How many of you sort your Pokemon by their region? Many of you I would assume. Organization is one thing that many users try to maintain in their lives. Whether it's by keeping track of all their information neatly in a journal, or separated boxes for each region in your storage boxes.

Now for another question; How many of you have a box that sits at the beginning of all your boxes, that collects any Pokemon you receive? I'm sure we all have that one box that is first in line to receive any Pokemon you may have traded or bought from another user when your party is full, which they normally are.

One problem I've come to realize with sorting in your boxes, is that you can't exactly tell if you have Pokemon A in Box A or not, but you have it in say, your Holding or Extra box. My suggestion is that there should be a type of search or find tool that searches all your boxes to find where you may have Pokemon A at.

Example: Say I wanted to find where all my Beedrill were located at. I could easily hit the 'Find Pokemon' button, type in Beedrill or its Dex Number, and it could show me which boxes it is located in.
I made a screenshot example of what it could look like. Please refer to the spoiler below to see it.


Now I know this could deal with a bunch of coding (obviously), but seeing as we have a search function for the Auction House, GTS, PokeDex, and now the Berry Market as well, I do not believe it would be too hard to do.

Pro's:
*Improved Searching
*Faster to Find Pokemon
*Finding Duplicates
*Organized

Cons:
*Coding
*Another Feature (Some users may not find it helpful)

I would love to hear your thoughts and any other suggestions that could be added onto this. Thank you!~

I think this would be useful as boxes get bigger or you purchase more can be a hassle to find some with the auto ordering feature.

Yas someone finally puts one out there, I support fully, cause whenever I wanna find a pokemon, I have to have another tab open to search it in my boxes on my profile, and then come back to storage and look for it all over again

I think this would be a good idea, but I just want to point out that you can also just CTRL+F in a specific box and see if the pokemon is in there. I did this the other day to sort my pokemon. Yes, the CTRL+F way requires you to click in each specific box until you find the pokemon, but it still works.
