In Pokemon Go, once a month, they have these events called Community Days. How it works is that it increases the spawn rate of a certain Pokemon for 3 hours, as well as an increase in shiny rate.
There should be a similar kind of monthly event on MMO that could boost the shiny rate of a certain species. This would definitely motivate more people to hunt shinies.
There could even be certain limitations to the day, such as, “Only single encounters will have the boosted rate”.
And before anyone starts the whole “It’ll ruin the economy” argument, I bring 3 counter-points:
1. Hate to be that guy, but most likely nobody is gonna buy the shiny you put on GTL, because if It’s not OT, you have to release.
2. Even if the above point is wrong, they could make the shinies caught during these events “Gift” status, so they couldn’t be traded nor breeded.
3. We could at least have one by having the common worthless shinies(like Pidgey, Rattata, Bidoof, etc) be the featured Pokémon(or base it off the lowest prices shinies on grl) and do more based off of how well it turns out. Then maybe keep it going based off of performance.
Again, this would encourage a lot more people to shiny hunt. Since a lot of people are deterred from doing so due to the fact it’s 1/30k(Whether or nor you classify that as “fair”), and would give them a better shot to at least score ONE.
