Sintatic Posted December 28, 2020 Share Posted December 28, 2020 So my Idea is to create an option to buy an untradeable Pokemon with real money. Everything can be edited and everything have a price: For example, if you want it shiny it would be more expensive. If you want 3x31 it would be more expensive than 2x31 and less than 4x31 If you want egg moves you would've to pay also the egg moves So you have a box to choose everything and as you editing you can see the "actual price" of pokemon Link to comment
0 Iziksquirel Posted December 28, 2020 Share Posted December 28, 2020 I'd have to say I don't much like the idea of the game becoming this transparently Pay-To-Win. A lot of the game is working for your goals and this seems like putting a price tag on hard work. kuplion, Poufilou and Sintatic 3 Link to comment

0 EricRasp Posted December 28, 2020 Share Posted December 28, 2020 Breeders exist in this game and they can breed a mon for you. Sure they take some profit but that's only expected because breeding takes time and effort. kuplion 1 Link to comment

But for example, if I want a comp shiny Dragonite or something like that and I just have almost no time to play because of my work and stuff what's the problem of buying an untradeable one? Could be just an option to buy shiny particle to a Pokémon and make it untradeable, i dont know This is my vision Edited December 29, 2020 by Sintatic Link to comment

Could be just an option to buy shiny particle to a Pokémon and make it untradeable, i dont know This is my vision The ability to poof a shiny into existence, no matter what price tag you put on it, is a very quick way to completely destroy the game's shiny economy. Even if it's untradeable, it still has an impact as the species becomes less rare/special among the playerbase as more and more people obtain them. It causes the demand to go down as people get what they want without the tradeable supply going down alongside it, resulting in reduced value. A lot of a rare shiny's demand also comes from how few of them there are in the world. This suggestion sets a hard ceiling on the value of tradeable shinies too - why pay more (current market price) for one with random OT/IVs when you can spend less buying enough RP vouchers to instantly make one that meets your standards yourself? It's not as harmless as it seems. Anything that translates to "shinies are easier to get" and/or "more people have rare shinies now" is going to have a very significant impact on their value.

Question
Sintatic
So my Idea is to create an option to buy an untradeable Pokemon with real money.
Everything can be edited and everything have a price:
For example, if you want it shiny it would be more expensive.
If you want 3x31 it would be more expensive than 2x31 and less than 4x31
If you want egg moves you would've to pay also the egg moves
So you have a box to choose everything and as you editing you can see the "actual price" of pokemon
