I have how many of this pet?

[Reggie]

Okay, I first have to start off by saying that I LOVE the archives, and the implementation of the wishlist currently, it's been a major help in filling out my collection.

*NOTE* If you vote in the poll, please post a comment stating what you voted or why you voted that way or something.***

Now that I've said that, I would like to suggest we take it one step further. Perhaps two steps even.

See, I know that each month, we often end up with duplicates, and sometimes you accidentally trade away all the duplicates, or for some reason you trade away a pet you wanted to keep one of because.. I dunno, muffins. Anyway. My suggestion is that on the archives, along with there being told you have this pet and being given the option to add or remove from wishlist, I think we should also be told you have "x-amount of this pet" and also be told what groups that pet is in and how many are in that group.

So.. for example.. it would say:

You have X# of this pet!
Locate?
Add to wishlist

Then, if you clicked locate, it would open a sort of.. drop down or something, so you could stay on the same page, it would look like this:

You have x# of this pet!
Locate?
--- Group 1 (2)
--- Trade group (3)
--- (Pets without a group (4)
Add to wishlist

Why is this useful? Well. I don't know about you, but I have a lot of pets, and sometimes I have multiples of them in a non-trade group, when I wanted to only keep one, and trade off the rest for what I don't have.
This would also make it easier to pick out what you have duplicates of and where they are. Also, if you have a pet in a wrong group, but hey, you have no idea where it is in the mass of groups you have, you could look through this and BAM easy finding.

If this is not explained well enough, please, by all means ask questions, I'll try to explain my thought process better, I know sometimes it gets a bit muddled.

I like this idea and it would be helpful for me but I think it has been asked befor, I am not sure tho C;

I didn't look to see if it was. I should have, but alas, hindsight is 20/20.

I really do hope more people get behind this. ^^

I love this idea 'cause I often trade away all my duplicates!

@Like a bird: You're right, however, I'm not suggesting a link, I'm suggesting it be added to the archive coding, which would make it easier for everyone than some random link because the archive is so well organized.

Yeah, fair point.

^^; Your point of course, is valid as well.

I'm glad to see this getting some votes, though I'd like t actually have people say what they think of this. I think it would be highly useful, but alas, no one seems to want to participate in the discussion side of it.

totally agree... I just traded for a pet that I already had... I wasn't sure if I had it or not and it would have taken me forever to look through all my pets to try to find it..I could have tried to look it up by dates..but it was a december 18th re release so I didn't know it's original date..still couldn't find it in my pets...ended up trading for it ..and ...I already had it It would be nice to know if I have multiple numbers of the same pet.
