I've been spending some time in the Safari Zone lately, and I noticed a few patterns:

1. I tend to run out of Poffins before I run out of Pokeballs.
2. Sometimes, when I do run out of Poffins, there's still quite some time left in the Safari (over two minutes)
3. Sometimes the "hover for hotkeys" box gets in the way when trying to catch Pokemon that show up on the bottom of the screen.


I've been thinking about it, and I came up with a couple suggestions:

1. I'm suggesting either increasing the number of Poffins (50-55 instead of 40) or decreasing the number of Pokeballs (15 to 10). That would even out the things a little bit more, since I have never ran out of Pokeballs while still with a bunch of Poffins.

2. There could be a button to exit the Safari. The only way to exit the Safari right now is to either wait out until the timer runs out, or to run out of Pokeballs. Since I'm usually left with 7-8 Pokeballs at a time, without any Poffins to spare, and there's over two minutes left in the timer, I try and use up the Pokeballs (by throwing them into nothingness). There's always a chance of accidentally throwing it at a random Pokemon - and I wouldn't want to break my chain because of it).

3. Instead of having the box with hotkeys INSIDE the Safari playing area, have it UNDERNEATH. That way, it wouldn't get in the way of Pokemon you're trying to catch that show up mostly at the bottom of the screen, and in case you forget a hotkey (somehow) they'll always be there.
Something like this maybe?



Lemme know what you think. ouo

Or you are shiny chaining and there are none of the pokemon you are hunting in the safari zone. Always fun to wait those five minutes out.

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

Most of the time this is me because Vivillon are evil. If the day ever came that I did use all my poffins or all my pokeballs in one safari run, that first suggestion would be helpful.

And definitely support the second suggestion. I don't understand why the box was inside since it's inconvenient.

I'm definitely for the exit button suggestion, bc im also trying to get all the vivillon, but I also have a bit of a tip.
Whenever i'm in the zone, if I see a pokemon i'm chaining, I always throw 5 Poffins at it before a pokeball, because that will increase the chance of capture, and slow them down to the minimal speed


Rest in Peace, Tasca

Support! I love the idea of this, especially knowing I have that problem too. I always have to limit 3 poffins to a Pokeball sometimes, so it doesn't do well at all. It would be nice to get more poffins and less Pokéballs.

There's nothing more beautiful than the rain.

I'm also thinking of suggesting switching up the default speed and the speed when you hold shift.

I noticed that I speed up 95% of the time, especially when I'm looking for Pokemon, and pressing shift all the time kinda gets unpractical after a while. So it'd be nice to have the default speed be fast, and to press shift to slow down.

What do you guys think?

Same, I support this. I usually end up using all my poke poffins and then end up throwing Pokeballs at random place and Pokemon.
