How to evolve pokemon like Machoke, Haunter, etc. Alone!
 
All you need is WiFi. (yes, I know, why wouldn't you just trade anyways, because, this way is easier!)

First discovered by someone on serebii, so no, I do not claim this info as my own, but I have tried and tested this to confirm before I post ^.~

First off, go to the GTS with the pokemon you want to evolve, attach an item if it needs one to evolve.

Secondly, put it in GTS and request something no one would ever do it for, such as a level 100.

Thirdly, Leave the GTS, reenter, as soon as you're back on the main screen, click summary and press take out of the GTS. When the pokeball flies back down and the pokemon comes back to you, the pokemon will evolve.

Happy Evolving ^.~

Thank you so much I was wondering how to do that!!!

Myzou April 30th, 2007 9:42 PM

This is weird... it works on my pearl version, but doesn't on my diamond O.o;; Must do further tests...

LawLessChaoz April 30th, 2007 9:45 PM

Worked for me on Pearl! My it is daimond>

Myzou April 30th, 2007 9:46 PM

Ok, it appears that certain pokemon seem to have a time limit they have to be on the GTS for it to work, On the thread on serebii, some people get it to work instantly, others have to wait hours... Hmm... I'll pull out the machoke I put on in another 5 min and see if it worked...

LawLessChaoz April 30th, 2007 10:36 PM

My Machoke didn't work yet and I've waited like an hour.

Samson April 30th, 2007 10:36 PM

i have a good question. where is the GTS? lol

Ichida April 30th, 2007 10:43 PM

XDDDD! Nice work discovering this!

Samson, it's in Jubilife.

Myzou April 30th, 2007 11:11 PM

Hmm... Machoke doesn't seem to work this way, yet to see someone evolve one...

LawLessChaoz April 30th, 2007 11:15 PM

I'll wait a day and try again.

Myzou May 1st, 2007 1:58 AM

Been testing, from what I've seen, Item Trade Evolutions work, i.e. Magmar, Electabuzz, Onix, however, Kadabra, Machoke, and Haunter do not, and someone posted I posted this on pkmncommunity when I'm on serebii too XD (You posted like 2 posts below mine on there XD)

Doing further tests tomorrow, as I need sleep :/

Damn... I use an Alakazam in nearly every team I make, and if this sort of thing worked, that would make my life oh so much easier.

Please let me know if you find a way!

Dudedude May 1st, 2007 5:18 AM

Myzou...that was me...I am XyrontheFalcon..lol..

Ichida May 1st, 2007 5:31 AM

Ahh, so Item-Trade Evolutions work. This is great news. Makes things much simpler for me. ^-^

Shiny_Latios May 1st, 2007 9:06 AM

Can you just set up a private trade with yourself if you have both and do it that way? but this could be a good way for peopel with only the one game

SSJ_Joe May 1st, 2007 12:44 PM

this should go under the American D/P glitch thread as well

I didn't see anyone answer your question, so I'll do it for you ^-^

The GTS is the Global Trade Station. It was in Jubilife City, and you can only get into it. Thats where the guy told you that people without at least one badge wasn't allowed in if you ever found that.

~*!*~Tatsujin Gosuto~*!*~ May 1st, 2007 1:01 PM

wow this is so cool I'm going to try this out

My machoke still didn't work so it must be only item trades.

Myzou May 6th, 2007 12:04 AM

Has now been confirmed!

First, put up your pokemon in the GTS, your safest bet would be to ask for something like a level 9 and under salamence or empoleon, etc. Things that are impossible.

Next, search the GTS for any pokemon and complete a trade in the GTS. Such as what I did, a bidoof for a starly.

Finally, go back and hit summary, press take out, and it will evolve. The CRUCIAL step is conducting another trade, I have confirmed this in evolving Electabuzz, Machoke, Haunter, Kadabra, and Graveler.

idontnoWHOiam May 6th, 2007 7:16 AM

Hmm, I did something similar, but not the same. When my Machoke got to lvl.30 I put it on the GTS and requested a lvl.30 or higher Machoke. The machoke I got in return was on lvl 38, it evolved, and I even get the traded pokemon experience bonus :3

GrieVelorn May 6th, 2007 3:04 PM

I think that what you got was a different machoke alltogether.
This is going to be so cool now i can evolve stuff without haveing to find some one to let me use there game for it

GTS Glitch
 
OK this glitch is fairly simple. as you all know some pokemon evolve by trading. ie. porygon-prygon2

for this glitch to work first you need to decide which pokemon you wish to evolve. If it is one that also requires an item give it to it now.

Now enter the GTS room and deposit the pokemon.

I suggest you put it up for exchange with something highly unreasonable to ensure no one gets it.

NOW for the HARD part you MUST make a trade over the GTS if you wish you can look for another pokemon that evolves by trade and simply trade for it or just some random thing.

*note*have not tried to see if it is possible to trade to yourself on GTS
*edit*Has now been tested and it is inconclusive because the searching function is random so it is highly unlikly if even possible to find yourself. But if you do get lucky and find yourself im NOT saying that it won't work or that it will.

then when the trade is complete simply take back the pokemon that you deposited and it SHOULD evolve.

*note2* can also be done to get the add experiance gain you get for it being a traded pokemon

*note3*Have tested to see if trading over the gts is required and it IS

*note4*DOES work on American

*note5*Tested with a Porygon to obtain Porygon2 and will test possiblity to trade with yourself to get same affect

*disclaimer*Be aware that this glitch could be fixed at anytime assuming they have enabled system patching over their wifi network

Omg this worked, i was looking online for hours and this website was down for me, thanks a bunch i finnally got my steelix

Thanks!!

Matt Rage May 17th, 2007 3:46 AM

thx myzou this is great!!

Psi Yamaneko May 17th, 2007 9:52 AM

Hn...My results seem to be different.

I'll tell you the tale of Taliesin, my Kadabra.

Curious to see if this worked, I put him for trade on GTS. Something Error'd and I was booted off. I went back into GTS and Taliesin was up for trade. I did some searching around, did NOT trade anything then left. Then I came back again and took Taliesin out and he EVOLVED...and cloned.

Yes, in my party there are now TWO Taliesins where once there was one. Taliesin the Kadabra and Taliesin the Alakazam. Same fella. Same nature, same base stats. I'm gonna see if I can repeat this with Moebius, my other Kadabra.

Edit: Was unable to repeat this with Moebius...huh...I wonder what happened back there.

BlueHippo May 17th, 2007 9:55 AM

quite neat, and good to know, thanks :)

You got lucky and triggered the cloning glitch. That's what happened.

Anyway...Myzou, this is a pretty neat trick to keep in mind. Nothing that I'd probably use, but I can see it being useful for others.

Psi Yamaneko May 17th, 2007 11:48 AM

I wasn't aware there WAS a cloning glitch in D/P. Not sure what I did to trigger it.

There indeed is. The problem is that so many things can go wrong with it that it isn't worth trying IMO.

(sorry to go off-topic)

You have to wait 10-20 min.

You need Wi-Fi for it to work? Or just put it in and take it out?

CyberBlader August 23rd, 2007 1:42 AM

Lol.
Awsome finding this cheat i'll use it for Porygon-Z
:D
