This thread is for....
1) Simple Item Trades 2) Simple Pokemon Trades 3) Setting up IV Battles 4) Simple Questions you might have about 5) Evolution Requests, such as "Hey can someone trade with me so I can evolve my Kadabra?"
DO NOT ask for AR Codes, discuss whether or not a Pokemon will be "legit", etc. You will be warned.

Look here first for vocabulary questions or for hatch locations!

Terms: Spitback = A Pokemon that has either the wrong nature but great IVs or a beneficial nature and good looking IVs but in the wrong area. Or, the Pokemon could have a beneficial nature and great IVs, but the user already has a better version of the Pokemon. Spitbacks can also be caused by forgetting to put on a needed Egg move on a Pokemon and, as such, causing the user to rebreed a Pokemon, creating the old Pokemon to become a spitback. Most of the time, these spitbacks make great breeding fodder.
"I have a Adamant 31/10/31/31/31/31 Salamence spitback because the IVs are really awesome, but its main stat, Attack, is missing out."
"My Impish 31/30/31/7/31/30 Skarmory has pretty awesome IVs, but I forgot to put on Whirlwind and Brave Bird, so it's a spitback. I plan to rebreed for those two necessary moves."
Fodder = A Pokemon used to trade for a free Pokemon or to serve as empty space for another purpose, such as transferring a Pokemon or giving a user an item. These Pokemon can generally be whatever Pokemon you don't deem important to yourself excluding the Pokemon you can't redistribute yourself.
"Okay, catch some fodders and get on so I can give you my giveaway Rattata and Metapod."
B/C P's = Breeding/Capture Projects. This is where you breed or capture a Pokemon for a user who wants the Pokemon. Generally, User 1 would do this if User 2 has a Pokemon User 1 wants but User 2 doesn't want any Pokemon User 1 has. Otherwise, a user would do this out of respect or even out of being bored. A user will usually have a section for breeding and capture projects labeled out, but in cases that there are no such sections, don't be afraid to ask what Pokemon a user would like to have. If you're asking for a breeding or capture project for yourself, do make sure that the Pokemon is possible to obtain by all means. At the end of a breeding or capture project, usually the breeder or capturer will gain a specific amount of credits or the Pokemon he/she wanted.
"Hey, want to do the Venusaur in my Breeding Project post? Make sure it has the IVs: 31/30/31/30/31/30, Hasty nature, female gender, and the Egg move Power Whip. Doing this will whip you up eight credits for use for any Pokemon in my Trade Thread."
EV Training = This is usually a service in which you EV train a Pokemon or more for another user to gain credits or Pokemon from that user. Many Trade Threads have their own policies on how they want you to EV train their Pokemon. If you would like to learn how to EV train, Erodent wrote a guide on exactly how to do so here.
"Sorry, you got nothing. Perhaps you want to EV train my Timid Zapdos with 6 Def / 252 SpA / 252 Spe for me? Doing this will net you the Pokemon you wanted."
Pending = This is when two users agree to trade but one or both of the users can't do the trade at that exact moment so they add the trade to their pending list. When both users have time, they can then meet up and complete the trade. It is very useful to keep a pending list or some kind of record in your trade thread so you don't forget about trades that you can't complete at that time.
"Alright, let's put our trade in pending. My DS's batteries died and I left the charger at my cousin's house."
FC = This is short for "Friend Code", which is the code used to connect with someone online. You can access your Friend Code in your Pal Pad and enter other people's Friend Codes in there as well.
"Add my Diamond, 3462-7770-2264, for Seel. I'm to add 9326-2573-0196, correct?"
Whitelist = This is a list of users that have either helped or are really great friends of the user.
"User 1 has been a great pal to me and deserves to be on my whitelist. He has introduced me to the Wi-Fi forums, given me several free flawless Pokemon, and to top it off, he's my trade partner!"

If I use two Japanese Pokémon to breed in a PAL cartridge, is the method International Breeding? I always read about two Pokémon from different nations, but what if they are from the same nation in a different cart?

His Arcness If I use two Japanese Pokémon to breed in a PAL cartridge, is the method International Breeding? I always read about two Pokémon from different nations, but what if they are from the same nation in a different cart? Won't work as "international" breeding They need to come from different language games So, again no; japanese+japanese is "normal" breeding because same language They should've called it "interlingual" breeding, not "international"… You're welcome ninja

Good evening,
I know I am to formal but I will get used to be more like you people some day lol. Anyway I was wondering if anyone knows how to do the battle subway with a friend through Wifi. The simple reason for this question is that my friend and I are often bored but we kinda live far from each other since he moved to Toronto and I like in Quebec. So if you can answer my question please do and also no I am not born in Quebec I moved here from France thank you.

- - - » The End is the Beginning A few questions, where would be the best place to post for dex completion trades? And what are the rules for hosting a contest? Could I combine the two? For example, host a contest and up until the deadline, look for dex trades using the same thread. Any guidance would be appreciated ^_^ The Beginning is the End - - - »
