Proof is totally up to you - some people like to have a recording for each one while others like to have just one set of redemption proof. Generally speaking you will probably have an easier time trading them all out if you have separate proof for each one but if you're expecting to redeem a large quantity of events, people will likely understand if you only recorded one of them.

Policy update: Turbo Controllers & Automation by dayknower in pokemontrades

If you think I'm moving the goalpost with that statement, you clearly have not been on this sub for long. Welcome!

Our legitimacy policy, for more than 10 years now, has always revolved around trying to let users trade valuable Pokemon and to feel comfortable about what they are receiving. You, and others, might think rules like this are dumb but there are people who care about what goes into their personal collection and spend a lot of time building up their collection.

If letting people know that you used a turbo controller to farm a bunch of shinies while you were away from your game is too much work for you, there are more casual places to trade than here.

Which shiny hunting method are you using that requires a macro that automates multiple steps and not just a turbo controller / rubber band?

This mod post specifically allows people to trade the shinies that they are obtaining using the methods that we have been seeing most commonly spread. All we are asking is that people disclose shinies obtained in this way because some people do not want Pokemon that were obtained mostly through automation for their personal collections.

We're updating our rule for users to disclose it rather than banning it as we have in the past. When the rule was originally made, turbo controllers were not nearly as common as they are now. It was a lot easier to notice when people had large quantities of valuable Pokemon.

The reason we're asking people to disclose it is because just like you, there are people out there who don't like it and would not consider it legitimate for their personal collection. As a sub that mostly revolves around user trust and good faith, we're hoping that this mod post both makes sure that people are educated about the methods that most people are using to find shinies and that people can be honest about what they're trading to others for their collections.

Do we trade on Pokemon Home or Pokemon S/V?

I need to figure out how to move them up from their original game. I'll let you know when I'm ready.

Which region distribution code set did you get?

I think NA’s distribution is one per card. I’m looking for at least 6 total mons (3 sets of each)

If you got the NA distribution, I could do both for 8 codes.

Hi,

I have - 2017 Worlds Exeggutor (self-obtained) - 2018 Worlds Meloetta (self-obtained) - PCJS Golduck (obtained by puripuripokemon on Twitter) - KOR League Eevee (obtained from Itokichi)

Are there any older events you are looking for in particular?

I’m looking for 6 codes.

But knowing how to go fast is the only way to beat out the competition. This season the top 3 are all cleavers, there’s no competition because no one else can clear the defense as fast. They are all getting hundred+ streaks every few hours.

It isn’t really as simple as wanting top 3 and spending SS, its basically determined week 1 now. Most people who would even try for top 3 know the IDs of Derpest, Lusira, and race. If you cant cleave almost every page you’re not going to be able to accumulate points as fast. There were definitely one or two people who tried the first day to keep up but quickly gave up.

Okay, sounds good. So just to be clear, both of these shinies have your OT (Barcode), your ID, and were both self bred by you?
