Patent infringement? Did they patent "beat up thing, throw ball at thing, capture thing?"
They seem to have a patent for "Pokemon Box Storage" and palworld also has a "Palbox" so maybe that?
This is a weird patent; it seems to be describing something more akin to Pokemon Home than an actual in-game mechanic, but then the references talk about the pokemon storage system, so who knows?
