    I've had mixed luck - I got a Froakie on one trade, and a Bunnelby on the next .__. I try and give away pokémon who evolve through trade, rarer pokémon or freshly hatched pokémon, so someone will really enjoy them!

  • I think I'm gonna start evolving the Bunnelby I keep getting. Send out that big macho rabbit instead and see if it's more appreciated, lol.

    My more recent endeavors yielded my first Protean Froakie. A little sad its Male but I can attempt to breed a female Protean so I can test Egg Moves. The other was a fully trained Tyrantrum. I was shocked when I got this bad boy. Maxed Attack and HP EVs with some in speed it seemed. May not be the best choice, but I can reset if I need to...though its only bad quality is it has a Special Attack boosting nature that lowers Attack.

  • I've been in a holiday spirit or something the past couple of days because I put together a full box of various pokémon that are Halloween themed and nicknamed (favorite being the Lanturn named Jack-O') and I have wonder traded half of them so far. I decided to be even nicer and made them all catch Pokérus and gave them slightly rarer berries. So far I have received some nice pokémon such as Chansey and others with good natures and hidden abilities. I love wonder trade. It's so addictive and lately I rarely get a terrible trade.

  • No, Bunnelby is. I seem to get loads of Charmander as well, probably those "breeding rejects." Some are useful, though.
    So lucky! I've been hoping someone would be generous enough to trade me a Charmander over Wonder Trade, but no dice yet. I did happen to receive a Super Large Pumpkaboo today though. It's now a very large Gourgeist that I plan on EV training and leveling up.

  • I mostly trade Gibles because I have hundreds of them, and I personally think I've received decent Pokémon from Wonder Trades.

    Heatmor(lvl 45), Froakie, Dwebble, Caterpie, Electrike and Cubone.

    Someone traded me a gengar for my shroomish. I feel kinda bad....

    On the plus side my shroomish had pokerus and the gengar looks like it was caught as a haunter and evolved straight away. I guess it evens out.

  • I've been wonder trading left and right throughout the game, and I've gotten all three Kalos starters, two Johto starters (Squirtle with aurasphere :O and an ivysaur), several nice pokes left and right (including a ghastly i wanted to get a gengar) and I've been trying to send off ok pokemon. I try not to send useless ones like oddish and whatnot, but I generally wonder trade again any useless pokes i get :P

    Hey everyone. I'm new to the forums, but I wanted to drop in here and say that I've been naming my wonder trades (at)NomadRT in the hopes that someone out there would figure out that this was really @NomadRT and then contact me via Twitter.

    Not all of them... (would be too time consuming when I'm trying to breed a shiny), but at least a healthy number of them were named this way.

  • I love Wonder Trade. I try to only send out interesting things over it, so the fossil Pokemon, starters, Pokemon with Hidden abilities, hard to find Pokemon (Carbink, Noibat), foreign Pokemon (that I received but don't need), and trade evolutions...that's what I'm always sending out. I don't mind getting lame stuff if I don't already have it (got a Zigzagoon yesterday and jumped around cause I didn't have it and I really like Zigzagoon lol).

    I've gotten some good stuff through it though! Adamant Mawile, Gengar, Pumpkaboo, Trevenant, Protean Froakie, Zigzagoon...probably other stuff, I just can't think, lol.

    Yes, wonder trade is pretty awesome. I also enjoy sending out rare/interesting pokemon. I've been breeding for a shiny eevee and all the babies go into wonder trade. They all have Wish so it's a pretty cool giveaway. I don't mind whatever I get, since I usually keep all the pokemon traded to me until I play lottery that day, and then I keep the ones that are actually useful to me (rare abilities, good IVs/Nature, Move breeders and foreign pokemon).

    I'm addicted to Wonder Trade... o:

  • I was able to get some stuff I hadn't come across yet at the point of the game I was in. Got a noibat fairly early on which was nice since I wanted to play through with a noivern. I've now got that noivern to level 99 thanks to extra exp from trading plus pokemon-amie and a lucky egg.
    Plus I got a adamant tyrunt with the elemental fangs.

  • My friend threw a bunch of scatterbugs like a douchebag and got the monkey trio pretty high-leveled (in the 40's).

  • So far my best gems from WT are Shiny Poliwhirl with an attached King's Rock, Shiny Qwilfish, Shiny Magikarp, perfect IV Protean Froakie with a Timid Nature.

    Also managed to receive all of the version exclusive fossils, which I'm happy about.. That being said I've had 300-ish trades so far, it's so addictive! (Apart from the Bidoof and Fletchling)
