Points to be noted -

 

1. It should be turned off at first as default. User have to turn it on.
2. Let's keep it to uncommon and rare only for all types i.e., event,pink and shiny.

 

Exactly, should be turned off as default to avoid sharks abusing new players imo

+1 awesome idea for player that know the game well.

but for new player who get rare shiny poke and dont know price, would be easier to get scammed. as 1m in game can look so much for new player.

[Ladydragona]

+1 I think it sounds like a great idea, especially since you can turn it off or on and choose to be anonymous or not

I mean, the idea sounds great, knowing what is going on around and seeing how lucky the rest are.
 

The thing is, imagine being a new player, with less than 30h playtime and you don't know about prices/pvp/ivs-evs etc, but you find a shiny Charmander on your way to the Elite 4, the fact that your name appears on a list saying that you got that Charmander, will make a lot of people try to scam or offer low prices for that shiny, which would only lead to veteran players scamming lucky new players.

The best way to solve this would probably be the option of hiding your name, but I'd suggest that it is hidden by default, and if you want to flex or show what you get, you have to go to options and enable it.

I mean again, players can disable the feature and even hide their names from being shown, so I don't see that being a problem anymore.

Yes, they have to go out of their way into the options to do that. New players probably aren't going to go out of their way to turn it off in the settings. I just think this could lead to predatory behavior from scammers if it's implemented/left on by default.

Maybe hiding half the names from players is good when they get encounters with events/shiny

Example:

[14:26:12] System: Waka****ii encountered a Shiny Skorupi

 

Dk if this would be better than hiding player names completely or it just

sounds like weirder

Maybe implement it indeed, but with a extra chat option "Catching" Chat for example

Anyone looking in this chat will actually look at it to motivate them self, but when people find an Extreme Rare Tier Event/Shiny it globally appears in all chats
