They own all of the Pokemon characters. Any art using Pokemon characters is copyright infringement. Non-profit fan art using those characters is almost never fair use; it's just not worth addressing until it's more significant than a fan drawing Pikachu.

They probably would have sent the takedown regardless, but putting it behind a paywall was a huge red flag begging to be shut down even faster.
