Given that they are apparently quite skilled at game development, I would hope that they would have considered that when starting. Perhaps the server is hosted in a country out of Nintendo's reach.
- ics 13y agoSince they didn't mention it they're probably A) definitely screwed or B) very humble developers who do not wish to bait the wrath of Nintendo into whatever remote territory they (or their code) resides. B might be a little optimistic. Can you think of any countries where this would be protected (under some freedom of speech or fair use) for non-commercial interests? Note: The Pokémon Company alone has headquarters in Japan, the UK, and the US.
