Nintendo is seemingly filing takedown requests against Pokemon mods for Palworld.
Yesterday, just a few days after Palworld launched into early access last week, we 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:quickly saw a Pokemon mod overhauling the game's creatures with 'mons themselves. People were talki♋ng about Palworld as 'Pokemon with guns' before launch, and now they've truly delivered on that vi✨sion with Pikachu and others in the new survival game.
It seems like Nintendo and 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:The Pokemon Company aren't fans. According to the tweet below from YouTuber Toasted, Nintendo or The Pokemon Company has taken aim at his video promoting the Palworld mod, and the vid🌃eo has 🌞been taken offline as a result of the copyright claim from the company.

One Palworld mod♋ding community even banned 🌠Pokemon mods, such was its fear of Nintendo's retaliation. That seems to be the case for the NexusMods community just below - the Reddit post claims NexusMods staff have begun removing Pokemon🧔 mods for Palworld entirely.

Interestingly, lawyer Richard Hoeg has weighed in on the original video from Toasted being taken down🔯. The lawyer believes that although the mod itself is clearly infringing on Pokemon's copyright, he thinks it does a "decent job" of showing just how different the core game of Palworld actually is from your sta🧸ndard Pokemon game.
Interestingly, though the mod itself is likely infringing, I think it does a decent job showing just how different base Palworld looks. I still wouldn’t be eaౠger to bring a legal claim on the game itself if I’m Nintendo/Pokemon. //t.co/7geWa0m7kb
At the core, Hoeg's argument is bang on: Palworld is very much a survival game, with some RPG stylings layered on top, whereas Pokemon games are fundamentally RPGs. We even wrote yesterday about why ജwe ♉need to stop calling Palworld 'Pokemon with guns,' and it all ☂hinges on the survival and management genre trappings of 🦂the new game.
On the other hand, Pokemon's former legal head has weighed in on Palꦅwღorld, and called it 🥂"the us🐽ual ripoff nonsense that I would see a thousand times a year." That's pretty damning stuff, and from the head of Pokemon's legal department, no less.
