KaynineXL Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 Instead of staff creating the shiny prizes, why not have the game give you a random shiny prize out of a certain list of each respective tier. Of course the rarity of the Pokemon decides the chances you'll get that reward. Pros: We don't need to uguu about the shiny prizes staff give if they're random. Another sense of excitement not knowing what you'll receive at the end. Cons: The prizes given out cannot be monitored to make sure there isn't an overflow of a specific shiny, although devs could force a specific shiny to be removed from the pool for a month or so after it's already been rewarded.

kevola Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 This is a pretty cool idea, would be pretty exciting too Heniway 1 Link to comment

BlackJovi Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 What about those people who play for the prize? It could discourage them Link to comment

NU tiers have more bad shiny than others, just that. But yeah, you could also have a big one like Nosepass or claydol. Edited May 26, 2017 by Heniway added an option. Link to comment

But yeah, you could also have a big one like Nosepass. and that's why we have staff to pick approriate prizes for it?...why would we turn that into something reliant on RNG or better yet, why is stop playing a tier I'm best at a solution for that anyways, I doubt this suggestion gets approved so no need for me to start getting triggered Link to comment
Heniway Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 (edited) Maybe one more con, it could be less interesting to enter a big tourney series like The Legend of the Steel Bird. Or maybe I just say shit.. @LifeStyle read kevola's idea, it could be what you need. Edited May 26, 2017 by Heniway Link to comment

If it's like Kevola said, yeah, Nosepass won't be in it but still, NU have some great shiny if you put just those with a good usage. And you won't have shit like rattata or caterpie.

Rache Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 (edited) We have no interest in randomizing shiny prizes. Doing so is likely to cause more problems than it attempts to solve - receiving something undesirable from such a system would be disappointing, and some may think of it as unfair if they receive a significantly worse prize for winning a long tournament than what is given out for a short one. Additionally, we will never be giving out rare species such as starters for standard tournaments, and removing them from the potential prize pool would only worsen the quality of prizes overall.
