I think it'd be extremely useful if we had a search button in our storage boxes so you could type the name of a pokemon, or search by type, just to make things a little bit simpler.. Currently, I have to go on Notepad on my desktop and write down all of the pokemon I have in a single box, then compare that to my next box to make sure I don't have any duplicates. It's extremely time consuming, especially since I have 8 boxes to go through. It'd also be nice to have a button in one of the corners that you could click on and sort your boxes by type, rarity, lvl, etc etc. as well.. I hope you consider my suggestions!

Did my post get buried? ._. Most other posts on here have at least one response.. Is it really that bad of a suggestion? ><

Actually, if you check your Storage Boxes in 'Public View', you'll be able to search for pokémon through their name ^^' [you just need 100 or more pokémon in the box to have the option]

Well yes, but that's a really out of the way method to keep bouncing back and forth when you're trying to move Pokemon around (My computer is a dinosaur, and does not like it when I have multiple windows open).. I suggested it because I believe this site could benefit from being a little bit more streamlined with the things the user has to do.

Have you tried using command/control F? ^^ I find that that's quite an easy way to find the pokemon in question.

I don't really see why we need coding for an option for something that can already be done using browser options.

I suppose that could work. It's just a hassle because I have 10 boxes to go through, even with the Find In Page thing, it'll still take time, and I know others have even more boxes than I do.. I don't know, I just feel like something like that would be beneficial to everyone. I mean, I know this website makes a large amount of income, it's just disappointing to see it still lacking in such obvious ways after all these years.. I myself have spent over $200 just in this last month or so, and that's more than enough to pay someone to code a search bar into the storage boxes.. Anyway, off topic. Being slowed down like that is really my only issue with this game.. I love the simplistic nature of this game, it's captivating. Doing all of the things you two have mentioned above takes away from the spellbound feeling this game gives me and many others.

You can sort of already do this, though, can't you...? Sure, it's only for each box but it does help :0
