Best In-Game Trade in Every Pokemon Game

[@linhardtvonhevring9752]

Fun fact: in Black 2 and White 2, there’s a Hiker around Skyla’s Gym that will offer you his Gigalith for your Emolga. Since there’s a Boldore-for-Emolga trade in the first games, the popular theory is that this Hiker is giving you the Boldore you traded him in the base game, now evolved.

You should have mentioned Ghosuke the Haunter from Cerulean City in Pokemon Ao (Japanese Blue), you trade a Machoke in exchange for a Haunter that immediately evolves into Gengar. You could also trade Kadabra for Saburo the Graveler on Cinnabar Island in that game. Because of Jynx being found in the wild the man who traded it gives the Haunter Trade in Japanese Blue. The guy who gives you the underleveled Electrode in Red & Green does the trade to give you Graveler in Blue. The only of the 4 Gen 1 Trade Evos who wasn't offered by in game trade was Kadabra.

I was recently doing an X nuzlocke, and my Frogadier had just died. I had nothing else strong against rock outside of my newly caught luvdisc. Then I talked to the Steelix trade trainer. It saved my run then, and he’s still alive and on my team 4 gyms later.

grant sucks, I’m doing a sort of thing (in Pokémon X) where I pick what 6 Pokémon I want before I start and I’m not aloud to catch anything else till I beat the game, I’m stuck on the rock gym with five team members which I didn’t realize until too late, were all weak to grants Pokémon except for my under leveled bagon Team: Flicker the braixen Neon the pikachu Spore the ivysaur Soda Pop the bagon And Glimmer the amaura The last team member I’m getting is going to be a Lapras, I’m going to use the gift lapras to catch my own lapras so I can nickname it but I can’t get lapras till after the third gym so I’m stuck grinding for now

[@skynet0912]

All this looking back made me think: What would happen to each game, and how you played it, if you either took the mechanics available in modern games and made them possible in the early game, or used the severly restricted mechanics of gen 1 in later games. If modern games had no Physical/Special split (special would be the average of a pokemons special attack and special defense in this experiment), no held items, no abilities, the 1/256 glitch, the old typing matchups, typing decided if a move was special or physical and so on... If we mixed all this together and went through let's say Sun and Moon, what would your prefered team look like? Keep in mind, ONLY mechanics that were in gen 1 can be used to decide your team!

[@deathxanamon7211]

So no dark, steel, or fairy type, Bugs are weak and psychic is immune to ghost? These need specifying to help me pick a team.

That freaking Haunter-Medicham trade is so infamous. I never felt so disappointed/heartbroken/angry/trolled in a Pokémon game before or since. Gengar was always one of my favorite Pokémon, too, because I used to play Silver countless times since the save file would get deleted and I would always use a Gengar or a Haunter in my team in every single playthrough. In many ways, Gastly was my starter, not Chikorita/Cyndaquil/Totodile. Screw you straight to hell, Mindy...

[@JCDragon2819]

I've always wondered this: If you're playing Brilliant Diamond or Shining Pearl and you are using Team Sky, then wouldn't Mindy's Haunter not evolving actually be a good thing? Gengar no longer has Levitate, so I'd assume it's no longer eligible for use on Team Sky.

I kind of like that 5 generations after the infamous Gaspar trade, Gamefreak rectified this insult to players by offering an in-game trade in Scarlet and Violet where you offer up a Pincurchin for a Haunter that WILL evolve into a Gengar when traded. You perform the trade in Levincia beside the battle court, although fair warning, the Haunter will have a Brave Nature, which is plus attack and minus speed, which is terrible for Gengar, so hopefully you have a nature mint to change it to modest or another beneficial nature.

[@robertlupa8273]

Fun fact: if the comments I've read are correct, Mindy's Haunter wouldn't have evolved even if it wasn't holding an Everstone. They just didn't program in-game trades to count for trade evolutions.

You get a 400 BST pokémon at the second-to-last gym, when you could've gotten said Haunter after like, gym 2 or whenever you can access the tower or the old chateau. If the trade wasn't so extremely later compared to where you can just deadass get the pokémon yourself, I'd say yes it's even worth it without the evo, but like this, it probably joins your party at a point your average BST total outdoes it by a good 100.
