Um, I wouldn't really use this.. I mean, sure, give a Shiny and get a Shiny. But i just think it'd be easier to set it up in the normal GTS and wait till there were offers I liked.

Why I wouldn't use this:

Shinies are pretty Rare, even easy rarity Shinies. Plus, they cost a lot of time, and money too. So i certainly wouldn't want to trade away my hard earned Shiny. So I don't think many people would use it. Also, you have no idea what you'd get. It could be virtually anything. It could end up as a Shiny you didn't like. The Rarirty sorter or whatever couldn't stop THAT.

Users with Multiple Shinies of the same species: (Extra Shinies?)

Now, you're pointing out Premium users with a lot of Shinies that are the same, right? Well, I myself am a Premium member. I have 3 Shiny Sentret and 3 Shiny Furret. (well, only 1 I hatched myself, 2 of them i bought and 3 of them were gifts.. besides the point) You would consider those Pokemon Extra Shinies, yeah?

Well, to me they aren't Extras. And just because i have more than 1 of the same Shiny does not mean they're Extra and up for trade. Same goes for anyone. I know the user bourkey has a lot of Shinies. Even multiple of the same species. Well, i know for a fact that most of them are NOT up for trade. So just because someone has multiple Shinies of the same species, doens't mean they're extras and are up for trade.

A chance at a Shiny Ho-Oh?:

I don't think this is necessarily a great thing. Sure, who wouldn't love to have a Shiny Ho-Oh? Personally Ho-Oh is one of my favorite Pokemon, and i would LOVE to have a Shiny one, but think of the chances. I mean, only one user per day gets even a Regular Ho-Oh. So if you added a Regular Ho-Oh prize to the Shiny Wonder Trade part, wouldn't that also mean you'd have to add the chance to get a Shiny Ho-Oh to the regular Wonder Trade part as well?

Then why would people even use this? Trading Shinies for only a chance at getting a Shiny Ho-Oh when theres also a chance of getting a Shiny Ho-Oh from the regular wonder trade now? Seems pretty pointless to use the Shiny one then.

Sorry, but I don't think it should be implemented.

@Furret Thanks for your detailed post.You pointed out that maybe you may get a shiny you don't like.I guess you may set it back to the Shiny Wonder Trade Station and try your luck again.And about the shiny Ho Ho thing,I guess as I explained in the main post,just leave it to Riako.

I like this idea, although I have no shinies and the one I'm hunting I don't wanna give away. I think that you could offer a legendary or other extremely rare pokemon.

@BlackStripedPika I do not completely agree with the idea of legendary and rare pokemon.Because Shinies are a whole lot different than them.Since you have premium,you may get 2-3 shinies.

@Shayminlover You can't call this a `bad` idea especially after the supports.Most of the people have shinies nowadays in PH and atleast 1-2 UFT.

No support. It would make gainig shinies too easy and it would be full of shiny Magikarps or these easy pokemon to hunt.

@BlueAbsol Obtaining shinies in not going to be any easier because only after you give a shiny,you get one and if you are worried about getting an easy rarity shiny,just set up an easy rarity shiny of your own.

@BarathInfernape
For suggestions, only bump if it has been 5 days not 2,3 or 4!
