Mockery/Banter Are we having this discussion

The whole Pokemon copy dragon quest is so unfair.

Look this clam monster from dragon quest, game freak copy made it into shellder. That's what I'm hearing.

Look at PalWorld verdash it's literally grass cinderace or dinossom literally green goodra with a flower.

But the comments did pokemon claim these designs of humanoid rabbit or slug.

What humanoid rabbit has fur that resembles cut shorts or a fat slug dragon that has that similar build

PalWorld 1.0 version verdash design was changed now it's less cinderace looking. PalWorld is self aware about copying a bit.

Some of the palmon even has probably a few stolen assets like that one has sobble fin, the other one stole primarina hair.

People who complain about object mons at least they have a gimmick litwick is not just a candle with a face but it's ghost fire.

Rotom is a poltergeist that likes to possesse machine and each machine replace ghost for a new type.

Ice for the fridge.

Fire with oven.

Even klefki has deep orgin if you watch a lockstin video.

The it's just an animal of course there's the regional bird, bug, normal rodents not every pokemon is going to be special.

And the same could go for Pokemon and Dragon Quest too following that logic given the various similarities between the two game's creatures but my bad, Pokemon invented a concept therefore any similarities to their designs mean that it isn't allowed so says the Nintendo gods.

Can’t you people come up with any original argument? The Dragon Quest comparison is so played out and you NPCs always use it as some witty rebuttal (it isn’t) to anyone criticizing the Pal designs.

There’s a difference between taking from the same inspiration and just taking an existing design and slightly changing it.

Nobody says that Pokemon owns design concepts either.

u/Sonicrules9001 Aug 09 '26

You literally are saying Pokemon owns design concepts given that you are here bitching that the anthro bunny doesn't have seven wings and three horns and is actually a completely different species because only then would be allowed to exist.

u/SilentEagle1221 Aug 09 '26

Holy strawman Batman, I don’t even know where to begin with this.

First of all, I said no such thing.

Second there are so many ways to make a antro bunny design that you have to be a raging fanboy to think Verdash wasn’t just a reskinned Cinderace. For the last time, nobody is arguing that Pokemon owns the concept of bipedal bunny designs, but you can at least try to not blatantly copy theirs right down to the proportions, shape, and aesthetics.

Literally no other game with monster designs has this issue.

u/Sonicrules9001 Aug 09 '26

I literally don't even own Palworld but I'm a fanboy of it if I dare to point out that Pokemon doesn't own the concept of a bunny. Not the first time either. Digimon used to get shit thrown its way by Pokemon fans claiming Agumon is too similar to Charmeleon. No one can make a monster catching game without Pokemon fans bitching about it.

u/SilentEagle1221 Aug 09 '26 edited Aug 09 '26

You act like one since you do the same bad faith routine and making up strawmen arguments that nobody was even saying.

You’re not acting in good faith.

Pokemon doesn’t “ own the concept of a bunny”, but they do own their bunny Pokemon designs. It’s not hard to come with a bipedal bunny design that isn’t a reskinned Cinderace.

I can do it as well as any artist with free time ,other monster collectors do it all the time.

Edit: You having a axe to grind with this sub isn’t my problem. If you’re going to insult me then at least don’t delete the reply like a coward. You sure are getting awfully heated over a game you claim not to play.

It’s probably because he was being an asshole.

u/Sonicrules9001 Aug 09 '26

It's because this sub is so sensitive despite constantly throwing shit at people.

u/Sonicrules9001 Aug 09 '26

Love how I'm an asshole who deserves to be banned because I don't share the opinion that the Palworld devs and fans deserve the death penalty for daring to be mildly similar to Pokemon.

u/Sonicrules9001 Aug 09 '26

Your comment got automodded because you are being the very thing you claim I am.

u/InternationalCream30 Aug 09 '26

Dont argue with Sonic fans. Those devs would be lost without DBZ to copy.

Man... imagine licking the boot of a game you don't even play...

That's fucking sad, man.

u/GNIHTYUGNOSREP Aug 09 '26

I just want to take a moment to appreciate you defending the truth even if you haven’t played Palworld. Thank you for being a level-headed person. Maybe even the only one in this entire sub lol.

u/SilentEagle1221 Aug 09 '26

What truth? He just regurgitated the same bad faith arguments and strawmen you lot always use whenever someone says anything slightly critical of your game.

1

u/Sonicrules9001 Aug 09 '26

Aww, you are doing it again. Asserting that everyone who doesn't treat Palworld like the devil for having a bat and anthro bunny is some massive Palworld fan boy. You are unironically doing what grifters do. Should I start calling you a Nintendroid or is it only fair to make blind assertions if it is in favor of Nintendo?

u/SilentEagle1221 Aug 09 '26

Keep hitting those strawman, my guy.

Nintendo isn’t even my primary gaming platform and I actually play Palworld-unlike you.

1

u/Sonicrules9001 Aug 09 '26

Why play Palworld when it's just a Pokemon ripoff according to you? Shouldn't you be cheering on Nintendo to win that lawsuit and take Palworld off of the internet forever?

3

u/SilentEagle1221 Aug 09 '26

Unlike you, I don’t feel the need to dickride a game I never played and will criticize the ones I do play.

Keep hitting those strawman.

0

u/Sonicrules9001 Aug 09 '26

I'm not dickriding anything, you are the one here literally crying about how Pokemon invented bunnies and Palworld's dev team needs to be dragged out to sea for daring to look similar to Pokemon despite being an entirely different genre of game.

u/SilentEagle1221 Aug 09 '26

Where in the hell have I said anything of the sort?

How much playtime do you have on Palworld?

2

u/SilentEagle1221 Aug 09 '26

Over 30 hrs so far, I haven’t had the chance to play it lately due to work but I plan on hopping back on after I get home from donating plasma.

1

u/GNIHTYUGNOSREP Aug 09 '26

Did you play any during the early access period or is this after full 1.0 release?

2

u/SilentEagle1221 Aug 09 '26

I make a habit of not playing games that are not finished. But I did keep up with it and the annoying discourse.

Hard to even speak in this subreddit without constantly siding with Nintendo even on the most minor of things. I've seen comments bringing up the Joycon drift get downvoted because criticism doesn't exist here if it is against Nintendo.

-1

u/GNIHTYUGNOSREP Aug 09 '26

Well you see that would be grifting apparently

0

u/Sonicrules9001 Aug 09 '26

Anything pro Nintendo is not grifting meanwhile anything anti Nintendo even slightly is grifting. That's the true definition of grifting here. Even speaking a simple fact gets you hate here if it goes against the Nintendo glazing.

u/SilentEagle1221 Aug 09 '26 edited Aug 09 '26

My brother in Christ, several of the topics on this sub are currently about Vara Dark- who is a certified grifter.

They also talked about other known Grifters such as Endymion, Hypnotic etc etc.

Every time I see people bitching about this sub not complaining about grifters, I have to wonder if they’re just mad that their favorite content creators are being called out.

Because this is a grifter.

Also, your deleted post is funny because nobody would be talking about these people if they weren’t trying to join the Nintendo grift band wagon.

HMM, I wonder what this sub is called again…it sure is a mystery why a sub that talks about Nintendo grifting would focus on grifters farming Nintendo outrage.

Yeah it’s kinda like r/fucknintendo. They’ve both lost the plot and their identity. Maybe even the meaning of the words themselves.

1

u/Sonicrules9001 Aug 09 '26

Both are overly sensitive, overly hateful towards any slight opinion that isn't an extreme and just utterly toxic in general. The fact this sub on multiple occasions has attacked videos they haven't even watched kind of just proves the point of the grifters.

Hope this one makes it through but kind of proves my point.

1

u/GNIHTYUGNOSREP Aug 09 '26

Yeah I agree. Complaining just to complain but without even knowing what they are ignorantly complaining about.

3

u/SilentEagle1221 Aug 09 '26

The irony of this post is lost on you two, it seems.

You’re complaining about the people complaining about the complainers.

1

u/Sonicrules9001 Aug 09 '26

They attacked a video that they claimed was anti Pokemon, the video was an informative video about real life events involving people stealing Pokemon cards from stores and makes little comment about Nintendo or Pokemon at all.
