Special Trading does become more accessible over time. Special Trades can only be done once per day to limit the number of times a single Trainer can make Special Trades with all of their friends. Special trades are all trades involving Legendary PokГ©mon, Shiny PokГ©mon, Purified PokГ©mon and PokГ©mon that have not been registered in the PokГ©dex. Trainers are currently limited to 100 trades per day. This feature promotes trading without giving a significant advantage to one Trainer over another. In order to bar Trainers from continually re-rolling a PokГ©mon's stats through trade, a traded PokГ©mon cannot be traded again.

A PokГ©mon that may not be great in battle may excel in battle once traded to a friend, or it could become even worse. In other words, as a Trainer's Friendship level increases with a friend, they will have a slightly better chance of receiving a strong PokГ©mon when trading. Assign new, fully random stat values with a minimum based on Friendship level, and that base increases the higher that level is.Check Friend's Trainer level to confirm the PokГ©mon is not powered up past what would ordinarily be obtainable for someone at that level.There's a thoughtful calculation to deciding that range: Before a Trainer completes a trade, they will see the range of CP and HP that the PokГ©mon could potentially have when the trade is complete. The stats of the PokГ©mon will change randomly within a range when traded. Trainer level 10 is required for trading. Trading is special, and although several mechanics are in place to ensure that Trainers donвЂ™t take unfair advantage of it, there are also plenty of rewards to make these mechanics feel unique and personal. This allows Trainers to freely trade most PokГ©mon that they encounter within reasonable limits, as Stardust is an important resource. If swapping PokГ©mon already found within their PokГ©dexes, only a minimal amount of Stardust is required. All trades require both trainers to use Stardust. Trading PokГ©mon can be done between two friends that are in 100 m from each other in real life.
