For gamers who don’t have friends to trade Pokemon with, there’s an opportunity in-game that allows them to do this and that’s by trading virtually within the game.
Throughout the Kalos region, players will find random people that they can trade with. The process is fairly simple; have the Pokemon they request and they will give you what they have. There are several people that players will meet along the way. It’s important for everyone to visit every room in town or talk to the people to make sure they don’t miss any possible in-game trades.
Below is the list of possible in-game trades that can be done in both Pokemon X and Pokemon Y:
Farfetch’d
Location: Santalune City
– Find the trainer southwest of the Trainer school. Speak to the Hiker who wants to trade his Farfetch’d for your ‘Bunnelby’.
Bisharp
Location: Snowbelle City
– Go to the house west of the Northern bridge. Talk to the girl that wants to trade her Bisharp for your ‘Jigglypuff’.
Ralts
Location: Lumiose City
– After defeating the Elite Four, go back to the Cafe in Southern Boulevard and talk to Diantha. She will trade her Ralts for any of your Pokemon.
Steelix
Location: Cyllage City
– Inside the Pokemon Center, find the trainer that will trade his Steelix for your ‘Luvdisc’.
Magikarp
Location: Random Hotel
– Find the hiker at a certain hotel. The Hiker will trade his Magikarp for your ‘Gyarados’.
Eevee
