A Japanese agency has asked its celebrities not to mention Palworld in public

Nintendo is keeping a close eye on the Palworld phenomenon. Pocketpair's title is heavily inspired by Pokémon, and the Japanese manufacturer is well aware of this.

The situation is uncomfortable, to say the least, and this is even more true in Japan. Tokyo Sports reported today that a Japanese talent agency has taken drastic measures, asking its members not to mention Palworld publicly or on social networks.

"We have told our talent not to mention Palworld on social media or in public. This was done out of consideration for the Pokémon side as an agency. This decision was made in consideration of future potential collaborations."

By this we mean that the agency does not wish to alienate Nintendo in order to collaborate with the brand in the near future.
