      Now that you mention it: The monsters kind of feel that way. The lacking art direction supports that feeling, too.

      There are already people claiming this, but I have yet to see any actual proof of claim. Unfortunately the court of public opinion has already started to turn even without actual proof. Got to love a good witch hunt.

        I have yet to see any evidence. Just that the CEO is a crypto/AI enthusiast. Not that it was used in the game.

        It really just looks like someone tried to make a better Pokemon game.

        Not the sort of game that appeals to me, but I’m glad people are having fun.

      I mean half of them are obvious merges of Pokémon with assets copied one for one in some cases. Really wouldn’t be surprised at all of they used an AI for this
