Don't let the extensive and costly marketing campaign around Mega Malamar detract from Nintendo filing a patent for "summoning monsters to fight other monsters", trying to kill off any competition despite not even being the first franchise to do this.

Also note to jannies on Nintendo's payroll trying to push this under the rug by deleting threads; this is very much a /vp/ relevant topic. When Pokémon does something that will impact its competition is still goes on /vp/.
