Documents lodged with the Federal Court of Australia have revealed that The Pokémon Company International is taking Pokémon Pty Ltd to court over advertising a new NFT based Pokémon mobile game. No Pokémon are not taking themselves to court, but Pokémon Pty Ltd is instead an Australian company that set up and advertised a website claiming to be launching a crypto game called PokéWorld, under the name Kotiota Studios.
Not only that, they have claimed to have worked on other Pokémon games, including Pokémon Scarlet and Violet, Pokémon Home and even the unreleased Pokémon Sleep. The Pokémon Company International points out in the legal documents that they are not a contractor for them.
The website for the game PokeWorld is still available (which we won’t link to). The Pokémon Company International has asked the court to seek a resolution to stop Pokémon Pty Ltd from using their trademarks on the website, and social media, to not launch the game or sell any NFTs using their IP.
Very bold. Get sued to oblivion!
