Interactions on the side have been slow recently and were mostly only done during events Most people seem to only see them as worth it, when they can gain something from it. This is especially frustrating for those people on hunts or on Rowan's Quests, as regardless of how much they interact it doesn't mean they get the same amount in return (e.g. I had days where I managed to make 3-4k interactions & was lucky when I got 1k back).

So what if there was a regular incentive to do interactions?

When you do a lot of interactions you get the little note that congratulates you on making 1k, 5k, 10k,... interactions that day, what if that note was combined with a small reward like the DP for the 500 clicks per hour?

The DP themselves are only a minor incentive to interact at least this minimum, as they are mostly only used up during Plushie Events or small exchanges.
But if you had something like, say Event Points, that would be given out as daily reward for a certain amount of interactions, I think this might be different.
I'm not talking about huge amounts and more like:
1k interactions = 1 Event Point
5k interactions = 2 Event Points
and so on.

So, what do you think?
Would it be possible to increase the interactions through something like this?

I know interacting is one of the main points of the site, but honestly, the only time I've ever hardcore interacted was during the recent SCE; other times, I just can't bring myself to do it unless its on the main page. So if there was an incentive involved, I'd probably be much more involved with interacting regularly. Combine that with most users who want their own past event mons have to turn to the event shop, and that event points are pretty darn hard to come by, and I definitely think that this would get many people interacting way more. The only thing is maybe reduce the event point thing a little more, since to just get a common event egg by this system only and assuming you get 1 event point per 1k interactions, you'd have to make over 1 million interactions! That's way too high for almost anyone, in my opinion, so maybe something like 1 event point per 200 or 300 clicks would be better.

Although I like the idea I would have to disagree with Finchwidget - 200-300 Is far too low I thin for every pop up like you said should be 1 then 2 then 3 ECT. Then it's not that easy to get the events but one could save up for the event passes and such. As the only way to get then is via boxes and event that's super low even with the purchase of nuggets which not everyone can do.

tbh i love the idea of event points being more readily available bc im a completionist but with the shiny event legend passes costing 16,000/20,000 nuggets worth of Event points i feel as if i'd never even get them unless there was some other method of actually acquiring them? like, $200 is way too much money to spend on a single piece of data imho

I support this idea, but I think 5k for 2 event points isn't much. Especially when not many people can reach the maximum of interaction every day. Maybe like this?
1k = 1 Event Point
2k = 2 Event Points
.
.
5k = 5 Event Points
.
.
10k = 100 Event Points
11k = 11 Event Points

Like giving every reached 10,000*X = 100*X more event points

This suggestion rocks! Like how you need an event pass to hunt an event Pokemon and you need like 30k event points, which is 3k nuggets is soo much expensive. So if there was a way to get event points without giving event points would always be supported by me :P
