Talk:Global Terminal

This is odd... In the GTS interface, it says "Global Trade System", but outside, the building is clearly marked as "Global Trade Station". Which should redirect to the other? TTEchidna 08:57, 11 August 2007 (UTC)

I suppose Station refers to the location while System refers to the service. Annnd that still leaves it a bit hard to say. I suppose since things like Pal Park are referred to by their location name anyway, Station may be more appropriate. ...Maybe?

On second thought, if the only use of Global Trade Station you can find is on the building, System may be better if that's all Nintendo calls it.--Porygon 10:51, 11 August 2007 (UTC)

The new website calls it "Station"... R'win 13:59, 27 September 2007 (UTC)

I have a question that isn't mentioned on the article. On Geonet, what's the difference between the light blue squares and the yellow squares? --Lime 02:26, 13 August 2007 (UTC)

I haven't seen it written anywhere, but I would guess that one is trades by Seeking and the other is trades by Depositing. I haven't paid enough attention to be able to guess which is which, though. R'win 13:52, 27 September 2007 (UTC)

The blue blue squares are trades that happened the day you look at the globe. All the other yellow squares are trades that didn't occur on the day you looked at the globe. --Moldy orange 00:12, 01 December 2007 (UTC)

Umm I can't remember exactly but I think one is the one in the center of the screen no matter where you're looking, there's another to show your own position (the one you inputed, if you did so), and then the rest are where people are that you've traded with. --Greengiant 06:37, 13 August 2007 (UTC)

I think that there should be add on this page about the new website http://www.pokemon-gts.net/ . -- 8:38 ,14 September 2007 (UTC)

"Nintendo has stated that this was a "technical difficulty". This proved true after legendary Pokémon became available again on both the GTS and Pokémon Battle Revolution." They have been? Only my Movie 10 Darkrai has been able to get on the GTS. All my other legends can't get on. --Vereux0 22:37, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

^ Funny thing is, the Movie 10 Darkrai usually CAN'T get on the GTS, because of the Classic Ribbon on it. ;) TinaTheKirlia 21:41, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

Someone tricked me into getting a CHEATED Vespiquen on the GTS. It seemed legitimate. I even attached a Dragon Scale to the Seadra I traded over. Then I saw that the location it was met was "Pokémon League" at Lv. 54 (the level it was currently at) and it was in a Master Ball. So I released it.

Will it have any permanent effects on my game? File:Ani164MS.gifShiny^{Talk | Contribs}File:Ani408MS.gifFile:Ani410MS.gif 01:20, 7 November 2007 (UTC)

Xei is a cheated Weavile. I've had her for a while and she hasn't affected my game. I have a random shiny Mew on Diamond that was met at Route 203, and Diamond didn't die. It might look a little "Aaaaaah!" at first, but it doesn't do anything to your game. :) Tina^☆♥♫ 01:25, 7 November 2007 (UTC)

I thought you cheated for Xei... Now I know. File:Ani164MS.gifShiny^{Talk | Contribs}File:Ani408MS.gifFile:Ani410MS.gif 01:28, 7 November 2007 (UTC)

Why is it so hard to find a decent trade on the GTS? (Decent as in not a Level 1 Vaporeon for a Level 70 or above Lugia.) File:Ani164MS.gifShiny^{Talk | Contribs}File:Ani408MS.gifFile:Ani410MS.gif 01:32, 7 November 2007 (UTC)

Hey, it wasn't ME who cheated for it X3 My friend did. Tina^☆♥♫ 01:52, 7 November 2007 (UTC)

I got a legitimate French Combee from the GTS. Combee's French name is a lot better than its English name or its Japanese name. Yay Apitrini! File:Ani164MS.gifShiny^{Talk | Contribs}File:Ani408MS.gifFile:Ani410MS.gif 01:54, 7 November 2007 (UTC)

How do I know when a Pokémon I put on the GTS has been traded? File:Ani164MS.gifShiny^{Talk | Contribs}File:Ani408MS.gifFile:Ani410MS.gif 02:19, 7 November 2007 (UTC)

As far as I'm aware, you can only know by loging onto GTS itself and checking that way.--Conan-san 20:48, 17 November 2007 (UTC)

I got a japanese Chimchar a while back that had a Japanese Nick and OT and came from a Day-Care Couple egg. After it evolved into Monferno (@ lv 17 or so, whenver it learns Fire Wheel) it's name changed into the default (MONFERNO) and I can't change it cuz it counts as a trade pokemon. Is this all normal?--Conan-san 20:47, 17 November 2007 (UTC) ~~

PS: I got it after trading a random PKMN and leaving the game for about two months because I got a Wii, so I can't remember what PKMN I traded for it, wasn't too important, I guess.

Completely normal. Tina^☆♥♫δ 20:52, 17 November 2007 (UTC)

Gah, what a pain in the backside...ah well, give what I get I suppose. --Conan-san 21:37, 17 November 2007 (UTC)

Trade Evo thing

Wow! Why does the Trade Evo thing work? File:Ani164MS.gifShiny^{Talk | Contribs}File:Ani408MS.gifFile:Ani410MS.gif 00:54, 9 November 2007 (UTC)

It's still a trade, isn't it?--Ｌｏｖｅはドコ？ (talk • contribs) 02:47, 9 November 2007 (UTC)

A GTS glitch...

Okay.

So I searched for a Garchomp, on the GTS of course. One of the results had the sprite of a Spiritomb, which was what they were asking for. Same thing happened with a Cherubi asking for a Turtwig. Should we list it? Tina^☆♥♫δ281s 05:34, 22 November 2007 (UTC)

That just means that the Pokémon has already been traded. You see that person wanted a Spiritomb for a Garchomp. For some reason, it's still registered that the person has a Garchomp because they didn't log on to the GTS since the trade. It shows that they have Spiritomb already and their Garchomp was already traded. That happened to me too. --☆ケンジガール 05:42, 22 November 2007 (UTC)
