Whenever you hatch a certain number of eggs, you receive a gem of that type.

Like if we hatch 10 or 20 normal type pokemon (slakoth, zigzagoon etc), we get one normal gem........

For rare gems like dragon or ice, the number can be increased to about 40-50.

I am not sure whether the eggs should be in sequence or not.....

I'm not sure about this, since PokeFarm has something very similar (giving you Gems at EVERY egg hatched).

Not EVERY egg, after a certain number of eggs (i didn't know it has already been implemented at the other site, but there the gems would be highly common for everybody).
If a user were to get one gem after every egg hatched, then what would be the importance of kalos eggs and rare gems like dragon and ice..

I don't support.

There already are original ways to get Gems.

Getting them with hatching, would make them too common. It would also cause an unbalance (I think...), because the rare gems would suddenly be as common as all the others, which would throw the values right out the window.

I like it fine the way it is.

No support. It would make rare gems, such as Dragon gems, lose it's value. Also if that were the case the Kalos legendary Pokemon would be so easy to get. Besides gems are generally not that hard to find anyway, the only hard gems are the rare ones.

Well Catlady, I said after a fixed number like 20 you'll get a gem...
How does it make a gem very common...
On an average, in shiny hunting, a person hatched 100 eggs, so he'll get only 5 gems...

And Angell, perhaps for that kalos thing, you'll have to hatch about 1000 pokemons of the same type, which is very difficult to do....
And for rare gems w can increase the value upto 50.

This has been suggested already and rejected.


No support though.
It wouldn't make sense if in real life, if an animal hatched holding an item.
But like I said, this has been rejected before.

So? People's chains can go as large as 200. They'll be getting a lot of gems with that. Not only that but plenty of people chain the same types. For instance, when I was done with my Cynda chain I immediately started on Charmander.

It's just going to be completely abused to get rare gems I think.

It would make them more common, because even if they only appear after a fixed number, users can just hunt a certain pokémon for its type. They don't even need to shiny hunt it. They can just decide 'I need Ice Gems' (for example) so I'll be hatching Vanilite for a while.

And if they get tired of Vanilite, they can hunt another Ice Type.

There would be less need for trades, which would lower the value, even if they only appear after a fixed number.

Well, I can answer that also, Angell and Catlady. But that is of no use, if this has already been rejected, I don't expect anyone to support.
