In 2014, a woman named Claudia Ng 3D-printed Pokémon-themed planters and put them on sale.

The Pokémon Company International sent her a cease and desist letter and her products were removed from the online marketplace.

Nintendo, which owns a third of The Pokémon Company, has a reputation for being extremely strict with anything it views as copyright violation.
