It's not just the USA who doesn't get Pokémon calendars- Canada too. Instead both countries get calendars of crap franchises such as Twilight & Glee and no awesome anime series like Pokémon. However if you're lucky enough you can find Pokémon calendars at a Japanese bookstore. The local Japanese bookstore in my city is selling the 2011 Pokémon calendar.
