Munya Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 But, HP breeding does require more planning and work, should they be given out at the same level as just any comp shiny? Link to comment
ThinkNice Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 (edited) But, HP breeding does require more planning and work, should they be given out at the same level as just any comp shiny? You could have them as prizes for more prestigious tournaments. edit: like the climax of a tournament serie Edited January 27, 2015 by ThinkNice Link to comment
Gilan Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 aslong as it is a gift pokemon anyway it has no value I would just like to point out that even though the gift shiny may not have any value in and of itself, it will still affect the overall value, albeit to a small extent. As it takes out a potential buyer for that pokemon, and reduces it's "special" one-of-a-kind/limited value. Link to comment
Squirtle Posted January 27, 2015 Author Share Posted January 27, 2015 I feel like he messed up his message and meant they wouldn't be giving out pokemon that require a specific HP. This. Link to comment
OldKeith Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 So no: Blaziken Metagross Gengar Jolteon Magneton P2 All Psychic types All Fire types Dragonite Exeggutor Sceptile Vaporeon (meta could shift in a way that HP Electric is norm) Ampharos Camerupt Electabuzz Electrode Golduck Lanturn Omastar Magmar Manectric Misdreavus Raichu Pikachu Sharkpedo Shiftree Vileplume shitty system Well out of those only a part NEED hidden power to be viable.

flavajabari Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 i'll take a shiny p2 without hp yo, if i really have to. the struggle sherdoonach 1 Link to comment
ThinkNice Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 Well out of those only a part NEED hidden power to be viable. but they all have very viable sets with HP >:C Link to comment
Munya Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 (edited) Sort of made me think of something, can we request any pokemon in a chain of a pokemons evolution or will it always be set? Trade evolving pokemon are why I bring this up. EDIT: Well, not we, they. I don't suspect I will be winning any tournaments. Edited January 27, 2015 by Munya Link to comment
KingTsunami Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 What's LYLE's answer to this lol? Curious to know since most wins go to them (Not being a ass). Link to comment
AzizFTW Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 Still saying trade in a comp you already have and make it shiny Link to comment
flavajabari Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 Still saying trade in a comp you already have and make it shiny nah that was the prize for the biggest event known to pokemmo, to get it just on a tourney would be kinda lame. Link to comment
ThinkNice Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 nah that was the prize for the biggest event known to pokemmo, to get it just on a tourney would be kinda lame. I never gave such a prize Archinix, 0Yggdrasil0, flavajabari and 4 others 7 Link to comment

DoubleJ Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 What's LYLE's answer to this lol? Curious to know since most wins go to them (Not being a ass). We're all pretty much of the mindset that not being able to trade your prize for in-game value is going to be a negative and will hurt opportunity to advance throughout the game. While trophies in and of themselves are appreciated, they will only be a means for gloating in my opinion alone. I personally don't like rubbing something in someone's face when I beat them on an individual level. Now as for Team Glory... [spoiler] LYLE #1 [/spoiler] Link to comment

[spoiler] LYLE #1 [/spoiler] With the change in event prizes I am asking the host of events give options for both first and second place prizes so players may choose to an extent what it is they want. But understand this will still be decided upon by the staff member hosting the event in question. DoubleJ and fredrichnietze 2 Link to comment
OldKeith Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 but they all have very viable sets with HP >:C Yeah I agree with that. However, they are still viable comps, and I would be glad+proud to win a shiny one. I would not like a shiny Jolt with no hidden power, though... Link to comment

JonazDK Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 If you not think you will give then hiddenpowers, then make them 6*31, the only problem i see in this is some comp players can see this as an unfair adventage in comp. And i don't believe that any compplayer will see this as that big unfair adventage, because of there already is a lot of comps out there which is close enough to be godly to this little difference will mean nothing, also these shiny comps will be very scouted so even if they have 6*31 i think there is a big chance for people still not will use them in comp Link to comment
Shaniqualela Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 (edited) Still saying trade in a comp you already have and make it shiny i think it would be cool if, say the prize is shiny slowbro. you could choose to take a random shiny slowbro, or make your own slowbro shiny (99% of people would use a comp one). I think it would have to be an OT of yours to make it shiny though, so they kinda have to work for making the comp. Edited January 28, 2015 by cgaribaldi94 Link to comment
Rache Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 also these shiny comps will be very scouted so even if they have 6*31 i think there is a big chance for people still not will use them in comp This option seems to be overlooked a lot, but unless egg moves or varying natures are involved, players can simply redo the moves and/or EV spread of the shiny comp at any time (and the same goes for normal Pokemon if someone doesn't want to make 5 of the same species with the current breeding system) if they're afraid of being scouted or they just want to use the Pokemon differently. It would cost a bit to do each time, but depending on the person, the ability to use a fully competitive shiny Pokemon that few other players would have may be deemed worthwhile. Link to comment
FlareBlitzz Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 How it worked : Spend everything on Decent comps -> Win tourney -> Sell the Prize (Shiny) -> More comps How this will be : Spend everything on Comp -> Win and have something to boast about -> Still poor for comps Don't think how that should be. Maybe a Special Prize Ribbon on the (Tradable) Shiny stating the winner's name, so it always remains as a momento would be great. DoubleJ 1 Link to comment

There shouldn't be a tradeable shiny, winning a tournament should not pay for what you put into it and some, it should be a bonus you earn for winning.

Literally would just sit in the PC, I myself have given up on tournys. Not worth it, I care nothing for shinies, so really if I did win and did, I would just sell it straight away for cash.

You & I have agreed on this topic almost the whole time but at this point I believe is where we disagree. I believe you should put your money into your comps, and winning tournaments should give you a prize back into making new ones. Which is why I agree with the idea of the untradeable shiny + Breeders Package, as it provides you with a trophy, and items to assist in making new/more comps/sets. Link to comment

Thats the bonus, its not really paying for an entire team of comps, and it shouldn't. Link to comment
