Why this idea?
Well, I came with this idea as some Retro(s) like Retro Charizard, Blastoise, Venusaur, Meganium, Typhlosion, Feraligatr, Moltres, Zapdos, Articuno, etc. which were available earlier in Retro Radar, are not available now and there is a serious need for them that you can see by their demands.What is this shop?
To avoid and to give relief to all the users who need those unavailable & unobtainable Retro(s), I came with this suggestion as the title says, the Retro Shop, here is the idea of how it will look like.A shop where all the current unavailable & unobtainable Retro(s) will be present for the exchange.
They can be exchanged with the Retro Tokens.
The Retro tokens can be obtained through finding them in Mystery Boxes, by Golden Slot, maybe finding them in Rumbles or maybe by various other means.
Or by exchanging them with Nuggets. According to me the rate of exchange with nuggets for Retro Tokens should be 1 Nugget is to 10 Tokens. The price can be different.
-BENEFITS-
• This shop will help to make users to get those Retro(s) which they need seriously.
• This Shop will avoid the crazy price rise of them. And also it will help to keep the Price Value of these Retro(s).
• The idea of collecting tokens maybe fun and challenging while doing tasks... :D
Retro Pokemons Token Exchange Prices: (just an example)
The Token exchange rates for Retro Mons are listed below: (RT = Retro Tokens)(They may not be correct or actual, as this is just an idea, i.e., example for the rates.)• Retro Charizard = 3000 RT
• Retro Blastoise = 3000 RT
• Retro Meganium = 3000 RT
• Retro Feraligatr = 3000 RT
• Retro Typhlosion = 3000 RT
• Retro Moltres = 8000 RT
• Retro Articuno = 8000 RT
• Retro Zapdos = 8000 RT
[Some Retro(s) here, maybe missing which are unobtainable. They would be added.]
As Retro(s) have so much chances of being shiny, so while buying these Retro(s) there maybe some chances that they will be shiny.
Kitties! Riako has no idea what he unleashed with that update🙀

Looking for Ice Gems and Flying Gems here! Help me hunt a Shiny Articuno!
(You can win your own non-shiny Articuno in return)
Breeding events for the cause here!
Problem is that it would be weird if you get the retro Starters when their fully evolved, and it would make retro vouchers useless, maybe, instead of buying the Pokémon, you get it as a voucher to redeem at the Game Center, and that could be a possible task at the dream shop-buy a Retro voucher from the Retro shop | REWARD : (at 0 stars)6
Edit: Okay, I thought that they can evolve(eg. Retro Charmander ———> Retro Charizard)
Ahh, and also, they dont evolve. :P
You can read more about them from here.
Tbh, I never thought there was a 'serious need' for the retro starters. Retros as a whole kinda always just struck me a cool collectable thing. Also, this process seems incredibly tedious, and giving me event shop/SCS vibes, which seem to be money/time drainers from my experience. I can see why people would want this, but I personally don't see all the hype for the retro starters. This isn't something I would use. Like, I get they are rare or whatever, but a dated looking charizard isn't really worth the effort imo
It is an amazing idea actually, but i wish this gets implemented soon so that we can shiny hunt the retros *a new suggestion shall be added for this if this suggestion gets impkemented*
There really is no use for retros, other than collecting
Having a shop for them would decrease their value
Also, this would lead to easily obtainable shiny mega ables
[Which can't mega evolve, because of its retro, but still
Sure, I understand that newer members can't obtain them except by trading
But there isn't really a use for them

And this shop will be for all the incoming future retro(s) too, so this might be helpful. 🙂
id prefer if the retros and shiny retros were made available more on luck basis then on grind.
I was thinking how about a kind of rumble mission where we can recruit retros by a small chance, with a very small chance of them being shiny.
the gasty line can stay a Halloween thing. the johto starters can be from burned tower. While kanto birds and kanto starters can be from a new rumble mission.
