as someone who does actually use the fishing hut, i feel like they should be rarer than starters, or there should be some kind of limit? they are breedable, but you're limited to 6 daycare eggs per day without spending any kind of currency (and you can only increase it with GP or ZC), and i've easily pulled in 20-30 starters in a short time fishing. this would literally mean unlimited exclusives for the (negligible) price of bait and pokéballs--it'd add incentive to go fishing for sure, but it'd also probably break the market for these specific exclusives. i think the rarity is part of the reason exclusives are so beloved--they're a prize, something you have to earn. throwing them in with the likes of magikarp and goldeen would be doing them a disservice. i think this could be done, but it would have to be done carefully or it'd be incredibly unbalanced. my ideas are:

• add a super rod and/or exclusive poké balls (costing GP, possibly?) that are required to catch exclusives; this would help retain some of their value and limit the amount you could get
• make them much rarer than starters. it's easy to find yourself drowning in squirtles or mudkips when fishing. exclusives at that rarity would be far too comon.
• restrict them to the last two fishing areas. this and the super rod/exclusive pokéballs together would limit new players from stumbling on exclusives their first day playing.

TLDR: i think it's a good concept but has the potential to make these exclusives worth far less than they are now. since other methods of obtaining exclusives are limited or require GP/ZC, i feel this should be too, to maintain balance.

support, but would variants like bm slugma get added? i think it should be ones from season 1-6 and a very slim chance to hook a season 7-8 one, as it would maybe help people that are selling season 7-8 ones?(i suck at explaining stuff XC)

I agree with Cyndalavosion on this. Fakemon aren't able to be found in the many site tools/locations. They are such a big part of the work put into Pokéfarm, but you can't find them anywhere. They should be rare in these places, but not non-existent. They are hunted just like any other species, yet we cant have them as PoTD or in the fishing areas? Doesn't seem all that logical.

Support, to an extent? I think maybe a few variants and one fakemon should be included, but not every water exclusive. Having a variant that can only be found via fishing would be a really cool idea, though--and finally give us a new variant after the about 1.25 year hiatus of them (last one was Vampire Gligar)

Definite support from me :) I just feel like it makes sense, you know? And as you said, no current or recent fakemon but the ones that are older should definitely be added!

bump!

support^^ would make fishing more interesting when there are more poke to fish as right now^^ .

This is a no for the time being, when we have more seasons done and a bigger library of fakemon we can look at doing this again.
