    Unless that slogan is trademarked (and even then)… dunno… ask Legal Eagle.

      The animation video clips sure are copyrighted. Ask Ketchum is Nintendo’s intellectual property. I’ve been in fangame spaces for years. The motto is - when the articles come out; the uploads go down.

          In what way is this fair use, though?

          Regardless of the other criteria of fair use (which the DHS likely doesn’t meet), see factor 4:

          the effect of the use upon the potential market for or value of the copyrighted work.

          This is immensely harming Nintendo et. al’s IP.
