There is no such equivalent of gem dust in games, but well, I think it could be put into some use, so let me explain:
you would be able to trade (with Gem collector, I assume) Gem dust for gems, but also it would have to be balanced.
Let's say that for every 1 normal gem you would get 200 gem dust (current value of normal gem is 2000pokedollar according to stonks), and you could then trade it for 2 flying gems (current value of flying gem is around 1000pd)

Pros':
- Being able to get rarer gems without losing/gaining "market" value
- Not having to deal/wait for user trades in gem trading
- would normalise the price for a given gem, since the conversion would apply
Cons':
- Technically this removes the need for gem trading
- People would "grind" only one field within rumble areas (see [1] for a possible way to fix it)

I would also consider if this material would not be tradeable and be a key item instead.

If it were to be implemented, it would be interesting for it to have the bright power sprite or something:

[1] To maybe balance it more: some kind of PD "fee" for trading gems in? (Eg. 10pd for every gem, something negligible on a smaller scale, etc.)

Thread has received Mod approval and is now open for discussion.

Full support! By the way, where would you get it? Rumbles?

Technically, why not - in my original thought I was only considering it being a craftable item (meaning - cannot be bought or found - not exactly obtainable by normal means) but I don't think it would be able to break the game in any way
