Pokemon is a direct plagiarization from Palworld and has AI generated assets.

[Cranky]

Ever since the late 90's, the concept of Pals was extremely popular, but was hijacked and absorbed by Gamefreak. I have fond memories of playing Pokemon Red, Blue and Yellow and my childhood was fabulous. These official releases were later discovered to be ideas based on Pals. I had no idea at the time and now my enjoyment feels cheap and a lie.

I really don't get why Nintendo felt the need to overuse a whole bunch of unity assets in their games and pawn them off as their own. It'd have been nice if they maybe at least gave credit to the authors and maybe used some kind of artwork of their own, instead of taking ideas from a indie developer that was entirely grassroots and never given the opportunity to launch their idea until 2024.

Once the world of Pals was released, it brought tears to my eyes. I'm unsure if any of you dear readers feel the same?

Come on bruh!

Come up with a better bait than that.

[GespenstKAF]

Sounds legit

[Kussin]

But what about Dragon Quest? It stole all the Ideas from Pokeworld and Palmon before they even released! Such a shame!

[Grand Captain Speedy Dash]

At least better than some of the bait I've seen.

Dragon Quest at the time didn't have a license to publish, but they sort of just did. Pals existed long before DQ.

This isn't bait, I'm dead serious.

This is the official canon narrative now.

[The Former]

Once upon a time, Pals married Pokemon and Pokemon married Pals. There was no distinction between them.

[Teratus]

Meh bait.

Gotta use some truth if you want good bait.

Like how new pokemon games reuse assets from older (and significantly better) pokemon games and still manage to to produce a final product that looks like complete garbage and barely functions.

Poor Gamefreak, you just don't know how to make 3D games..
Should have taken Pokemon down the Octopath Traveller road instead, cause holy crap would a pokemon game in that style be amazing.

But nah.. you went the open world 3D road instead and surprise surprise.. it was complete garbage.

Pokemon Stole Palworld ideas and made it 100000x worse. Hope Gamefreak gets closed down and Pokemon dies.

I remember when I first saw a sheep and thought "That looks a lot like Lamball, the Pal" then I learnt the horrible truth, farmers had plagiarised and used free ai assests to make lamball looking copies called sheep.

The thing is, deceased birds are being repurposed as drones.

No, I think birds begin as corpses to be used for drones.
