MrBeast’s Call for Reinvention
As a prominent figure in the online content creation sphere, MrBeast took to social media platform X to express his views on the matter. He emphasized his nostalgia for Pokemon, having grown up playing the games on his Gameboy. However, he suggested that the Pokemon franchise needs to break free from its c onventional model and explore fresh and inventive approaches, drawing inspiration from Palworld’s success.
“I grew up playing so much Pokémon on my Gameboy, and it’s crazy that all the games now are still basically the same thing. I would give anything for them to reinvent the model and just slightly try to freshen it up,” MrBeast shared.

They have no other choice now but to take their time and put in the effort for the next Pokemon game.

“There’s too many new Pokémon, and I don’t mind them doing that, but it would be better to give them new forms with the same model. Would save them more resources,” commented one user. Another added, “They have no other choice now but to take their time and put in the effort for the next Pokemon game.”

Awaiting Pokemon Devs’ Response
As of now, the developers of Pokemon have not officially responded to the Palworld controversy or MrBeast’s call for innovation. The gaming community awaits further developments, pondering whether Pokemon will evolve in response to the rising popularity of Palworld or maintain its established formula. The outcome remains uncertain, leaving fans intrigued about the future of these iconic franchises.
I think that the old way of playing still helps them make money, but changing it differently will cost investment but may not bring them profit. Hope you help everything better ❤️
