The whole game was intended from the very beginning to thumb their nose at Nintendo, just so happens that it got really popular and sold a ton of copies because it isn't difficult to make a better Pokémon game than The Pokémon Company does, even when the entire game in question is a shitpost.

Im not about to sit here and tout the game that gives Lugia a gun as a game better than Pokemon, fuck no 😭😭😭

I've changed my statements (see above) about the lawsuit but this game is DEADASS just a higher quality newgrounds game similar to "Mario with a gun/bazooka/truck"

A shitpost is a better way to describe this. I simply refuse to look past the quirky, cartoony, 3d monsters HOLDING WHOLE ASS GLOCKS n RIFLES, to suspend my disbelief just enough to enjoy whatever this game has to offer. It hits these levels of Uncanniness with me that I severely dont like and bothers me for whatever reason.

And that's fine, different strokes and all. I personally find it highly goddamn hilarious and enjoy playing it with my gaming group. I just think it's a little disingenuous to say "palworld devs did nothing to prevent this, sad" when the whole original concept was basically designed around parodying Pokémon. They knew what they were doing.

Why didnt they just file under Parody law then??
