Trade evolutions have always been a scam that force you to buy a second console and game just to obtain certain Pokemon. Throughout the gens there have been methods of catching them in the wild, such as gen 5's rippling water (for Milotic) and dust clouds (for Steelix) and the S.O.S method in gen 7, but the problem with these methods are that they are extremely RNG based. In SWSH, many trade evolutions can be caught in the wild with guaranteed spawns in the overworld. However, some people may say that this makes it too easy to catch these Pokemon, but, what if instead, they could only be caught in certain dungeons while still having 100% spawns, like in pic related? This makes it so that not only can these Pokemon be caught via a method that isn't reliant on RNG but also something that requires the player to use their brain instead of just simply walking up to the Pokemon out in the open without challenge.

What do you think /vp/?
