The shiny wonder trade has just been implemented and I think it's amazing. Yet there are people complaining about how they put in rare shines and onky got out easy rarity shinies.

My suggestion is that whatever rarity pokemon you put in, That's the rarity you get out. Say you put in, a weedle. Weedles rarity is easy. So instead of you getting a pokemon with rarity rare, you get another pokemon with rarity easy.
You get what you put in to put it simply.


I know it's literally been half an hour since the first SWT, but it would help balance things out slightly.


If you don't like this suggestion or if you want to suggest how to improve it, please comment.

That is a really good idea because if you but in a shiny legendary and get a weedle you would not be to happy

The whole point of the wonder trade system is that you don't know what you will get. In a normal wonder trade, you can put in any rarity and get any rarity out. The shiny wonder trade should be the same. If there is a shiny that you don't want to lose than don't put it up. If you don't like the shiny you got, put it up again the next day and maybe you'll get a shiny with a special rarity.

The SWTs don't rake place every day, it's every 3 days. I understand it's a mystery, and the normal WT is fine. But shiny Pokemon are a lot rarer and harder to get, meaning you'd get back whatever you put in.

Then put it up in three days. I'm just explaining why I don't think anything is wrong with the Wondertrade. It's the whole point of it. I know shiny pokemon are harder to get and if you don't want to lose a certain shiny, you don't have to put it up.

But what if you don't want a certain shiny, can't get rid of it and need to put it in the SWT? You don't want the shiny, but you want soemthing of about the same rarity.

If it matters that much to you, put it in the GTS and say you want a shiny of the same rarity. That's what it is there for.

As I said before, what if you can't get rid of it? No-one wants the shiny and you can't get rid of it?

Then keep putting it in the wondertrade till you get something you want. That's the beauty of the wondertrade. You can put a shiny ninetales in, get a shiny weedle out, put the shiny weedle in and get a shiny rayquaza in return. Thats literally the whole point of the wondertrade. If you haven't been able to get rid of the shiny, then waiting 3 days for the next new wondertrade shouldn't be a problem.

But what about the person who put in a shiny Rayquaza(is that even possible?)? They would feel a bit annoyed if they got a weedle in return.

Maybe they shouldn't put up a Shiny Rayquaza(it is.. I believe) then if what they got would annoy them. And, again, they can put up whatever they didn't like in 3 days and possibly get something just as cool.

It's not a bad idea. It just goes against the whole point of the wondertrade.

Well it narrows the results of what you're gonna get down a bit, but there a still loads of pokemin with that same rarity.

Goddess is right, since when had wondertrade in pokemon oras and x and y ever let you choose a rarity of pokemon, this wouldn't help at all think of it this way,WONDER in WonderTrading is basically wondering what you will get. It's their fault for putting that shiny in so why should it be made easier, if it was then what if no one put a shiny legendary in? Then they would get NOTHING.

Then don't out in a shiny Rayquaza if you don't want to risk it.

This has been suggested for the regular wondertrade several times, and the points are the same.

If you put in a legend, don't expect a legend back. In fact, in that case there would be only one shiny legend in the trade

The joy of the wondertrade is how random it is

Getting the same rarity back defeats the point tbh

If you can read this, you know how to read.

This suggestion will boost it!
What about a section for SWT in which you can only put rarity easy and others with other rarities?

No support I agree with Nessy and why should we have this if people are just going to put easy rarity shinies in the shiny wonder trade? I doubt anyone would put in shiny legendaries so if someone does then what would happen with it if the are no other shiny legendaries in wonder trade?

No Support,
That just ruins the purpose of the ShinyWonderTrade and the word 'wonder', it has the word wonder because it's meant to be random, if we keep receiving the same pokemon rarity over and over, i would be really depressed.

Also, as someone has said imagine wondertrading in pokemon games on the Ds, those wont trade the same rarity to different users over and over again.

To add to all that, what if i put up a rare shiny pokemon or medium rarity, and there isn't enough for another user to receive a shiny and would have to wait until the next SWT comes along.

Further more, if you don't want to get bad shinies, just don't set up the SWT up, it's that simple. If you don't like the pokemon you have gotten wait for the next SWT and set up the shiny pokemon that you don't want.

I've actually changed my mind now. I agree with everyone. Can someone please move this to rejected? It seemed like a good idea at the time, but now I don't think it it.

Wait, am I missing something? You say people are complaining that they are getting terrible shinies back, but we haven't even had a round of SWTs sent yet...
