If you mess around, you’re gonna find out when it comes to modding Nintendo characters into popular games–especially one in Palworld, which already has heavy Pokemon inspirations. YouTuber ToastedShoes apparently found this out on X (formerly known as Twitter).
Spotted by IGN, ToastedShoes posted on the social media site that “Nintendo has come for me” while screenshotting that his Pokemon mod teaser video–in which Misty has a gun–for Palworld was taken down by a copyright owner. It’s unclear whether it was Nintendo or The Pokemon Company that actually filed the claim. However, the Australian has decided to still release a YouTube video today (seen below) showcasing his Pokemon mod for the survival game.
ToastedShoes says the Pokemon mod won’t be available publicly for the time being. “We want to release it for free to everyone, however due to Nintendo sending a DMCA over the last tweet, we want to tread lightly for the time being,” ToastedShoes posted on X.
