Update 2.0 Discussion

Post by Pikachu3828 »

I've created this topic in the hopes of sparking discussion about the latest update, which will be a big one not just because of an entirely new look but also because a lot will be changed behind the scenes as well in order to make it more sleek and efficient, which should result in a speedier, more convenient and more fun experience overall.

What I would like for this topic to be is kind of like the 'Chat Topic' but exclusively for discussion concerning the latest update. I'd like for you to spout off about anything you like - ideas, suggestions, complaints etc. I often ask our IRC regulars for feedback on the Adoption Agency but of course I'd like to offer this up to our users who do not use IRC as well. Since you are the people who will be using the Adoption Agency it makes sense that you get your say in what goes on! I can't guarantee every suggestion will be implemented but I will be watching this topic very closely so your participation here can have a direct effect on the development of the Adoption Agency :)

Please do not PM me about bugs on the Adoption Agency. Instead, make a topic in the bugs forum.

A black market run by Team Rocket. :D

They could sell pokemon and give you tasks to do like the trick house, rewarding you with stuff and bad karma. They could also sell items which change each day. The items could have a chance of being fake or of a too poor a quality to work.

It would be nice to have a karma bar, or more ways to change your karma.

the update is gonna be great! i thought of a couple ideas.

The Ability to grow more than 1 berry at the Berry Master's place.

An Automatic Sprinkler that will water your berries for you depending on the time interval you set when turning it on (make it a quest to get it or alot of money)

Police Station (you can come here to take up missions off the mission board, find criminals or wild unruly pokemon and bring them here to make the streets safer. Possibly have a special adoption board where you adopt abandoned pokemon, limit it to once a day and have them change like the doll shops where the adoptable pokemon changes everyday but can be different pokemon for different people, would be a good way to recycle released pokemon)

More People that can visit the Train Station (maybe a person that is similar to roark trade but can offer both items and pokemon, a person that gives away a rare pokedoll, and maybe professor oak on anyday but friday and he just checks your pokedex.)

Maybe a Garden for the Ranch you can buy. You can grow berries on it at a faster rate than Berry Master BUT your berries need watered more frequently as well. could have bird houses and other garden type items you can buy for it and sometimes wild pokemon could come visit (types of pokemon would vary on what garden accessories you currently have) with a chance of them either eating your berry plants or leaving an egg (egg would be lower chances just so we wouldn't get flooded with eggs)

idea: having pokemon in your boxes automatically be placed in numerical order (as well as when you go to breed).

A happiness exp bar would make me, well, happy :eh: Or just some way to tell a pokemon's happiness level other then the lady at the train station who seems to hardly ever show up...

If yo check the dev diary topic and the screen grab of you logged in, you may see a breeder exp progress bit underneath the trainer image on the right. It's not a bar (yet?) but it does tell you your current breeder exp and how much you need for the next level.

- I'd actually love to be able to see other people's Pokemon in the Ranch, when I say that, I mean like when you go to their profile on the AA and click Ranch, to have the bottom bit with the Pokemon sprites like we see on our own ranch, if you get what I mean.

- Also, I was thinking of a lottery, where a rare item/pokemon is up on the lottery and people buy tickets and at random there is a winner, I think this should be weekly.

- I don't know if this has been mentioned or discussed yet but actually having styles on the AA, it would be pretty interesting.

- An Arcade? And there could be completions to see who gets the highest score on a certain game and you win prizes. Maybe, trainer bases or sprites.

- Recoloured trainer images, I think these could be done, I wouldn't mind to do some myself, gives you more individuality.

thought it was mentioned somewhere, but wasn't sure. tisk tisk to me

edit: was their any mention of adding more prizes to the game corner? (like more pokes or even a few items)
