No, it is NOT the same donation...
Unless you are somehow able to transfer Pokédollars from PRO to a REAL bank account, it will NEVER be the same kind of donation.
If you want to talk about these kind of things, at least say something that is achieveable?
Actually it is the same thing: MSs don't pop up in nature, so if you buy it with pokedollars, there is someone who bought it with real money, just to sell it to you.
As for MS the only way to obtain it is from the coin shop, wheter if you buy it with pokedollars or not, every MS medallion has been bought from the coin shop, and this means money to the game.
So yes, it is the same thing.
QFT If MS weren't tradeable the donations would be significantly less. Buying them with pokedollars has the same effect because people are willing to buy them to sell.
