So I've been thinking about something recently. Consider the following: 1. Amulet Coin and Pay Day. 2. People have a lot of free time. 3. There is no money cap (at least, none that we yet know of). 4. Spending time accruing a resource that gets people nothing in particular that they want (or at least, doesn't dent their wallets) won't feel good to the player. Assuming it's okay for people to trade money for Pokemon (also known in our society as "selling" -- it's on the Big List), those prices will be high. But think about this: Say you wanted someone to breed you a shiny of a particular nature and IV set (obviously you can't control all IVs but you can get one or two relevant ones). You approach them and make them an offer of, say, 8 million Pokedollars. This seems like a reasonable price to you, as it is basically all of your money, and it took a lot of time to accrue it. Now ask yourself why the breeder would ever accept this offer. ... What are they going to do with it? You just offered them a valueless resource. They already do the only thing worth that much money in their spare time instead of earning the money to begin with. And you can't assume that they will higher yet another breeder, etc. etc. ad infinitum -- some people just don't want to breed; and plus, if everyone is spending money to have someone else breed, but they get the money to pay for it from breeding for someone else...Eventually people will just breed for themselves. There needs to be an outlet that people can dump their money into in the endgame. This lends itself pretty easily to the dangerous idea of PROFESSIONS. There are a few kinds of people who play Pokemon, but right now we're going to look at people who play a functional or team-like role already in known Pokemon gameplay. ROLES: -Tournament players -Breeders -EV trainers It may make sense for people to become these things officially, in game, and give them slight purchasable advantages for their chosen roles. Tournament players' purchasable advantages might be rare but good hold items and berries (when they get implemented). Breeders might get bonuses to correct nature/IV chance, and EV trainers might get temporary multipliers to their EV gains, or EV gains to all Pokemon in their party, or something like that. These items would be tiered by a person's "skill" in their role; how many "successes" they had had in doing what they do. An "S-rank" breeder might be able to purchase the ability to guarantee a nature and an extra IV, might be able to purchase the ability to have an insanely low chance of breeding twins, etc. An "S-rank" EV trainer might be able to purchase the ability to guarantee the next Pokemon they fight to have Pokerus, that sort of thing. What do you guys think?

[Suggestion] Challenge Mode This is a pretty simple suggestion, introduce the "Challenge Mode" (Higher trainers pokémon level, better AI, etc) from Pokémon Black 2 and White 2. But instead, you can choose this before you start the game, and well, for people that has ended the game, just ask them which mode would they want. (For example, for the people that beats the Elite Four.)

I was just in global, a rare occasion since my team were offline, and someone brought up how they traded a moonstone for a nugget. Its a truly horrible trade and I told the guy in these exact words 'They'll always be useless even when selling is in'. So, that was when this idea popped into my head. You should be able to make coins using nuggets. [b]Pros[/b] -Gives nuggets another use -Another method to get coins - [b]Cons[/b] -Could make it too easy to get coins if the exchange from nugget to coin is to low. e.g 1 nugget 100 coins -No more use for GC grinding since you could just thief Meowth (Could possibly be solved if the amount of nuggets for 250 coins was raised higher) - I also did a little bit of math and if a nugget sells for $5000 then you would ideally want to be able to exchange 1 nugget for 250 coins minimum but this would change if the price of the nugget changes.
