I've gotten a few HA pokemon and an extremespeed Dratini.

I also got a Treeko just when the pokebank came out in Japan. So I was able to breed that one and obtain all the unobs (that weren't legends)

My best was an Yveltal. I was like "why would somebody just trade away a legendary pokemon for a random pokemon?" Then I remembered that cloning is a thing.

The fact that you have to catch Xerneas/Yveltal in the game to progress means everyone playing the game has one, and makes them pretty much worthless (rarity/trading wise). I doubt it was cloned.

Anyway, I'm releasing a bunch of Pokemon to make room for eggs (Going to try and MM a shiny Vulpix) and decided I'll wonder trade away some of the more valuable Pokemon I have. You know, some fully evolved Pokemon, Pokemon you can't get in the game, ones with egg moves. Third wonder trade in I do a double take at the person's message: "Wondertrading ★s" sure enough, I trade her Clawitzer, and I get a Shiny Eevee! I stopped trading her for a moment to give her a "Nice!"

I never gave much thought to WT until today.

I was so happy to get a Tirtouga (which I thought couldn't be obtainable in X/Y, nb me) that I started breeding and trading a lot of those. Best trade by far was a Totodile.

When I was done I entered my box to release all the bad trades just to find out that a Pidgey that I got had pokerus.

Then all the frenetic happy WT trading started again. Been trading Totodiles with pokerus ever since. And all the lame pokemon that I get I just infect them with pokerus and send them back into WT.

I know it's kind of noob, but I never got pokerus before and I loved the feeling so much that I can't stop sending those trying to reach people that also never had it. lol

I had a 6IV Kyurem through wonder trade :D.
I don't want any legendary I didnt captured myself, so I traded that one away for 3 5IV'ed pokémon with HA & egg moves.
Good day
 
The best I got was a female Froakie.
My brother got a German ;004;.

i got a shiny kyurem named billy mays on wondertrade.

Hahaha that name made me laugh. That's an awesome get.

I've gotten a few decent things in amongst a plethora of Froakie, Charmander and Ghastly. I've gotten a Dragon Dance Charmander which isn't too bad, a few HA Ditto's and a Swalot with Pokerus so I'm not mad. You get a lot of rubbish but then you get a gem to make it all worth it.

Thundercats Hoo!
I wonder traded a Rufflet and got a Vullaby in return.

Otherwise, I do enjoy getting Scatterbugs, because I tested out evolving some- And they came in the different patterns. Of course, I'm currently working on getting a shiny Buneary through millions of eggs, and using what I get in return for the little Miley Cyrus's to fill my Pokedex with various Trainer IDs.

I landed a Groudon, which seriously through me through a loop. I ended up trading further with this person, and wound up getting a legit Deoxy and Jirachi. Best wonder trade ever XD
 
I got a 6IV HA Japanese Ditto from wondertrade, it was at the start of the game so I only had crap to send them. I suppose I'm trying to make up for it though, sending Freeze Dry Lapras and Grassy Terrain Bulbasaur out there.

WOW! That's some luck right there! I got a froakie with it's hidden ability, Japanese... That's basically it, though :p

well i just got my second wonder trade shiny. Unfortunetly its pidgeot. Sadly (its worse i guess) its timid. Funny part about it is its nickname. Its called BirdJesus. Not sure why someone would name it that. Haven't checked its ivs yet. If its good I could use it but would probably have to run choice specs on it or something. Or just breed with it.

Three words: Twitch Plays Pokemon

I got something similar, a Flareon named FalseProphet, and had to look up the reference.
 
Last night was my 1st night wonder trading. I got awesome stuff every time :). I would load up 6 that were extra from breeding and kept swapping out 6 for 6 I got so many keepers/ other things to breed.

I usually just get my things back... Never really got snything good before but I've given away some nice Pokemon and some had egg moves. Hoping I can get luck in future wonder trade...

While I know it's all random and luck, I believe in karma and like to believe that plays in. Try giving away a good Pokemon or two, even just a Pokemon with an Egg Move. People see others being generous like that and they try to be generous too. ;)

I've given away the fully evolved forms of the psuedo-legendaries, a couple legendaries and shinies, and some Pokemon you can't get in the game, not even the friend safari. And look at what I got a few posts up. :D

So I put this theory to the test today. Wonder traded an extra Groudon I had to see what I would get. I ended up getting a Bibarel. Congrats to whoever got my extra Groudon.
 

Emperor Empoleon

Honor of Kalos
I wonder traded a Lonely Scatterbug once, only to get another Lonely Scatterbug in return. Same gender, even. I think it was the same level too...xD

That gave me a good laugh, so I went ahead and decided to train it as my own. Turned out getting one of my favorite Vivillon (Monsoon), and I've had a few good matches with him too.
