All through GTS today, yesterday was a fusion of GTS and regular trading. (Mainly GTS)

Everyone wants legendaries, if you have one you can get pretty much any legendary by trading one to get another one to get another one and so on.

I stalk every single Pokemon who's shiny I'm interested in, once I see it up for trade if it's not a un-tradeable pokemon and something I don't have, I see if I can trade around to get that Pokemon if I don't already have it already. You have to be extremely quick, and have a lot of spare legendaries that you can trade around. Sometimes it's not a legendary for regular Pokemon that's being requested at a high level, so I check to see if I have that Pokemon or if I can train it or trade for one so I can level it up in less than 5 minutes so I can make a trade in time for that shiny.

Tips: If your interested in a certain shiny Pokemon that has multiple evolutions (Let's say Golem for example) stalk Graveler and Geodudes for it, normally the second evolution isn't as popular or looked on the GTS so when a shiny does appear it's not noticed right away by most people.
Also! If you traded away your last -insert legendary here- you can always trade around to get another one back unless you have some sort of sentimental value with legendaries caught by your owns hands then if so ignore this tip.


Now to wait patiently until one of my friends IRL will stop being lame and will actually spend time with me so we can use the cloning glitch to clone all these shinies for me so I can mass trade them through the GTS. ._.
