im just gonna get straight to the point




the item pool in gold boxes needs to be remade asap

gold boxes are not only very luck-based to get through the golden spin, but they're also supposed to have rare items in them

berries are pretty much the opposite of rare items
sure, you can use them in the berry garden and when interacting but when you compare berries to summon items (which is what you're supposed to be getting in gold boxes) they are essentially worthless

PD is very useful, but the PD in gold boxes would need to be 500k to be as worth as most other summon items

either berries and PD get removed from gold boxes or they should only be obtainable from them at a stupidly high amount to be worth it

EDIT: also, im not sure if you can get evo items from gold boxes, but imo you should't neither bc its just. not worth it

i agree. there is nothing more disappointing than finally getting a gold box and opening it to find 3 berries :l

i agree with this,Mystery box items and boxes themselves should be ranged by rarity
from very common to the very rare which it seems its the black box followed by the gold

so the items should range from being common to being very rare upon what mystery box they come out of

like commons should be PD(100-5000) berries few gems pokeballs and as you open a box with a high rarity the value of the item should become high to rare gems event festival points higher amount of pd even to even great items as higher value you go with Mystery Boxes the higher of a value your items should be

I have to disagree. Gold boxes are not that much more valueable than other boxes and i think thats totally fine. 500k pd would be way too much. Since the mentioned summon-items are worth half of that.

Maybe they could be a little less rare in golden slot to make their pd-value more equal to other boxes but that would be a minor change

@zarkesh still, they are rarer than normal boxes and getting (a low amount of) berries or PD from the same box that supposedly has the rate of getting a legend item higher is really unfair

even if they were made more common in the golden slot, they would still be obtainable from the legendary spin and, frankly, answer me this:

would it be better to remove trash items from a box that is supposed to be rare and can only be obtained through luck?
or
would it be better to make a box that is supposed to be rare and can only be obtained through luck more common because it has trash items?

Completely agree.. Tbh on my experience, the items u can get from other box r more valuable than on the gold box...
But I think the evo items should stay...

I kinda agree, to me golden boxes have never felt like they have a higher chance to give 'good' stuff :p

@meme it isnt that rare at all...its about 2 times the value for boxes and 1,5 the value for keys, so even doubling the value of the outcome would be too much in my opinion

If you do lots of interactions you can relatively easy get gold boxes (faster than any other color except maybe the blue boxes)

So i dont think they should become much better (that would just skyrocket the value of golden keys and we would end up having less users going for rare candy in golden slots and those would become more expensive too....)

I think saying that they are 'easier' to obtain than other boxes may not actually be correct, mainly because you get other boxes by rumbling, which is passive, while you have to interact to get GGC, which takes time and effort that could've been utilized on some other activity, whether in real life or in game.

But then again, they are not so extremely rare that you deserve to get 500k PD or a crazy high amount of berries from them. While I don't think that we should be able to get something like 500K PD from the box, but the chance of finding a rare item should be buffed a little bit. I have opened multiple gold boxes and the rarest item that I got, if I recall correctly, is deep sea tooth.

Some low value items should also be available from them, because, seriously, what is the fun of opening a mystery box, when you already know that you are gonna get something super rare. (not fun, is it?)

So, instead of having low value items removed, or adding large amount of PD or berries to the boxes, I suggest improving the chance of getting rarer items from gold boxes, not by too much (we don't want OP gold boxes, now do we?), but still by a rate that may be noticeable.

Well, you did use the word easy in second paragraph, but seems like I misunderstood. I apologize.

If it's about getting them faster, then I agree, with lot of interactions, gold boxes can be obtained quickly. The rest of my suggestion still stands as it is.

I like how Raiko ignored this post for 2 years even though it has, like 80-something % support, it's sad and funny. Mostly sad.
