In-game trade

The subject of this article has no official name.

Reason: IVs of XY Magikarp and Eevee.

An in-game trade is a trade made with NPCs in the core series and spin-off Pokémon games . The process
uses the same trading sequence as player trades and is usually done for Pokémon that are difficult or impossible
to obtain through other means, or for Pokémon unavailable at that point of the game. In later games, the traded
Pokémon often has special moves, like Egg Moves .
Prior to Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver , the NPC Trainer will always specify a Pokémon they want to trade
for. The Pokémon the player receives in the trade will have a fixed original Trainer and nickname ; in later
games the Trainer ID number , held item , Nature , IVs, and/or level can be fixed as well.
Like Pokémon traded externally, the traded Pokémon will be treated as an outsider , and gain a boosted amount
of experience points in battle . Prior to Generation V , every Pokémon has the same level as the Pokémon it was
traded for, except in Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness .

Generation I

This article is incomplete.

Please feel free to edit this article to add missing information and complete it.
Reason: Check that the Gen II held items of trade evolutions and Japanese Blue's Krabby are correct.

All Trainer ID numbers and IVs are random in the Generation I games. The original Trainer always uses the
hardcoded text string 0x5D, which is displayed as TRAINER (Japanese: トレーナー Trainer) in the game's
language. In Western language versions of the handheld games and Pokémon Stadium , this string is displayed in
ALLCAPS ("TRAINER" in English), whereas in Pokémon Stadium 2 it is displayed in title case ("Trainer" in
English).
The held item column refers to the item the Pokémon will be holding if it is traded to a Generation II game. With
the exception of Pokémon that evolve during that trade and Krabby in Japanese Blue, they have the same item a
wild Pokémon of the same species would have if it were traded to a Generation II game; Pokémon that evolve
during the trade have the item their evolved form would have, while Krabby has TM13 (Snore ) instead of
TM33 (Reflect ).

Red and Blue/Green

In Pokémon Red and Blue , Nidoran♂ is traded for Nidoran♀; in Pokémon Red and Green , Nidoran♀ is traded
for Nidoran♂.

In the English language version of Pokémon Diamond and Pearl , Kazza, Charap, and Gaspar are functionally
Japanese in origin. While this has no effect in the Generation IV games (since their species do not have foreign
Pokédex entries in the Generation IV games), it becomes noticeable when sent to later generations . These
Pokémon have the correct language of origin if obtained in any other game language or Pokémon Platinum .

Trivia
In Pokémon Red and Blue , the Scientist at the Pokémon Lab on Cinnabar Island who trades Electrode fo
Raichu claims that Raichu evolved, which is not possible. This is due to a context-ignorant translation of the
Japanese Pokémon Blue text, in which the player trades Kadabra for Graveler , both of which evolve by
trade.
Similarly, the old man who trades the player Jynx for Poliwhirl in Cerulean City claims that Poliwhirl
"went and evolved". Poliwhirl does not evolve by trade in the Generation I games but rather through the
use of a Water Stone . In the context of the Japanese Pokémon Blue, the old man trades away Haunter for
Machoke , both of which evolve by trade.
In Pokémon Crystal , even if the player has their Haunter hold an Everstone and trades it for Chris's Xatu
"Paul", Chris will still comment that it evolved into Gengar .
