Hello!

I had an idea; since you're able to get Raikou, Suicune, Entei and Manaphy (+ their Shiny forms) at the Prize Exchange, why aren't you able to claim a Ditto?

You could only be able to get a Ditto with a very high amount of Game Chips, maybe even more than a Shiny Manaphy costs, but you'd be able to get it.
But only a simple Ditto. A Shiny one would be.. nah. It wouldn't be special to own a Shiny Ditto anymore, and for a Shiny Ditto you'd have to collect veeery much of the Game Chips so you could get more than one and start chaining it, since you can't breed Ditto.

It would make things easier for us, and maybe more people would have more motivation on playing some Game Center Games.

Please share your opinion about this idea.

Title: u

it even more fun to scavenge for []bbDitto[/b] in the lab and if people spend time at the game centre nobody would make interactions because everyone will be busy playing for their own ditto
so practically i won't support this idea

@BHIM wut? why people would't do any more interactions? there are some events that only happens if you do interactions (Shaymin, Kyurem, Hoggy), so yeah. Plus, imo, Lab scavaging isn't the most fun thing ever, since premium members can see what the egg is faster than normal members.

kinda neutral
it would't make Ditto that rare anymore, but again, Lab scavaging for Ditto is kinda unfair and boring.

Neutral aswell. I would support another way of getting ditto but I am not sure if I'd support the game center prize way. Right now ditto is super rare and that makes it extra special. It's really exciting to go lab hunting and to hoard gems for it and I think that game center prize would be too easy unless it was really, really, really expensive.

Only if it is like 1,000,000,000 Game chips, We need it to be rare.

I'd support if Ditto in the prize exchange (like what you said) is 100,000,000,000 (100 Billion Game Chips)

100 Billion.
That's just too much. I'd say a good price would be 100 mil Game Chips.

I agree with Cliff. 100 Billion?! That's a bit of a stretch. Concentration and Higher or Lower can fetch you a lot of GC, but it'll take a very long time to have 100 billion.

Anyways, support.

Honestly? I kinda don't support this idea. The idea of getting a ditto is meant to be an achivement. Something you work towards and players don't immidetly need it. After finally getting my own ditto, the sense of acivement I got from having help from other players brings the comminuty together.

There are 3 ways to obtain ditto as of right now, Via Gem (Which is what I did and I find the 2nd easyest option to do) From the lab (which I find the hardest and the most luck to obtain) And from another player, buying it from 5Million PD worth and up. Which I find is the easyest to do. From selling so many worth items. I have had 2million before ((And spend it all on Normal gems )) One people have ditto that's don't find a worth in most gems any more and tend to sell them on for other gems.

So if you have another way to obtain ditto it would put this trade market all out of wack and make many gems even more worthless and unbale to sell because no one will want them.

So my answer is no. This should not be implerments because it would make it easier for other players to obtain. Plus the sense on acihvment will decress. Other items worth will decrease and everyone who is new will be slaving over the game center rather than interaction with everyone else which is the whole point.

After all there are plenty of ways to get normal gems, Heck I got a ditto in 3 months with 10k Normal gems.

No support. Ditto is meant to be one of the rarest Pokemon (and most wanted) Pokemon on PH. It even got an extra method of obtaining, which is via the Gem Collector. Before that, it was only the lab.
I don't think it needs any more methods because you think lab hunting it is too "hard", "long", or to "boring". It's obviously going to be long and boring - reason stated above.
Besides, auto clickers are really easy to access, and I can guarantee you that there will be lots of issues with cheaters if Ditto was available in the Prize exchange.
Also I'm really not in favour of making it easier to obtain.
Instead of complaining and saying lab hunting is tedious or whatever, try saving up 10,000 normal gems? Nobody said you have to lab hunt to get it. The gem collector method was added to make it a little bit easier for people who don't sit on a computer 24/7, hoping to grab a Ditto egg from the lab~

I support under the condition of making it only worth 100 million coins and personally I think that its already way too hard because there are tons of people who hunt ditto in the lab as it is and premium users get a quicker glance at the stats of the eggs adding to the competition and for the gem collector to receive the ditto egg you must already have a ditto and 10k normal gems and to find someone who trusts you enough with their ditto so you can get your own is tough as well.

No support. Backing up what Toothie says. Although I am one of the many users that looks for one, I believe that many users would be able to obtain Ditto if this was implemented since I've encountered quite a few members who actually was able to purchase Shiny Manaphy without cheating within 3 months or less of registration. So, no thanks.

This would greatly diminish the value of a ditto. And all the hard work someone has put into either collecting gems or LAB hunting would seem like it's not worth it.

Take a look at my free and UFT boxes if ya need/want anything.

Sorry, but no support. This would make getting Ditto WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY easier than it should be, and it kind of makes it unfair to the people who put in all this effort to get a Ditto just for it to be achieved by someone who could've just gotten lucky with Coinflip (or, even worse, cheated). Not to mention the fact that the value of Ditto would drop like a rock if this was implemented. It would just make getting Ditto too easy. Ditto is meant to be rare, and it's already got both the Gem Collector and Lab as ways to obtain it.

I support this idea as long as the Ditto would be worth 1 million coins. It gives people a chance go work at something rather than just beg others for a ditto. Plus, it'll be more available to those who can't afford to get one since the price of a ditto is way to expensive.

As per all of know, ditto is one of the most rare Pokemon. So, getting it in the prize exchange would be easy. Most of the users would spend a lot of time in the Game center and they can get the ditto... Getting ditto like this wouldn't be fun. But, finding ditto in a lab or buying it from someone would be more fun.
