hi i see many ppl care if pokemon is OT or not and its fair thing to care for, what i dont understand tho is why OT isnt shown in linked pokes in chat , i mean half of the times i see ppl asking if its OT or not on the links, i think it will be good if its added?

for me personally its robbing ppl of ability to flex OT which is not fair.

the only reason i can think of that not being implemented is enabling the pay2win players to "hide" in a way , since nobody will know if u caught it or bought it when u link . while its good to keep the donators happy its also good to care abt the majority of players who are also paying for MS, BC and other small stuff, not robbing everyone of the ability to flex when they caught something for the 15% who dont ever hunt and buy all their pokemon and want nobody to know abt it

cuz rn why should i invest 5-10k hrs hunting rare shiny and play the game 1 month when i can work 1 day and buy it , and not play at all, makes no sense, only if we had OTs :)

I understand the need to want to know something like that, but we should also respect the privacy of the owner.

They may have bought it, or maybe it is from an alt account they don't want to share, or for whatever reason, and we should respect that.

Both valid points. The same way PRO give us the chance to stay private on encounters. Wouldn't then be just as fair to give players a chance to show off their OT, with just a "simple" tick in the options menu?

If we have the option to choose if the information is shared or not, and be able to change it at anytime, then I'm okay with that.
