"[Discussion] Would You Like To Have More Buildings in Pokémon Go? (Ex: Poké Centers and Poké Marts)"

#PokemonGO: Hi All, I wanted to mention the idea of bringing other buildings to Pokémon Go. As of right now, the only physical location aspect to the game that we have are Gyms and Stops (and walking to hatch eggs/buddy candy). I think that (and I know many people have said this wayyyy before me), we need other places to visit like Pokémon Centers and Poké Marts. I say this because not only will it add another dimension to the game but it will make it feel a lot more like the original games as well as adding things for us to do with potentially new features. For example, Poké Mart: These can be placed in different locations, perhaps a bit more scarce and can be some sort of barter post. They can offer rare candies by trading specific candies from other Pokémon like 5 Dratini Candy for 4 Rare Candies (or something like that). They can even offer TMs here by trading 2 Fast TMs for 1 Charge TM. Some other possibilities are trading evolution stones for a different ones, maybe re-rolling an egg or even switching Poké Balls (10 regular Balls for 1 Great Ball). This is just another way to acquire difficult items not available in the store and to give us something more to think about. I would love to be on my way home from work and think that I need to pass by the Poké Mart to see what deals are available today. Pokémon Centers: I’m sure we all know what this is and what they offered us in the original games. It would be cool if we could place a Pokémon to get healed over time (maybe every 12 Hours) and this could also serve as a trading post between players. If I wanted to trade a Pokémon with my friend, we’d both have to go to the same stop, setup a private group (just like Raids) and maybe we could do 1 trade every 24 hours or something (with potentially other restrictions like the same team, similar levels, cost coins to setup the room etc.). NOTE: This is just an idea and I wanted to see what my fellow players think. Please give your opinions and even any suggestions of features these buildings can potentially bring to the game. Again, I’m sure a lot of us have thought of these things and even discussed it with friends before, I did not COME UP with these ideas. Cheers :) via /r/pokemongo http://ift.tt/2hdezyW
