Rules:
- 1: No spam or advertising. This basically means no linking to your own content on blogs, YouTube, Twitch, etc.
- 2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy "anti-woke" energy, you probably shouldn't be posting it here.
- 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

MODERATORS
You know that Nintendo is watching this game like a hawk, looking for any possible way they can do legal action.
I thought all of the IP was controlled by The Pokemon Company, which Nintendo owns a minority stake in. Shouldn't it be the Pokemon Company who is filing the DMCA takedown and taking legal action?
Nintendo is their publisher, so may have the responsibility for this sort of thing.
Really, cum, it's just the modder and not the game, so far.
Which is why they're watching like hawks. To make it not "so far".
