>>51079449Kids don't understand fair trade yet. They are looking at a screen that tells them they can trade for any pokemon they want. The kids think they are clever by putting up route 1 shitmons for a legendary because it's the best deal for them.
Now that I think about it, the GTS has never had any real tutorial to teach you exactly how it functions. With all the handholding and NPC interrupts throughout the games, it never does this for the GTS. Your rival doesn't stop you the first time you enter the GTS to explain that you are trading with real people and that you should try to make each trade a fair equal exchange.
