Not very! They're just banking on Pokemon GO's success, hence the shoes only being of the first generation. (Nothing new here...yawn Razz) Also thanks to PG, all nostalgic Poke-related merchandise on sites like eBay have skyrocketed in price.

They have no reason to, these people are using a system that has no link to their property. The colours are just based off of their characters while a list was created for which scheme relates to which of their characters. It's on the same threat level as Wikipedia. I doubt they will but I wouldn't be surprised.

@Hikarunu: I would not be surprised. However, it is ultimately up to a court whether or not it is fair use. Also, less Nintendo forget that they also have made video games based off of public domain characters and thus those games are derivative work of sorts.
