XD In all my years of playing
Pokemon Sapphire and
Pokemon Emerald (and even
Pokemon Ruby), not once have I seen this darn infamous Mirage Island. XD It's really irritating, especially after I've attained 999:59 (maximum play-time) in
Emerald and I now have a broken internal battery.. >_>

I doubt global Pokemon trading would make that much of a difference in regards to encountering Mirage Island... If you wanted a Pokemon with a different personality value, you could just catch another random wild Pokemon, right...? I don't think that personality values of a given Pokemon are specifically tied to Original Trainers or something...
As for encountering it, the method needs to be kept the same; it is ridiculously hard to see as it is! I kind of hope the Liechi Berry is made hard to get but reasonably attainable in OR/AS (like as a costly Battle Frontier prize?), instead of having to rely on an island's appearance to have the best Pokemon Contest Conditions/performance. >_> I don't really care about Wynaut, because I can just breed Wobbuffet...
Cartridges that haven't hit maximum play time but have a broken internal battery (the one that tracks clock-based events) arguably have an easier time encountering Mirage Island (since the number stops changing every day and remains fixed, allowing one to potentially test his or her whole PC on the "Mirage Island man"), but the odds are still difficult..
