    The more recent games have been pushing more online play with new additions such as the GTS, Global Link, and PSS. What would you like to see from online play with Sun & Moon? Are there any new features you'd like to see bought in?
     
    I would love the ability to watch friend's online battles as they happen, if they allow spectators. So many times my friends would be having wifi battles over skype and you could hear them raging but you would have no idea what was going on, so it would be super neat to watch your friends battle.
     
    I think probably the easiest yet possibly most beneficial feature would be to allow some form of chatting. It is such a pain to try to ask someone for a specific Pokemon or tell them you're not interested in what they offer by having to nickname your own Pokemon with phrases. I've had many possible trades break down because there wasn't a good form of communication.

    Item trading would be good. I know you can sort of do this by attaching items to Pokemon, but being able to request specific items in the same format that you do with Pokemon would be awesome.

    This is what I really hope for too! I think it'd be pretty neat to allow the trading of just items without the need to have to trade a Pokémon holding that item as well. Maybe even a GTS feature?
     
    Chatting would be a great feature, it would allow us to ask our friends to trade a specific Pokemon or arrange a battle when you're not actually with them. Item trading would be pretty cool too or maybe some sort of mail system where you could just send people an item with a message.
     
    I know a lot of people want this to happen, and that's more filters on the GTS since I feel at the moment there isn't enough to filter down requests to certain categories of Pokemon. Like say, have filters for legendaries, nicknames, shinies, hidden abilities etc.
     
    ^ idk I personally never really enjoyed the Entralink. Like it seemed cool in concept but I didn't like it that much in practice. But then again I didn't use it a whole heap so eh idk.

    I would really like something similar to the Underground feature in DPPt though. I found that a lot of fun - it was a cool way to play with your friends in a different space, and there were some cool mini-games that were pretty cool. I'm sure they could do something cool like that in an Alolan context, and maybe find a way to incorporate Secret Bases there as well :D
     
    I'm new to this online concept, so ive never gt the chance to explore entralink, dreamworld or underground before, but i gotta say i also like a place where all players could gather and make lots of things happen. It may bit too much to ask for, but in this place we we should be able to trade or challenge or chat for whatever we want.

    Also the place should introduce an online PWT building of sorts where everyday at different time there'll be competitive tournament hosting where online players gather and battle. There'll be ranks involved (starting from lowest rank 1 for example). Only the winner will receive a wonderful prize (for the sake of fairness maybe some cash for prizes is okay :) ). This place can also be used to held many online official tournament, of course. The entries will be on "first come, first served" basis.

    Basically, a place where it'll have all our online needs!
