Ever since the very begining, people that joined ASB would start with the following items:

2 Oran Berries
2 Leppa Berries
2 Cheri Berries
2 Chesto Berries
2 Pecha Berries
2 Rawst Berries
2 Aspear Berries

It was pointed out that those items are pretty much useless and several people that are around for a awhile still have most of those berries (haven't used them).

Do you agree? Should we change the starter items? To what?

Discuss etc.
 
1x EXP Share, 1x Lucky Egg, 1x Amulet Coin seems far more appropriate. The Starter Status Berries are rarely used (Outside of Leppa Berries, and we can thank Raids for that...).
 
How about giving them a choice?
You can Choose any three Items between Amulet Coin, Exp Share and Lucky Egg; when you start.
So those who want 3 Lucky Eggs can choose them, Those who want 3 Exp Shares can choose them too.
 
May as well also give training items out to those that don't have them (eg if someone has only an Exp. Share, they can claim a free Amulet Coin and Lucky Egg) so that relatively new people can also benefit from this, similar to what we did when we changed 3 starting eggs/tms to 5.
 
Yeah, we should do that!
*goes and sells its Lucky Egg and Amulet Coin*
(I like the idea, just make sure no one does the above).
 
Agreeing as well. Not only would this get rid of clutter that rarely gets used (the basic berries) but it also helps with one of the new player problems discussed in the other thread (that it's hard to fix mistakes you make when you're new).
 
Yeah, I don't see a problem with this at all. I've been playing this for three years and I have never used a single one of those berries outside Raids (which a doesn't consume them and b new players shouldn't exactly be jumping to go for)
 
One more thing that I would like to put out here is, the existing players should be able to swap the 7 Berry types for the three items.

No reason why existing players would need these berries, and we might as well keep these consistent?
 
On Starter Items
As is (berries)
Replace Starter Items with 1x Lucky Egg, 1x Amulet Coin, 1x Exp. Share
Give, in addiction to berries, 1x Lucky Egg, 1x Amulet Coin, 1x Exp. Share

IF second option wins:

On Retroactivity
New rules valid only for new players
Old Players get a set of Starter Items
Old Player can exchange their set of Berries for a set of Starter Items
Upgrade all users until they each have a minimum of 1 Lucky Egg, 1 Amulet Coin, and 1 EXP Share

IF third option wins:

On Retroactivity
New rules valid only for new players
Old Players get a set of Starter Items
Upgrade all users until they each have a minimum of 1 Lucky Egg, 1 Amulet Coin, and 1 EXP Share

Can we get an "Upgrade all users until they each have a minimum of 1 Lucky Egg, 1 Amulet Coin, and 1 EXP Share" added as a voting slate, to match how 5 TMs/Eggs were retroactively applied?

FROSTYEDIT: Done.
