Hi i wanna suggest a Gts personal trade (GPT) system where if u write a name of a person in comment or a special tab for writing name then the pokemon should be able to see by him or only offered by him

For eg.
I keep a ralts and write For Raiko then only Raiko will be able to see it and offer on it and no one else

No support, if you only want Raiko to offer on your Pokemon you should write "for Raiko" and that usually discourages people to offer on your Pokemon.

And let's say someone does offer on it, since you don't have to accept their offers you can just ignore them and wait for Raiko to offer and accept that one.

agreed but sometimes i put shinies or retro or maps in gts and there are tons of people offering them and if there is a GPT only 1 person will offer whom i want to give it

But again, you don't have to accept the offers given. I could understand if you were told you have to accept the first offer on your Pokemon in GTS but you don't, just accept the offer given by the right person.

I think Luna has a point. Why would this be needed anyway? You can just ignore all those offers till the user himself offers on your trade! That's it, ignoring something isn't that difficult.

And i think this would be useful and if you think you don't need it then just don't use it. What useful i can see besides that random people won't offer? Well there is one major thing. If someone offered something only for me and i wasn't online for some time then i don't have to scroll all gts pages I'd just go to My Trades and tada there are only trades for me :) well this is how i imagine it implemented so the idea from the first post might be a little different from what i said but still even if we can ignore some things why not to make life a bit better and don't have to ignore things?

As for locating trades meant for you, there are a couple of possibilities already:
- have the other person link you directly to the trade; Liirah already successfully does so for her evolution help thread
- have the other person put your exact username in the comment field and use your browser's search function (usually CRTL+F) to find it
- search for the specific pokémon from the main trade page if you know what is being given to you

As for the original suggestion, no support. I think there's no need for more trade pages to keep track of. If a change is to be made, a "Decline Offer" link/button (suggested here) seems far easier to implement and - possibly in combination with the tips above - has similar enough results.
