I just thought of another radar. If this becomes implemented, this is how I would like it to be working:
1.The normal radar (the one we have now).
Descripion:
This radar will be able to hatch both shiny and mega.
Other:
It costs 250k in the shop.
2.The shiny radar (the idea of mine).
Descripion:
This radar is able to hatch only shinies.
Other:
It costs 200k in the shop.
3.The mega radar (the one you suggested).
Descripion:
This radar is able to hatch only shinies.
Other:
TIt costs 150k in the shop.

no support like riako said its based on certain factors and besides its ok right now and would be unfair if it would be like that

I support on this..

When the pokeradar says"it saves the chain of your hatched pokemon" only for shinies

Then the Mega Radar says "saves the chain of your hatched pokemon and can only hatch a mega able"
We probably need this if it is not implemented then all users can have bad luck at hunting mega ables

I don't support this -

First, I've hunted a shiny mega, and I can tell you that for every 100-ish eggs in a hunt, I am getting a mega.

I know you state that this won't affect shinies and you can't do them at once, but every factor goes in.

And since there is (1/100) on average, it is already really good considering. I've had longer chains without shinies using premium and the radar.

I hate to say this, but your suggestion seems like a way for people to get to do less work for a mega. And if mega chances are raised, the random shiny mega chances are also raised, unless you insure that these can't hatch shiny which no one would do.

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

Quote from meI'd prefer it to stay "random" than for it to be made harder.
Quote from RiakoActually 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.


With this being known, this means the more advanced players who more likely have higher unknown factors are more likely to hatch mega-ables. It's not one individual unchanging value like shiny hunting without the radar is. This means that while for some of us it's more common, others it's much less common. And if, by some chance, there's a way to get where megas hatch 1 in every 50 (Dunno what the odds are, as I don't know any of the variables, lol) then if there were a mega-radar it would have to drop the base chances to bring them back up to that amount. (Which is about where the Shiny Radar for premium users is at max chances)


So, as I said before, if it would drop mega chances in order to make the radar work to increase chances, I would much rather keep to the "random" variables instead. And as the conversation shows, depending on where you are at for the unknown variables, your mega chances are the same or better than a shiny hunt on the radar without premium ;)

I could support it but, the Mega Radar upgrade should not be cheap. It should be either 100M or 150 Big Nuggets to get so that way it balances it out but, it might just be me.

but wouldn´t it be cool to know the chance? I mean..that it just calculates all influences and then shows the percentage and then shows just like the shiny box how many you already hatched? and based on that shows your chance to get a shiny mega by calculating with shiny and mega rate?

honestly I am HORRIBLE at maths and pc stuff and have no Idea if this is maybe to much work but I just think this would be quite cool
They/them pronouns please

@AkaruiShiro
There never was a fixed chance when it comes for mega powered pokemon. Unlike shinies, the chances for an user to get a mega powered pokemon is truly random.
