"Seeing" Pokemon

I am quite close to completing my National Pokedex and had the idea of getting the remaining pokemon off GTS. However, logging onto the GTS and a quick Google search showed that only pokemon you have "seen" can be traded for.

As I have gone through the map on Diamond multiple times, I have "seen" all the pokemon possible. I was wondering if there were any other ways of seeing them. One that occurred to me was doing battles over Wi-Fi, but I may be wrong. Any suggestions would be great.

All pokemon seen over wi-fi (as long as it is not a trade) are not counted in the dex.
You'll need to trade for the missing pokemon if you want to see them all. You will have to trade with someone over the wi-fi club as you can't trade for unseen pokemon at the GTS.

i'd say hit the trade forum & do trade/trade backs (or "TB's") with people to complete your pokedex

it's frustrating that the battle tower doesn't add pokemon to your dex - it would give even more of an incentive

Unfortunately,you get see Pokemon in the following ways:

Wi-FI battles
Battle Frontier battles
GTS

It is unfair that only people with working Wi-Fi connections can complete the Pokedex.

You don't need Wi-Fi to complete the Dex.

All you need is DPPt, HG/SS, and multiple DS systems.

Wi-Fi helps, a lot, but it isn't required.

All you need is the 2nd gen, 3rd gen and of course the 4th gen.
