Talking to support about other creators being suspended on Patreon over Nintendo DMCA claims (example) I decided to remove some posts because I don't want to risk being suspended myself. I think it's the safe thing to do, I don't want my Patreon to be down a second time. ;w;

This means no more Pokeman inspired stuff. But aside from that things will stay the same around here! The gap will be filled with plenty of less proprietary characters!

But I understand how disappointing it is for you guys and it has me down too, so please message me if you'd like a refund for last month. Again, this means I'm removing all posts with Nintendo inspired characters.

The Patreon-only content I remove from my Downloads I will no longer consider paywalled, so feel free to share and you can download them Here!

It's still so bizarre to me that this is going on (Or perhaps it was to be expected after they started messing with YouTubers too). My theory is that Lucario complained because his asshole is so sore after all these years ;3

Yay more money I get to pay for a hiatus

So will this animation and the Lucario one you were gonna do next not be finished? Or will you eventually finish them but just on the side publically and not paywalled. As far as I know you can continue to work on Nintendo related stuff it just can't be monetized

Liuke12

So that means the lucario one is cancelled..?

Can't wait to see what other characters you incorporate ;)

iceFox

I don't like the fact they are doing this :/

Oof that sucks. Kinda wanted to pitch an idea to you for a video if you're willing take ideas but it involved pokemon. Can't wait to see what else you come up with.

No Hiatus Jake Stowers, we're continuing right away with a new character! https://www.patreon.com/posts/miata-by-pool-27633950

I plan to substitute him with another character. Perhaps a cute anubis or something similar, if you guys have suggestions I'm all ears~

Purple Mantis

That's not surprising really, Manyakis and Dives had to do the exact same thing and basically made bootleg characters as a result haha

That is really sad. But it would be more sad if we would lose you a second time. I'll enjoy every other character you will publish or work on. For sure! :)

Really upset Nintendo is doing this. Still gonna support my favorite artists though that's for sure.

Nekari V

Aww dang! I was really looking forward to that Blaziken x Fraligator animation.

I stuck with you before you left, and waited not knowing if you'd be back. I'm in this for the long haul nintendo be damned

Zonkpunch, this is my first time replying or even involving myself in anything that has to do with this content. I am just a watcher and that is that. But this issue worries me so much that it has pulled me from this pattern. Just because you cannot pursue the project in its original light in Patreon doesn't mean you cannot still work on it outside of Patreon. How you do this I will leave up to you. I am happy as long as your original vision is recognized. You are an artist, no one and nothing can stand in the way of that, you have proven this before. Do not let these companies get in the way of that. Just remember; no artist became great from following the rules.

I mean heck, I'm sure I'm not the only one but if I saw a Patreon post from you saying "Hey I'm working on something Pokemon related for the next while but it's only going to go up on FA/Inkbunny" I'd still be a patron. Missing out on early art would be -well- worth seeing an artist still draw what they want to without being pushed around by one or two ridiculous DMCA agents in a big company.

Nintendo is a hoe

The Dark Dragon

Dude your skills are incredible, you can surely produce original characters, that are not pokemon based. So much love for the future. Nothing can be held against ya. Still will miss that Charizard's fat ass thou. ^^'

I wish I was as good at anything as Nintendo's lawyers are at sending DMCAs and Cease & Desists. Sad you have to do this, but it's obviously a smart choice. Does this whole situation mean you'll be more careful about using copyrighted characters in general or is this just concerning Nintendo's properties? Also, can you please add the WIP Feraligatr x Blaziken videos to the MEGA download? Haven't nabbed those yet and would be a shame to lose out on them forever.

would it be the same with the platform: https://subscribestar.adult? I am sad not to see Charizard any more in the future. But I would be even happier to continue seeing your animations; so I'll go where you go (well, as long as we still have so much white stuff to put in the tooth at the end: p)

I really don’t think he cares about anything but where the money is anymore

Skyfire

Hmmmm. Would a "workaround" to this, be uploading nintendo stuff to discord/putting the download links on discord. And then on patreon just putting a "new updates on discord" post, without any mention of what it is that you're working on, on patreon. Then nintendo would be none the wiser right?

Jacques

ouch

This is the saddest thing I've ever seen. I was so excited for that Lucario x Riolu animation ;w;
