On other sites, as well as in the main games, users have the option to hatch their eggs or not.
On here, though, the eggs will hatch whether you want them to or not.

My suggestion is to implement a way to choose to keep an egg from hatching if you want to. (Could be a one-time purchase of a special item to give this option. Edit: Could also be a limited time use item. [Thanks Diana for the idea])

The default will stay at hatching once the egg is ready to hatch, where the user will have to specifically set it for every egg they want to keep from hatching.



The reason I am mentioning this is for the shiny hunters on here who start a hunt and might accidentally get an egg they don't want to hatch and break their chain. (Which is possible, seeing as how I clicked one egg in the lab and it had just changed before I clicked, so I got a different pokémon than the one I was trying to snag)


I didn't see anything of this sort in the 5 or so pages I've gone through in this forum, so if it was already mentioned, please forgive me.
Also not something major, just something I've noticed.

No support.
I personally like the egg hatching system the way it is. It's unique.


1. If this was to be implemented, shiny hunting wouldn't be so 'hard'. This game is supposed to be a 'challenge', which means trying not to adopt/hatch other eggs while hunting.

2. The 'Chosen Egg', on the index page. If the egg is ready to hatch, it would stay on the page until the user chooses to hatch it, otherwise, nobody will be able to interact with it, and it wont update with new eggs.

3. It's quick and efficient if it just hatches itself. In real life, you don't decide when you want an egg to hatch. It just hatches when it needs to.

4. If your using a click list and you come upon an egg which is ready to hatch, you won't be able to interact with it, and wont be able to carry on with the click list.

Well, if it was a special item, the egg hatching system would stay the way it is unless you have the item bought. That's why I offered that as the how it would be added. (and that also makes it cost nuggets)

And it would stay as is unless specified otherwise for that specific egg.

I like the system as well, just it doesn't fit the theme of the main games or any other adoptable site I've been on. *shrugs* But thank you for your reply and opinion :3

Hmm, maybe if it's an item that works like the flutes (limited time)...

*Updated my other post*.

To add on - I really don't think we need a whole new item just for that...

There is something planned that is kind of similar to this idea ;)
