Patent rights? You gotta be kidding me. The hell did they patent? Throwing a ball?

Apparently, in their LONG list of patents, is one for the in-game Pokemon Storage Box. Just speculation, of course, but that could be one the Pokemon Company cites.

Almost literally. They patented:
-
catching characters in thrown balls
-
calling on characters by throwing a ball
-
using captured characters to fight and harvest resources

@nonprofitparrot, if you have the links to the patents at hand, it would be grand if you can share them.

To be clear, no official source has released these patents as definitively relevant to this case. But they sure look relevant.
