Nintendo didn't make Pokémon Go! They aren't making that much off of it.

And it's all about protecting your IP. Doesn't matter that the people doing it are offering their projects for free, they still aren't licensed to do so.

Am I the only one who isn't surprised?
It's copyright infringement. Just because they're giving it out for free doesn't change that they're marketing a product with a license they don't own.

Nintendo isn't being money grubbing tyrants. Pokemon is their second most valuable IP, and they don't even have full ownership of it. They're not going to be okay with this.
You don't release your ambitious fan product 3 months before Nintendo's new, big Pokemon titles and then expect them to be totally okay with it.

People need to stop acting like every move a corporation makes is just them being evil and greedy, like this is some kind of movie...

Don't be surprised when they do it to Insurgence too when it's complete version comes out soon too.

This took less time than I thought it would.



What a wonderful sight.

If only the sprites would change color like Arceus does. But whatevs.

So close to finishing this silly living dex. I'm feeling like breeding for a few shinies after I'm done. Should be...something.

17 versions of the One True Pokégod?

Im pretty sure that's some form of heresy.

No. I did get a lot of shiny ones while trading for them, but I just traded them for normal ones. I do have one shiny one tucked in Bank, and that one is enough.

Also Nintendo's really out in force in protecting its copyrights lately. You really have to wonder why since Pokemon GO's making them so much money; have they fallen into the greed trap Konami did?

It's not about money they have to do this to keep their copyrights/trademarks strong.

[ZeoRangerV]

Have to agree, good on Nintendo for protecting their IP tbh.

[Klonoahedgehog]

I don't really mind Nintendo protecting they're IP like this, it just bugs me that they don't consider endorsing the game and releasing them on the eshop or something. I mean Capcom and Sega do that same thing! It's a weird world when Sega actually does what Nintendon't.
