They may be referring tocomments such as"the knockoff of Pokemon collabing with the knock off of Minecraft."

Here they make it clear they’re referring to accusations Palworld’s Pals were made using AI.They’ve denied this before, but it seems some people still believe it. “It’s definitely something that will stick with us for years I reckon,“Bucky writes. “Unfortunate, but such is the Internet!
