Wait, can you actually get doggos from gts and then dissolve them to get extra cells?

>>31076521
yes
50% is faster though

what site
>>
>>31076545
Huh... i have like 75 cells, i guess i could get a zydog through gts and be done with it instead of wasting an entire day going through all of the islands.
>>
>>31076437
>>31076468
Yep, Beldum has 10% encounter, but it's hard to catch as it's killing itself with Take Down. People are lazy and it's easier to exchange 10 Zygarde cells for it.

As you can see first Metang is caught in Ultra Ball next are in repeat balls - it's much easier.

It's pretty cool as in the same place where Beldum is you can find Dittos witch are good GTS trades too (get female salandit fo one )

55KB, 250x250px
I haven't tried this with legendaries, but I've been using relicanth as GTS currency for all of the annoying evolutions (froslass/milotic/scizor/slowking/sylveon)

I can't believe people are so lazy they're willing to trade those mons for relicanth. Yeah, he's hard to catch, but once you catch one you've got him. I've been breeding the shit out of him and just trading away. I'm gonna finish off the regular mons before I attempt the legendaries
>>
>>31076798
Even faster, 30 minutes (just look at the times of top image)
>>
>>31076580
Couldn't you just breed? Outsider ditto + oval charm + flame hody makes them pop out pretty fast all things considered.

Plus then you could potentially give them adamant nature to sweeten the deal and be more likely to trade.

And beldum evolve at level 20, so even on slow exp path that's like 2-3 fights on battle tree route.

Teach them some TMS and they'll be flying off the shelves.
>>
>>31076894
Would Beldum work, or should we take the time to level them up to Metang?
>>
Does trading Bewear work? I have a few from grinding at Poni Gauntlet.
>>
>>31076773
You're thinking of tentaquil. Tentaquil is blue and yellow. Cyndaquil is off-white, indigo, and red and yellow when its fire is on.
>>
>>31076965
>Yes, at least to Metang. I was trying with Bagon for 24 hours and didn't get any trade. Metangs were traded in around 1-3 hours.

I mean Beldum not Bagon sorry. Yes definitely evolve this little bastard,
>>
>>31076964
Yes, I could. I forgot that some gender-less mons can breed with Ditto ;__;

But I was looking for some dittos on the same path so it wasn't waste of time, and while searching grass newly caught Beldums were evolving instantly.

But your way would be much faster for sure.

If they're at all like me, though, they don't really want to spend time looking for it. I'm pretty sure the easiest way to fill your dex is to do trading chains: trade your item evolutions for other item evolutions or rares, and you can fill your dex in one afternoon.

Gotta say, I did the same for Relicanth, although it was for another monostage mon I think, maybe a version exclusive like Drampa or Turtonator.
>>
currently breeding heavy ball magnemites, just ask for a legend and wait some minutes.

Then, if you got balltism, you can search the pokes you want with a specific ball, and trade those legends away.
>>
>>31076193
in gen 6 i would put pokebank-exclusive mons up and ask for Inkay, and keep doing it until it'd give me an Inkay with a Japanese name. then i would rare candy it up to Level 13, give it an Aspear Berry from the guy who gives you one berry a day, and put it up on the GTS pretending it was the happy hour event inkay. people would give you literally anything for these random shitmon inkays.
>>
>>31076220
I don't think pheremosa counts as a shitmon, you can't mass produce them. The easiest way to get anything is to just breed and trade island scan mons, I have recieved 4 cosmogs just off of trading snivy's

Yes, u can get probably every legendary (maybe not Necrozma) for Calesteela.

I've done this as I've seen that people most likely exchange Lunala for Cosmog (it's why there is Lunala exchange before)

Do people still like Dhelmise?

>>31076908
At the start of SM, I could trade Oranguru/Passimians for ultrabeasts not named Guzzlord. If they were version exclusive ones, I could trade for Guzzlords and then Guzzlords for Guardians/Nebbys.

Thanks to an idea I show from Reddit, I've been catching Riolu and running around in circles for hours to raise their friendship levels. Once their levels are high enough, I evolved them into Lucario and put them on the GTS. I've managed to get the opposite box legendary (Lunala), some UB's and a Cosmog.
What I've found is that if you don't like the nature and IV spread of a UB/legendary, all you have to do is put it on the GTS and request for a different UB/legendary. Then trade that for the Pokémon you originally wanted. Rinse and repeat until you a decent nature and IV's.

All for random shit I had sitting in my PC.
>>
>>31076908
The fact that I can regularly put up Castform and get Nihilego in return just shows you how awful the SOS system is.

Any advice on this?

Trade power GTS (SM putting these up for trades)
>S-tier (Anything will be given for these)
Any trade item evo (e.g. Porygon-Z, Kingdra, etc.)
Most rare fishing pokemon (e.g. Relicanth, Dhelmise, Bruxish, etc.)
Most SOS only pokemon (e.g. Goomy, Castform, etc.)
Celesteela
Legendaries and unbreedables in general
FUCKING PIKACHU
>A-tier (can get most UBs minus the one offs, can get some S grade trade materials)
Many 5% grass encounters beyond Melemele (e.g. Oranguru, Passimian, Comfey, etc.)
Friendship evos not catchable in the wild or very rarely (e.g. Crobat, Lucario, etc.)
Certain UBs (Kartana, Pheromosa, sometimes Buzzwole)
Pokemon that require significant leveling to evolve (e.g. Final starter evos, Braviary, Mandibuzz, etc.)
>B-tier (can get some decent pokemon)
Easy to evolve but not catchable in the wild final evos (anything catchable at a higher level than they evolve for the most part)
Late game pokemon (e.g. some Poni-only pokemon)
Fan favorites (e.g. Riolu, Vulpix, etc.)
Ditto
Apricorn ball pokemon
>C-tier (probably will sit for a long time or not get traded at all)
most early game pokemon that are easy to get
Abra
>>
>>31078858
Add weavile in elder god tier
>>
>>31078858
Oh and I forgot to add that B-tier can sometimes blend into A-tier (e.g. Beast ball beldum, most pretty pokemon in Love balls, etc.)

And also Island scan pokemon into A-tier.
>>
>>31078732
Oooh nooo man, this can't be true ?!?!
>>
>>31078879
Yeah forgot it only needed to hold it and level up, so lumped it in with Trade item evos. I'll change it to "rare item evos" next time.
>>
>>31078200
Wanna trade ? :')
>>
Think I'll get what I want for Bagons with Beast Balls? They have Dragon Dance and 5 IV (although they are breedjects so they aren't in the right stats) on em so they'll be in for a surprise
>>
>>31076908

Don't worry, its trade value will drop once bank support hits.
>>
Can you check a pokemon's ability on the GTS before taking the trade? I have a bunch of breedject Rough Skin Gibles for trades with 3-5 IVs.

If not, can you see the Pokemon's nickname on the GTS? Was thinking of writing Rough Skin / さめはだ as the nickname so anyone knows it's got Rough Skin so they can just breed it to whatever they want.
>>
>>31077493

You know syncronize works on the machine right?
>>
>>31079525

Would putting up a Pheromosa or Swole Bug for a Zygarde work?
>>
>>31079810

Look at the moves and ability. He's taken all the hard work out of breeding for egg moves and chaining for the HA and giving it to you ready to breed.
>>
>>31079810
Yeah but the Hidden Ability was only obtainable from Friend Safaris, and that's what everyone was looking for at the time. Plus they also got the best egg moves for it.
>>
>>31079811
I mean that's some pretty balltism (I agree it matches nicely) but you'd add a lot of value by just putting one in a beast ball or the like.
>>31079839
>>31079876
Yeah but you can't see that on the GTS, IIRC in gen 6 you could see even less than 7. The movesets and HA are just a bonus, there is no way to tell if they have that when trading for it online, apart from the (usually lying) descriptions. These people are either incredibly gullible or really like Corphish.
>>
>>31079839
>>31079876
I mean it would be scummy, but I could easily just breed a shit corphish and put "HAeggmoves6IV" in the description. These people are just lucky (and very trusting) you didn't pull what 95% of the GTS does.
>>
>>31079891

Guess I"ll hope for the best

>>31079891

Maybe the guy had a reputation of being the Cool Corphish dude and everyone trusted him on the GTS.

You'll probably get it anyway, Gibles are a pain in the ass to get and people trade good shit for less.
>>
>>31079891
To be fair, Corphish is really likeable.
>>
>>31079953
I keep getting 5iv Gible breedjects at around 9pm EST, if you feel like dumping a box of your own breedjects.
>>
>>31079949
I don't see how that would work, you trade for one corphish and probably don't need another. And near-anonymous trading doesn't have much in the category of word of mouth.
>>31079954
This is true, my shiny corphish is my bro
>>
>>31079968
Nah, I don't have any breedjects as of yet since I'm trying to complete my dex. What are you trying to get for them anyway? Just dex filler?

I also collected a bunch of Zygarde in XY (they were going for next to nothing on the GTS, I could go on and find some asking for Chespin or some shit). Probably won't dissolve them though, since that's the only way to have them in Pokeballs other than the standard one.

I meant that pikachus are breedable so you can fill up a box or so with pikachus within an hour.

I'm new to Sun&Moon, why is Pikachu so valuable? It's available on the first route, you can get it in a few minutes.
>>
>>31082189
If it's equal in value why would you use it as a lesser currency? They're both trade fodder but even if it's less difficult to get than Weavile in game, they're worth the same. Unless you want the Weavile for yourself there is no higher trade value so they are pretty much equal.
>>31082196
Of course, but you don't get much higher than Pikachu and Weavile in the current GTS market, so what reason would you have to value one over the other unless you wanted to keep that Weavile for yourself? Also you can breed a box of Pichu, you have to futz around with friendship (which not everyone gets, I see people confuse it with affection a lot) to get Pikachu.
>>
>>31082293
Nah, it's a bit more complicated than that. In order to catch Pikachu, first you need to run into a Pichu. Pichus are only in two fields of grass (the one near Iki town) at a rate of 5%. Once you run into a Pichu, you need to make it call for a Pikachu. Then catch the Pikachu.

why do i have to leave GTS in order to see if my shit's been traded or not

>it needs friendship to evolve, a pain in the ass if you don't know how to properly exploit it
>people confuse friendship with affection (hearts in refresh) and get frustrated when it won't evolve
>Needed for a full Z-crystal collection (both the Pikanium Z and Aloraichium Z)
>can learn Volt Tackle without breeding now
>Pichu is a 5% encounter rate in the wild and will take a fair bit of effort to SOS for a Pikachu
>>
>>31082376
Pichu can also be found in Hau Oli grass.

>tfw I have a box of lure ball gibles

>>31081189
This. I have a box of Moon Ball Mimikyu breedjects and I'm on my 8th Nihilego.

I'm going to build a whole army of Lilliefishes.
>>
>>31082324
>If it's equal in value why would you use it as a lesser currency?

Because I'm drowning in them? It's basically worthless to me.
>>
>>31082478
Did you want to keep the Weavile then? Since it's identical to Pikachu in value there is no difference in value even if you have more of them. You could trade a Weavile or Pikachu for a Porygon2, or a Cosmog, it makes no difference unless you personally want the Weavile. Or are you meaning that he shouldn't have traded the Weavile at all since you can mess around with friendship on a Pichu for easy fodder?

Regardless, they are equal value currency as of the current market, no matter the difficulty of obtaining one.
>>
>>31076193
Sneasals. They trade in 5 minutes. Ive bearly filled my entire pokedex off of breedjects. I got solgaleo for weavile as well

Synchronize also works if you have a fainted mon of the desired nature in the first slot and your synchronizer of any nature in the second, but I don't know if that way it will also work on the machine. It should be worth a try?
>>
>>31082628
but anon, making a thread complaining about things I have influence over is fun!
>>
>>31082478
But why does that make trading away his weavile a bad decision? If he had a spare he wanted to trade away and such, he probably didn't have the same "drowning in Pikachu" situation you do and was planning to get rid of it anyway.
>>

Yes, these are the people you must exploit.

That's why Static exists niggas. Then just have any electric pokemon that can learn False Swipe, like Tapu Koko.

You can get just about anything with Goomy. Shit I left one in the GTS overnight and got the Phera I requested.

Easiest dex completion ever
>>
>>31082882
cool paper bro
I got 4 by breeding Oranguru
Same for Pheromosa and Buzzwole
>>
>>31082969
that's what i meant, i get them almost right away
>>
>>31083001
Oh that's because you get 4 and competitively they're outshined by most other UBs, except Guzzlord.
>>
>>31083117
Eh, competitively speaking it probably ranks third behind Pheromosa and Celesteela. Maybe behind Xurkitree but I think that one's a little tough to say either way. Better than Buzzwole (sorry swolebros) Nihilego and Guzzlord for sure.
>>
>>31083183
Eh, Nihilego is actually pretty good, and is used much, much more than Kartana. Xurkitree I haven't used so I can't say much there, and Buzzwole is too slow for his own good, although he hits well. Kartana is rather eh, especially in official formats, since all the memes about
>a fucking ember
are unfortunately very true. Guzzlord is always shit though.
>>
>>31076656
I've tried to get rid of my gabites for a long time, I can trade you one of you want just tell me what you're putting up for it
>>
>>31082203

Except you can't look at a Pokemon's moves on the GTS. There's no way to know what it has. Just the fact that it's in a Beast Ball is enough, honestly.
>>
>>31083183
>Nihilego
Nihilego is a prime competitve pokemon, what are you talking about?
>>
does anyone have a spare boldore?
>>
>>31082695
What do Sticky Hold and Suction Cups influence again? I forget. Something with fishing for ne of them...?
>>
>>31083827
They "vastly increase chance of reeling in a fish," meaning that 99% of the time, casting your rod will produce a pokemon or item rather than a "nothing is biting" prompt.
>>
>>31083827

From Pokémon Emerald onwards, if a Pokémon with Sticky Hold is in the first place in the party, bites will occur more often while fishing. Suction Cups has the same effect.
>>
>>31083918
>>31083930
Which doesn't do that much now considering how fishing works in SM.
>>
>>31084036
I was just listing every Pokemon-encounter related ability outside of stuff like Illuminate. Might help if you're getting frustrated because of 10 empty line casts on each ripple.

Can you even create Doggos after you picked up more than 50 cells?
>>
>>31084532
not really.
>stuff its face full of EV-reducing berries
>level up once
>>
>>31084552
Yes. But you'll be forced to make a 50% first if you have enough for it, then you can make the 10%s. Also if you have 100 or more cells you'll be forced to make a Power Construct snek and you can't break down that one.
>>
>>31084552
Yeah. You can swap between forms if it has Power Construct.
Or make a 50, then make a 10 with the leftovers.
>>
>>31076656
if you wonder trade for 15 minutes you'll get at least 3 gibles, at least one in beast balls.

It's like a statistic.
>>
>>31084532

>throw it a rainbow

More proof that people mistake Affection with Friendship everywhere you go.
>>
>>31084826
Sylveon evolves via affection, numbnuts.
Umb&Esp are friendship.

And here I am, trying, and failing, to get shit with Beat Ball Beldum like a pleb.

This is all vaguely reminding me of the pre-Bank XY GTS jewery and legendary trade chains. Fun times.

Beast ball beldum is common af now, people bred the living shit out of them when all the

memes were around and now they're every other Beldum on the GTS.

Trade chains are still fun but are somewhat impractical if you actually want the Pokemon and aren't just dexing it and trading away.

What are people giving up their Pheromosas for? Is Kartana not a fair trade?
>>
>>31086997
No. Kartana might eventually do it but Pheromosa is much more useful than it for the most part.

I put up an Oranguru however, and I got more roaches than a seedy hotel.
>>
Is Torkoal good for trade?
>>
>>31087283
Meh. B-tier.

It's a very common encounter in two locations, the only scarcity or desirability comes from it only being available during the day so some kids won't be able to get it during bedtime or something.

How to easily get anything you want -

1. Catch a ditto
2. Nickname it 6 IVs
3. Put it up on GTS asking for literally anything

Just look for someone else asking for a Xurkitree for some random pokemon. Aside from the gender(obviously not relevant for an UB) and level range, they have no say in the matter.

I have my go to trade that I have been listing non-stop and getting Koko and Celesteela for, traded a bunch of them off for Zygardes to complete an adamant and jolly one so far. Metang is a good one for trades, but there are far easier ones that take next to zero effort that people have been eager to trade for.
