Pokeballs

Since Pokemon Gold/Silver there have been an addition of a great number of different pokeballs to the games.

Apricorn

This is an Apricorn. Apricorns special fruits that are native to the Johto region. They appear to be related to Berries, and are encountered only in Pokémon Gold, Silver, Crystal, HeartGold, and SoulSilver.

Apricorn Collection

In the games/anime you would collect apricorns and bring them to to a man named Kurt, who was basically a pokeball blacksmith to craft pokeballs.

Apricorn Colors

These Apricorns came in 7 different colors each one creating a different type of pokeballs, which were more proficient at capturing different types of Pokemon.

Fastballs

For example during the anime Kurt gives Ash, Misty, and Brock each one fastball. Fast balls are made from red Apricorns which are used to catch Pokémon which run away quickly and easily. Given how quickly Pokemon seem to flee these days, these could come in useful in Pokemon Go.

Apricorns in Game

Adding Apricorn trees to the game would add an extra feature. Something to grab anywhere you would find trees.

Apricorn Minigame

The game is about encouraging you to get outdoors. But it would be nice if you had something to do in idle time. Crafting your own pokeballs from collected Apricorns with a small minigame would give Trainers something fun to do when you can't be out catching them all.

I don't play Pokemon GO, but from what I hear there are a number of features and bug fixes that should probably take priority over this.

You want something from the game in Pogo? you would have to add substance instead of screen mashing to it to get that kind of thing.

lol, OP talking about adding new features when all Niantic has done so far was to remove features. (And make minor text fixes)

I like it, send it to niantic! Spam them! Did you create a reddit post for this already! What are you still reading for! Go go go!

I was recently watching Johto Champions and I am pretty sure the fast ball was made from the white apricorn.

No one knows what Master Balls are made from, fyi. Kurt only makes specialty balls.

I never got into the acron business. Seemed like too much work for little reward

They need to remake crystal!

That's actually a really awesome idea and an interesting element they could add to the game. With the issues they've had with even base 1/2

features, though, I'm not that hopeful that something like this would come to fruitation.

You don't understand. Pokemon GO isn't about the consumer having fun. It's about them getting tired of pokestops and spending money.

This is a very good idea. Gen 3 is coming so I hope Niantic sees this post.

For all we know this is in the game, but the "johto" region is Japan only

9 years ago | Likes 6 Dislikes 6

What do you mean by this? I've played through crystal which takes place in Johto. Definitely not Japan only

9 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

Johto is literally inside Japan. The 4th Gym's city is based on Kyoto. Ingame region maps overlap with various real world places.

9 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

I mean we are in countries other than Japan right now, for all we know there are region specific nuances

People don't seem to realize that now that the hooks are buried now starts the freemium blood milking. God help their poor mobile souls.

There's so much data to analyze there they can just sell that right now and live like kings.

They don't need freemium when they have your daily shopping, eating, and movement habits recorded with video of your area/home/work.

9 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

You think they are gonna say no to milking it harder?

If that creeps you out ignore the CEOs connections with In-Q-Tel, The CIAs venture capital firm on geospatial Intel.

I think @OP will be disappointed, they're struggling to maintain basic operations, let alone add to it.

The new encryptions were cracked today. Some scanners will likely be up by tomorrow morning.

if anything they might either add the apricorns to the pokestops or the additional balls there. I know theyre adding metal coat to the stops

9 years ago | Likes 10 Dislikes 0

For what? Evolving pokemon?

9 years ago | Likes 7 Dislikes 0

metal coat is to evolve certain pokemon like onix or scythe into steelix and scizor

9 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

Well yeah I know in the main series, but how would they do that in GO, through trading still?

9 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

it's a required item when evolving. it'll show the number of candies plus item needed.like onix needs 100 candies and metal coat for steelix
