Top 10 features that might save Pokemon Go

With Pokemon Go losing millions of active users in a short period of time, is there still a way to keep some solid number of players in the game and perhaps save its popularity? We don’t know how Niantic will get some players back on the augmented reality game, but what we listed below might save Pokemon Go from just a craze status to solid platform.

Top 10 features we wish will come in next Pokemon Go big updates

1. Trading System – This is perhaps one of the most exciting features we would like to see in the game where you can trade your Pokemon with your friends and other Trainers. This will also improve the diversity of every Trainer’s Pokedex. What we just don’t want to see is players trading their rare Pokemon for money, but I guess no one can’t stop that if the Trading system happens.
2. Player to player battle – What about an augmented-reality battle in everywhere at any time? This is will surely encourage players to train their Pokemon and learn the strengths and weaknesses of each type.
3. Interact with your Pokemon collection – You have your Pokedex, but you can’t even interact with them such as on AR camera effect where you can layer them to your pictures. We wish Niantic will also make your Pokedex and Pokemon useful and fun.
4. Rewards system and more PokeCoins – Owning a PokeGym is currently the only way to get some Pokecoins aside from purchasing it thru the shop. It would be great for Niantic to add other options or ways to earn coins and credits like thru stardust exchange or alike.
5. Players can suggest PokeStops and PokeGyms – Niantic relies on Google’s points of interest and mapping system. And we admit that they have really bad setup in rural areas where Pokestops and gyms are rarely seen. It will be better if players can suggest points or locations too.
6. Built-in stats or CP (combat points) calculator – At least a calculated CP will appear before evolving a Pokemon.
7. Increase combat points range for starter Pokemon – What we don’t like in the game is that there’s no connection on your starter Pokemon. Above all, your starter Pokemon remains pretty useless once you start capturing higher CP Pokemon which is unlike on the original Pokemon anime where Pikachu gets stronger over time.
8. Improve battle systems (new skills to use) – Battling on the gym is very repetitive and boring, you’re stuck with just two basic moves  and a special one. It would really improve the game a lot if they will introduce a flexible and more entertaining battle systems utilizing all specials and skills.
9. Secure gyms before battling – One of the most annoying parts of the game is when you’re about to claim a gym and leave a Pokemon there after winning. But you can’t because some players are already cutting on the line and taking advantage. Actually, this will be easily solved by incorporating a system on which players with the most prestige damage will get the highest floor.
10. Rare Pokemon event – Until this point, there’s still no a big Pokemon event that even depicts on the one we saw on their trailer on which players unite to beat Mewtwo. With more people forgetting the game, I just hope that it won’t be too late for Niantic when they will hold one in the future.

We just hope Niantic will really hear the players’ requests and start implementing the core features we were expecting since in the beginning.

Let’s know what features you want to see soon on the Pokemon Go thru their next big updates and features promised earlier.
