Nintendo is very strict when it comes to their brand name, characters and creations. If they found out, they'd probably ask for it to be changed or taken down. I doubt they'd sue but they'd probably ask for something to be done about it.
I'm sure Gaia could get a license, granted they'd have to pay a good sum and go through all the legal hoops to get it, but it can be done. I don't think they will anytime soon though.

Pffft, like Gaia'd actually spend money on trying to get a license with Nintendo to use their products. *rofl*
It'd be a shame if the item had to be taken down, but then again, it kinda falls on Gaia's shoulders for giving it the okay in the first place without making a few changes. Changes wouldn't be so bad though. It's a small price to pay to be able to keep the item if things get messy.
Sweeter than candy on a stick,
Huckleberry, cherry, or lime
I wouldn't so much call it a "small price" due to there most undoubtedly being backlash as well as them having to refund the 99gc to everyone that bought it; I personally don't see how this is such a big deal and I doubt nintendo will even care.

Claiming Nintendo will not even care is also saying that if Gaia does a whole collection of X(Pokemon) series and make thousands of dollars over it, Nintendo will just say,"Oh it's whatever."
This is a big deal because you aren't even making the item a parody or slightly altered from a series.
-Xumbreon is not original. It sounds like a 13yr old named it.
-The colors used are 100% exact to Umbreon.
-Gaia is not sponsoring Nintendo or Pokemon anywhere and so this is a copyright of the character.
Gaia has been getting away with this,"Lets walk a tightrope and see what we can get away with."
and I will laugh with when this game they play finally blows up in their face.
