Nintendo and The Pokemon Company pick up patent on summoning a character and letting it fight another

Posted on 1 week ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 0 comments

Nintendo and The Pokemon Company have jointly secured a patent involving summoning a character and letting it fight another. It’s reminiscent of what we see in Pokemon games where players can send creatures out to battle.

A few days ago the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) approved the filing, which is for Patent No. 12,403,397. This also ties in with a separate patent (No. 12,409,387) related to the “smooth switching of riding objects” mechanism.
