From NFT Punchline to $8 Million Raise, ‘Pixelmon’ Preps for MON Token Launch

Pixelmon, initially known for its controversial NFT launch with knockoff Pokémon creatures, has undergone significant changes, including a change in ownership and fresh funding. The game, now under the ownership of LiquidX, recently raised $8 million in a seed round, featuring notable backers like Animoca Brands and Delphi Digital. Pixelmon aims to launch its MON-powered IP protocol and roll out new games, signaling a turnaround from its initial NFT fiasco. The renewed focus on premium-looking creature models and strategic partnerships is part of Pixelmon's efforts to reshape its image and enhance its position in the crypto gaming space.
