This would I "THINK" would be a great idea to have a storage feature similar to Pokemon Home where if you own / play on a SMP that gets reset every so often to store you most prized Pokemon in a small system that allows you to keep them safe between resets. I see the feature being useful for certain servers that charge you for certain Pokemon, and if let's say a kid with limited funds from their parents don't want to keep shilling out the cash for the kid to have his favorite Pokemon on the server could get a bit costly a best to down right annoying at the server owners. I see this helping keep things running smoothly for certain players. I would like to know what are your thoughts on this idea.

I don't think many servers would be happy about players circumventing their intended progression and instantly importing battle perfect teams.

True, but I see that there should be that option for players. I could see this idea being offered up as another possible annual pay option, or be worked into a paid rank for many servers could utilize to keep players playing. The idea could be refined that certain boxes could be allowed for a select number of Pokemon. I know on the PokeClub Servers before they merged with PokeZone they reset the maps every so many months, just to keep resources fresh, but they were charging a fee for Legendary Pokemon. I know that there maybe a few server owners who would possibly not use the feature, but I feel that this idea would be a great idea for those who would. This idea could be released as a side mod now that I've had a chance to fully think about it (I was thinking deeper into this idea while typing this reply, and with the research of certain factors), but I can fully understand the disagreement with server owners wanting to have a perfect team. I think if this idea comes through that there should be a few limits on the feature whether it's a side mod, or a baked in feature for Pixelmon, maybe even Pixelmon Extras.

There have been servers in the past that have done things like this when doing resets. It's a plugin already I believe, just under a different name that I can't remember.

So servers do already have the option to do this for their players when they want to reset the world, without us adding it to the mod directly.

I honestly didn't know that there was a plugin for servers to allow players to store their Pokemon in a safe spot between resets. Thank you for bringing this to my attention.
