I'm kind of surprised that wasn't included as an additional filter as well really. I wonder if it's something GF may consider for future titles?
I deposited into the GTS a couple times requesting a Drought Vulpix with my own HA. Took a couple tries, but I finally got it. XD

Ah, so HA is the international GTS term for Hidden Ability (should have figured really)
Thankfully I just managed to find a Friend Safari with the Pikachu's I wanted. maybe now I can breed some and spread the HA versions out to the people like me who have been searching for some, get some good GTS Karma.

Yup. ;p
That's good though! Speaking of, I need to go through a friend's Electric Safari to see if there's a Pichu in there. :B
That's really nice of you!
I'm going to do the same once I REALLY start breeding again; it's fun. c:

Is there any guide out there for common Japanese terms used in the GTS? I read Japanese fairly well but I'm hesitant to trade in case I'm accidentally ignoring a request on their part. I know things like the Japanese names for hidden abilities I can look up on Bulbapedia.

In any case, I traded an eevee with his hidden ability to someone requesting ゆめ on their trade. Yume = dream, right? Dream world ability?

I got a lot of good potential breeding parents from Wonder Trade yesterday. I was pretty happy about that.

Me too :) Got a bunch of perfect or near perfect foreign Pokemon today to breed for flawless and Shiny Pokemon. Even got 3 japanese Ditto's withing 10 minutes.
Wonder trade is great. Get better deals off Wonder Trade than on the GTS.

This has probably been asked before, but can I transfer over all the achievements and goodies from my White and White 2 worlds to my X/Y one (items, decorations, berries, etc.)?

Nope, just Pokemon.

So when the B/W Global Link is shut down, all that progress will be lost?

I haven't been fortunate enough to get any shinies through Wonder Trade yet. I'm surprised people would be so willing to give those away.

No, he means he got perfect IV pokemon, which he's going to use to breed shiny pokemon.

I've got a load of left over 5iv pokemon from my breeding projects. Think ill just wonder trade them away in the hopes ill get some nice foreign pokemon in return. Ill edit my post if I get anything worth mentioning.

So I finished wonder trading about 30 5iv pokemon and the best thing I got was a Japanese female gligar with immunity which is nice since I'm gonna be breeding for one later but that's all I really kept.

well I just wonder traded all my dratini's away, not IV bred sadly since im still trying to learn iv breeding. I did managed to get some almost iv bred pokemon from wonder trading them. I will be clearing out the pokemon that didnt get good iv results so I can iv bred a Pokemon that hatches faster, or just go for a shiny via masuda method. Whatever full boxes I have again I'll be wonder trading them away hoping for more foreign pokemon and others that are IV Bred

if i get a vivillon by trade and its a different design, if i breed it will the vivillon eventually have the same design or will it be the one i have.

Also if i breed the foreign one with my one will that work to get the different design, or do we literally have to trade to get the other designs?

Your dream points will be converted into Pokemiles (not a 1:1 conversion) and you will get a few medals based on what you did in the dream world (ie: buying houses and so on)

Otherwise yes, that "progress" will all be lost.

I to really wish abilities was a parameter. When I asked on the GTS for a Hidden Ability Goomy I got lucky and was sent one straight away thanks to some awesome person from Japan. Also got my Portean Froakie really fast. But now however I've been hunting for a Lightingrod Pichu/Pikachu and constantly get Static ones sent over, while in return they get Hidden Ability Eevee's (which I now need to go re-breed as I am almost out).

Well, to clarify you get better results when you're searching for them. When you're doing the deposit...well it seems English readers really don't do much English reading...it's what I'm complaining about.

All the eggs you breed in your own game will hatch with your native pattern, regardless of where the original Scatterbug/Spewpa/Vivillon from.

So if your native pattern is Meadow, for example, and you manage to get an Icy Snow Vivillon, any attempt to breed the Icy Snow pattern in your game will always result in Meadows.

Wonder Trade is so addicting, like a casino or something. I got some good natured Pokemon, but nothing spectacular yet!

At the moment I'm throwing Adamant Prankster Murkrows out there, but if anyone wants one just let me know. My FC is Jesse - 5386-8420-1438. I'm not looking for anything in particular - just want to spread Murkrow as far as I can. Lol.

Wonder Trade is great. Nothing worth mentioning received yet, but it's fun nonetheless.

I am breeding brave Honedges and sending some through Wonder trade ... I'm also interested in trading an egg for another egg of something you are breeding currently... ^^

I'm not the best at breeding - I haven't even beaten the elite 4 yet (I keep getting distracted by all the other things to do xD) but I do try to spread some of the things around. I'm actually pretty impressed with this Gen's crop of traders to be honest. I kind of shied away from GTS before because all I saw was ABSOLUTELY every pokemon being traded came with a Wanted: Impossible to get without hacking legendary. I'm still seeing some of that on GTS like Japanese dittos that are being offered for a legendary or a poke you can't get until Bank is out but its made up for by other people's generosity. I asked for an Aromatisse to breed some Spritzees and I got a shiny one from somebody in exchange for my houndour. I did trade a few low-level pokemon at first via Wonder Trade and got some pretty decent things in return so I'm trying to pay it forward by trading some good pokemon now that I am nearly through the game. Overall its been a very positive experience and I can't wait to see what comes out once the bank is up and running.
