Sadly, I think you may be right...
 
Edit: How could I have not seen the last page o.o

GTS is useful for completing the pokedex. Just throw up a scatterbug and see how far you can get. But there is always that bunch of people who begs desperatly for a 6IV, shiny, foreign event legendary. Preferably for their -insertdumbpokemonhere-

To ooDevolo, I currently only have 3 boxes of WT. Breeding and trading randomly I guess. There is always that one nice guy.

Yup, I'm right here. :)

Oh, you mean on Wonder Trade. Yes. I'm still perplexed over what to do with the female Japanese Lv.23 Charmander knowing four Egg Moves. LMAO

You do know that females pass down egg moves in XY, yes?
 
The other day I got a Lv.100 shiny charizard! When i looked at its ribbons, it has three: kalos champion ribbon, sinnoh champion ribbon, and a legend ribbon! I really hopr they didnt trade it on accident.

I know. I meant using it. LOL Also have to be careful not to lose any if I breed it.

I also have a new GTS opinion. I'll likely use it to try to fill out an "international" Pokédex. That way I can use something other than Ditto for Masuda Method, though I'll need to create something high-IV to breed the foreign one with first in many cases. So I'll trade mine for another of the same type.

Actually, if it's Kalos-bred (i.e. has the pentagon mark), you don't need to be careful to lose the egg moves. If it forgets the moves after breeding, you can take it to the move reminder lady in Dendemille Town and it can remember egg moves. But only if it's Kalos-bred, it won't work for transported Pokemon.

So the GTS should have been dead last generation, you're saying?

No, I love the wonder trade system. It is one of the best things they have added to pokemon in ages. But they have a habit of getting rid of the nice, good things they have added to games. I hope this is not one of them. I would love to see it in the remakes! ;P

It has to be in the remakes. That's four games swapping between each other instead of two, and more trade opportunities.
 
Sometimes I accidentally take out my high IV dude and lose all his egg moves. Then I have to grind heart scales all day long. Such a pain.

@CycloneGU, I just realised that if you get a foreign pokemon, it will be registered in a foreign pokedex! Too bad I can't read it, but it's kinda cool.

You can get Heart Scales from the PGL for just 100 Poke Miles each. If you WT a bit, or use the GTS, you can pretty much hoard them.

And apparently I missed another WT Wednesday, I even had a box ready, but I forgot about it. Do you guys to WT Wednesday, by the way?

You think they are going to allow X and Y to wonder trade with the remakes? That would be amazing! I would use it sooo much more then =D

An even better way of getting Heart Scales is teaching a pokemon Thief and going to beat up a LOT of Lovediscs... But sure, that works as well ;P

I often do that, with the help of my little pumpkin pokemon. But I always either forget to take the item out or I can fish up endless Lovedics that refuses to hold the scale even with the 50% chance.

Also, I'm real lazy.

Two words.

Compound Eyes.

I use my Lv.96 or so Butterfree, which is taught Thief. I've grabbed a lot of King's Rocks from Poliwhirl and sent them off with some special-bred Slowpokes. 5% goes to 20% and they actually come up more often than that sometimes, even in consecutive battles.
 
I've been wonder trading so much, I don't think I need anything from it anymore. Got every commonly traded Pokemon, and built many teams with the bred Pokemon that have been frying around. I just do it to gain the Pokemiles to level up my Pokemon to level 100.

-Smacks forehead- I'm such an idiot.

To aid random discussion, where is your preferred location while wonder trading? I like to either sit at home staring at the television or stand beside my rival looking like fabulous. Idk, sounds fun.

I like WT in a Pokémon Center sitting on a bench (standing if I'm lazy...which contradicts itself). It's like you're meeting someone there, which is the idea of a Pokémon Center in the anime, to meet others and trade info (and sometimes Pokémon). I even sit down when doing friend trades.
