Just a thought.

I was wondering if it is possible for us (non-premium and premium members) to have a higher chance of breeding when we INTERACT with pokemon.

For shiny hunters like myself, it is extremely frustrating when our daycare does not breed for an entire day (unlucky) or even half a day.

If we were able to somehow control the outcome of breeding an egg, it will help us greatly.

My suggestion is, people who interact with pokemon via the union room should be guaranteed an egg after a specific amount of interactions. This can be, one egg every 1000 interactions and so forth.
That egg will be produced(100%) during the next hour rotation.

Of course, the 1000 interactions per egg is just a random number. Can be more, can be less.

Pros:
People interact more due to them wanting their shiny hunt eggs.
People hatch more eggs :P
More activity on site

Cons:
Discuss.

Do not support at all. The whole point of shiny hunting is that it is hard, somewhat random, and challenging. That feeling when your egg comes out after the 50th egg, 100th egg, 200th egg is wonderful. A wave of excitement and relief. Taking that away to make this easier just defeats the purpose.

Shiny hunting is time consuming and challenging that's the point. Saying "I want an easier way to get shinies" is like saying "I want an easier way to get legendaries" it wouldn't make them legendary anymore if you got them for every 1000 interactions.

Again, I do not support. Makes things too easy.

How is it too easy?
You are getting 1 egg from the daycare with 100% chance when you get 1000 interactions.
The same shiny ratio still affects it which is determined by the amount of chain you are at.

Judging from your profile, you only have 6k clicks in a total of 9 days.
So basically you get 6 eggs(100% chance) out of 9 days time.
That is pretty fair to say the least.

I think you misunderstood my post. The shiny ratio stays. This is just a way for players to work for an egg that will also boast activity on the clicking section of this game.
It is still extremely challenging and i fail to see the downside of this. (from your post)

I don't support still, the system is fine as is and trying to make eggs easier to get through interactions seems unnecessary. People will interact because they want their eggs to get clicks, for events, etc. giving another bonus for doing so is also unnecessary. I think you're over exaggerating in terms of "extremely challenging".

The system is fine and I still do not support.

I don't think this is needed. Some people get 13+ eggs per day with the right breeding pair, so you can't really say that we are getting not much eggs out of the Daycare. Plus there are possibilities to use the Tall Grass and the Gem Collector for addidtional eggs.

@lunagillian
People generally don't interact that much. They just stall around and wait for others to click their pokemon. People do not need to click in order to get clicks.
Sure the event system promotes clicking. However, there are times when there are no events. Boom, lack of clicking activity.

Still have yet to give a reason why this system is bad.

@Mirej
Some people get 13+ eggs per day with the right breeding pair.
I have the right breeding pair and a few days ago... i got 3 eggs out of a 48 hour period.
Moreover, i generally get 4 eggs per day if lucky.
Tall Grass works, however it does not work for every pokemon. Many are at the "0" amount in tall grass.
Yes, Gem Collector is still a possibility. 80 Gems per egg sounds fine, however, most of the time it involves trading with other players in order to get the appropriate amount.

I have stopped clicking for a few days due to the lack of rewards + people clicking back. I do not see a problem with 1 egg per 1000 interactions.

That's a huge assumption, there is interactions going on. Not to sound personal but I think you are basing this idea on a solution for you and you only, because you have shot down already reasonable reasons why this suggestion is not a good one, and you see already there isn't any support. Maybe YOU don't get a lot of clicks, but you have to ask, are YOU clicking people? Which you admitted you don't really. And I see you have a shiny hunt, are you trying this idea because you are upset with waiting? If so then you're being impatient and this suggestion is just to make the game easier for you.

If you don't want to click people regularly, if shiny hunting takes too long for you, and/or if you feel getting eggs are too slow then maybe this isn't the game for you :/

A huge assumption that people aren't clicking that much?
Before the event system started, it took us nearly a week to fill up the lovemeter. Now that we have an event system that is going on which is encouraging more people to click, we are filling up the lovemeter faster. Lately it has slowed down due to people already obtaining the event pokemon and stopped clicking that often.

^ Judge the amount of people that click.
Oh, no this is not about me getting clicks at all. I hatch eggs rather easily if i click or not. Still takes the same amount of time.

Yes, i am upset with waiting on daycare eggs that is produced at a random pace. By having a more controlled method of achieving an egg will promote gamers to do what it takes to get it.

People can just as easily log on every 5 hours and get eggs from daycare (if there are any) and log off.
Other players who are consistent with this game should have a method in getting eggs that will benefit the game as well. This means being online, active and interacting with other pokemon.

Need to set inactive players from active ones where active ones can do things in order to further their progress.

Of course, i can't argue if this game was made for casual gamers and do not try to benefit the active ones.

Alright well I doubt, highly, that this will be changed since the system has been going well so far so I'm not going to state more reasons why this flawed and lazy for others to do.

I don't support.

No support.
I mean, what? I hardly interact AT ALL, so this wouldn't be a help to many users who don't click a lot.
And, just hatch the same egg until you get a male and female. Put them in the daycare, then it's almost a 70-80 percent chance of breeding. No support.

As i pointed out
Suppose to be a system for active, interactive players :S
The chance of breeding is not stated(i think)

This system is for people with already a male + female couple in there. (misunderstood?)
But pretty sure it is way lower than 70-80%.

If you have two Pokemon of the same species, opposite genders, and different OTs (and I think holding an everstone has something to do with it), then it will be a 70% chance of breeding. It will say "The two seem to get along very well" or something like that :p As a premium member, the chance will be even higher than that, so Victory_Fire is right about that.

It would still be ineffective, and kind of... Annoying to the users who barley interact,and I highly doubt the system will be changed.\r\nNo, I did not mistunderstand. I'm pretty sure I just broke my chain of bred growlithes from a female-male pair ._. And that was a wild guess. Asuming the same level area, same Pokémon, and they can breed, I'd say it was around 70-80. Just my opinion. Well, all I can say is good luck on getting supports because unless you spark a miracle, no support from me.

Oh really Tina.
That is new news for me. (NEW NEWS) You should post it in wiki somewhere ^_^.

I guess, i must've been rather unlucky to have not gotten any eggs over a 36 hour period with a 70% rate going about.

@Victory
So basically people who interact and people who don't interact should receive the same thing. I guess i misunderstood you :S Not really sure what you mean(still) Unless.. you are talking about cross gender breeding. Still confused :(

In any case, already stated this before.
"Of course, i can't argue if this game was made for casual gamers and do not try to benefit the active interactive ones."

Lastly, it doesn't really matter now. If it is truly a 70% chance as Tina is saying, i don't mind if this gets implemented or not. Sometimes people just strike unlucky i guess.
Just a way for more interactions among active players.

I thought I stated pretty clearly.
and I KNOW you said it would be for users who interact. You don't need to tell me twice.
I said, if I was breeding, unless it's Ditto, you can only breed Male-Female (Unless by luck, you somehow get an egg by have the same genders XD).

No support... Sorry.
We premium members normally get lots of eggs everyday, and some just go to the lab since we didn't have enough time to claim it xD

When I was a non-premium, I used to get 10-15 eggs a day, and I think the chances is still good for non-premiums, so I don't think this would be necessary.

To add on, premium wouldn't mean much.

The consensus is 'no support', so not wanted.
