I don't know why people keep thinking Nintendo will/can sue them.
You can't copyright game mechanics at all.
I could make a scene for scene remake of Mario or Halo as long as I used my own assets and didn't touch copy rights I'm fine.
How many Dota clones exist or PubG etc.
People for some reason think Pokemon is special but it's just the foundation of the "monster collection" genre they don't and can't have a copy right on it.
Ehhh, it's the same reason Nintendo DMCA's videos and streams of people playing their games. Sure once it all pans out Nintendo doesn't have a leg to stand on BUT in the meantime they kill the content they don't want out there.
