Well... Probably everyone will just say no, but I'll suggest it anyways ;)
(Who knows? Maybe it won't be that bad xD)
Like the title says I want to suggest something similar to Shiny Radar, but for Mega hunts. I don't have to write how it works because I think everyone know how Shiny one works. The only thing I would add is that hunting both Shiny and Mega with Radars at the same time would be too "easy" (especially it would be a lot easier to get Shiny Mega Pokemon), so I thought they should be used one at a time: If I am Shiny hunting - I can't turn on the Mega Radar; and when I'm Mega hunting - I can't turn on the Shiny Radar. Simple ;)
Waiting for everyone's opinions.
Edit: Auto-reset Mega Radar after getting Mega Pokemon (even when Premium), lower % than Shiny Radar.
Edit2: For the people who are still against this idea I thought about it once more - and even if we get Mega-able Pokemon more often - even as often as Shiny ones (I'm talking only about the same % chance for the radar) than this won't change the chance to get Mega Stone, so it wouldn't affect amount of Mega Pokemon on site that much to be something to worry about.

No support really, because you can Mega Hunt and Shiny Hunt at the same time. And maybe if you're lucky enough, then you might get a few mega even before shiny appears.

Well I haven't post any percentages, but it could always be a lower chance than with Shiny Radar?

Edit: I'm just saying, that I'm sure Riako won't let them to be too easy to get.

I would support if the Mega Radar is:
Either
1. A "malfunctioning" upgrade for the pokeRadar, which may reset randomly.
2. Always resets when you get a mega.

@BlackSD - you're right I didn't write this but I was thinking about auto-reset after getting Mega Pokemon (even with Premium).
As for 1. I think that separation from Shiny hunt and auto reset after getting and lower percentage would be sufficient.

Considering the fact that you only can have one of the Radars active, I SUPPORT~

Having only one active at a time is the one thing that makes me say "SUPPORT!"

I may never use it, though, since I like doing shiny hunts more, but on the other hand when I was doing the Houndour shiny hunt, I would have ended it and gone for a Mega Houndour hunt after I got the first two shinies. So there are times when I might consider using it.

However, Mega chances seem higher than base shiny chances. If this were to be done, would that drop the base chance of getting a Mega? Because if it does, then I don't think it's worth it so that people can try to hunt them. I'd prefer it to stay "random" than for it to be made harder.

I don't think the base chance would change, because it wasn't changed for Shinys.

Support. This is a good idea. I don't think it'd change the rarity, either since most people get their Mega at around 100 eggs, so I doubt having something like this would ruin the rarity and whatnot, if it has the right max percentage.

Take ALL MY SUPPORT.
I don't know how many Mawiles I've hatched since I'm not premium but probably more than 340.
And a single Mega powered *sigh*

Actually it isn't "random". And remembering that fact, I don't really support it anymore :b
I totally forgot that there isn't a set chance for mega Pokémon - it's rather based on certain factors, influences and stuff.

Hm, I see. So stuff like, say, Trainer Level can affect that? Well, that's definitely something to think about, as I thought it was random before.

That's why random was in quotes, Riako :p I know it's not completely random, but it seems that way given the different factors (most of which I don't know). I just know that most random things aren't random. And I'd rather keep it at the "random" chance than to be harder. With the added information that there's a range of things to affect it leads my support with certain things taken into account to a no support in light of new information.

@Riako
Well then Mega Radar could work as an additional factor?
I don't know how it works now, but let's say that it's like that:
Factor1: +0,5%
Factor2: +1%
Factor3: +0,25%

and then it could be that Mega Radar gives +0,1% per 10 the same Pokemon hatched - max 100 which would give max +1%

(Numbers are only theory and like I said I don't know if it works like this xD)
