So erm, small suggestion about shiny hunts.

What if every 100 eggs you hatched (or 70), your chance of hatching a shiny could increase?

Lets be real. The small bonus given only when you hatch 40 and only one time is definitly NOT enough. Yes, this might make shiny hunts easier, but still. It takes SOO many time to hatch a shiny thanks to the current too small bonus.

Oh, and lets not forget about the people who go wild and hunt legends.

No support.

As far as I know, our shiny hunting chances follow the same as in a real game (I think? I've never shiny hunted in a real game before I'll admit). Making the shiny chances increase would make shiny mega hunting and legend hunting too easy. The whole reason that shiny megas and shiny legends are so sought after is the fact that they're so difficult to hunt.

Edit:
@Ri and XD001, that was worded badly xD Not really what I meant ^^ I meant that it followed the same way games do: after 40 = max chance and nothing happens after that. Now that I look back on it though, that was seriously worded badly woops ^^

No support honestly, it makes it way too easy, the challenge is there for a reason, to be challenging.

While it would be nice to have an increased chance, each hunt is different and each user has different experiences with the same hunt.

My last hunt, for example, was Aron. Out of 701 eggs I got 24 shiny and only 1 mega able. yay for shinies but I was not after those. This idea would not have helped, whereas the Manectric hunt yes. It wasn't until near 300 I got a shiny. *meh* good experience!

Nice idea, but not for me.

@SilverStar Odds here are not the same. They are better.

No support. Shinies would all drop in value and become more common. In audition those that purchase premium by saving rather than using real money would no longer need it. It costs us 1.2 mill per month. The only reason I purchase it is for shiny hunts. Now I can just hatch them faster without it. The only reason for me to buy it now is to get a full evo line.

yeah, i share the opinion of the other posters, its not that hard to get shinies in hunts, since every hunt is different. of course there may be bad luck hunts but i think the shiny chances are still very fair on here. you can get multiple eggs from daycare and also use the egg radar.

so no support for this, i'am also afraid the shinies would loose more value. some of them already have a lower value than others.

To be precise, the max. shiny chance in Diamond/Pearl/Platinum that you can get at chain 40+ is 1:200, while on PokeHeroes it is 1:40, so it is significantly better. With the Shiny Charm, your max chance is even around 1:36. So yeah.

According to our 2016 Statistics, 48 Thousand Shinies were hatched last year - that is 132 Shinies a day. That's more than enough, I think.

Therefore, moving this suggestion to rejected ~
