Palworld is nothing compared to Pokemon. Pokemon TCG pocket mobile game recently announced it reached 1,3B revenue in 1 year on the market. So even just one mobile project from Pokemon eclipse Palworld. Not to mention its 100M+ copies sold on console during the last 7 years, all other mobile Pokemon games, all the merch, physical card game, anime. Palworld is just a game which rivals to Nintendo are bankrolling to create an alternative to Pokemon on other consoles and PC, but it will always make insignificant money compared to Pokemon. The Pokemon brand has first mover advantage, ie it was created decades before its Palworld copy and will thus every year always earn so much more money permanently.
Pokemon's ability to release new console games every year with 10M+ sales potential also means that Pokemon will just move further and further ahead of Palworld when it comes to revenue generating abilities. One could argue that Palworld is more comparable to Digimon and Yokai Watch in its revenue generating capabilities than Pokemon.
