!!! Please READ everything before posting !!!
- All SPPf rules and Trade Forum Rules apply.
- No trading/asking for hacked Pokemon, no spamming, no flaming, etc.
- Be very specific about everything you are trading and/or offering.
- Offer or look for at least 10 Pokemon.
- Any less and you can just use the other sections.
- Trading items and/or offering services in your thread is fine, but it doesn't count towards the minimum of 10 Pokemon.
- You cannot make a thread just for items.
- Do not display/link to external websites.
- Linking to other sites is considered advertising and is not allowed.
- You may also not say "see my sig" in the first post. List down everything in the first post of your trade shop.
- Absolutely no off-topic posts.
- The only posts allowed in the thread are updates by the shop owner, making/accepting offers, and clarification. Any chatting will be infracted and deleted.
- Exchange messages privately.= through PM/VM/whatever else have you.
- You may only post once per page. Each page has a maximum of 20 posts.
- Only make one thread per generation, ever.
- The only exception is if you PM a moderator of the trade forum and ask for your old thread to be closed, then you may make a new one if the mod allows you to. You must have a good reason for wanting your thread closed.
- Conduct the trades PRIVATELY.
- You may only double-post/bump under certain circumstances.
- You may only bump if:
- You are the owner of the thread.
- You have a significant update to the thread.
- It has been at least 48 hours since your last post in the thread.
- You may only bump if:
- "Services" such as Breeding, EVing, Leveling, and such are allowed.
- Those who offer services are closely watched. Scamming someone or using any form of hacking/cheat devices (such as PKHeX) will result to a ban.
- Services also don't count towards the minimum of 10 Pokemon required to post a thread.
- Do not bother moderators asking if/when your thread will be approved.
- We go through when we have time. If it has been a long time and your thread has not been approved, you probably did not follow the rules. Re-read and see what you could have done wrong, then try again.
- No game-type threads to win prizes of Pokemon.
- If you want to give away Pokemon for free or as a contest prize or something, please use the Giveaways and Contests Thread.
- No trading for other-game goods, real money, or anything other than things within a Pokemon game.
