their products (the pokeball for example) I don't expect they will ever take so much of a hit that you'll lose long term on a rate greater than the overall market. Devon on the other hand has quite a few high end products that have industrial uses but an improving tech is more likely to make those obsolete and they may or may have the brand recognition in their respective markets to hold value quarter over quarter and year over year. Devon is also more of a niche brand within their production of pokeballs but does the average consumer actually feel the need to have a net ball or nest ball or a luxury ball?
I would argue Devon's more likely to come out with a new product in a given market cycle and if it flops, its a good time to buy into Devon since they will soon have another product cycle and are more likely to have a wild fluctuation and therefore a short sale will get you a greater return on your dollar.
On the other hand its a good idea to have a diverse portfolio. Investing in lots of different industries (whoever runs the Pokemarts themselves, or the cruise company running the SS Anne, any of the Conglomerated Agricultural business buying the Miltank farms[I believe they also produce the Berry Fertalizers but I don't have any canon to back me, any construction company not located in Vermilion City). Honestly, you probably don't need to think that much about it. Unless your goal is to be a day trader, get a financial advisor to make you an IRA or your invest in your company's 401k and let someone else think about this stuff for you. If you want something with FAR less risk, ask about treasury notes which are backed by the government instead of investe in the market itself; lower yield but solid and low risk.
