That lawsuit might take years, and the requested damages from Nintendo are only $66,000. Palworld isn’t going to be shut down anytime soon, even if they lose the case.
There was a request to halt sales until the specific mechanics were removed, with the mechanics being throwing pokeball like items and riding monsters.

The request includes a term to shutdown Palworld IIRC

Trying do ban riding fictional animals is a tall order
Fuck it, have Nintendo sue blizzard whole they’re at it. I want to see a nerd bloodbath.
I looked through a few articles but couldn’t find anything about a term that would shutdown Palworld just because Nintendo won the lawsuit.
The worst case scenario would be something like Palworld having to change their “Pal Spheres” into “Pal Cubes” or prisms, or something similar.

With the money they’ve made already, they could move the team to US, where none of this would fly.
