I'm 99% sure i haven't saw this suggested before so im just gonna throw this out there.

So, when we select pokemon in boxes we have a 'deselect all' option, but why isn't there a select all option?
Shiny hunters like me can end up with boxes with over 200 pokemon that we simply don't want, but instead of being able to just click a 'select all' button we have to go through the box and click the checkbox of each individual pokemon, just so we can release them all, which is just a waste of time, in my opinion.
Now i know alot of you are going to say "Why don't you just select them in small groups then?"
again, also a waste of time if you could just click a 'Select all' button and then click 'release'

To help explain what I'm trying to get across, here's a screenshot of what we have now:

And this is what im suggesting for there to be:

Note: It doesn't have to be exactly like this, this is just how i personally picture it.



Now i know this seems like a relatively small suggestion, but i think it will help people alot, honestly.
So thank you for reading, and i await your opinions on this matter.

Yes! This would be awesome.
Currently trying to tidy up my boxes and it's driving me mad!

The reason i suggested this was actually because im a non-premium member and im trying to shiny hunt like 6 charmanders and my box is slowly filling up XD
and the pain of trying to select all 200+ charmanders (And evolutions) just to release them is way too much for me to handle XD
i was also playing flight rising so the thought kinda just struck me while i was looking at my hoard.

I honestly can't remember if it has been suggested before but heck, I 1000000% support this, it's dang frustrating selecting one pokemon at a time >_>

I'm 99% sure that this has been suggested (and rejected) before, because of two reasons:
a) This would probably increase the amount of "oops, accidentally released a shiny/mega-able/very rare Pokémon please bring it back"
b) If you still want to take the risk of accidentally releasing something rare (or in case you are very careful with your box organisation), then you can install one of many browser add-ons that do exactly that. There are add-ons that help you to multi-select lots of checkboxes. :)
