Optional User Locked Tokens as Tournament Awards

Suggestion Summary: Adds the possibilty for user locked tokens or the traditional tradeable tokens to be collected after a tournament, so on the collection page at the end of the tournamnet, it'll give a user the option to collect either x1, x3, x5 Red Tokens OR x1, x3, x5 User Locked tokens. Modified prices for at least eggs with user locked tokens (to lesser amounts). Like 7 tokens per egg instead of 13. The user locked tokens can be exchanged for ones that aren't user locked Red or Blue but Red and Blue tokens cannot be uptraded to user-locked(similiar to the function of Red tokens now). Additional Points: Allows users to complete the PFQ eggdex without relying on trades/near perfect completition of tournaments (especially good for new users to don't have much/anything to offer for tokens and may have joined in the middle of a season). Allows users to keep trading Red and Blue tokens (and other seasons tokens, as they're released), if they so wish. Affects the market for tokens. Does not benefit those who regularly place in the top 50 for tournaments. Reason For Consideration: As it stands, the maximum number of tokens on can get per tournament is five. With 12 tournaments a season, that's a max of 60 tokens for one user to earn. Which sounds like a decent amount until one realizes it takes 52 tokens to get all the season's fakemon eggs. Missing two tournaments completely means one won't be able to get all the season's fakemon (unless they place in the top 50). Missing top tier in five tournaments means one won't be able to afford them all without the purchase of tokens from another user. Tournaments are supposed to be a grind, yes, but not a nearly impossible one. Even if someone managed to get to the top tier in all the tournaments, they'd only have an additional 8 tokens to spend. Which means they might be only willing to trade those 8 tokens, so the prices for tokens are steap/no one wants to trade their Red tokens for fear of not being able to purchase fakemon & other items. What about placing in the top 50? Taking the average number of participants from the last three tournaments (2,458) ones' chances of getting into the top 50, presuming no ties for 50th place, is a 2% chance. For the average user that means no fakemon eggs for 'free' as a tournament reward.

Price are cheaper when the Season ends, so catching up is much easier. Trading is a core aspect of any Pokémon game, so efforts have been made to ensure that everything can be traded.

No support. This is a community based game, you're supposed to work with each other. And as Niet said, once the season ends, the tokens are worth a lot less, and catching up won't be a huge problem.
