Forum Thread

We all have a gift idea for a friend, or maybe a rare pokemon we don't want people to know we have. Maybe it is a pokemon you like but you are embarrassed by it. Then a hidden box can help you.
The idea is it is like the egg storage, but for pokemon. The prices will remain the same.
Now I can already hear. "But Ricky! This can be used to steal pokemon you borrowed!" and yes forum section you are right. That is why it should be designed so only the original trainer can put it in the box.
Please give feedback if you have the time.

is that a protomario reference? XD and I like the idea

It was a protomraio reference.

---

knew it ^o^

---

Eh- no support from me.
The idea of a box that other people could manipulate isn't exactly something that appeals to me.

---

I see. So you think others should be able to put Pokemon with other original trainers in the boxes too, or no support as a whole?

---

I just don't like the idea of a "hidden" box in general, unfortunately. While I can understand the principles involved with the Egg Storage, I can't get behind a completely hidden box for pokemon.

---

The idea of Egg Storage boxes came from the fact that eggs hatch immediately and breaking a chain is a lot easier here than somewhere else; it's a luxury item, which is also where the price comes from.

What advantage would this "hidden box" get you?
Would these pokémon still show up in the pokédex or in the clicklist?
What if the "gift idea" is bought from another user and wouldn't be able to be hidden anyway?
What can it do better/more that you can't solve by simply putting the pokémon you want to hide in your DayCare? What would it cost, simply to expend your Daycare? [because that's what it sounds like ^^' ]

About the embarrassment:
1. Unless you tell everyone you like a specific pokémon, why would you hide it away? They don't know it's your favourite, and you need to have the pokémon for the Dex-entry, so nobody would assume you like it, just because you have it in your boxes.
2. If everyone knows, why would you be embarrassed that you have it? You're obviously not embarrassed telling others it's your favourite pokémon, so why hide it away?
