>not being able to get things you don't have because everyone in GTS wants event mons for their shit
Anyone else feeling the struggle of catching them all?
Of course I'm going to, I want a shiny charm and a feeling of accomplishment

>GTS being shit
Put your mon up for something fair. Trade version exclusives, offer better mons for small things.

I bred a bunch of Rotom and saved all the 5iv ones. Trading off all of those was plenty to get what I needed, and the trades were snapped up.

Breeding and level grinding sucks, sure. But the GTS is your friend.

I'm almost done with the hoenn dex, just need to get the trade evolutions done. The rest is gonna be good. I also heard you could just get a bunch of ditto sand sell them at 6 IV. They'll go in a second.

Scrolling through my boxes or Pokedex is so goddamn satisfying now.

offer pokemon on GTS instead of looking for them. chances are, if the thing you are asking for isn't legendary, you are guaranteed someone will make the trade. people are just looking to complete their dex too. when a pokemon shows up on gts that isnt asking for something ridiculous, its jumped upon. you literally just have to not be picky. no special levels or specific genders. just ask for what you want, and wait.

What is even the point if you're not capturing as much as possible yourself.

can confirm also. just use dittos and lie about their stats. "just offer instead of look" guy is also dishing out good advice. just be smart OP.

Quoted By:

GTS search is almost unreliable because of how many bullshit offers there are. Really hope that GF at least puts some sort of time-limit on how long offers can stay up on the GTS this time around, that would keep it from getting clogged with pages upon pages of "Level 1 Rattata for level 100 Celebi" bullshit.

But the option to look for offers for only pokemon that you currently have and being able to filter offers for "special" pokemon help a lot.

I traded around legendaries for legendaries, worked pretty well for me.

As I said I pretty much did the hoenn dex and dex nav shit, plus I did all the box breeding I could. This is more for the unobtainable shit and legendaries.

Only with friends. Trading in Pokémon is meant to connect people.

I'm this guy >>26636825 and all I've traded is a Valluby with a buddy who needed a Timid Protean Froakie.
