What is the necessity of having a poll when the decision is already taken? I think it will perhaps save coding and clarify users.
For better understanding, I'm suggesting that the polls are removed ONLYfrom the Implemented/Rejected suggestions.
It is not likely that the PH community will set up a vote on suggestions which are already rejected.
This suggestion is NOT to be confused with the Idea that the poll system is completely removes.

The polls come in handy, when reviewing the voters' opinions. Plus, not all suggestions are unanimously voted against.

You do know that he just wants it at the Implemented/Rejected forum, right? And also, we don't know who the voters are from the Polls because it's counted as 'Anonymous'. What's the opinion there, if they don't actually comment on a thread? Only Riako may know who voted, but unless someone replies to a particular thread, we won't know as well.
I find this option neat, and it makes 100% sense. Implemented ideas cannot be rejected, and rejected ideas cannot be implemented. No use in voting for those, right?

EDIT: Or rather, WAS wrong in this case.

I do agree with you that it explains what's wrong. However, can you point out one suggestion that doesn't have a proper reply explaining why it is wrong? Because I'm pretty sure that Polls cannot explain majority of things.
An example is the "This is SPAM" option. If you voted for the SPAM, however you did not reply what thread originated the suggestion, then how would the thread creator know why it is considered as SPAM? Doesn't he need viable proof of it? That's why replies are also made.
When a suggestion is wrong in one way or another, it is always explained why it is wrong before being moved to the rejected forum. Similarly, it is always explained why a suggestion is good for PokeHeroes and its community before being actually send to the implemented forum.
Thank you for clarifying that it was in general, I wouldn't have known otherwise.
