I believe you can get one at the Sinjoh Ruins in HG/SS at level 1, along with Palkia and Giratina, if you bring an Arceus.

In that case, check its Summary and see if it "Traveled through time from Johto". If not...

I love Wonder Trade.

I sent out a bunch of Phiones yesterday, got Rotom, Mudkip, Dratini, a Vivillion with Pokerus, and a Cloyster.

I usually do Wonder Tarade when I'm bored and have nothing else to do lol I'm just getting started at breeding for competitive pokémon and actually got some pretty good "breeding materials" from WT... But the one time time I was gobsmacked with what I got was when I got an Entei! :O Can't even remember what I traded off, but it was actually pretty cool to get one since it was the one legendary beast that I still hadn't caught and transfered to my X :)
 
Wonder trade proving to be very useful. Got a Gengar solid stats through it, trying to build a team of all Japanese pokemon (which is hard since I need them in final evo form so the name stays), but also received quite a few pokemon with great EVs that I otherwise would have forgot about even getting (My Quagsire runs ish now)

My first wonder trade last night (only just purchased the game yesterday) ... I sent a Bidoof. Received a Karrablast in return. I immediately felt terrible ... not because Karrablast is any good but ... Bidoof, y'know?

It's okay, you just started so you get a break. Wondertrade can get addicting once you start getting good stuff, so have fun!

I just started wonder-trading my leftovers from iv breeding, and it's really a neat concept. I may try to fill my pokedex with wonder-trades, how long do you think that will take? ;)
 
I had like 3 boxes full of leftover Electrike. I named them all Bidoof and wonder traded them.
 
I used to do it to have those points to trade on pokemon global link for rare candies. Made like 200k points so no need to do more since also have all 718 pokemon. Still is very nice since many people give the rest of the eggs that they won't be using, so many times we get things with breed moves and 5 iv.

Last two days Wonder Trading I've been getting A LOT of Protean Froakies (kept a Jap one for me) and a lot of Pokerus infected Charmanders. Must have been flooded at one point and now making its rounds

They just keep coming.. Its a charmander and froakie apocalypse in wonder trade really..I chose Fennekin and Squirtle because Froakie and Charmander is WAY too overused..
 
Ok awhile ago I was going to do a wonder trade team run for x and I got mostly ok pokemon but right in the middle I got a shiny tyrouge and almost flipped my coffee table the only problem is that it has a really really in appropriate name and name I am too ashamed to use it in online battles.

I was passing out dream ball Poochyenas earlier while I work on IV breeding a shiny Mightyena and got yet another Japanese Flabebe... only this one caught my eye so when I went to release it I checked the stats page and sure enough... someone had passed on a blue shiny Flebebe... The person that traded it too me wasn't Japanese so I guess they just thought it was another regular Flabebe.... Thats 2 shinies off the WT in 2 days... I got a shiny grumpig for an IV bred swinub the day before.

Though the new craze seems to be flooding WT with pidgeys...

I had a strange encounter in WT a couple months ago. It probably isn't much, but I thought it was bizarre and slightly unsettling.

So I was trading back some WT Pokemon I didn't want back into WT. I don't remember what I was trading, but at some point I was linked with someone who had a message in all caps that read, "I'm so sorry". When the trade started I got a Flabebe in exchange for whatever it is I put back in WT. He had named it SORRY, and I didn't bother looking at anything else but the nickname. At first, I thought it was random and I could be overreacting, but something like that doesn't really happen in WT.

It has since then been part of the plot for a Creepypasta I'll eventually write.

Too old for your rubbish..
I've had some fairly decent Pokemon through Wonder Trade, but my favourite thus far, which now rarely leaves my team, has to be a Pokérus-cured, Adamant natured Talonflame at level 100. Maxed out attack and speed, seems quite the force to be reckoned with..

I felt quite guilty at the time, since all they ended up with was my Ultra-Balled Jolly Pancham that I'd randomly captured about 45 seconds beforehand, but that soon passed and now I try and put better things in for everyone! If I do throw in a disappointing Pokemon, then it's usually holding something as a peace offering lol..

On Valentine's Day, I got a Chansey named Venus with perfect IVs and a bold nature with one egg move. I have gone on to train it properly and I really appreciate whoever sent it out.

It's just Absol...
Speaking of Pokémon nicknamed 'Sorry'... I received Dunsparce with that name. lol

Also, Miltank has 'YOUR MOM' nickname and Burn Heal. Yeah. I just sent her back to WT.
