Help with naming

I just made a wooper pattern and am wondering if I can call it a wooper or because of copyright or something because it’s a Pokémon I can’t, and if I can’t I need help with ideas of what to call it

Please help :(

It’s not only the Pokémon name that is copyrighted, but also the design. So making a Pokémon pattern, even if you call it something else is still illegal and Nintendo could sue you. So I highly discourage you to post that pattern :3

Yup, they are. Not everybody knows, or care, about the copyright stuff though.

Yeah it’s still copywrite, but an axolotl animal isn’t so you could turn him into a standard cute axolotl

Yeah u should probably give it a new name and crochet it a hat or something :)

the visual image/character of a pokemon is technically also copyrighted
