TL;DR Summary

Nexus Mods, a major mod distribution site, has preemptively stated that it will not host any Pokémon-themed mods for the game Palworld due to the risk of legal action from Nintendo. This decision comes in light of Palworld's similarities to the Pokémon franchise and Nintendo's history of aggressively pursuing legal challenges against fan-made content.
