Suggestions for Pokemon GO

Pokemon GO is great, don't get me wrong. But there are a few things id like to see in the game; either being needed, missing features or quality of life changes.

1. Some sort of nanab-razz combination.
They have silver pinaps and gold razz; so maybe there could
make some sort of bronze/copper nanab. nanabs are useful
for those erratic pokemon, but they aren't used since they
don't help catching itself. this will give them a use in catching
pokemon.

2. Nicknames in battles
Lots of people give quirky nicknames to pokemon, but there
really is no way to show that off other than as a buddy. Niantic
censors inappropriate names anyway, so there isn't any way to
have much of an offensive name in a gym for say.

3. A recent tab on friends list.
This may just be me, but I don't like having to scroll through to
find a specific friend again when i just sent them a gift or just
traded with them. This feature would put that friend on the
top/bottom of the list if you've traded, battled, or sent a gift to
them.

edit:
4. DMs.
a way to DM friends for battle challenges gifts. also a block
option too just in case.

Regarding point 2, I could easily come up with offensive names in Malay that the filters would not pick up. Even if English is your only language, creative misspellings can also bypass the filters.

True, but itd at least be nice to have nicknames with trainer battles. or just with friends at the least.

1. Actually sounds neat. A Bronze Nanab of sorts would compliment GRB and SP pretty well.

2. The name filter isn't as flawless as you'd expect. I have a Taillow nicknamed "I eat ass" with no altering of any of the words as a workaround.

3. I feel like the search bar sort of mitigates this well enough. What would be nice is the option to swipe left and right through the friends list.
