I have some questions to clearfiy things to me pls :)
Is this new system meant to stop trading breeders ? or its just a side effect for being (one-time use only)
Is the real problem behind all this is that the economy/prices is so low now that no one care anymore to buy none 3x31 or there are other things that i don't know about ?
Why would it be a problem that every body has even 6x31 ?
Now i want to discuss why the new system is non-beneficial to all players ( or at least for breeders like myself)
1. we spend an awful time/money/grinding to get just one perfect pokemon (thanks to xGilanx and his awesome guide for new breeding mechanism) estimated as :
32 pokemon distributed as 1,5,10,10,5,1 for each state without nature (or being very lucky and it turns out the nature we want but i seriously doubt it).
that means 63 (the ones we used to catch and the ones used for breeding) pokeball x 200 (assuming that we catch only what we need and no more)
62 brace x 25k
thats = 1550k for each comp we want to make
and for the right nature it would be:
63 pokemon distributed as 6 15 20 15 6 1 for each state
that means 125 pokeball x 200
120 brace x 25k
6 everstone
that = 3,025k
now to add some more variables :
pokemon rarity, catch rate, gender/gender-less
gender-less would be impossible to get cuz we need to breed with ditto which will be always max 3x31 or if extremely lucky would be 4x31
rare/low encounter rate pokemons would take forever to catch those amounts
so in total it would take forever if not much longer with those none-common/gender-less pokemons
not to mention the time/effort of confirming all of those ivs ( sorry forgot to mention it before ).
2. After all that hard work we cant use him for breeding anymore (cuz we already have 6x31 with the right nature what would we want more than that + it will go away ?) as well as selling it would be for another player how wants just a comp to compete with not to breed with ).
3. How can we get back the costs that we spent (1.5:3 mil ) ? don't think there will be a way to refund :( so it will be a usless junk or a duel master and thats it.
4. Also that means good-bye TMs (which we cant buy from in-game shops) cuz it can't be passed around anymore (one TM = 1 Pokemon move).
so could anybody tell me why bother breeding in first place ?
As for suggestions i think have a few to modify the new system that could make everybody happy and very thankful ;)
1. For the overflowing part (cloning as some may have called which it isnt cuz the shiny can't breed a shiny except for extremely super lucky ones only) :
the parents (as many has suggested in this/other thread) the parents can only have 3-4 eggs then be flagged as neutralized/ die as in real life with animals/humans cuz pokemons aren't some products to assemble/manufacture and breeding is far from manufacturing.
(3 eggs would be awesome cuz we can breed 2 and sell one that way there will be a meaning for breeding and will make the breeding for trade alive as well)
that way we will refresh the market every now and then cuz some pokemons in and others out.
2. For the economic part we can have the following :
for each egg there will be a fee to get and that fee depends on the IVs of the egg itself like
for each 31 IV 100k (for example)
each 30 IV would be 70k
28 would be 30k
25 <= 1k
that means for 31,31,30,24,28,30 :
2x31(100k) + 2x30(70k) + 1x28(30k) + 1x24(1k) = 371k fees
so that who want to sell either have to sell for more than 371k ( the cost he had to pay ) or be generus enough to release/giveaway and we have a huge money sink.
the prices would be equal or more than the given costs so the economy could once again refreshed ( every body can breed even new players for the minimum cost of 6k for 6x<=25 ) and it would have a greater impact on old players who already have the money and resources to breed, economy becomes healthy and reasonable once more and everybody would be happy.
If not applicable or if it wont solve anything as expected please feel free to discuss the reasons so we could try another solution.
i don't believe i wrote all of this :D sorry for making it too long.
