From some of the things I read it was behind a paid patreon. This likely brought the hammer down extra fast.
I'll be shocked if they don't DMCA the game itself soon.
It's an original game with original content. Nothing about the mechanics in it are patented by Nintendo or anything.
Nintendo are incredibly litigation-happy, though. They'll at least try. Calling it now.
I heard on the radio that the 3d mesh of pals and mons were identical.
I doubt they can unless Palworld literally stole models from Pokemon. While some of the designs are pretty blatantly copied, if they can't prove the devs copied directly from them there's not much of a case
