    Wonder Trade Weekly #20


    Wonder Trade Weekly is back again! Returned for another round, our recurring segment in which we work together throughout the week to send out quality Pokémon nicknamed with a special URL out to the world through Wonder Trade, to lead those Pokémon's recipients to the lovely Lake Valor.​

    This is how we do it:

    - Breed a bunch of impressive Pokémon.
    - Nickname them all "tradepkm.net", which is a redirect URL to Lake Valor's homepage.
    - Send them out en-masse on Generation 7 Wonder Trade, whole boxes every week.

    It's as easy as that! Now, when I say "impressive Pokémon", I'm talking about Pokémon with great IVs, or with egg moves, or with preferable natures; all that good stuff. If you're unsure what any of that means, just ask me, Negative Zero, and I'll be glad to clarify. Now let's be generous to the Pokémon Trainers of the world: Wonder Trade sees enough unloved Pikipek as it is, so we should give away something nice.

    Rules

    - All Pokémon must be nicknamed "tradepkm.net" (so people are redirected back to LV when they try that url).
    - For this to count, you must post complete boxes. You may send these out anytime during the week, but only full boxes earn points.
    - Your must take pictures of your entire box as proof before and after Wonder Trading or you will not be eligible for prizes.
    - To get prizes for getting someone to join through our WT, please edit your post here with a link to their profile.

    Prizes

    - For every full box you trade away, you'll earn a nice 12 PokéPoints for yourself.
    - For every member who joins Lake Valor during that week and mentions getting a tradepkm.net Pokémon leading them here, every weekly participant will get an additional 6 PokéPoints on top of those first 12.
    - If the Pokémon that brought a new member here has your OT, you'll get another-another 12 PokéPoints.
    - This means that if you send out just one box of 30 Pokémon and bring a member here, you'll get 30 PokéPoints and a new friend. Is that great or what!
    - Once you send out a total of 10 boxes, you become eligible for the Wonder Trade Operative medal on your profile page. This is 10 boxes total, not 10 boxes in one week; so please pace yourself!

    Additional Information

    - The thread will close Sunday midnight and a new one will go up the following Monday morning (GMT).
    - If you're unsure of how to breed impressive Pokémon, or if you think it's too hard, send me a PM or find me in Discord. It may seem like a time consuming process but surprisingly, it is not. If you're a first timer, I'll even help you set up with a neat little breedable Pokémon for free.
    - Please try to make your photos clear. You don't need to go all-out with an enormous 4160x3120 pixel image, but it's important to be able to read things like your OT in these screenshots. Please refer back to just about any previous week's event if you're looking for clarity on what makes a good picture for this purpose

    All right, that should cover it. Now let's get busy and spread the word!

    I was originally going to send out a box of 5-IV Own Tempo Rockruff, only to find out that I couldn't actually send them out through Wonder Trade (on a related note, I may be hosting a giveaway soon). So instead I sent out a box of Noibat, each with 4-5 perfect IVs, including one who's IV chart looks like a bowtie.

    In return, I got mostly just like normal. I did get a shiny Absol, though. Which combined with the shiny Noibat I got while breeding makes this the first time that I've ever got two shinies in one day. Also, only one Magikarp this time.

    I've got a bunch of boxes ready, and I'm going to try to have at least two of these outbound today. Labeled by the fun box names I gave them, all of these have 4-5 perfect IVs.

    F is 20 Larvitar, mostly adamant, with no egg moves; and 10 Clauncher of varying natures and with no egg moves (but honestly, none of its egg moves are that useful to it)

    G is 30 Froakie, all are Timid, Torrent, and know the egg moves Bestow and Toxic Spikes

    H is12 Absol, adamant with two egg moves (Pursuit and Play Rough), plus 18 Porygon, all timid.

    I is 17 Mimikyu, with all four accessible egg moves and all jolly; plus 13 Froakie, some HA, some egg moves, some timid (a lot of variety there, but all are good).

    J is 30 Alolan Vulpix (I specify Alolan because of a very thinly-veiled surprise to come in a few weeks). All with 4 egg moves (Hypnosis, Moonblast, Freeze-Dry, and Encore), 17 are Hidden Ability Snow Warning.

    K is 29 Larvitar, all adamant and knowing Dragon Dance and Pursuit. Plus one loose Phione to round out the box to 30.

    Before and after pictures will come later because my phone has a hard time transferring pictures while being used as a wifi hotspot.

    EDIT: 3 boxes sent out: F, G, H from above. All of these were from OT Keeta by the way, and I'd love to meet you if you were led here by one of these!
