Clicking on eggs in our storage boxes
Forum-Index → Suggestions → Implemented → Clicking on eggs in our storage boxesPardon if it's in the wrong suggestion forum, figured this was more emera-esque than other sections.
I don't recall seeing another suggestion like this, but if there is one, please point it out and I'll go support that one :)
But literally as the title says, to be able to click on our eggs we have in our storage boxes, like we are able to click on our pokemon to pull up their pages, to identify what they are, if we don't keep track of that.
I know some people usually only have one egg type in there, since it's mostly used for shiny hunters, but if you just so happen to store an egg in there with the same EHP value, and don't happen to keep track of it when you deposited it to make some room in your party, you're stuck playing a guessing game on which egg came from where, if it was from the lab (so obviously not part of your hunt if it's all daycare/gem exchange eggs), etc
I assume the reason why we can't do that is because if we're able to click on that page, that we would theoretically be able to interact with the eggs, but maybe possibly it's a feature that can be disabled on eggs specifically marked as "in storage"
or maybe instead of being able fully click on the egg and pull up the interaction page, it could be set up so that when you click on it, like you would normally on a pokemon and have (name, level, item & pokedex number) pop up, it could just show (Egg, EHP, obtained from : daycare/lab/gem exchange, etc)
Hope that makes sense!
It's even worse when I'm shiny hunting via tall grass and using the daycare to breed different events xD

Though as a note for events: even though they have rhe same EHP, the event eggs are usually considered after the dex number of the original poke. (Ie; 4 eggs in storage, 1 cleffa and 3 clawful. All the clawful eggs are 2-4 and the 1st egg is cleffa; does that make sense?)
Who can be trusted to have a good memory all the time anyway?

And additionally, when in the storage box menu, please make it possible to see the egg sprite in there too, so you know if the egg you´ve adopted from the daycare is a van bagon or a mr. bagon, since both came from daycare, same EHP, same rarity etc. (sam for jolly JR/Sad JR, Latias/Latios, bird-trio, basically any legends :D )
Let's say someone is using the egg storage to gather Event eggs while getting the normal eggs for a hunt at first. If the eggs in the egg storage we're clicked on, that would break the chain constantly.
Same thing goes for those who are trying to collect 100+ legendary eggs before hunting that legendary, again, their chains would constantly be broken.
It’s literally a suggestion to /help/ shiny hunters so they don’t accidentally claim an egg from storage thinking it was another egg ^^
