  • Palworld and Pokemon have been the hottest debate in the gaming world and while there are many designs that you can say that Palworld stole from Pokemon, the game Palworld is nothing like Pokemon at all. It might come down to Pokemon taking legal action towards Palworld, but I personally think that the existence of Palworld is healthy for Pokemon as a whole and heres why!

    The biggest thing I hate that people use against Palworld is the sheep. Like... it's such a basic and simple sheep design. Same with Wooloo. White cottonball sheep, omg they're stealing. I can see the Cobalion looking one, but Anubis when it's literally also based on the actual Anubis like Lucario is also a bit much?

    one of the most impressive things is the differences in behaviour between each "Pal" in the world, whenever you see a new one your never quite sure how they will act, some are aggressive predators some may hunt in packs others are totally passive some stop at nothing to flee turning any catch into a mad chase, others turn and fight when cornered some will rally to a friends defense some even pretend to sleep to ambush you if you get to close and all are tied to the time of day in a not strictly Day night Cycle like there's a lot of effort here.

    From what I'm understanding, pokemon made the statement because people were supposedly badgering them. However, I believe someone actually modded their Palworld to have actual pokemon designs and had a video up and taken down... which a few may believe that is one of the reasons for the statement from pokemon. This is what I heard so I could be wrong.

      The gameplay of Palworld is a bit different to the mainline Pokémon games, but extremely similar to Legends Arceus. The main premise of the gameplay (catch elemental monsters in balls and battle with them) is also identical.
      They are direct competition in the same way that CoD and Halo are in direct competition. The mechanics and structure of the games aren't completely identical, but it would be silly to suggest that they aren't similar in some significant ways.

    Didn't Palworld already started development before Gen 9 (or gen 8)? If that's the case, Pokémon Company can't sue since it was already being talked about widely via internet. And they would have to sue other gaming companies that did a similar genre to them (Spectrobes, Dino King, Fossil Hunters, etc).

Even James' rifle (which wasn't a bazooka, it was a Carl Gustav. The kind of rife that shot _84_ mm bullets) in the same episode had its firing censored even though it shot ice to begin with.

    Taking a design aspect from one fictional monster and creating your own monster with inspired designs is not copyright infringement. Copyright infringement would be if they just straight up put in a Charmander, or a Staraptor.
    Combining design aspects from more than one monster from another franchise is also not copyright infringement as long as it is clearly a different design as a whole.
    Nintendo can't touch Palworld unless they straight up put in Pokémon.
    Although... That Luxray-looking one is kind of sus. As well as the Cinderace lookalike. They should probably rework those designs a bit more. 😂

      Sorry for the long comment btw
      Tbf there are Pals that look like rip offs of existing Pokemon, this video clearly shows at least three that are slightly different Eevee clones, a Luxray clone, something that's like a cross between Meganium and Goodra, one that looks like Lucario but more Egyptian, a Cinderace and Leafeon fusion and something that clearly has Galarian Meowth's face on it, it's body is just different enough that you might not notice.
      I'm not against Palworld, I haven't played it though, so what I've seen is from people who are "promoting" it for lack of a better word. I think it looks like a good game but honestly some of the designs are just modified Pokemon and that's wrong, there are a ton of IP's that are considered Pokemon clones, i.e. Yokai Watch, Digimon but they have very distinct "monsters" that don't really resemble Pokemon designs, whereas Palworld have very suspiciously similar looking designs.
      Not only that but I've heard some in game music that sounds a lot like Zelda music, which means that they could be stealing music too. I'm happy they're looking into it, because I don't mind a game like Palworld existing as it might cause Pokemon to up their games but not if they're stealing from other IPs.

    the hate for the game is blown way out of proportion though. monster taming/catching has been a genre since before pokemon, so its unfair to call that part a “ripoff.” and, as mentioned in the video, the gameplay is completely different lmao. the hate people have for the game is extremely unwarranted.

      How Is direhowl/lycanroc look similar to you other than the fact they are based on wolves like what part does it look like a copy to you.
      Jetragon is different enough to call it inspired rather than a copy.

      Pretty much everything apart from the rocks in lycanroc's mane and the exact shape of the light fur patch on their faces. Their overall fur pattern is almost identical, and they both have white spiky manes (real wolves, and most cartoon depictions of wolves, do not have manes). The similarity is incredibly obvious.
      You're right about most of the other examples though. Cobalion and Fenglope are both based on deer, and have a similar colour scheme, but (unlike with direhowl and lycanroc) their body shape isn't almost identical. It's likely that both are partially based on historical depictions of Kirin, rather than that Fenglope is directly copied from Cobalion.

I don't really care too much if Palworld is AI generated or if they're desings are too simular to Pokemon, I'm just happy to see GameFreak and the Pokemon company get competition because for the last decade or two I'm pretty sure their mentality when making games is "it doesn't matter if it's good or not, it will sell regardless".
    I don't want Pokemon to fail, Pokemon has so much potential but doesn't take advantage of it because they've gotten too used to just making the same games over and over with less and less effort. Having another company come in and start making competition will make Pokemon games better in the future especially if they start seeing their sale numbers drop.

    It’s unoriginal? Most gaming studios, make the same danm game over and over again or just make crappier copies of more successful that don’t go far. Indi Games pretty much make the more interesting and better games
    Sure Palworld isn’t original, but it’s still fun and despite being an early access game, it’s still fun to play and it’s world is something we know very little of because it’s not finished yet. No one said anything about *Cassette Beasts* which is basically a Pokémon game but different setting and story.
    Also, take Pokémon Uranium, a ROM hack that Pokémon didn’t like, there was a Pokémon mod for Palworld that was immediately shot down. If Palworld did steal from Pokémon they wouldn’t wait for this game to basically beat its peak of early access and then do something about it. Why wait when so many already love it despite its current state?

    The designs and pal collecting are obviously in large part based off pre-existing Pokémon designs, it’s what they clearly wanted to do as fans of Pokémon themselves.
    But no, they haven’t “stole” anything. They took heavy inspiration from various Pokémon, but as much as to fall into copyright infringement.
    It’s not in competition with Pokémon, it’s a totally different game that brings in very different people with very different focus groups. Palworld is if anything is just a survival game with aspects parodying Pokémon.
    This is a stupid argument, just play the game and you’d see little to no similarities outside of pal design and having a capturing mechanic.

      @@TS17ADS You're right about Fenglope and Cobalion, but regarding Direhowl, what the fuck are _you_ talking about? Why would either Lycanroc or Direhowl be based on a design from monster rancher? Even if it was true that they were both copied from monster rancher (which just pushes the accusation of copying to someone else, rather than actually resolving it), Lycanroc and Direhowl are much more similar to each other than either of them is to the design from monster rancher - Lycanroc and Direhowl don't have horns, and the wolf from monster rancher is light grey all over instead of having dark and light patches.

    Looking back in all the past competitors it’s kinda easy to see how pokemon thrived against past competitors
    Digimon as a franchise was so diverse with how many tv series it had between the og series and data squad and the animes were its real selling point and it didn’t help that the games themselves weren’t as straightforward in gameplay as pokemon
    Yu gi oh definitely did and some can still argue have a rivalry with them but not as to as an extent with digimon as it’s main focus is a card game and not a video game plus a lot of ppl grew up being fans of both so Konami and game freak never really antagonised each other as a result
    The only rival that had real potential to step up against pokemon before palworld was og bakugan, the fact that it combined features of multiple different series such as yu gi oh and pokemon to create such an innovative card game was amazing back in 2007-9 but bandai had no clue how to market the series especially in the west, the anime itself was imo the best out of all of the animes listed here even pokemon but the more mature approach it had of straight up death and a teenage cast obviously wasn’t going to sell well with kids which is a shame because it had such great potential
    Palworld being a straight up copy in graphics and looks of pokemon is how they’ve been able to succeed were bakugan failed despite having literal guns and violence and honestly pokemon may have some real competition now

Now that it’s out I haven’t gotten the time to play it much but when I have it’s fun. The fact though that the only shit out there that I see when I search anything to do with Pokémon besides leaks and rumors is Pokémon vs Palworld. I’m already sick of it. The two can coexist without all the toxic ass losers making videos and articles about the shit. Leave the two separate. If we’re gonna compare games then Palworld is closer to Ark and just happens to have monster taming in it.

    Pokemon would do really well on Xbox, where it targets adults.
    It's a game that has mature stories. You pick your home region, then DLC the rest.
    You have to buy food on top of ensuring you have potions and Pokeballs.
    If you or your Pokemon starve, you lose stamina and health. If your Pokemon starve, they lose what you did, plus a temp drop in stats and friendship.
    You can buy stocks, houses, vehicles, and businesses, and you can employ people for your house and businesses.
    Through stocks and your businesses, you earn money. You do this through tasks as well. (All incressing as your renown increases)

    I think its awesome that an indie developer team can develop a game after 3 years and it frickin' runs MORE SMOOTHLY in EARLY ACCESS (yes, I know PalWorld had some bugs but I'm talking about PalWorld's frame rate and overall game performance, bugs aside) than Pokémon Scarlet and Violet from GameFreak, a multi-billion dollar franchise... it honestly makes them look like a JOKE... I believe this is a good thing too, I hope PalWorld's success makes GameFreak realise they have to keep being innovative with their product and I really hope their next game, at the very least, doesn't suffer from frame rate issues, stuttering like SV does and how half the Blueberry Academy biome was flickering in and out of existence during a pan view of it...
    As a huge Pokémon fan who was frustrated after the frame rate issues, learning the legendaries were not only shiny-locked but had a 3% catch rate (so GF wants me to grind EVEN MORE effort and time just launching pokéballs at legendaries? It felt like GF was giving me, the player, the middle finger...), PalWorld has been a welcoming addition to my life, I've been enjoying it tremendously, I can't remember the last time I had this much fun playing a game! It also helps that the indie devs, PocketPair are more interested in creating a game that people enjoy and I really like their roadmap thus far.
    Awesome video, HybridHero, it was really good to hear your thoughts! Looking forward to seeing more videos on this subject!
