Wireless Trade Corner rules and regulations
General rules
* TDA's Rules apply here, though there is no character/word limit.
Posting rules
1. No hacked Pokémon
This includes:
* Legendary Pokémon that are below the level caught in-game.
* Pokémon that have maxed out stats.
* Fanmade events. They're all hacked, anyway. Only real events can be traded.
* This list could go on for a while, but the point is, any Pokémon caught or edited with the use of programs such as: Action Replay, Codebreaker, Gameshark, Pokesav, we do not allow here.
* Trading hacked Pokémon of any nature will give the member an infraction worth 3 points.
2. Event Pokémon
We do not allow certain Pokémon to be traded here:
* (NEW) Events not listed in this thread can't be traded. Such threads will have their posts edited immediately. If there are any concerns about this list, you can PM Shiny Umbreon or TwilightBlade.
* Darkrai and Shaymin - We do not allow Darkrai and Shaymin anymore if they were obtained through a glitch, even if it doesn't count as a cheating device. This decision has been made in order to avoid hacked Darkrai and/or Shaymin. However, Movie Darkrai is allowed.
* Arceus - Naturally, it is not allowed either until it's given in a Nintendo event.
* Shiny Events - There are some events that are supposed to be shiny for the first person that received it, but since there's little chance that people will trade it, it's against the rules to trade it to avoid hacked ones. This includes Mew, Celebi and Jirachi. In addition, note that any other event Pokémon are set to be non-shiny except for island Lugia/Ho-oh/Deoxys and hatched Manaphy. More detailed information can be found here.
* Trading any Pokémon not allowed (after being told so) will give the member an infraction worth 3 points, as with hacks.
3. Please specify if there are items attached to the Pokémon.
This is self-explanatory.
4.
Be patient, It may take a while before someone views your thread.
Do not yell at people, or generally become annoying if your trade is not completed quickly.
5. Please only post in a request topic if you're accepting the trade at hand.
Also self-explanatory.
6. On trade evolutions...
If you're trading to evolve a Pokémon (ex. Kadabra, Slowpoke, Machoke), it'd be best to work that out over private messaging, but you can create a thread if you want.
7. On "Guess the number to get the Pokémon" games...
These just create alot of spam, and are uneeded - members are likely to get annoyed quickly if they don't get it. Don't make these kind of threads, please.
8. There's a limit to how many trade threads you can make...
The limit is you're allowed to at least create 3 trade threads. Only ask of the moderator of the section to approve of your 4th one or more. Stick to one trade thread, not make multiple others.
9. Also, you should probably read this post.
10. These are rules, not suggestions.
Additional notes
1. On scamming...
TDA dubs itself in no way responsible for scams, Pokémon steals in trades, etc. If a stranger is asking to temporarily get your Pokémon through a trade, do it at your own risk. It is your total responsibility to prevent your Pokémon from being stolen online.
2. Cloning threads...
To avoid users from being stolen Pokémon, it's now against the rules to create cloning threads, so such threads will be closed instantly. If you see a thread offering to clone Pokémon, DO NOT ACCEPT, because that's the easiest way to steal Pokémon. Instead, report the thread. If you want someone to clone you a Pokémon, you may ask it through PM, but remember this is at your own risk, so make sure it's someone you know well.
Also, if someone offers you to clone Pokémon, never accept it from a new member.
3. Runescape, Neopets, etc.
You'd think this would be obvious, however apparently it is not.
You are not allowed to trade Pokémon/eggs/items for Runescape/Neopets etc. items/cash/whatever.
Such threads will be closed immediately!
