    We don’t know which patent they’re being sued over, as that information hasn’t been made public yet. We can only guess at this point, but it’s obviously a patent that’s intrinsic to the Pokemon franchise and a reasonable guess would be the capture mechanic. The fact is that Nintendo believe they have a case.

      Agree to disagree then. I highly doubt they’re suing over the capture mechanic. If they ever had a patent for that, it would have expired already.
