Hatching eggs
Forum-Index → Suggestions → Hatching eggsClicklists always have kind of been used to make profit and nothing else. We're all here interacting with Pokemon and warming eggs, but we're so disconnected of why we're even doing it, to help others hatch eggs!
So my suggestion is to have the Pokemon that came out of the eggs you hatched show up below.
I think this will make it more interesting and perhaps more rewarding. The Pokemon sprites would link to the user profile of that Pokemon (or to the Pokemon itself (debatable)). This would allow users to contact other users that just hatched a Pokemon they were looking for, or just congratulate other users for hatching a shiny.
Tracking who is hatching the eggs could allow to have the name of the "hatcher" (the user who hatched the egg) be shown in the pokemon overview. The hatcher is the one who gave the last bit of EHP to hatch the egg. If a guest hatches the egg, it would just say "guest".
Everything would look a bit like this.
Here are two more ideas that come to my head if this suggestion would be implemented
Please don't take this into account when casting your vote.
- It would also be nice to see all the eggs you've hatched during the day as a new section in the Union room.
- A new ranklist for the "Shiny hatchers", those who were lucky enough to hatch the egg of a shiny Pokemon (basically just luck, but HOL is also pure luck)
- A count of how many eggs you've hatched and a count of how many eggs you've adopted, possibly shown for everyone underneath the interaction stats.

I think there are at least 2 things this would add:
- A way for users (especially new users) to find Pokemon they want.
- A visual feedback, making interacting more interesting
And it could even add to the general experience psychologically:
- For some users this could make them feel like they're helping others, which usually make them feel happier too, instead of it being something you do for yourself.
For me personally and probably for most users who are already used to interacting, it wouldn't add much, but I'm sure other users would like it and maybe even find it useful, especially new users.
