You seem to have neglected one key piece of information in this article: namely, you '''cannot copyright facts or names'''. The word "Thundershock" for example is not copyrighted and therefore nothing stops you using it in an app or website. If it were illegal to use names like this then ''billions'' of web pages would need to be taken offline right now!

Isn't using all of the Pokémon sprites and such in an app, as long as it's public domain, considered fair use? I think so. --[[User:Nathan2055|Nathan2055]][[User Talk:Nathan2055|<sup>talk</sup>]] 18:59, 14 July 2011 (UTC) | |||
