Hello everyone,
I’d like to suggest adding the option to set our online status from the main menu before logging into the server.
Currently, we can choose statuses like "Available" , "Away" and "Offline" while in-game, which is really useful. It would be amazing if we could set these statuses from the main menu as well. Perhaps a "Busy" status could also be introduced for added flexibility.
Here’s why I think this would be a great addition:
Sometimes, it’s easier and faster to increase Pokémon happiness or do EV training by relogging after using an attack move. However, frequent relogging causes our friends to get constant pop-ups saying, "User X is now online", which can be distracting for them. If we could set our status to "Offline" before relogging, this wouldn’t be an issue.
There are times when someone might want to log in without others knowing they’re online. Maybe they just want to quickly get something done or aren’t in the mood to chat. While it’s possible to change the status after logging in, the online pop-up still appears. Being able to set "Offline" from the main menu would solve this.
A "Busy" status could help by stopping pop-up messages or blinking friend notifications when someone comes online, allowing users to focus on what they’re doing without interruptions.
Thank you so much for taking the time to read my suggestion. I truly hope you’ll consider it!
Kind regards,
Lugario
