Olympus Rangers, a new legally distinct and heavily customizable creature battler, has been announced for PC. Check out the first trailer and details:

"Legally distinct" then immediately shows a blatant Pokemon arena. LMAO okay.

this is a cool concept but why is it impossible for people to make pokémon like games without directly ripping off designs lol

Shoutout to all the modders who will create the best version of Pokemon

aight some do look original but these are just sandslash and zubat lol

"The Pokémon killer?" "Yes Rico, the Pokémon killer."

So.... Odds of this turning into another MUGEN?

Umbreon at home

“Legally distinct” yeah, I bet they sure hope so.

MODS??? Another game for me to add Goku to then..

The workshop support and custom battles modes are EASILY the most interesting part of this game. This is going to be an ENORMUS win for Fakemon creators, original character designers, and people who generally love the feel of monster taming. It’s like a custom showdown client!

Nintendo right now :

I find it funny everyone wants to be pokemon but Pokemon is the most talked about game

A kinda-legally-distincy creature battler than isn't open world unreal engine survival craft slop? that actually sounds interesting

Pushing legally distinct to its outer most limits

Legally distinct and yet for half of the trailer, I felt like I was watching footage of a mod of Pokemon Colosseum. Like, the camera angles and everything felt like they were borrowed directly from that game.

Yeah this might not be good for competetive XD Looks very nice though

I see a LOT of very Pokemon-esque creatures in there @NintendoAmerica @Nintendo @NintendoEurope

Actual (mostly) creative and original looking monsters? The only one actually looking like a mob, id the creature on the thumbnail looking like Umbreon

Poketards in the comments frothing at the mouth to defend their favorite billion dollar corporation, absolutely pathetic 😂

"If you think making Pokemon better is oh so easy, why don't you do it huh?!" The developers of Olympus Ranger apparently:

Pokémon but with workshop support is actually crazy. Really cool idea I hope this takes off.

Why do all Pokemon inspired games feel like knockoffs. This looks like garbage. Ain’t no monster collector beating Digimon & Pokemon. The vibes just aren’t there tbh.

Must’ve left this tab in from before they came up with Rangers as the legally distinct name 😭

Close enough welcome back Zebstrika and Umbreon - also digimon successfully did a creature fighter evolution game for years next to Pokémon without looking like copies of Pokémon why do so many dev just rip it

I definitely saw Sandslash in there

Why is every pokemon wannabe dev team so unbelievably shameless oh my god

People saying the cat looks like Umbreon clearly need their eyes fixed. omg a black feline, pokémon definitely invented that 🤓

On closer inspection, there are only 3 sus designs I can see here. If I were making this, I would avoid things like a bat having the same color pallet as Zubat. It's shape can be 100% original, but still look like a copy using the same colors. Overall, I'd say this look good.

you will NEVER be him.

"Legally Distinct" Are we deadass?

How long until people mod pokemon in this and get it nuked?

@EricRod_LYV en el 0:32 no son los sprites rippeados del juego tuyo de farlans?

I love it when you can tell when a game is created out of pure, distilled anger

People are all in a huff about this being the ‘Pokemon killer’ and some look ‘too much like Pokemon’ As a consumer who doesn’t have any part of any company… why would I really care? It’s a two cakes situation! More fun creatures with new moves and animations? Sign me up. (1/2)

Niggas testing Nintendo now 😭😭😭
