I mean its not like they could do anything about it anyway

their original stance was the lame only play the game the way we want you to play it

I don't think that was ever their stance. It may have been policy for official media but that's a different issue & understandable.

The company not taking issue with fans playing nuzlockes is far different from saying they don't take issue with implementing a nuzlocke mode in the games themselves

The original context was about a treehouse stream, not even implementing the mode as a feature.

This whole thing comes from some former employees who mentioned recommending themselves playing a nuzlocke run for some kind of stream and getting turned down by higher ups who likened it to unofficial gameplay.

That's still a big no-no to TPCI because of the implication that when you lose a Pokemon it's dead

I think what explains all this is the elderly board members at Pokmon Company heard people wanted to play something with a weird name and there assumed it was a romhack

Someone finally was able to explain to 70 year old Japanese men what it actually is and they calmed down

Yeah. But it's also official. I don't think they ever cared what fans did as long as all official sources only say pokemon faint they don't die.

+ The usual copyright shit. TPC is a little more insane than General Nintendo when it comes to this.

Agreed and I think the Treehouse staff interpreted it like they didn't want anyone doing Nuzlockes when they just don't want groups that represent their brand doing it

seems like TPC didn't want employees doing Nuzlockes in official streams and stuff. a fay cry from claiming they hate Nuzlockes.
