I am looking for a Tornadus in Pokémon Sword that I plan on using for ranked Doubles. I don’t care for his stats (including EVs and IVs), whether or not he’s shiny, level, or moves. I can handle all that myself after the trade with my Exp. Candies, vitamins, TMs/TRs, and hyper training. However, the Tornadus absolutely must have his regular ability Prankster instead of his hidden ability Defiant. Apparently, Ability Patches or Ability Capsules can't change a Pokémon's hidden ability, and Prankster is his much more useful ability. I'm willing to trade whatever I can, which we can discuss if you agree to trade. If you are willing to help me out, just reply to this topic and/or send me a DM. Thank you much!

I can bring one through from my old Black save from 2014!

Are you at all willing to potentially let me borrow (a) mythical(s) to add to my HOME 'dex, maybe run around the Isle of Armor for a minute or two taking a screenshot video, then return?

Not a deal-breaker if its a no - obviously there's a lot of trust involved there - as there are many things I don't have, but I figure I have to start asking for the big one if I ever want to get a truly complete 'dex.

p.s. I brought some Meltan into HOME, turns out I can't trade them there. I'm assuming its possible in link trades, so if you would like one for free I can throw that in too (even if you find a better Tornadus tbh, they're just wasted space to scroll past)

Alright, thanks a lot! That sounds great.

As for the Mythical Pokémon, that’s perfectly fine. Do you need a specific Mythical Pokémon, or any Mythical would do? I have only Mew, Jirachi (I think or possibly in HOME), Genesect, Diancie, Magearna, Marshadow, Volcanion, Zeraora, Melmetal, and Zarude.

A free Meltan? I always wanted one, but I never knew how to get one. You’re far too kind!

By the way, I am not sure what times you’re on, but I am very likely to be on all night from the time of this post, so just respond to me here or send me a message on Discord if you got it. I can get an alert on my phone if it do it through Discord. My name there is Sweet Serenity #8131.

I'm just interested in the mythicals I have no way of accessing. Thankfully I have unlimited Mew and Jirachi from BDSP if I want, likewise Melmetal is just a case of grinding on GO (got a shiny!) Conveniently the rest of your list - Genesect, DIancie, Magearna, Marshadow, Volcanion, Zeroara, Zarude - are the ones I have no way of getting! I'd take the opportunity to see all of them but obviously that's a real risk and a time-suck for you so...Zarude. I've technically started playing Gen VIII during the generation so that's the one that stings the most.

Is that your usual activity pattern? Normally I'm available for another 30 minutes but I'm really tired so gonna leave it tonight. Usually available between 17:00 and 23:00 British time (22:57 when I post this), but can stretch it later on a Friday and obviously plenty of availability on a weekend :)

You want to borrow my Mythicals for a little bit to take screenshots with them? If so, then that’s fine. I don’t mind that at all. I trust you. At the moment, I will be free until further notice, as I am on summer vacation. I have a lot of time on my hands for the time being, so I am not worried about time. I usually just stay up all night until I fall asleep for now, so I don’t have a real schedule at the moment. Yet, whenever you send me a message, I would very likely be free. If you’re tired, then that’s fine too. We don’t have to do it tonight. Just know that I have plenty of time on my hands right now, so whenever you’re ready, just hit me up anytime! If you do Discord, I can get the alert quicker and we can chat in real time as we trade, but either way we do it is completely fine.

Yeah I mean if you had one you could part with permanently I’d take it, but I know their value so my alternative is take a bunch of screenshots and get their Pokédex data into my HOME dex so I can get that special Magearna eventually.

I don’t do Discord, I’ll message later on tonight when I know I’m not going to be disturbed

Okay, I'll be ready in about 15 minutes. How many Meltan do you want? Can't evolve them, but I could easily give you all 4 as I can get more whenever I want :)

EDIT: false alarm, didn’t realise transfer from Bank wasn’t instant. Let’s say I’ll be available in an hour instead

Alright, good timing! I am here. All I need to do is fire up my game.

Awesome. Link Code is 2374 2374

Like I said, how many Meltan do you want?
Just one would be perfectly fine. By the way, I have an extra Magearna that you can keep.

Oh, awesome thank you!

So to clarify, how many pokémon are we trading right now? I'm sending Tornadus first obviously
You said that you wanted to borrow my Mythicals, right? If so, we can do that.

Also I have like...no trade fodder in my boxes whatsoever, so here comes some hacked legends I picked up on Wonder Trade.
That's fine. I can just get rid of the hacked ones. Whenever I get them in Wonder Trade, I release them. It turns out that I actually do have Victini, but I think Genesect in is Pokémon HOME because I can’t find it, so that's it for now.

It’s all good, Victini was actually my favourite battle entry (I ran, of course - not going to mess up your EVs).

I’ll be back on in a moment with the same link code 2374 2374

So just to check, you’re sure I can keep the Magearna?

By the way, because I noticed that I have extra an Volcanion (I guess I received the event from two different games), Zarude (which I got from a trade when I asked about missing the event long ago before learning that I actually found a working code in my email), and Magearna (all that is required to get her is to scan a QR code and talk to a guy in the mall in Alola), you can keep those three.

Wait, in fact, I am going to need that Zarude back. The one that I gave you is the one that I used in my own battles when I found my own working code. I can give you the other one that I received in the trade.

Oh wow, thank you so much!

Damn, forgot HOME puts their items in the bag. Can you remember what they were holding? I feel like Zarude had a Zoom Lens?
I don't know if you saw this? All I can tell is they weren't holding anything I don't already have, as I don't have an ! in my bag

Yes, Zarude was holding a Zoom Lens. I think that Marshadow was holding a Lucky Egg, but I have plenty of those. I don’t think the others were holding any items.

Just realised I had screenshots showing that's the case! I've put a couple of nuggets and a tart apple on to the others anyway. ACTUALLY coming online now!

Thanks very much for this, made my day!
No problem!

And thank you so much for your trade, Amore! I strongly appreciate it. I am going to try to make it to Master Ball tier in Doubles and climb the leaderboard with Tornadus over this weekend. He's one of the best Pokémon for that job. My ranked team is nearly perfect now! Thanks again! Oh, by the way, whenever you want to see Genesect, just send me a message or reply to me whenever you have time. I have to transfer it from Pokémon HOME though to make that happen.

That sounds like a challenge, I think I briefly touched Great Ball with my Kanto starters and Zacian. Hope genie gets you there!

Cool, yeah maybe tomorrow or something if I see you online
