I understand that Legendaries in normal play would be a detriment to balance, that's not what I'm vying for and I want to state that upfront.
In this game when you catch a legendary, a notif is sent out and people can challenge you for posession for it. What if we kept that system AND added an option to, instead of replacing your last slot, go directly to the PC or a new page within the PC dedicated specifically for your Legendaries to sit? I've always like collecting these guys in the base games and don't typically keep them in my party anyway. They're too special for that! Think Skyrim's mod Legacy of the Dragonborn- just collecting these guys for the sake of it. Look at your PC and say "I did it!", a sparkling pillar of your progress across generations. And with HG/SS coming to the game soon, I can't think of a better time to implement this.
I'm not sure how difficult it would be to program that, nor do I understand if it would conflict with the goal of preventing PokeMMO from getting taken down, and if it's a lot I understand, especially with this most likely being a niche desire. But it would add some, for lack of a better term, breathability to the game, and could be a selling point for new players who love the Legendary pokemon to play the game front to back, just as I wish to do.
In any case, I think this suggestion would benefit both the players in a small, but important way, and it would benefit PokeMMO by bringing in new players who consider such monsters an essential part of the experience rather than driving them away, as it almost did me (I stayed because I knew HG/SS was coming out soon and that's the gen I was raised on).
Thank you for your consideration, and I'd love to hear feedback, though I can't promise to respond to it all. My memory isn't great and I'll probably forget I made this post in a few hours. That said I am on the Discord server as TheGoodMush and I don't mind getting pinged. Have a wonderful rest of your day!
Sincerely,
Mush
