(FINISHED!) The Great Pok?Community Wonder Trade Bonanza
Wonder Trade. You all know what it is. It's that wondrous system where you put up a Pok?mon for trade, and you don't know what you're going to get from the other end! You can get anything from a random Level 2 Yungoos caught on Route 1, all the way up to a shiny Level 100, fully battle-ready Arceus! From what I've seen, I haven't really seen a major Wonder Trade event hosted on Pok?Community, so why not host one of my own.
1. Actually find the damn thing! Open the menu with "X", select "Festival Plaza", tap the big blue "Trade" button and then select "Wonder Trade".
2. Select your Pok?mon.
3. Watch as it gets traded for god knows what!
4. Report on what you traded in the topic itself, and how many Wonder Trades you did. DO NOT RETRADE THE SAME BOX SLOT!
For the duration of the GT, all Wonder Trades will take place between 7:00 PM UTC and 10:00 PM UTC. If you want to join and we don't know your tribe, state your tribe in your post, and you will be added to the list! You can join whenever you want, but for the sake of points, it is encouraged you join as early as possible!
Wow, I have a lot of useless Pikipeks in the PC. Can I Wonder Trade them?
Well, you can, but Pikipek are extremely common. Most players have them, and most Wonder Traders look for new Pok?mon that they may not have yet, or intend to put out their good Pok?mon to the masses. Putting out common Pok?mon on Wonder Trade ruins the fun of "Hey! What are you gonna get?" and turns it into "Wow! I got 30 Grubbins from Wonder Trade!" while in turn ruining the system for everyone. For examples to mind out for, there's a list of blacklisted Pok?mon that are banned from trading as part of the event.
But I don't have any amazing shiny 6IV Kyogres to put on Wonder Trade! How do I make my Pok?mon "good"?
You don't need ultra rare Pok?mon like the Kyogre mentioned here if you want to please someone on Wonder Trade. There's several ways in which to do it.
- Nicknames! Nickname the precious Pok?mon that you send out over Wonder Trade! Just don't send anything offensive!
- Egg moves! They might just be for the good of the breeders and competitive battlers, save them some work searching the right breeding pair!
- Hidden Abilities! Stuff like Rough Skin Garchomp and Speed Boost Blaziken remain in high demand. Some of them are extremely rare!
- Pok?mon not found in the Alola region! A lot of Pok?mon are only available through Pok?mon Bank, such as Ferroseed and Nidoran. Some people don't have Bank, so do them a cool favour and make their day by sending them something cool like that!
- Held items! Anything that evolves when traded with an item, such as Feebas or Porygon, will be very welcomed if they have their respective item! Alternatively, give your Pok?mon useful battle items such as Choice Band or Life Orb.
- Rare balls! Pok?mon in rare and special balls such as Love Ball and Heavy Ball are commonly sought after.
- Tutor moves! Some cool moves are only available through Move Tutors, such as Hyper Voice Eevee and Drain Punch Chesnaught.
- Trade evolutions! It's great for people who need to fill their Pok?dex but don't have anyone to trade with!
Scoring system:
The base score of a Pok?mon plus:
- 1 point per perfect IV
- 4 points if a Hidden Ability
- 3 points if holding an item
- 2 points for a nice nickname
- 1 point per egg move or tutor move
- 10 points if it is a Shiny Pok?mon!
- 2 points for participation
These points are stackable on top of each other. For example, a 6IV Protean Froakie will net you 13 points.
Prizes:
At the end of this event, Z-crystals will be awarded to whoever gets the top 3!
1st place: Primarium Z (150 points!)
2nd place: Fairium Z (50 points!)
3rd place: Normalium Z (20 points!)
Blacklisted Pok?mon - DO NOT TRADE THEM!
Well, there is one problem with Wonder Trade, and the problem is that people throw up useless crap from the early game that nobody wants. To make this event more interesting for everyone and the Wonder Trade itself, the following Pok?mon are forbidden from being traded as part of this event. Trading any of them will result in a deduction of 5 points for their tribe.
Exceptions to the rule: if they have redeeming qualities, such as egg moves, Hidden Abilities and perfect IVs, then they can be traded, but their overall score will be halved. For example, a 6IV Caterpie will only net you 3 points! Should it come down to half a point, it will be rounded down. Otherwise, please refrain from trading freshly caught Pok?mon from the first few routes!
