Christmas wish game changes?
I was daydreaming a few things I'd wish for Niantic to change, any other thoughts?
1) of course the obvious, Gen2, trading, PvP
2) more candy for evolved mons: 3/6/9 when caught in wild, 1/2/3 from Professor
3) How about stats for Great / Excellent throws? I know I'm getting better, but would be cool to know for sure (at the very least have a "Sharpshooter" medal - although I'd prefer a ratio, ideally with date filter)
4) the Nearby vs Sightings issue is better, I think it would be perfect if once opened, player could swipe and toggle between the 2 views. Could even be a setting to default open to Nearby vs Sightings...
5) would be cool if Pokestops at certain locations were tweaked in terms of items provided, I'm thinking something like:
- Graveyards: more revives
- Churches/Hospitals: more potions
- Schools: better pokeballs
- Museums: better eggs
What do you guys think?

Yeah, I'm not sure how it work in practice, but would be similar to the official recommendation from Niantic to "find more water type Pokemon by water". A few items would naturally seem to associate with Pokestops in certain locations, like revives in graveyards, and potions from churches...
For re-rolling, wouldn't that just mean everyone would eventually end up with their best mons with ideal movesets? I agree it sucks to bring a dratini or magikarp to its end stage only to end up with a crappy moveset, but I don't see how that could be fairly changed. How would you see that working?
I'm sure they can find ways to stop that, and don't think anyone can catch the same mon 100 times, even if we supose someone has 100 accounts the timer of the mon staying (15-30 mins) won't let you catch it that many times for sure.
Also they put the Lapras event in Japan and people got hundreds of candies and the game did not break.
Maybe they could put a cooldown for the trading feature, like you are only able to trade 3 mons per day, or trading only comes available when a player has reached level 20/25, of course don't let people who has changed locations in a suspicious way or has been banned to trade.
