Pokemon perms

Reine is currently doing a Pokemons stream, as a number of other members have done these past few days.

Regarding this, I think it should be noted that the pokemon company as far as us viewers know have not, at least explicitly, given permissions to cover, but rather it was an internal policy change from management, as Koyori mentioned in her PTCGP stream. According to her, hololive management has granted the green light for the talents to play a selected set of titles. I think this is supported by the fact that you won't find the usual "This game is being streamed and monetized after..." statement in the video descriptions. Also Koyori when talking about this looked to be very careful in choosing her words -- although I have no idea what that signifies.

So be happy that holomems can play pokemon now, although, I guess, proceed with cautious optimism. Personally its a bit nerve-wracking, because if cover is acting under the assumption that, say, Pokemon is turning a blind eye to these games being played, then it kind of feels like when hololive were playing nintendo games without permission back in the day.

Also, since this is internal policy shift, I think its fair to assume that all branches are granted access to play pokemon, not just JP
