denied HP-Reroll Ticket

[Rogue005]

Hello , I recently used the HP-Reroll Ticket and found out that it rerolls all the ivs on the pokemon entirely when attempting to give you the desired hidden power and I felt absolutely robbed. I personally felt this ticket completely loses its purpose since people would rather prefer getting the hidden power manually using IV-Reducing ticket since it does not disturb the other ivs and also cost *300 tokens* less which is an extreme difference.

My point is , usually there is a need to change only 2-3 ivs to get the desired hidden power on a lengendary. So why would someone spend 600 tokens which guarantees nothing but only the hidden power over 2 qty of IV-Reducing tickets that guarantee the hidden power while also retaining the other ivs which are already good. The HP-Reroll Ticket just feels extremely overpriced for what it is offering.

Suggestion

I think that the HP-Reroll Ticket would suffice its purpose if it just randomly increased or decreased the ivs (by 1) that are needed to be altered to get the desired hidden power while retaining all the other ivs. I feel this would justify its cost of 600 tokens and right now its just not worth so many tokens

This makes it very reasonable for a person to buy it who needs a change on 3-4 ivs instead of 2, because for 2 ivs , 2 qty of IV-reducing ticket can itself do the job and if its only 1 iv , IV-Reducing ticket comes out to be the obvious choice having half the price of the HP-reroll ticket.

Even though I love the concept of the hp reroll, right now I feel it is way too obscenely expensive. If it was 200 to 300 tokens it'd be fair to use it onto a legendary mon that requires a specific hidden power. Right now, if you have a legendary mon with really good ivs but you need a specific hidden power,  you'd rather just use iv reducing rerolls until you get what you need. It is sadly really overshadowed and only sees usage when your legendary is just starting on a really weak iv baseline.

that could be another way to alter it. Either to change its function or its cost

Hello, your suggestion does make sense if you only use it on Pokémon that already have good stats, but as you correctly pointed out, IV-Reduce Tickets often make more sense in that case. In the scenario you described, HP-Reroll Tickets make less sense, and they weren’t designed for that. But HP-Reroll Tickets are more useful for Legendaries with poor stats. We don’t plan to change the HP-Reroll Ticket or make it cheaper.

I understand, but please take this into consideration

I highly doubt a pvp player would prefer a specific hidden power ticket over 3 normal tickets that give him so many more chances to get a viable legendary pokemon. Also hardly any beginner player would have the resources to afford such an exorbitant ticket , and similarly i doubt many experienced pvpers would have a legendary with extremely poor stats. I really like the concept but right now its just not providing any value imo

+1, I don't see much value in spending three times the cost of a regular reroll just to obtain a specific Hidden Power type. Most legendaries that rely on certain Hidden Power combinations are already constrained by minimum Speed IV requirements. In such cases, I prefer using standard rerolls to reach an acceptable IV baseline first, and then utilizing an IV reduction ticket to achieve the desired Hidden Power, rather than relying on costly premium rerolls.
