Pok-mon Y Nuzlocke Challenge - Ep. 14: Wonder Trade Roulette

video description

Rating: 4.0; Vote: 1
A majority of this episode is made up of two incredibly tense battles, with an experimental transition in-between. We're getting close now, gang! RULES: 1) I can only catch the first Pokemon I encounter in each area. This counts gift and traded Pokemon. 1a) If that first encounter is a Pokemon I've already caught, I can keep searching until my first encounter with a new Pokemon. 2) If a Pokemon faints, I must deposit it in the PC and release it as soon as possible. No exceptions! 3) No healing items (Potions, Antidotes, Lemonade, etc) can be used in battle. Held items and healing moves are still permitted. 4) I have to play the game in Set mode. 5) After each gym completion, I have to Wonder Trade a member of my winning team. The duplicate clause also applies here

Thing is, usually when people trade lvl 1 mons from a decent line (NOT ZUBAT, like that Ralts, they're actually being nice. they were breeding for a super competitive Ralts with awesome stats, kept the pick of the litter for themselves, and then wonder traded off all the other ones like 'hey! this is a really good baby Ralts! go on and level it and you'll have a lot of fun with it! ' Like Petunia, that was probably one that was custom bred to have amazing sp atk. Sure, they're level 1, but they turn out to be powerhouses if you do level 'em.
Or like Flapteryx there, that comes a fossil, not easy to come by, so they were helping people fill their pokedexes by breeding a lot of extra babies and just sending them out into the world.
TJ the Zubat was just an insult though.

I wonder traded a ton of stuff while breeding for IVs and over time got a bunch of stuff with 4-5 max IVs, good natures and/or hidden abilities. One was a female 5 IV charmander which was really useful since female charmanders are really rare, as well as a hidden ability dragonite with a few maxed IVs which saves me from having to find a hidden ability dratini myself if I want a good dragonite at some point. I've never gotten a shiny though. I've traded several 4 (or 5, but with Sp Atk maxed instead of something else) max IV Jolly natured sneasels with two useful egg moves (Icicle Crash and Pursuit) out into the world, so I hope those were useful to people, even if they're not perfect.

getting good stuff on Wonder Trade is really on specific days, timing your trades with streamers. and you have to do A LOT of trades. I've gotten a ton of legendaries and shinies from WT, but I've done literally thousands of trades. Trading off a whole box might get me two Pokemon worth keeping, if I'm lucky.
That being said I have a hunch that Petunia was a reject from someone trying to shiny/IV breed and therefore might have 3 or 4 perfect IVs

I've gotten shinies through wonder trade before, but for every shiny there are five hundred level one caterpies and pidgeys and trash. But that one amazing shiny is all worth it. When I was wonder trading on Halloween night, I got a shiny Gourgeist with a Halloween-themed moveset. It was so awesome that I laughed and put it right back in wonder trade to make someone else's night.

I really don't know what Griffin was expecting from the Wonder Trade here. People keep handing him wonderful pokemon and he gets all indignant that he might have to actually train them. He knows they don't get a memo that he's 7 badges deep into the campaign and has a pathological aversion to spending any time building these guys up before he sends them into the fire, right?
reply

I know this series is old but god damn. Griffin is having the worst luck with wonder trade. I-m replaying x and just for kicks I wonder traded like 16 times, I got three various regions starters, a shiny with a master ball, and a legendary, plus some other less interesting pokemon but they-re still cool. Like man.
reply

I just started my first Nuzlocke recently after watching this series. about 6 badges in to omega ruby at this point. My Gyarados, which I raised from a lvl 15 magikarp to lvl 40 just got one hit KOd from a Pokemon 5 levels lower and i still don't know how it happened. I'm sad: (
reply

Meanwhile i was watching this series i started my own little nuzlocke on ultra moon of course i caught a wingull then i made the decision to name it Sea Breeze to pay respects to your wonderful wingull you had that died than came back evolved then had to leave again
reply

I'm not lying or kidding, but I once got a level one hundred shiny Xerneas in Pokemon Moon through Wonder Trade! I'm not good enough to tame it yet though, so I use it as a sheild while I heal my other Pokemon lol
reply

-I'm gonna just keep wonder trading this. thing off, and I'm gonna see how long it's gonna take me to get something; I wanna see if it's even possible to get something that's not trash. -
Petunia: -B-but. -

reply

Me, a year later -YOU COMPLETE AND UTTER FOOL YOU RELEASED A FOSSIL POKEMON, THAT WAS SO GOOD, I'M SO FURIOUS. ALSO USE NIGHT SLASH AGAINST PSYCHIC POKEMON GODDAMMIT-
This series is very good but VERY stressful

reply

i know it's been 6 years since this was posted but griffin really put petunia in the PC and added davidspumkns to his party so he'd have an easy option to wonder trade didn't he. HOW'D THAT WORK OUT.
reply

I've gotten some good pokemon off of wonder trade tho like real nice but it's mostly a 1% chance I've gotten some shinies that were most defo hacked but shh, and some legionaries
reply

-i've been playing pokemon for 20 years- i would stop admitting to that if i were you. .you are kinda really bad at this. you are good at making enjoyable playthroughs though!
reply

I've gotten legendaries and shiny pokemon from wonder trade before, it's like gambling. When I knew I was done with my game I wonder traded all of my good pokemon for fun lol
reply

Petunia would have died. She's Grass/Poison. Slowking knows psychic. if you swapped her in she'd have to get her giga drain first and hard to avoid the psychic.
reply

The point has alwayas been that wonder trade is disappointing LOL What planet do you live on where people generally trade rares on wondertrade lol
reply

Pretty sure Wonder Trade is mostly used by people who spam breeding looking for shinies, and then send tons of baby Pokemon out into the world.
reply

Ykno what's rlly funny tho since u traded a pumpkaboo it'll evolve after trading so u got crap while the other person got a good pumpkin friend
reply

FYI, lv. 1's in Wonder Trade are almost all breeding rejects-- like that Archen that had 3 perfect IVs! ;_; Makes me cry seeing it released.
reply

I wonder traded a pikipek in Pokemon Sun and got a level 100 shiny ditto in return and I never felt like a bigger piece of trash in my life
reply

Mate, if I had a pokemon game, I-d be a breeder sending people first form sudo legendary-s because I would feel bad sending people trash.
reply

Night Slash's 70 power is better than STAB Shadow Sneak, which is 60 power. You coulda been dealing way more damage to that Slowking!
reply

Griffin completely ignoring night slash in two situations where it would-ve completely guaranteed a win kills me inside.
reply

You got both your amazing Roserade and your amazing butt-bouncer off of the Wonder Trade system. :P Can't be all that bad.
reply

I once got a level 100 shiny swampert on wonder trade. the first time i bred him i got a shiny mudkip. you never know.
reply

Watching that jolly nature Archen be released given style was one of the worst things I've ever seen. BIG RIP.
reply

Once I got a level 100 shiny Rayquaza from Wonder Trade. For a Pidgey. It was the BEEEEEEST DAAAAAAAY EEEEEVEEEEER!
reply

4: 19 were in the brier batch now fulks and i know how to spell folks im saying that cause thats how he said it
reply

I'm gonna start breeding, speed-leveling, and wondertrading rare pokemon to solve this WT landfill problem
