Top 5 Needed Pokemon GTS Improvements

[Rika]

Do you usually use the GTS to trade pokemon?
does it works well for you?
aren't you tired to look for any simple pokemon and find that the other one is asking something quite difficult, like "ARCEUS"!!
let's make a list of TOP 5 GTS improvements !
please post yours!

1. don't exchange legendaries pokemon with simple pokemon!
2. option shiny for shiny?
3. control levels (you can't trade a gyarados in level 1!)
4. show hold items or special part for trade-evolve pokemon
5. Add friend safari world wide (show the pokemon that you want to share with some choices)

I used the GTS a lot when completing the National Dex and sometimes I still use it, but it's quite hard because of its limitations.

My top 5 GTS improvements:

1. Show all the info about a Pokémon, including nature, ability, held item and stats. Would love to see the markings too, for those who use them to show the perfect IV's of a Pokémon.

2. Ability to put more than one Pokémon on the GTS. Now you constantly have to wait until your one Pokémon is traded, until you can put another one up. Sure made completing the Dex a lot more time-consuming than it had to be.

3. Ability to reverse search. For example: if I search Torchic, it'll show the people that want a Torchic, instead of those that have one. After completing the Dex I had lots of Pokémon left and I would've loved to see what people want to trade for those, instead of having to throw them in Wonder Trade and get boxes full of Zigzagoon in return...

4. Impossible trades shouldn't be allowed, e.g. you shouldn't be able to ask for level 1 Gyarados (like said above) and event Pokémon.

5. I would like more options for what is shown, like "Don't show legendary and/or mythical Pokémon".

good one!
but the last one, 5 is already done. but it doesn't work very well or don't
that option is known as: "special pokemon don't show up"

Arg I forgot that option existed! However it does seem to only exclude the box legendaries and the event Pokémon. Legendaries like Latios and Articuno still show up, I'd like those excluded as well.

This so much. The easiest way I can think of is that instead of choosing a Pokemon from the list, you choose one from your PC boxes and it brings up a list of all trades wanting that kind/level/etc. of Pokemon.

And agreed, if you're not allowed to deposit a certain species on the GTS then you shouldn't be allowed to request it for whatever you do.
