Comment on Palworld devs confirm game changes due to the Nintendo / Pokemon lawsuit

From this patch onward, gliding will be performed using a glider rather than with Pals
How? Nintendo don’t own flying mounts surely. WoW did that ages ago and I am sure other games have as well.

Well, the mechanic is not a mount in the usual sense, but holding a flying Pal, as in you’re not saddling it but holding it and letting it slowly glide down.

Which might be the exact reason, given it’s created by Nintendo?

No, the patent involved is specifically covering Pokemon. Legends: Arceus, in particular, IIRC.
