    It’s not for copyright infringement, it’s for patent infringement. Apparently when they made Legends Arceus, Nintendo patented the idea of pointing the camera at a monster and throwing stuff at it.

      Wasn’t there a N64 Pokemon game (Pokemon Safari?) Where you take photos of pokemon?

      I guess Nintendo quashed its own patent.

      That’d be pretty funny if that was the case, because Craftopia (Pocketpair’s first game, released before Legends Arceus was announced) also did the monster collection mechanic in the exact same way as Palworld.
