How the fuck are you supposed to communicate with people when trading with random acquaintances/passerby?
Some Jap guy wanted to trade and he showed me a ditto, but every time I would try to offer him something for it he'd switch it to a jigglypuff or some other shit I made it clear I already had and I had to cancel the trade. On the other hand I traded with someone from Oregon and we both found something each other wanted right away.
How do you guys usually handle trading without sitting there rifling through the same pokemon forever?
