Given Nintendo’s history of aggressively protecting its intellectual property, it’s extremely likely that Pickmon could face serious legal action, potentially a lawsuit over copyright and trademark infringement. Even the naming—“Pickmon” by “PocketGame”—feels almost engineered to evoke Pokemon and Pocketpair while staying just slightly off-brand, which won’t likely hold up if challenged in court.
If Nintendo and The Pokemon Company choose to act, this could quickly become another high-profile case in the ongoing saga of Pokemon clones. It’s a textbook example of how derivative design without permission can lead to legal consequences.
