i'm with you on this i hate it I wanted a munchlax and there was no realistic one, only ones with Palkia lvl 40 and up stuff like that well **** it i hate it there is no realistic trading this way and the whole GTS idea get's ****ed this way
 
I heard someone got a Lv.100 Shiny Mew off it...IMO, it was probably hacked in some way..

You just have to be persistent. Don't let it scare you away. ;) I make lots of worthwhile trades on the GTS, although most of the ones in my favor have been from when I offer a Pokemon for another. I make the less profitable trades by searching for them.

It's kind of expected that when you put one up you're going to ask for something at least slightly "better" than what you're offering. Sure it's ridiculous when people take that concept way too far, and sure it gums up the works with worthless trade offers. But it's inevitable. The same was true on the Japanese games too. You just have to learn to get around it. ;)

Edit: oh, and Braindead-Coma, I'd change that sig before a mod finds it, lol. That thing's way too big. It stretches my screen. :p

well i only get the pokes i wanted bcause i offered nummerous Shieldons online but i never found anything i wanted by searching.

the only trade i made by searching was a lvl 15 bidoof for my lvl 20 bonsly but that was just to try out the evolving glitch with my kadabra. Well it worked :D

I know they get things for crappy pokemon, but it gets annoying for we that just want to trade stuff of the same category.

Also what the hell, everyone wants a Dialga or Palkia... no matter what you ask for lol. Is just plain stupid.

Yes it is frustrating indeed when searching for any cherubi and mostly what they want is a dialga or palkia. A cherubi!

I wonder how many have fallen for such offers though.

Calm down and if you are tired, sit on your bed, take a book, read a little and relax, relax... People who want unique pokemon and they have common pokemon to offer are just kids. They are 8-12 years old only so are immature and naive.

Fallen, nothing. :p Hacked is more like it. If any of those trades actually go through, it's usually the result of a hack. Not to say anything bad about hacks, but if you're not expecting to get a hacked Pokemon, you shouldn't make such unreasonable demands, lol.

Thats life people are genorus in the world and would do it.Lvl 1 magikarp for a lvl 100 Mewtwo perfect evs and someone got it so funny.
 
I seen plenty of those offers, and I do agree, they are annoying. It seems that more than half of the people on GTS want Palkia or Dialka. I've also seen people want evo's that don't and shouldn't exist at the level that they are asking for (lv. 9 or under arbok) and I've seen a lv. 5 Salamence up for trade (so much for the block that nintendo guarenteed....). What I do is just state what I want, and wait to receive. I try to offer a very reasonable offer, beneficial more to the person who wants what I have (I have almost eveything anyways), but not ridiculous. Like the other people have said, the weak for strong trades do happen however. It would just be nice if those people would stop being so greedy.

I believe I put up a shiny Lugia for a Cresselia once. XD I'm pretty fair and nice when it comes to GTS trades. An event pokemon for some female pokemon used for breeding or anything I like... Yeah. I just hated it when a shiny Giratina was up for a level 20 Armaldo. Gah. >_> The "Piplup for Dialga" doesn't bother me too much. Just wait until the US and UK kids get and beat the game. They're more greedy than Japanese. 8D
