Dig Ocarina

[KallenSkye]

i know its not an HM but being able to use dig ocarina to escape caves would be a nice qol shop item so i dont have to have it on a pokemon when i go dungeon spelunking...

I don't think so. I can support an ocarina for like Teleport maybe since nothing else does quite the same thing, but a Dig ocarina would render escape ropes obsolete.

thats assuming everyone would run arround dropping real life money on them... its rly the same as having an ocarina for any of the HMs tbh... of course i spose they could put a gym restriction on it like for HMs or switching regions....

But again, escape ropes exist. Why would there be a feature that turns them obsolete when any and all RPGS (especially MMOs) need money sinks? If you can grind money for an ocarina you can grind money for 4000 escape ropes, or something. Forgot how much they cost.

same reason they have HM ocarinas.... to support game development and keep the servers up and give people willing to support the game another option to do so for the sake of convenience..... not everyone is going to buy one it wont make escape rope anymore obsolete than the hm ocarinas make the hm's

.......you BUY escape ropes. It costs money you grind for. That's the point. You don't sink money into HMs. An item to bypass the requirement to have dig in your party already exists.

but dig alone basically makes escape ropes obsolete anyways....

 

rly its just about convenience and supporting the devs... dont wana buy the move ocarina dont buy it... want to support the devs then buy stuff from the shop... personally id love to have more things to support game development with....

 

whats so wrong with having another item in the shop to support game development by buying? its not game breaking.... if we need gold sinks so bad then make the move tutors cost a bunch of gold to use instead of shards.
