TL;DR Summary

The Pokémon Company has responded to allegations of copyright infringement by Palworld, a game with monster-catching elements similar to Pokémon, by stating that they have not granted permission for the use of Pokémon intellectual property or assets in the game and intend to investigate and take appropriate measures to address any infringement. While some have accused Palworld of plagiarizing Pokémon, lawyers suggest that Nintendo and the Pokémon Company may struggle to win a court case due to distinguishable monster designs and gameplay differences. The statement is seen as a reassurance to stakeholders, but the situation may prompt further action from Nintendo in the future.
