>>37285484At least back in the day it wasn't that hard to do because literally everyone owned pokemon.
It's still bullshit though. Unless your trade partner also has a trade evo pokemon, you're just dragging him along so you can trade into his game and then trade back. It's just a fucking nuisance. GF should've alleviated this long ago by implementing a "trade stone". Use it like an evo stone to evolve haunter/machoke/kadabra/golem. Use it on an onix/scyther holding metal coat to evolve into steelix/scizor, and so on. It's so simple.
Nobody likes finding random people willing to be used as a trade monkey just for someone else to trade over and back.
