Trade evolutions and such.
« on: July 30, 2010, 07:33:38 AM »
My suggestion has to do with evolutions. Specifically special evolutions. I suggest evolutions such as "trade while holding" or "level up to blah blah while holding" be changed to something more accessible. While i would not be upset if those mechanics stayed in the gameplay, it's just something i'd like to suggest and see how many people agree with me.

More accessible how?

Being an MMO it won't be difficult to find someone willing to trade a pokemon. Now, if you want your pokemon back, then, you'll need to get trusted people and people who trust you ;)

EDIT: Seems the word vanished -.- *reinserts it*

No one can go back and change a bad beginning; but anyone can start now and create a successful ending.
If a problem can be solved, no need to worry about it. If it cannot be solved what is the use of worrying?

Currently playing Pokemon XY/ORAS/Shuffle and Clash of Clans and testing out PokemonRevolutionOnline and Dragonmon Hunter....

These types of evolution shouldn't really be changed as it makes things more interesting and fun.  If you give alternative suggestion of ways of evolving maybe it'll be easier to agree or disagree lol.

But jerry's quite right, if you want your Pokemon to evolve (and only way is through trading) and want it back, you'll need a trustworthy person/friend.  But then again some people are too trusting and sometimes get scammed =(

But that's just part of the game and life, too. If you are too trusting, you can get scammed easily. But it only makes the game more interesting. Sure, its easy to find someone willing to trade, but finding somebody who you can trust with the trade is more difficult. It won't be as easy as you'd think to get your trade evolutions.

Indeed, I'm with the idea of keeping the evolving trough trades. I'm slightly concerend about the area evolutions, that tend to appear especially in the 4th generation (Leafeon, Glaceon,...)

No worries about that Sora :)

We'll add some new corresponding places or maybe even change the way they evolve.

By adding are we talking about like while surfing on water or in a cave or on top of a tower?

I would like there to be NPCs willing to do trades, like in the handheld games. Someone is willing to trade a Kadabra for X. You find X, trade, and get an Kadabra that evolves into an Alakazam.
