Not sure if this has been suggested before, but personally, I feel that Hangman should give more GC. 5 rounds of Hangman nets you about 375 GC, while a single round of Concentration (Hard) can give you about 5000 GC. Concentration doesn't require much thinking, most can easily solve it with a pen and paper by their side, but Hangman requires you to think, even if you knew all Pokemon, Items and Abilities at your fingertips.

I'm neutral
Correct me, but what you want is Hangman to give more GC just because it's hard? What makes it so hard? You could, if you wanted to, ask someone if you didn't know or search the word online. Even if it didn't give much GC, still, you could play a different game.

Then on the other side, Concetration is too easy, you are right. It should atleast give 500 GC. Other than that, no changes.

Eh, whatever works, but it's more of balancing out the GC payout, whether decreasing concentration or increasing Hangman. And how does one search words related to Pokemon (or Pokémon themselves, their names aren't words in the dictionary)? Plus, certain words such as "Trainerlevel" or "Pokedollar" are only found on Pokeheroes.

Also, let's look at the games
Lottery: You're almost guaranteed to get lesser GC than you spent, especially if you buy a lot of tickets
Higher or Lower: You can make a guess, but it's still pretty luck based
Coinflip: Double or nothing, 1/2 chance you get double what you paid
Treasure Hunt: 1/9 chance that you get the right box, 1/2 chance you get GC. That makes a 1/18 chance of getting GC, and you don't even know how much you're getting
Golden Slot: Luck based.
Hangman: First round gives 25 GC, second 50, then about 100, 100 and 175.
Concentration: Pay 5000 GC, get around 10000. Profit of about 5000 GC. It's the highest and most consistent game.

Maybe there could be other non luck based games. Plus, the other person may not know either. You also need to have made some progress before the other person can help, no point asking if you only know _e_i_a_ _ _. (It's Relicanth by the way)

I thought it was amazzing idea until i read the comments and made me think we should just reduce the concentration game
