Hi everyone!

This is an additional suggestion to the changes from the 14/06/2020 you may look up here, which allow us to see thanks to notification popups if eggs hatch shiny-mega-able.


Today I'd like to talk about the fact that mega-ables have become a big topic for us, especially since they are more common now because the chances got highered through breeding. And since they are part of some features, like the beach or at the honeytree, I think it would be nice if we could spot them as soon as they appear. Because, knowing if a pokemon is a mega-able or a shiny mega-able helps us to decide if we want to adopt/catch something.


This seems to make a lot of sense for the beach at least, because there is set a limit of pokemon you can adopt each day.
Making it visible could look like this:



But also, spotting a mega-able or.. a shiny mega able at the honey tree might help us to decide if we want to catch that pokemon. just for the sake of hunting a special personality or a shiny-mega.




Since we're already able to spot the difference of our hatched eggs through notifications, I think this change would be a great addition. What do you think? Should something like that be implemented, or do you prefer not to know what you catch/adopt, because you like to get surprised? Let me know about it.

Thanks for visiting this suggestion. :)

No support, i really like the surprise when you randomly adopt/catch a pokemon at the beach/honeytree and results on a mega. For the beach and safari should stay like it is now, i thik is unecesary to have an extra category on the fishing box knowing that you cant use them for trading

I think that for the honeytree, it should be kept as a surprise, but for the beach, we have to trade pokemon with leah. it’ll be a shame if you traded potentially megable pokemon to her! so for the beach, it’ll be a great update!

Thanks for taking the time to vote and comment and to share your thoughts in general.

Let's not forget this is not only for heracross and magikarp. At the beach we can also catch potential mega able feebas, mudkip or squirtle, while visiting the honey tree there also might be the chance for a mega able slowyore.
We don't know yet if more mega ables will be added in the future and if they will be added to those features.

That's why I'd like you to think for a change for the honey tree as well. After some time, when you've been visiting the tree it is getting very tiring to encounter the same species over and over. But the option to spot a mega able after hours and hours, could help to spice up the whole experience and might help us to visit more often.

On the other hand: The option to know that the shiny you've encountered is NOT a shiny mega, might also help to reduce producing less unwanted shinies. Which can help to rise the value of overhunted shinies due to shinymega hunts again.

I totally support this.
I don't want to catch every Heracross for example from the tree, to know if it's MA.

For y’all who want a surprise at the honeytree:

possibly a toggle box in the misc settings?



i think that would solve it if you want a surprise :)

100% support, I hate the thought of me possibly missing a MA at the honey tree or beach because I didn't catch the mon or I traded them for bait

I agree with what is said about having it at the beach and not the honeytree. It would be nice to know if a poke is mega able in the fishing box before adopting it, I also think that rumble areas should show if a pokemon is mega powered or not too

I agree with this suggestion especially for the honey tree. I would spend so much time trying to catch a Heracross only for it to be a plain-old beetle, and would scare away any future ones wondering the possibility of it being mega-able.
