That means they get weekends off, were allowed to work from home since long before Covid forced the word under, 4 weeks paid leave off, all public holidays off, etc etc. They have the best employee working conditions in Japan, precisely as they're not like every other fucking studio. They were 20-somethings who'd never worked a day in a professional capacity developing vidya, thus never picked up on the trad working culture for the industry. As the years passed, they kept treating the younger/newer ones as the OG crew had acted (Masuda confirming he and another programmer used to work from 10PM through the night, as they could blast techno music at each other without interrupting/annoying the non-technoheads on the team).
They wanted to make a gremlin with a hammer. They have a rule that everything they add to their world must be feasible ("it can't just ahve spikes everywhere, you need to think how it would use those spikes"). They decided the pink squishy gremlin thing hunts Corviknight to get its hammer. The very existence of it proves it breaks birbs, else Game Freak wouldn't have added it.
