Single post in Caps & Mints

Please no. This would break already almost non existent IV market and ruin IV breeders. 1. Getting +180IV pokemon with right nature is extremely easy, and a lot of IV breeders give out 5IVs for free. So instead of buying a fairly expensive 6IV from a breeder (who spent a lot of time and effort trying to hatch it), you can just get 5IV for free and use items to max out it's IVs and/or change nature, making 6IV hunts pointless. 2. How can you tell mints or caps weren't used? Because if you couldn't tell from looking at it in someone's field, people would be able to sell 6IVs, I buy and try to breed them only to realise, hey, they have been IV boosted so I can't IV breed them properly. 3. During spars, pokemon are set to LV50 meaning that max IVs don't give that big of a boost. A lot of factors are at play when it comes to spars and max IV isn't making that big of a change, especially if you say want pokemon with low speed and nature that decreases speed. No need for 6IV in that case. (I can provide examples if needed?) Besides, leveling to 100 has nothing to do with spars or training. 4. Natures do give quite a nice boost but again it will devalue the actual work that goes into IV breeding, making it literally too easy to get what you want. And on top of that you are unable to breed it. Having a pokemon you only battle with without the ability to breed it, in my opinion, makes it less valuable. It's only good for one thing, while my 6IV with right nature I spent a lot of time in getting can both IV and nature breed. :D 5. Destiny Knot already has issues with sometimes not passing down 5IVs if taken out despite parents holding it as the egg was created and adopted, and on extremely rare occasions not passing down any at all. I feel like this would just cause more problems when it comes to IV breeding in terms of what can be correctly passed down. 6. It was already rejected. So please no. Just go find IV breeders or make a thread asking for high or 5IV bred pokemon with right nature. I know a lot of IV breeders, myself included, who have full fields of 5 and 6IV pokemon with great natures that can't be sold because there is a lack of interest.
