Wonder Trade Stories - Sun and Moon Edition

Absolutely Absol

It's just Absol...
It seems be legit though unlucky for breeder, I guess. Probably she already have better shiny one.

Anyway, I got male Salandit in Master Ball... wut? Still unlucky with wonder trades.

Holy cow. I just bred some Mankeys and put one up on Wonder Trade and got a Phermosa in return.

Bump, can anyone please confirm if this pkmn is legit? i really want to use it in the competitions when i can correct the missing 31 IV on it. if its not a legit Trapinch then i'll keep it ingame but id prefer to battle with it. ive since evolved it to lvl 59 Flygon with EVs and moves.

btw, why isnt there any hack check thread in gen7 trading forum? it seems like a useful thread to have in there.

I'm sure they hatched it there. So yeah, it's extremely likely it's legit.

EDIT: Oh, wait, it WAS shiny. It's still likely to be legit, but it's at least legal.

yeah, i was wondering if id ever have to do a MM run just to get a shiny Flygon in gen7 as i dont ever transfer shiny pkmn from previous generations. its a shame i messed up getting super power on it before i evolved Trapinch. i honestly dont care if the IVs were worse, its a legit shiny that is only missing the ability to rename it to what i want. it has all the other things id want on a shiny Flygon down to the ball and nature. i must say its a tough choice choosing between nest ball and potential friend ball but either is a good choice. it was the best trade i ever got on Sun to this point and i dont think it can get any better.

Shiny legendary or mythical, probably, hacked or not. It'll happen one of these days.

hard to tell TBH, though if i managed to get a legit good nature 5IV Suicune from an online trade then that will be very close to it. i cont care much about shinies or for 99% of the legends, i rarely use legends anyway.

Been wonder trading a lot this weekend. I never did so in XYORAS because of the rumour that the bad eggs some people had in their games were linked to it and I didn't want to run the risk of it happening to me. I've been having a lot of fun with it and have gotten a couple of good Pokemon out of it. I mostly just get junk which I put straight back in or release if they have horrible or insulting nicknames.

Anyone else get countless Magikarp?

Yeah, but i release them, same with other pokemon i consider to be trash.

Also, i never heard that Bad Egg rumor back in the Gen 6 days, and it never happened to me, and I Wonder Traded ALL THE TIME.

I've yet to really get a ground-breaking Wonder Trade this gen. Last gen netted me a 6IV Shiny Bagon, but that was two years ago...

Ooooooh man that actually happened to me in my Y game. I had to trade everything I owned of value to my sisters game and completely restart cause I didn't know what else to do. And then I swore off Wonder Trading for a whole month, and only began again because other people convinced me to get back to it.

And yeah I got a lot of Magikarp. One of them is in a Lure Ball, which I'm glad I got.

I can't bring myself to release most of what I get in fear of the pokemon I release having the ID number that will net me the winning lottery, which I now realize is a stupid reason...

Brb, releasing over 5 boxes worth of trash :D

i just got a lvl 100 modest tapu lele from WT but im not sure if its legit. it has full HP/DEF evs with hidden power fire. it has perfect HP, SDF, DEF IVs and the other 3 IVs are at 30. it does have pokerus active and all moves are PP maxed. the biggest thing im worried about is the OT: 098353 AuSLove.TV. i know that the OT has a history of playing with pkmn stats.

It sucks that happened to you. I would have been so gutted if it happened to me as I have a lot of Pokemon on my X as well as all my friend safaris and maxed out playtime. Couldn't risk losing that.

Think I got a Lure Ball Magikarp as well but I put it straight back into WT because I prefer Gyarados in Quick or Fast Balls personally so had no use for the Lure Ball one. Also got a Beast Ball one which I traded away too.

Definitely hacked unfortunately. The odds of getting that spread legitimately are absurdly low and AusLove.TV is a well known hacker. I'd get rid of the Tapu Lele personally.

To stay on topic, I haven't wonder traded much since last time I posted but I didn't get anything that good anyway. I did get a Love Ball Mawile with 4 egg moves which I can definitely use for breeding which is nice and I think I got a 4 egg move HA Buneary as well (can't remember if I still have this one). I'm in the process of MMing for a shiny Salandit or Jangmo-o so I might put some of the rejects into WT and see if I get anything worthwhile.

thanks, ive received a legit tapu fini from WT 2 weeks???? ago and put it up for a GTS to get a calm gen2 Suicune. i saw the tapu lele and thought it might be useful for trades or battle until i sw the OT. not sur if i'll release it but it wont be used by me.

Reminds me of this Arceus I got over Wonder Trade. Jolly, 6IV, seemed to be the 20 anni Arceus, had an OT similar to the one you mentioned but some other guy, and oh also it was shiny.

If hacked pokemon could be more obvious, they would just look like Missingno.

if hacked pkmn looked like missingno then we'd be in huge trouble for our save files. i did end up releasing the tapu lele soon after the post and saved right after to prevent 2nd thoughts.

i'm a newbie with the game but is there anything bad (that may happen to my game) in keeping hacked Pokemon you receive in WonderTrade?

Not that I know of but as for me, I wouldn't want to keep any Pokemon that has a blank name or blank OT due to an incident that broke my Platinum game years ago. I received an Arceus from Gen 6's Wonder Trade with a completely blank nickname and I got rid of it immediately. I can't even remember if it was shiny or not.

There's no danger to it, take it online if you want, put it in Pokemon Bank, migrating it to the next game is okay, as long as it's not from Gen 5 or earlier (Poke Transfer checks that). You should be fine-

Oh... wow. Sorry to hear that. The person who made that pokemon (that broke your Platinum game) probably had bad intentions instead of helpful like I usually see.

I remember I once got a level 100 Mudkip once with Tackle and Growl. It had -500,000 EXP (estimate) until the next levelup. I was worried about it, but one battle with it fixed itself.
