YoshidoriForum Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 Maybe is a little to much but sure is handful make it so that when a wild pokemon appear we can see the IVs like this: Spoiler less waste of pokeball can be a problem? Link to comment
0 Perry Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 This would make hunting for good IV-ed pokemon 100x easier. Consequence: decrease in pokemons with good IVs' worth. razimove 1 Link to comment
0 notmudkip0 Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 Catch any good IV mon, flee from the rest. Economy suffers. Link to comment

Spending money is crucial for the balance of a game's economy. If we were to make this idea a reality. People would spend way less money on Pokeballs. There will only be amazingly good Pokemon on the GTL and ruin the entire market. Because why would you catch a bad IVed pokemon if you can already see its IVs? And everyone wants an as high possible IVed pokemon. I'm afraid it will do more harm than good. notmudkip0, razimove and ZoroarkH 3 Link to comment
0 Gilan Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 I'm not in favor of this idea. Originally we had to spend a great deal of time determining IV's (there wasn't even a window in PokeMMO for it, used to be full-manual). Then we got a window with IV ranges. Then we got the exact IV's and a summary screen immediately after we caught the pokemon, with the option to release it without having to be at the PC. I feel like we've already compromised enough with this concept and any more leeway would be overkill. Perry and Ryu 2 Link to comment
0 Tyrone Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 (edited) Not a good idea from game macro economic perspective. It would decrease the money sink, causing inflation. Which means that people will have more money (yay?), but everything else will become proportionately more expensive too (boo!). When the amount of yen in the game becomes too high, it's bad because the value of yen compared to pokemon/other items will be lower. I hope this explanation makes sense.

0 Raederz Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 This is not a good idea, but inflation has nothing to do with it tho. Inflation is only a problem when the whole community isnt impacted the same. I see no difference between having 100$ to buy something worth 100$ and having 10$ to buy something worth 10$. Problem is when price turn from 10 to 100 and ur income from 10 to 80 (exemple) which isnt the case here. Problem here is more about the time it takes to catch breeders (1 usable breeder every 5-6 catches approx), making it faster gives it a better $/time, makes more ppl do it, higher supply, same demand, prices go down. And breeding will only be buying braces. Maybe some ppl would like it, but once I heard "gotta catch em all". Would also make it faster to have the whole pokedex as comp, and have more and more player out of the market. Less dynamic market is dead market. No one likes to wait 2 weeks to sell something.

Inflation has to do with it as more yen retained in the economy (less spent/sunk on pokeballs) means there's a larger supply of yen in the economy, ceterus paribus. Increase supply of yen combined with equal demand of yen = inflation in virtual economy. notmudkip0, Darkshade, OrangeManiac and 1 other 4 Link to comment

Like the idea of hunting multiple pokemons of the same, is to find the one with the ivs you want. This makes sure: 1) Game has a somewhat healthy economy 2) You place some effort into the game, the ''reward'' feeling, is what gets you hooked into a game usually. Pokeballs are dirty cheap either way, with an island run + npc run through kanto and gyms in hoenn, you can buy yourself 300+ pokeballs. And like Gilan said, the system is already easy enough by itself. Link to comment

And inflaction happens here a lot, you might notice it in shiny prices. Link to comment
0 Raederz Posted November 11, 2017 Share Posted November 11, 2017 Shiny prices may be the worst exemple as they are mostly getting lower and lower for the expensive ones, and staying constant for the cheap ones. Inflation would make their value go up. Here, the problem is the lack of inflation. It IS a problem because it kills market dynamic, making people think "Im not that interested, so I better buy it later because the price is not growing up" Link to comment

Since you are familiar with the term inflation I am certain you are also familiar with something called demand and supply. You do realize that the longer this game exists. The more rare shinies exist in game. So seeing as the demand for these shinies will roughly stay the same. Since everyone wants them, them being expensive high tier shinies. But the supply will increase. Thus it's price for rarer shinies will deflate. That is not rocket science. It's in fact the first thing you learn in economics. This is all assuming the community of this game doesn't increase by 1000's over the course of months. I'd love it to happen but just for this situation as you are referring to a current situation. On top of that it is not weird that the common shinies' price stay the same. Because everyone likes to use commons for breeding. Since they're cheaper than others. And that demand and supply will always be there. Since they're common. But to stay on topic. No this idea is not something that should be done. Yes it will ruin the game's economy. Link to comment

On what did u based your calcul to assume shiny generation pace is higher than players leaving the game with shinies, or just not willing to trade them anymore ? Link to comment
0 Akshit Posted November 12, 2017 Share Posted November 12, 2017 Not a good idea at all. Economy aside.... Gotta Catch 'Em All right ? If you see the IVs and nature beforehand... You might not catch it, hence going against the original tagline. That would be going against the original Pokemon franchise belief and might piss off Nintendo, not worth the risk. Link to comment
