    Fun fact: in Black 2 and White 2, there’s a Hiker around Skyla’s Gym that will offer you his Gigalith for your Emolga. Since there’s a Boldore-for-Emolga trade in the first games, the popular theory is that this Hiker is giving you the Boldore you traded him in the base game, now evolved.

      You should have mentioned Ghosuke the Haunter from Cerulean City in Pokemon Ao (Japanese Blue), you trade a Machoke in exchange for a Haunter that immediately evolves into Gengar. You could also trade Kadabra for Saburo the Graveler on Cinnabar Island in that game. Because of Jynx being found in the wild the man who traded it gives the Haunter Trade in Japanese Blue. The guy who gives you the underleveled Electrode in Red & Green does the trade to give you Graveler in Blue. The only of the 4 Gen 1 Trade Evos who wasn't offered by in game trade was Kadabra.

      @@RodimusMinor1987 You know, the logic of WHAT people want to do in trades is actually kinda related to the story of the NPC who's trading... and the logic for the Steelix is actually that the guy came to town trying to get a Luvdisc. Similar logic was used in Gen1 for the pokemon you ONLY get from trades. These people were strangers who don't live in the place where you find them.
      I kinda prefer the guys who just trade for something you get in a different town though. Having someone in the icy village trade for a pokemon you find on the sea coast... actually makes logical sense... even though it's an easy trade. Because the person offering the trade... isn't in the area that pokemon is found.

    I believe that Mr. Mime IS in fact superior to Kadabra for a gen 1 playthrough do to the fact that it is a traded pokemon, so it will level up faster which offsets the slight discrepency in speed and special, and it is bulkier. Additionally, it is useable immediately, whereas Abra needs to be switch trained or raised in the daycare until it comes online at level 16

      I've always wondered this: If you're playing Brilliant Diamond or Shining Pearl and you are using Team Sky, then wouldn't Mindy's Haunter not evolving actually be a good thing? Gengar no longer has Levitate, so I'd assume it's no longer eligible for use on Team Sky.

    I kind of like that 5 generations after the infamous Gaspar trade, Gamefreak rectified this insult to players by offering an in-game trade in Scarlet and Violet where you offer up a Pincurchin for a Haunter that WILL evolve into a Gengar when traded. You perform the trade in Levincia beside the battle court, although fair warning, the Haunter will have a Brave Nature, which is plus attack and minus speed, which is terrible for Gengar, so hopefully you have a nature mint to change it to modest or another beneficial nature.

    Paldean Wooper for a regular Wooper. If you didn't pick Quaxly, a good Water/Ground PokeMon can help you out. Nothing against Whiscash and Dragon Dance or Gastrodon's Storm Drain, but Quagsire's pretty good.
    Finally, the best one of all. Trading a weak Pincurchin for a Haunter where the minute you get a Haunter, it becomes Gengar so if you didn't pick Fuecoco, Gengar will be a great asset to your team.

    If modern games had no Physical/Special split (special would be the average of a pokemons special attack and special defense in this experiment), no held items, no abilities, the 1/256 glitch, the old typing matchups, typing decided if a move was special or physical and so on...

    3:36 I haven't played my Gen 1 carts in a while, so I might be wrong, but im pretty sure there's a small chance to get polywhirl with the good rod. But Gen 1 had had so many re-releases that I could be thinking fire red

    I remember using Cha the Hawlucha in my final USUM team, probably the best pokemon I've used in any playthrough

    I think the biggest benefit of in game trade Pokémon is the boosted XP associated with them. The early game Rocky trade in generation 2 definitely being the one that comes to mind first.

    Video idea: What’s the “staple Pokemon” of every region/game.(Like Ludicolo for Hoenn region etc.....)

      BooksRFun58 Like the Pokemon which is most commonly seen in the Hall Of Fame team of a player(and is used almost in the entire playthrough......which means it’s available early and easily)

    In my LeafGreen Nuzlocke, I got the Jynx trade and she was an absolute BEAST. She destroyed Lance in the Elite 4 and lived all the way to the end!

    I've actually completed a run through of Fire Red with Mr Mime, knowing Psychic, Magical Leaf, Shock Wave and Reflect, and Jynx with Ice Punch, Psychic, Lovely Kiss and Dream Eater. Between them, they can steamroll the elite four pretty much single handed.

    Something you forgot to mention about Thumper the Steelix is that it has a +Def nature AND a perfect defence IV (I think ivs are set), my Thumper has a defence stat of over 400 due to it being lvl 93, +Def nature, and a perfect defence IV
