Talk:Wonder Trade

Is Wonder Trade completly random?

I suspect is not for the reason I receive rare Pokemons if I send rare Pokemons. Maybe is just a coincidence. I believe there is some sort of rareness index. Can anyone disprove that? It just a coincidence?

Maybe there is some official source that answer that? - unsigned comment from Felknight (talk • contribs)

I don't think so. Bulbapedia on Twitter has Wonder Traded hundreds of Pokemon such as Bulbasaur and got incredibly common Pokemon. If there was some sort of rareness index, then Bulbapedia who more often get rare Pokemon than common ones. Furthermore, there wouldn't really be any need for one now. However, The Pokemon Company may potentially implement something like this if it so happens that people are breaking Wonder Trade by trading rare Pokemon. I may even be completely wrong. However, there is no source I know of that says anything about the received Pokemon being based on the sent Pokemon, and trying to test if there is some sort of rareness index would be rather difficult and time consuming (hundreds of trades would have to be made, lots of breeding). --NOBODY (talk) 01:19, 5 November 2013 (UTC)

XY <-> ORAS?

Do Wonder Trades go between XY and ORAS? Or does trading in X only look at X and Y Wonder Traders, etc? --Aescula (talk) 03:14, 8 December 2014 (UTC)

This answer in in the page itself :) Pokémon with moves or items introduced in Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire cannot be Wonder Traded to a player in Pokémon X and Y. A player trading a Pokémon with items or moves from Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire will never be matched with a player in Pokémon X and Y. Pokémon that exist in Pokémon X and Y and only have moves and items that exist in those games can be Wonder Traded from Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire to Pokémon X and Y. --Bomyne (talk) 12:46, 19 August 2015 (UTC)
