Nintendo, Creatures Inc., Game Freak trademark “Pokedaringu” in Japan
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 13 Comments
A new Pokemon-related trademark has been filed in Japan. Nintendo, Creatures Inc., and Game Freak nabbed the name “Pokedaringu”.
At the moment, we can’t say for sure if the trademark will actually be used, and what the final name could be overseas. It could be something along the lines of PokeDaring or PokeDulling.
Also worth noting, this isn’t actually confirmed to be a game. It could even be a merchandise line or even just an item in a game.

It’s not often that Nintendo talks about past Zelda games. Right now, all eyes are focused on Breath of the Wild. But in this month’s issue of RetroGamer, the magazine caught up with Zelda: A Link to the Past director Takashi Tezuka and script writer Kensuke Tanabe to look back on the classic game.
