I have some ideas ; for new items. I wanted to suggest it, because, I thought that many people may like it. Although, if you dont like it, then, you are allowed to point out the flaws.

1. Battle Bonder : There are many Greninja Fans all over PH. Something that all the fans may want, is, Ash-Greninja. I suggest a new item named 'Battle Bonder' which will allow us to change Greninja's form into Ash-Greninja. It is not for any specific reason, but, just a minor update that's fun.
2. Rainbow Mystery Box/White Mystery Box : We already have mystery boxes and keys of different colours. What if we had White/Rainbow Mystery Box. It could contain some rare items. I would add any other new items in this list, so just keep check.
3. Shine Changer : Shinies have a default shiny color. Im suggesting, that, we could get a 'Shine Changer' item from mystery boxes. It would be listed under Forme-Change Items (or any other category Riako wants), and we could use it to change the color of a shiny Pokemon. The sole reason is, many trainers, have their favorite shinies, but, they turn out to be a disliked colour. This would enable them to change is Color.
That's all for now!🤗🤗🤗

the shine changer its unnecessary and i dont like it

Full support it seems useful for unique pokemon

I don’t support this:

1. You have to go to the spriters directly if you want an event idea since Riako likes to keep them as a surprise, so your posting the suggestion here has made it nearly impossible to implement it.

2. This sounds interesting, but tbh it’s just more mystery boxes :/ if the mystery boxes had some cool new item like you said I may support.

3. Recoloring every single shiny Pokémon sprite would be an impossible task, and plus it’s Nintendo/Game Freak’s decision to make shinies the color they are. I just don’t like this. It’s so unnecessary.

---

The last one is just a overkill to the spirites here...

A new mystery box is a good idea

I would prefer ash-greninja to be a event mon rather then having a item to do so

---

Overall, no support; in-depth:

1. Battle-bonder: I'm neutral on this. I'm a fan of Greninja, but personally don't care for Ash-Greninja. It was a neat concept for the anime, but in-game it honestly doesn't make sense why Greninja changes forms to look like, well... some random 10 year old kid from Pallet Town. So, I can see reasons to want it (because it's a neat form and more Greninja content), and I can see reasons to not want it (because we're not Ash so why should we get his Greninja?). And as MY_IRENE said, making a suggestion thread for possible events just makes them less likely to be chosen, so... 🤷‍♂️?
Edit: Some clarification on this, since my reason-against-it caused some confusion... If the Greninja was an event on its own instead of a form-change item, I'd be less against it. But the purpose of a Greninja turning into Ash Greninja, was because its strong bond with its trainer caused it to take on part of Ash's appearance. So if we made the bond with the Greninja, it wouldn't make sense for it to look like some random kid from Pallet Town instead of us. Getting it pre-transformed would be less contradictory(?), though, since it would actually be Ash's Greninja instead of "some ordinary Greninja who turned into Ash for some unknown reason". So... I'm still neutral either way.

2. Rainbow/white mystery box: We already have a box set that isn't being used at all; the silver mystery box. We have no need to make more, when we apparently don't even have enough stuff to fit in all the colours we already have. Now, if this were a suggestion as to what to do with silver mystery box, I'd be inclined to support, but "No support" for adding more boxes that most likely will never be used anyway.

3. Shine changer: Prettymuch what MY_IRENE and pokemonblack said, plus some points of my own: I've recoloured sprites before, and let me tell you, it's not something you can just do. It's really not as simple as just "select area slide colour around". Pokemon sprites tend to try and use as few colours as possible; and that means that they'll reuse the body colour for the outlines if it's dark enough. Trying to turn a dark colour into a light colour, turns the outlines that light colour too in most cases. It looks god-awful. So if this were to be implemented, it would have to be VERY limiting in order to keep the sprites from looking like hot garbage; that, or the spriters would have to go through and change the way the outlines work so that they don't change with the rest of the colours, and that's entirely too much work on them if it's even possible to do. No support.

I say its a recorol it yourself type of thing its easy for the admins idc about the rest just the shiny thing

---

Title: Neat, I guess.

Aye.

I love the idea of adding Ash-Greninja.
We might not be ash, But there's this Pikachu version of ash already either.
Since this pikachu's kinda aimed to be ash, Why not adding a greninja either, But instead, Maybe make it a event pokemon either just like that ash pikachu pokemon. But adding ash hats at the previous evolutions or something so it stays unique, y'know?

I love the idea of the rainbow mystery box / key, Knowing it'd spread pride stuff a bit more further in my feeling.
I think the white mystery box / key already existed, Just unused / unobtainable, Such as the black key, if correctly it ain't exactly avaible either, I can recall myself of pokeheroes adding zekrom / reshiram with those boxes / keys, Though ik i'm dumb so maybe i'm wrong.

I sorta dislike the 3rd idea, It's a fun idea, But people will continue making sprites, Maybe it'd be better if people could make their own collors, But i'd feel like people would abuse their powers then.
Soo, Ig we just, Shouldn't do it. We already have shinies and shadows and events, i'd feel like that's enought to be working at / updating.

Love the fact you try to be creative tho. Keep it up <3


Edit: I'd be spending all my event points to purchase the ash pikachu egg, So you can all later see what i exactly ment. And why ash greninja is a nice idea.

Here we go, Currently a egg. Future Ash-Pikachu.

TLDR; no support for any of these, the first one prob wont be added as they try and keep event pokemon a mystery, and the other two are just useless.

1 Battle-bonder Not to beat a dead horse, but as the others have said before me, it would be a cool concept. I never watched the anime myself but im sure a lot of people who watched it would love to see this added. However- every time an event pokemon has been suggested out in public, it has been rejected. The staff work as hard as they can to keep new pokemon a secret- double for event pokemon.

2 Rainbow Box/Key To put it as nicely as i can, this is useless. We already have an used box set {silver} you can not get in-game. On top of that we already have boxes with a higher rate of rare items, that being gold + black. Adding a new set this late into the games history would feel just lazy and upsetting that times going into coding things that we already have.

3 Shine changer This would be a nightmare to code- and to use. Pokeheroes out of events sticks as close to the original pokemon game. Game freak (and its ai) picked the pallet for each one.

01. Battle Bonder:
I'd have to agree with everyone else and say it seems neat and all, but kind of overkill with Ash-Greninja. The Battle Bond Ability itself is a game-exclusive and the anime had Ash's Greninja become Ash-Greninja specifically because of how deeply bonded the two were together. I would second with DustyZoiveon said in regards to "some random Greninja changed formes." Also beating a dead horse by saying you should directly approach the Spriters with Event ideas to prevent spoiling in case they do get implemented in the future.

02. Rainbow & White Mystery Items:
Considering we already have the unreleased & unobtainable Silver Mystery Box & Key, I'm going to have to no support. It also really has no substance except "It could contain some rare items." and to "add any other new items in this list", so basically it would destroy the economy in people trying to open these boxes in order to get some new, "rare" item.

03. Shine Changer:
Just--- no.

How can you have a favorite shiny that you dislike the color? The point of Shiny Pokemon is exclusively one alteration. If we had purple Greninjas on-site all of the sudden, that would be pretty weird honestly. Plus repeating in mentioning all the work the poor Spriters would have to go through. We already have Event Pokemon and Shadow Pokemon, I don't think this is needed whatsoever.

No support for any of these

1.tbh I don’t really have an opinion on this one but like the others said, the spriters prefer to keep the events as a surprise so it’ll be rejected anyways

2.we have enough mystery boxes anyways, so no, besides we have rarer mystery box with a higher chance of getting a rare item ie gold and black mystery boxes

3. Just no, it’ll be a disaster for spriters to sprite every Pokemon’s color in the game with every other color in existence, it makes no fudging sense and I could go on but everyone said my points too so yeah
