Pokemon Attempting to Sue SWSH's Leakers - RetroTyphlosion - Nov 25, 2019
Hello there,
I have an interesting tidbit of news for you today. The Pokemon Company has recently identified the Discord accounts used to leak SWSH, and they have begun a lawsuit against the leakers. While their real names remain unknown (and they'll need to find them out), action has begun. You can read up on it and view the court documents here: https://www.polygon.com/2019/11/25/20982094/pokemon-company-sword-shield-lawsuit-discord-leaks-strategy-guide.
Hopefully, we can receive more news in the future. I'll keep you posted.

Wait! Are they really going to sue the leakers?
What is your opinion on this?

@Newdll Hello again!
Yep, The Pokemon Company is attempting to sue the leakers. However, their real names remain unknown, and they need to know them in order to progress. There's court documents written, though, and they appear to be prosecuting to the fullest extent!
Honestly, I don't have much of an opinion on this. What they did was sue-able, and they're getting sued. They deserve it, frankly.
However, its entirely possible that the leakers may just be random internet people who never signed anything about non-disclosure. In this case, they basically can't get punished, so it just depends.
Thanks for the feedback!
