Honestly it's Nintendos fault for dropping the ball. They don't make good modern pokemon content. If they made an official MMO people would be all over it
I know right? And then you stumble across the circle jerk of r/pokemon and see everyone hating on the idea of a pokemon mmorpg, saying that it wouldn't work with the type of game that pokemon is. Those shills couldn't be more wrong about that seeing how well pokemmo does and how amazing of a game it is.
You have a comment but I don't see it here. The hell? And they do, we just never played them all yet. There are still like 15 Pokémon games that I never played made by Nintendo/Pokémon/Creatures. But I am NEVER playing Diamond since I started the idea when Yellow just came out with my friends. The cover for it was going to be 3D motion turn picture thing. I don't know what it is called. But it will make the cover for the game like a video.
Ive always known about this aspect as far as the game being a fancy emulator so ive never thought Nintendo would interfere. But what about the creators of pokemmo themselves wanting to shutdown? Do their "donations" go into server hosting then? Hosting such a big game cant be free. If the game was to ever shut down id have more concerns of something like that than Nintendo.
Ye they pay for servers with the RP purchases, from my understanding most of the money they make does go directly back into servers but i don't see them being in the red anytime soon or in a position where they'd be forced to shut down, this is just all my speculation from things I've heard from veteran players and higher ups so PLEASE take it with a grain of salt, appreciate the comment and concern tho, love to spark some conversation.
If anything I think more pokemon fans will be discovering or moving to this game as the official pokemon games are becoming worse and worse, especially fans of the 2d games which i think is most of us besides the younger generation
Im a former Pokemmo GameMaster. Here is the truth and I was there when Nintendo tried to sue. The creator of this video is 100% correct. Nintendo tried to sue but failed the reason for this is because Pokemmo itself is an special made emulator that reads roms. The reason its legal is because Pokemmo doesn’t have any Nintendo or Pokémon owned assets on their servers. Other Pokemon MMO’s(PokeOne/Pokemmo /PWO usually host their servers offshore to avoid Nintendo. Pokemmo is the only fanmade Pokémon mmo that hosts within the United States because no laws are being broken. As for the store Pokemmo has to abide by two rules. 1. Make sure they specify paid items as “donations” to ensure they arent making a profit from Nintendo’s property. 2. Change item names to ensure Nintendo property isnt being stolen.
@@livetorek4723 What do you mean the devs are the worst people on the planet? you can't just drop a bomb like that and not explain why. And I think the idea of them paying nintendo under the table is some conspiracy level shit
What is PWO? Also the United States attacks copyright criminals so saying that part about USA no laws is not true at all. It is the fact that America, those that are actually smart, knows that it isn't illegal if you don't use their content. Make your own stuff into any game and no game dev can do anything to you about it. That is why there are 15 fake Fortnites and 5 fake Minecrafts but nothing being done about it. Actually the fake Minecraft copied more from Minecraft than the fake Fortnites did with Fortnite. But hey, at least they don't charge to play it. The fake Minecraft I mean.
I have a question about this (old comment I know but I'm actually curious about the legalese here) can the PokeMMO team make their own sprites OF POKEMON outside of gens 1-5 if they make the sprites themselves and don't sell them for actual money? I ask because I'm wondering how much wiggle room there is for them to make future content now that Johto is right around the corner and they'll be essentially out of new regions to add. Im asking also because they added secret shinies which to my knowledge are their own creations meaning they didn't pull those sprites directly from the ROMs. But idk if a pallete swap is considered the same as a whole entire pokemon in its entirety.
My Opinion as someone who worked in Cybersecurity is that yes right now pokemmo cant be shutdown the thing I already saw when big companies want to law could be adapted to shut it down there has been similar cases even with different stuff not tech related where things like that happened so just pray and its all good. And if someone would want to sue I think they would more likely go after the "donation" system cause this seems way more fragile in aspects like money laundering, giving a "p2w" kinda option so arguing if it is just donating also what is the money used on by the owners etc.
This makes me happy! I just started playing on both my phone AND PC! I'm super addicted to it and got a couple friends into it as well! This has always been a fear in the back of my mind that all the hours I've put into it may at one point be gone because Nintendo just has to be that greedy! I'm glad this company is smart though!
all pokemon needs to do it buy it from them and keep it going. make it so u can download it right from the pokemon website with 1 click. and it comes with all the roms. why do they not do this?
I wouldn't trust pokemon to not fuck up this game honestly. it's better off in the hands of passionate fans that actually play the game themselves than a greedy company that might have the means to improve a lot of technical aspects of the game but is just going to settle for mediocrity while still charging a lot of money for garbage.
If it ever goes down it would be awesome if they open source it and we get community servers and forks and all that. I would love for ther to be a version where you can use the app to play dryanno rom hacks
Doesn't seem like they would open source it. But if they did open source it, players like us can help make the game better. As it is now I am already changing the game files to give it a better look.
It is a great game but the devs/admins w.e are way to strict. I gave my friend 3mill and I was banned for "RWT" Im grown pushing 30 spent so many hours on here and its sad you cant even give items worth millions away without them saying its RWT lol
They muted me for playing with my friend. So I got them back by pulling their server's real IP and their cloud ID and showed it to them. They left me alone since and even started to listen to me.
@@OneAndOnlyZekePolaris Wish that was the case for me. They wiped my account now the username still exist but its dressed as a noob and staff took the items off the account. I moved on from it and tried out some smaller pokemon mmos
Well if Pokemon made a true MMO. They may be able to compete in the long run but PokeMMO is a decade ahead of bug fixs and pvp balancing etc. So they are sitting pretty atm

Every Poke MMO ive played since the past 15 years has been shut down(Omega,Legends,Lake,Club etc) im too skeptical and weary to start this cuz u never know with nintendo
Thats only fair. Nintendo has tried to take down PokeMMO in the past and failed if that gives you any reassurance, PokeMMO is DEFINATELY your safest option.
Yea PokeMMO is safe from Nintendo. Even if they would do something, what can they do to the devs? Does Nintendo know their home address or something? I mean if game devs don't listen to users when they speak about the law what does Nintendo think they can do? If anyone could do something then all the illegal websites would of been shut down by now. Case Closed, they can do nothing about it. Also, isn't the roms that this game use no longer supported by Nintendo anyways? I mean Nintendo already told UA-cam to stop attacking UA-camrs for using their music from OG games. Even in the speed running community, supports roms. As long as the roms are as close as possible to the real deal that is.

Nice you are so active and instantly respond keep it up!
They did the same thing where I lived. They would have you pay for something but call a donation. It's a loophole.
I mean it has been like 9 years right? If there was any legal ground for Nintendo to do something they definitely would have already done it
Yeah they’re ruthless. Didn’t they go after emotes on twitch channels that had Pokémon? 😂
But they have already tried but they failed to read the fine print.
Never say never. But I hope not. They made smart decision to give nintendo no legal ground to claim their content.
It faced Nintendo? And SURVIVED?
PokéMMO is a BEAST.
Many have faced Nintendo and won.
The only way Nintendo can shut down is biting the bullet and buying the project like Sony did with the early PS1 emulators
Sony own CD rights so when Nintendo split up from Sony they couldn't use Discs.
If in 10 years they can't close this. Absoluty they can't.. thats the true... I like you content u so amazing

with all the money that we spend, will johto finally be tomorrow?
Soon TM
surely :Clueless:
Nah, it's actually tomorrow.
It's coming at spring, it has been officially announced 😍😍😍😍😍
"Johto Tomorrow"
A way to explain this for dummies :) Pokemmo is a MOD not a game. Where we get the game/rom from has nothing to do with the PokeMMO mod.
all pokemon needs to do it buy it from them and keep it going. make it so u can download it right from the pokemon website with 1 click. and it comes with all the roms. why do they not do this?
Because Nintendo is dumb. They rather create games for 5 year old.
Good question... maybe it's because the roms are very old for one
