denied Membership suggestions - MS NONSPAWNS

[Caprifame]

Hello PRO,

 

I think we have all noticed that recently the Membership has been pushed to be more necessary for hunts, while also increasing its price.

 

While I understand that the game depends on donations to survive, I think that locking Pokemon out of reach for free to play and new players by making them MS only, when they were accessable the year before (I am looking at you Larvesta) is a bad idea. 

 

Instead I have some Suggestions and I hope to stop this trend of MS exclusive spawns, especially those which were non MS exclusive before.

 

I was a huge Fan of the different Eevee spawns during XMas 2022 where Eevee had a non MS spawn following the 3 common, 3 uncommon, 3 rare baseline of spawns, and a MS spawn of 3 common 2 uncommon 2 rares in Whoville.

 

I think this is a direction MS can move, being a sleight shortcut towards your desired rare form, instead of a key you need to find your rare form at all.

 

The idea would be to make Spawns for high demand rare forms without MS, following the base spawn rates, and a spawn for the same Pokemon following a better spawn rate (cutting an uncommon from the spawn for example) giving those willing to pay an advantage but still including free players to hunt the Pokemon they desire.

 

This concept can be taken a whole step further by adding MS NONSPAWNS. 

 

Just like some Pokemon can only spawn with an active Membership, these Pokemon will NOT spawn if you have an active Membership, therefore boosting the odds of finding the other Pokemon in that area more and giving an advantage towards your rare form.

 

For example in Breezy Town, Miltank is a Pokemon that feels very random in there, making it a MS NONSPAWN gives hunters the option to look for their targets and not find it anymore.

 

 

Another example can be Suzuka Cave 1F, where cutting Octillery with an active Membership improves the spawn.

 

 

Creating such spawns would inspire a lot of players to use MS for their hunts, removing annoying spawns from their pools while still keeping these spawns alive for free to play or new players who cant or dont want to afford a Membership.

 

EDIT: Some have given me Feedback that they might wanna hunt that Pokemon MS would exclude, however, you could simply pause your MS using the NPCs in front of the department stores and hunt the full spawn!

 

I would much rather use MS this way than forcing exclusive spawns on the community locking their favorite or most desired forms behind it. After all I love PRO a lot for it being free to play without the need to buy a MS to get what you want, and I wish for it to stay that way.

 

I hope the suggestion will be discussed and evaluated.

 

Cheers 

Capri

I like the idea of spawns where having an ms could actually make the spawn better by removing x amount of pokemon from the spawn table.

+1, I agree about donation but since Halloween it is a mess.

[Picnic]

+1, I think it's fair to give a option for free to play players and make MS spawn a little better for those who want to pay.
