''Pokémon Conquest'' was the second collaboration between Nintendo and Tecmo Koei, with the first being the Murasame Castle mode in ''Samurai Warriors 3''.  Because [[Tsunekaz Ishihara]] was a fan of ''Nobunaga's Ambition'' and Tecmo-Koei president Kou Shibasawa was a fan of ''Pokémon'', this presented an opportunity to work with each other.  Among one of the key design elements of [[Ransei]] was the fact that the first ''Nobunaga's Ambition'' game featured 17 regions, just as there were 17 different Pokémon types at the time.  Among Koei's game franchises, this is the first collaboration effort for ''Nobunaga's Ambition''; all previous collaborations had been through the ''Warriors'' series (though a true Nintendo-themed ''Warriors'' game would not arrive until ''{{zw|Hyrule Warriors}}'' years later).  In deference to this, character designs for ''Pokémon Conquest'' were primarily taken from ''Samurai Warriors 3'' as opposed to a ''Nobunaga's Ambition'' game.

For ''Pokémon Conquest'', each of the [[Warlord]]s' initial (Rank I) costumes are based on their default costumes from ''Samurai Warriors 3'', and an original costume when they rank up to Rank II. (The exceptions are [[Nobunaga]], where this is reversed, and [[Hideyoshi]], whose Rank I and Rank II costumes are taken from ''Samurai Warriors'' and ''Samurai Warriors 3'' respectively; his Rank III costume is original).  There are some minor modifications in character appearances and costumes between the two games, however:
