Please, let us to able or disable our name permission on Mass Click. Me and a lot of players are being prejudiced by this feature.

A good solution for this problem is to allow boxes to be configured to appear or not in Mass Click.



Thank you for your attention, and sorry for my bad engish.

But wouldn't the Pokemon in those boxes still appear in the "Random Pokemon" clicklist?
Most of them would still be interacted with - not through the mass-click feature.

How are you being prejudiced by the feature?
Either people put in your name, or they don't... I don't see how you can have ill-effects from the first...

@CatLady:
"Luckily" I only have 360 different PKMNs, but still, this feature forces me to put an Everstone in most of them, just to don't lose dex.

@Toothless:
Very easy, just make this new configuration remove the PKMNs on thix box to appear on "Random Pokémon" ¬¬

Since there is no sense in allowing PKMNs inside a box be trained.

That's why there are Everstones :o
I sorted all my boxes yesterday and gave Everstones to all the Pokémon which shouldn't evolve and it took me about 45 minutes for about 400 Pokémon. I don't mind spending this time on sorting them, though, since it's nothing that you have to do every day.
And from now on you can start putting Everstones to your Pokémon right after they hatched. Everstones aren't expensive after all and they're always available at the Item Shop.

Yeah, you did not mind losing this time doing it. But it would be ethical if you allow what others had a choice.

There is a way out of almost everything in this world, but it never hurts to have a little common sense and make things easier. Would just be a great addition to your game that is so addictive.

Give the Pokemon an Everstone, or troll somebody by telling them if they stop interacting the Pokemon you will give them a shiny/legendary, then when they stop, don't :3

Sorry, but no support - pretty much for the reasons stated.
Nobody is forced to Mass-click you, and if they do, at least appreciate the fact that they spent some time interacting with your Pokemon.
If you're worried about Pokemon evolving, give them everstones, which are always available in the itemshop.

It's nothing new that pokémon in boxes can get interacted with; it's also nothing new that pokémon need an everstone if you don't want them to evolve.

You could've given them everstones as soon as they hatched, because the above mentioned is common knowledge on this site, and the possibility to give (get) mass clicks has been long in the making.

Honestly, this just sounds like laziness... (So, no support)

I just took about ten minutes to go through my pokedex box and start handing out everstones to the Pokemon that needed them. It's not that bad. Those fully evolved don't need them, those who can only evolve holding an item or trading didn't need them, so that took out a chunk of Pokemon that don't need everstones.

If you find giving your Pokemon an Everstone is too much (not sure why you would considering this is a clicking site so chances are you'll spend more time interacting than you will this) then prioritize which Pokemon need everstones and which don't. Maybe give your starters everstones first before your other Pokemon since they're more rare than others. Look at which ones are close to evolving and need one. Don't take the whole load of Pokemon at once if you don't want to, they're your Pokemon so just get to them when you feel like.

They may evolve, but again they're your Pokemon and your responsibility so if that happens try and either replace them or don't. It's your decision.

I can give a Everstone to 500 PKMNs in 20 minutes (or less), cuz I have my tricks (not softwares or cheats). But the point here is two:

¹What is the sense of the PKMN be trained inside the box?

²Unless this permission is given, which would arguably wiser.

When I make a suggestion, it's not for me, it's for my friend,s it's for newbie players, it's for the game quality, and when I give or not my SUPPORT to one suggestion, I think the same.

Just try to evaluate things with a little common sense, instead of thinking, "this would be good for me?"

Well the reason why you made the suggestion I don't think matters as much as what the suggestion would do and if it's actually helpful. Also the "common sense" thing to do would be give your Pokemon an Everstone if you don't want it to evolve.

The "common sense" behind interacting with Pokemon in boxes is that if you can only interact with Pokemon in a user's party then nothing is getting leveled up. Most people have eggs in their party anyway. So if people can't interact with anything other than eggs 90% of the time, then Pokemon won't level up or evolve at that point.

The "common sense" thing here is: newbies won't have 500+ Pokemon at once. So they can give their Pokemon everstones as they get them. People should use the everstones provided to halt evolution, and take advantage of getting level ups along the way. So you do give permission to your Pokemon already: giving it an Everstone is telling it not to evolve. Not giving an Everstone to a Pokemon is giving it permission to evolve.

If your biggest worry is that your Pokemon will evolve, or the Pokemon of newbies and friends apparently you're more concerned about, then give them an Everstone. There's already a solution to this problem of things evolving in boxes.

So no support.

I actually support this suggestion. Not because of evolution reasons, but because I exclude one box from my custom clicklists before because it's the junk/sort/landing box and not one that needs interactions. I'd rather be able to hide the 100+ group from the mass-clicking, making it a little easier on the people who want to interact with me that way, while also giving the rest of my pokemon more of a chance to gain levels (since I'm sure someone gets bored about half-way through, lol)


But using this to JUST avoid evolving? That's just lazy. Everstones aren't expensive, and I keep them on most of my pokemon to prevent them from evolving, which is part of the game play and has been since before the feature was added.

Although I would support for the purposes of not getting wasted clicks on boxes that don't matter (as stated by Navuso), I simply can't because of all of the ways this could be abused.
You're not SUPPOSED to be able to prevent Pokémon from evolving unless you use an Everstone. That is the whole point of Everstones. They're so inexpensive they might as well be free.
The point of this suggestion isn't to make things user-friendly; it's to make things easy. That's not "common sense;" it's oversimplification for the sole purpose of laziness.
There's a difference between suggesting something to make it convenient without removing the challenge and just suggesting something to make it easier. This is the latter, and because of that, I can't support.

No support, i've seen people with loads of PD buying gems and all that never used everstones at all. And now there saying "don't click me"
I found out in thh beginning that investing in everstones is worth it all if you care about the number of pokedex entries.

What Riako said about "always being available" is not true. They always are sold out! That might actually be another suggestion in itself, to have more everstones in stock

Actually that suggestion was made, and implemented, increasing the stock of everstones. 9/10 they're in the shop. You should check more often to get some.

Funnily enough, I was just thinking of buying more everstones XD

Now, that aside, I don't support. Pretty much for the reasons already stated, but I also don't see how this "prejudice" against someone. Plus, if this really is for for newbie friends, it doesn't make sense purely because they should want their Pokemon to evolve ;) Do they expect to win any battles full of "baby" Pokemon?
