Maybe the "Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques"'s plan is to save us Muslims from Pokémon idolatry...

The "Khadim al-Haramayn al-Sharifayn" has spent $3.5 billion to buy Pokemon Go which he could have used to end the miseries of a million Muslim refugees* for decades. Had he chosen to do the latter, he would’ve optimized the happiness of only a few million Muslims. 

But since His Majesty had chosen to buy Pokemon Go, the 2 billion Muslims currently on Earth and the trillions upon trillions of future transhumanist beings that will exist in the cyberspace of Mark Zuckerberg and Elon Musk and the descendants of our intergalactic progeny could continue to have an incalculably astronomical amount of future happiness. 

Jeremy Bentham, who proposed that utilitarian ideas encouraged actions that lead to the greatest good for the greatest number, will be very pleased in his grave. 

*Roughly 80 million international migrants are Muslim, representing 29% of all people living outside their country of birth. By comparison, Muslims were about 25% of the world's total population in 2020, making Muslim identity a little more common among migrants than in the overall population.
