The Global Trade Station can be accessed by hovering over the Town tab located at the top every page.

On the Global Trade Station page, you are able choose between three options:

  • Public Trades - Every trainer can see and offer on these trade.
  • Private Trades - Those trades are only visible to users who you select during the setup process. You can also select groups of people, like everyone on your friendlist.
  • Gift - You must specify a recipient who receives all selected items without sending anything in return. In case the recipient declines the gift, the items are transferred back to your account. Pokémon gifts are not possible.
Choose which type of trade you would like to set up.

Since the new GTS update from April 1st 2017, you are able to set up more than one Pokemon and also make item only trades.

You can choose up to 15 Pokemon at onces and a variable amount of items and currencies. The items have to be in your itembag while you can choose Pokemon from your Party or your Boxes which are not busy.

You can cancel trades at any time and the set up Pokemon and items go back to their place of origin - PDs and nuggets will be refunded compleatly.

Before uploading the new trade you have the option to add a comment at the bottom of the page. Even if it's optional, it it recommended to fill it out if you are looking for something specific. BBCodes will not be displayed!

Wonder trades

As of 25th April 2014, a new type of trade has been implemented, the Wonder Trade. This trade consists on leaving some Pokémon (up to 5) for trade, and at 10 PM server time, they will be randomly exchanged for Pokémon that others users have left in their Wonder trades as well. You will not know who you are trading with until after the trade has been completed, by checking the wonder trade history.

If you have participated in a Wonder trade, you will receive a notification when it happens, telling you what you obtained from the trade.

  • There are two types of Wonder trades: Regular and Shiny Wonder Trades.
  • Wonder trades are unlocked at Trainerlevel 8.

Note: What you get from the trade is completely random. This means you can set up a common Pokémon and you can get a rare one, or even Shinies and legendaries (if any has been set up) or vice versa.

Setting up a wonder trade

Viewing Pokémon set up for a Wonder Trade

To set up a wonder trade, choose the Pokémon you want to trade from your boxes/party and they will be ready for the Wonder trade. You can take your Pokémon back at any time if you change your mind before the trade happens.

Wonder trade slots

The maximum number of wonder trades you can set up at a time is given if you meet certain requirements. The maximum number of Wonder trade that you can set up at the same time is 5 for regular and shiny section.

Wonder Trade slots
1 Basic
2 Unlocked at Trainerlevel 15
3 Unlocked at Trainerlevel 20
4 Unlocked with a Premium Account
5 Unlocked upon having a Wonder Trade Gold card

Wonder Trade raffle

A notificaction telling you won a Pass code.

Everyday one random Pokémon at the Wonder Trade Station is exchanged by a secret Pass Code, which can be submitted at the bottom of the page. Upon submitting a Pass Code, you will obtain an Ho-Oh egg.

Secret Pass Codes can be redeemed by any user, not only who the one who originally recieved it, meaning you can give the code for other user for they to obtain the egg instead. However, each pass code can only be submitted once.

Shiny Wonder Trade

As of May 2015 a new feature of "shiny wonder trade" has been introduced. This works in a similar fashion as the normal wonder trade.

  • You can only set up shiny pokemon for exchange
  • Wonder Trade does not take place daily, pokemon will be traded every Wednesday and Saturday at 10 PM [server time]
  • A regular Ho-Oh pass code is given out every wondertrade to a random participant, but very rarely, a shiny Ho-Oh pass code is given out.
