Anyone saying it encourages communication is completely bullshitting. In reality this is what happens:
>on GTS you dump a mon that might be useful and request for a mon you want, and a random stranger trades for it
>with the new method you make a request for a mon you want online and keep watch until a random stranger says yes and posts their code, make the trade, and then fuck off
They're both the same, only one is less cumbersome than the other. You know what really encouraged communication? XY's messages where you can actually see what the hell people were up to or wanted as you were both simultaneously playing the game.
