First, I want to say, how awfull I find the solution with those Mega Powered Pokemon, that you can only obtain them through breeding and adopting from the lab and that you can't evolve any other Pokemon to it's mega version with an Mega Stone.


That is why I like to suggest some kind of super training like in the new games, where a pokemon can get stronger, but a little bit different. How would it be, if you can train any pokemon that can evolve into a mega version with this training. That training should be like a quest, which you can only do once a day and it takes a few days/weeks to train it so it will mega evolve. The point on which it obtains this bubble could also be totally random on every pokemon you're going to train in there. So maybe it gets it's bubble on day 7, or maybe on day 83. Just totally random. It could also cost some Pokédollar.



So what I mean is:

They will obtain the MEGA BUBBLE, they wont mega evolve only through the training.
You will need a Mega Stone too to evolve it.
They Quest should be hard.
It should also take a lot of time. I am talking about WEEKS. Not days.
It should cost Pokédollar everytime.
Is the Pokemon that's being super trained also a Shiny, the chances of getting a mega bubble will be lowered.
Every day a different task!

So, what do you guys think about it?

Neutral. Getting megs is supposed to be hard, but then again, it is like shiny hunting. All about luck, and that's what this is.

But the chances to get a shiny mega is more than hard. It's nearly impossible. And that supertraining isn't supposed to be an easy quest, it should be hard as well.

The random breeding is the best way, honestly. They're not supposed to be easy to get. They only evolve with a Mega Stone in the game, so that's how it should be here too. To be able to get it another way just seems wrong because then it's not like the game like you say it should be. They already have a training thing for pokemon anyway in the Salon.

They should evolve with a mega Stone too, but they will obtain this bubble with this training. And here, it's not like the game too. You're not obtaining Mega Pokemon through breeding in the game.

Support.

I love the idea. When I think about a quest system I always remember the legendary-cape quest of wow. (yes, it have to be different for sure)^^ I think that's the kind of "time effort" a person should spend, to earn a mega-pokemon on this way.

It shouldn't be too easy - so the 'Quest' have to be a enormous. But as I said before: I love the idea.

edit: because not everyone here is playing wow, I'd like to explain how this could look like:

- collecting 2 x 10 different hard-to-get items (randomly by interacting, forum posts, tall grass founds, etc)
- winning 25 battles
- 7 rumbles over 12h
- collecting 250 gems of the pokemon's type
- collecting rare gems (50-75 max) (to reinforce the upcoming special power maybe?)
.... edit here more steps to make it more difficult ;)

Support, it's great idea. Pokemon don't have to be born with Special Power, it can become Mega by training hard, it just sound great, like some kind of tale :D

Just a small hint in advance: starting a suggestion by telling that an existing feature in the game is awful is most likely not the best way to convince the creator :P

Secondly this idea sounds more like the result of an unsuccessful long hunt for a mega Pokemon, hu? :P \r\nWell I can understand that this might be a bit disappointing sometimes, though I think having to wait 86 days for a super training is disappointing, too.

Also you can not really argue that “mega evolutions have nothing to do with breeding in the original games“ since we are not an official game; no. It IS about breeding and hatching eggs on this site all of the time. So why not implement mega evolutions to be part of this main feature?

It's awfull because it can take so long and there is such a low chance to get a shiny mega Pokémon, that most people are just giving up. Even if you reached about 500 hatched Eggs, it's not sure, that you will get anything. It wasn't meant to threaten you. I love this game, you've done a really great job, but I am sure that there are many people who agree with me.
Just an example:
Senrier hatched more than 12 shinies, and didn't even get a normal mega Shuppet.
It's much more frustrating hatching egg after egg, than to train. Those trainings could be fun, but hatching eggs and do nothing else than this is reaaaally frustrating ^^ I didn't try to mega hunt anything, I just saw that on so many profiles.

Mega hunting shouldn't be frustrating either. It should be fun.
And I don't think that hard is meant to be frustrating. ^^

Instead of this, I think a better suggestion would be to raise the chance of hatching a mega Pokemon. Now if there weren't shiny forms I'd like to keep it the way it is. But since there are indeed shinies, I think the chance of hatching a megable Pokemon should just increase. This suggestion is too easy, don't you think?
Or, a special kind of Pokeradar that chains for megable Pokemon instead of shiny ones.

ninotaurus isn't talking about replacing the breeding-thing. she's just making a suggestion how to guarantee that the time spending breeding isn't wasted at all. (like in that example with senrier) it could be a second way and people could have a choice.

getting a mega able pokemon is based on luck - but it is needed for completing the pokedex (not like shinies btw). where's the problem to provide a way that is propably much longer than for a lucky user, but successfull for the ones that have no luck?

I really like this idea!

One thing i think that should be added is the following

If the pokemon being "super trained" is shiny it should have less of a chance of becoming mega bubbled.

We dont want millions of mega shinies floating around :p

Yes, that is a nice idea. I will edit that in my first post, thanks bourkey <:

And Karp:

I get the idea, but there are so many people who still have no luck at all, and it would still be frustrating. :/

I support. The mega evolution are indeed needed for dex entries. I wouldn't say that the current way is horrible..

I like the quest idea and kind of Sturmochter's idea. Maybe...

A new area in the Ancient Cave. Going there, you're told to:
You must see Prof. Rowan and have 300 dex entries before continuing.
Select the pokemon you want the mega bubble on.
Have the pokemon at X lvl.
Find a certain item or amount of item around the site. Example, coconuts (beach background).
Something to do with searching the tall grass.
Hatch whatever you get.
Turn over whatever hatches to whoever.
Gain X amount of trainerpoints.
Obtain X amount of gems/type of gem. Possibly different on which pokemon you selected.
etc..
Ending with to send that pokemon on a 12hr/(1day if available) rummble mission.

After which, you still might not get the mega bubble on that pokemon. Leaving a bit of chance still in there will make it even harder. It shouldn't take 83 days to do it all. Maybe, if they are very persistent, someone could get it all done within a week. As said, leaving some chance to it wont make it guaranteed.

However, I do like the idea of like kind of specifically hunting. It could be incorporated to keep track of which pokemon was last selected, and how many times in a row (like the radar counting the hatched eggs) it has completed the quest. Each time it's completed, and does not gain the mega bubble, then it gains a little more "luck" for next time. That is, unless the quest chain is broken by selecting a different pokemon.

Erm.. sorry for the lengthy post..

Not support. Mega pokemons and mega able ones will lose their value if everyone could obtain them only by training with them or completing some tasks, and I'm talking especially about mega event pokes. After all, it's not that hard to get a mega able pokemon, you just need some luck :)

I'd only support if it doesn't work on pokemon like charizard blaziekn and mewtwo because they are obtained with a bubble through special ways

I would only support if this thing includes leveling up the pokemon through this schedule to a very high level ex. 500 (just an example it can be higher or lower) and this should cost a little bit pd too so that not even a trainer who has signed a few hours ago starts to do it or it can be unlocked at some trainer level.

I don't actually support this.

As someone who spent my entire summer (3 whole months) to hatch a shiny mega, I feel that this isn't fair to people who have already worked for it above and beyond.

Heck, I am still proud to own the only shiny mega gengar from my three months of work, as it proves that persistence is the key to getting what you want.

And like Riako said - this game is about breeding.

If you can read this, you know how to read.
