[Other Question] Can we still build games?

I have no idea where this is supposed to go in terms of Essentials, so apologies if this is in the wrong place.

Since the downloads of Essentials have been removed, and things have gone Topsy turvy recently, I want to ask if we are still permitted to take our pokemon ideas, make games, and release them here on the forum?

I have an idea that I want to make into a game, but given what happened in recent memory, I don't know anymore if we are even allowed to do so.

Considering that the forum for Essentials is still here, there's nothing restraining you from making your game.

What about legally speaking? Are we allowed to share fangames?

Legally speaking you were never allowed to do that. But that's not because it's illegal that you cannot do that.

Yes you can. You just have to find Pok?mon Essentials somewhere else.
