I don’t know where you are, but if you’re in Europe I’d get my hands on some Novalgin (illegal in the US because it isn’t addictive) other than that there’s some kind of pads for jaw operations that you put in the freezer.
I personally find pain more bearable than the cold, so no ice and a lot of sleep for me
Except for the capture mechanic working similar, which hopefully was not just copy-pasted, the gameplay is completely different. Palworld plays like Arc x Fortnite, while Pokémon plays like Final Fantasy.
And the general design-inspiration itself shouldn’t be an issue. Because I don’t think “style” can be copyrighted
