Hobbyists have made Pokemon clones in their basement for decades. They never needed the source code.
If I'm not mistaken, there's an entire online RPG ran by hobbyists.
It's not about the code. It's about sending a message.
Maybe this was an intentional leak. Now the Nintendo lawyers can claim they've used stolen proprietary code?

Noooo what a tragedy!
Can I already get my hopes up for some PC ports?
Probably not, that'd be piracy, and I'm sure that Nintendo will sue them to hell. 😅

Technically yes but I doubt anyone would go through the effort only to be sued into oblivion.

The people who will be most happy to have it would be the wiimmfi team and the devs running pokemon classic network.
They can finally see what the implementation of gen 5 ranked battles and game sync was, instead of having to reverse engineer it all.
Everyone else is probably only interested in asset data, Nintendo switch 2, or finding exploits for homebrew lol.

Also design documents like the dude that mated with an octillery lol. The concept of people and pokemon breeding was still referenced in sinoh, but in a way tamer way.
Oh no!
Anyways, is that new Palworld island any good
Ive no interest but hopefully there are torrents soon for those who are interested.

Time to clone mewtwo
I've been holding onto a pet conspiracy theory that BW2 was a last-minute change from Gray, loose ends and plot holes felt too rushed. Curious if the leaked source code will corroborate this.
lets go, hope now we get to play these pokemon games on PC
Fuck yeah, going to compile me some free Pokémon!
Now that's really interesting! I wonder where I can go to see this stuff...
Nintendo deserves only the worst for killing yuzu and ryujinx
