    They’re going to lose. It’s only in the style of Pokemon. I know a handful of them look really similar but you can’t copyright cartoon dragons.

    Why now? They already made their millions off the game and the hype is mostly over. Weird decision.

    Back when Palworld came out, I would have loved for Nintendo to sue them just because. But ever since, Nintendo has made one L decision after another, so I hope that Pocketpair wins somehow

        As I tried to outline in my comment, I am no longer of that opinion. Valid comment nonetheless

      Avoiding Streisand effect and buding a case takes time. I hope they get good lawyers cause I don’t think Nintendo would bring the case if they couldn’t win it.
