Can you cancel a trade if you set it up wrong
@lime scarab that’s all I got
You'll have to ask @rotund swan about that
I tryed to trade a Pokémon and when I agreed to the trade the bot canceled
I don't know onhand
Somebody else may have tried to prank and intercepted the trade before you could complete it
Maybe
@covert crane, can you help chris102216?
I feel like you would know more about this than me
Chances are someone had the same code as you, but started searching earlier than they were meant to. Either way only thing you can really do is rejoin the queue
What level pokemon will obey me, and why do my badges beside my ice one look dirty?
I believe up to 70 @wet mesa
is it possible to get shiny volcanion in sword and shield from gangar bot
you have to rub your screen to clean them
No it’s not possible check the pins in #swordshield-bot for Pokémon you cannot get
Use Pokémon showdown and it can’t be shiny but I think you can it should be magearna original form
What games can I use this to trade with
Is there a way to get generated pokemon from different regions (ie Japan, Germany, etc)?
How do I add a lucky egg/sooth bell to my pokemon as a held item before generating it?
.trade Pokemon @ Soothe Bell
Public bots are for Sword/Shield and Legends: Arceus.
Patreon bots cater for Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl
You can do this-
Language: German
Before the moveset
Is anyone else having trouble with connecting to the bot? I've tried to trade with it around 8 times today and even though I put in the right code it just won't connect
Is it saying “too slow” or “trainer not found” ?
Yeah, but I've put in the code while I was in like position ten
So I was way ahead of the bot
Which one though? Too slow?
Trainer not found
Okay so it’s not a speed issue.
It’s happened to a few people lately. Might be worth trying again later.
Alright
@royal pier Pokemon have a specific level which they have to at least to evole Krookodiles is Level 40, also if you want the pokemon to have their german name add a line with Language: German
Also try this one
.trade .trade Rabigator (Krookodile) (M)
Ability: Intimidate
Level: 40
Language: German
EVs: 184 Atk / 16 Def / 96 SpD / 212 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Aerial Ace
- Dig
- Dragon Claw
- Crunch
@rotund swan What I mentioned in the message before applies for your Kommo-o too, it needs to be at least Level 45 just to evolve but it might need a higher Level depending on when it learns which move
@sturdy pier Same applies for you as well
Noivern cant be Level 1, it needs to be at least Level 48 to evolve
@next cobalt I saw your message in #936098106100047882 but your asking for help with your dex in the wrong channel if you need help with your regular pla dex we have a whole channel just for that please go read #937075162392719481 ^
And follow the instructions there
when doing the trading, can you set your pokemon in a certain level? (ex. having a shiny gardevoir set to lvl 30)
Yes, just add a line with Level: x, x = the level you want it to be, before the moveset (where exactly doesnt matter just before the moveset)
It should look like this
.trade Garchomp
Level: 69
Look it up on the internet, its called "Sysbot" but just so you know. Its by far more than just a bot which you add on Discord but you'll see what is required when you search it yourself
@rotund swan Pokemon have a specific level which they have to at least to evole to Noivern is Level 48, also if you want the pokemon to have their german name add a line with Language: German before the moveset
There is a guide made by the people who programmed those Sysbots, use this or try to find a video guide. Because Im pretty sure that no one is going to explain it. Most of the people in this server dont know how to do it and the ones who do are probably not going to write a whole book just to explain it to you. I repeat myself, but use the internet if you want to set up your own
How do you open the daily boxes in varubot?
With !ui box1/2/3
Just use 1 for Tier 1 boxes, 2 for tier 2 and 3 for tier 3
Anyone know if the bdsp bot is working?
Thank you
It seems to work since someone used it 20mins ago, but its Patreon-Subscriber/Premium-Member exclusive
Oh. Did it turn exclusive recently?
I think that is for quite some time now
I just bought for 1 month patreon for lapras normal
Hiw can i have acces to the channel?
Do I need win rar if I’m on Mac?
can’t you just press the bots info and press ad to server
apparently not
How do you change the original Trainer name?
@sick path it is .qs
its canceled my trade twice now for suspiciious activity does anyone know what might be going wrong
Yeah I tried trading a zekrom and it canceled due to suspicious activity I don’t know what’s going wrong
why isnt there a dsp gengar
what happened to the arceus bot?
The leader is on a vacation and won't be back until Saturday, the bot broke and he can't fix it until then
ah ok ty
@worldly leaf The message suspicious activity appers when you either use two Discord accounts to trade to one save file or one Discord account to trade to two save files
ok
Is it just the legends bot or the swsh bot too?
Only #940357499297615902
Oh
why bots down
Hes talking about the swsh one, Admin is already pinged. Edit: Channel is locked
The free gengar bots are currently down, thats why you cant write in them. To get access to the lapras ones you either have to be a Premium-Member or a Patreon-Subscriber
So I was right? Or did they just go down now?
July 30th mid-day
Oh thank you much !!
Np
#swordshield-bot got down a few minutes ago, so when you asked about the bots that are down then there was only #940357499297615902 at that time which didnt work
Ah ok, sorry if I came off cocky, that wasn't my intention
No need to be sorry, I didnt feel like you came off cocky. I just wanted to explain, that #swordshield-bot sadly went down about 20mins ago :)
Alr cool
why are the bots locked
@distant epoch they are down.
They occasionally go down and have to be reset.
Its the move Blaze Kick that cause the problems
For any member here who’s wondering what’s going on with the bots, well- to put it bluntly, it’s shut down, and specifically shut down till July 30th. If you’re impatient about waiting, consider Lapras bot :))
100% worth it
eh im not gonna spend any money on a bot but thanks for the offer
is there a way to change the region of a pokemon, I'm trying to get a foreign ditto.
add a separate line anywhere before the moveset like:
Language: Japanese
Thank You!
Is there a way to generate a pokemon that knows all its egg moves
You can select the move sets if that’s what you’re asking @low nexus
I just joined why can I not ask to trade
i have two questions
are the pokemon not legally obtained and will bdsp have gengar?
because i cant type the word ha k
Technically “genning” @whole bloom
But they are all legal.
He does everything he can to ensure everything is legal.
🙂
Thanks for helping w/ questions Wolf
Not a problem @rotund swan sorry for double ping. Got lost in which chat box I was in 😂
thank you, ive been wondering this and didnt think there was a questions!
@whole bloom highly recommend looking into lapras.
alr
@rotund swan thanks
Np 
how do i breed a lucario?? ive tried using a ditto multiple times and a riolu but it doesnt work?????
How can I do the trade trick?
@severe venture unfortunately I can’t answer that but I’m sure someone else will
@tawdry kernel which trick?
When you go to Pokemon Showdown, set what Pokemon you want, put it as a shiny, set up the moves and copy the link. It should look like this -
.trade Magikarp @ Master Ball
Ability: Rattled
- Hydro Pump
- Bounce
- Splash
- Tackle
Or something like this
Yes.
Why isn't there a bdsp gengar
Ty
No one does currently. Gengar is down until the 30th.
Oof
However, lapras is 100% worth it
Ok
I recommend looking into it.
@tawdry kernel you’ll need to subscribe to use it.
The link is in the pinned area of the lapras channel.
That or you can get premium through discord.
Thanks!

Wait, do I have to be a whole member or can I just subscribe to the channel? (Sorry I'm new to this lmao)
All good! Through patreon you can subscribe to one of the 3 tiers for access or you can click “premium membership” at the top of the discord channel and you’ll gain access.
Ok
100% worth it. Gets rid of the long wait! And if you go through T2 on patreon you can gain access to Home which has a ridiculous amount of shiny’s among many others
Hi
read and do
Will my account get banned if I take Pokémon like this ?
I don't play competitive
I just do some battle tower and that's it
No worries, you wont get banned
Could I take it into Pokémon home as well ?
Yes
Google is free
But u cant do that because riolu is a baby pokemon and dosent produce eggs due to its egg group being in the undiscovered
U just need to breed a ditto with a lucario
Because lucario has breedable egg groups so either two lucario or one lucario and a ditto
Link patreon
@versed tapir Follow the steps on the picture above this message and you should get the role as well as all other benefits
Seems like you managed to do it while I was writing the message. Nvm then
i did use google and i couldnt see wut the problem was at the start thats why i asked it was bc my ditto was japanese
It’s fine now u know maboi
why can't i talk in swordshield lapras??
Because these are exclusive for Youtube/Premium-Member or Patreon-Subscriber
alr
Hello
Did you need something bud?
Yes i wonder if there is anybody Else that Plays brilliant diamond
There’s lot of people no need to ask here we have a whole channel for brilliant diamond and shining pearl #851309088293126145
Oh ok thanks
@quick jay all the free bots are currently down and we don’t have a free one for bdsp so idk why your still trying to request Pokémon in channels the bots don’t even work in😅
Use #936098106100047882, #910008611793698880, or #swsh-trades. This is for server questions only.
@lyric turret for one thing Eternatus is shiny locked still and therefore cannot be shiny and for 2 take a moment and read the message in the bot
It says that the bot is down until July 30th
Just read it my bad
Hey! So I'm just going to get straight to the point, is there any way to get a Pokémon with a certain gender with the bots, or is it all random?
.trade Eevee (M) or .trade Eevee (F)
Ah! Thanks a lot for the help!!
@livid lodge if you would actually take a moment and read the messages in the bot you would see the bot is currently down until the 30th
So do not use it
Ok thx for the help
why is the gengar bot not up
@karmic moon bot is down until 30th
30th of july?
Technically today depending on your time zone.
ok thanks for the help
Hello fellow trainers. How do I find out what my SID is?
Or what's "mid day" it's fine if the question cannot be answered
@fierce sigil no telling my friend. He’s got a life as well.
I know he knows about the situations and I’m sure it’s a top priority when he gets home.
why can’t i request a growlithe for pla
The H in Hisui needs to be capitalized bud
i’m a doof 🤣
Its a bot and these are used for server advertisement. It may also be a person who didnt want to keep it
when will gengar bot be on because its mid day in uk and dont what country/timezone tgus server work on
Not sure, but I think its the Pacific Timezone
Do you guys know how to evolve hisuian basculin blue form ?
Server related questions only, please. You can either ask in #929925209060962324 or use google :)
So sometime today
Is that permanent or is there anyway to change it
you can change it by adding a separate line like so:
OT: (name)
without the parentheses
Like for example
.trade OT(Jeffadias) ?
And then paste the Pokémon showdown link ?
Oh without the parentheses
But do I write it before or after the Pokémon link ?
it has to be on a separate line, you can type it in the pokemon showdown import/export text box before you copy and paste it into gengar bot. here’s an example:
.trade Turtwig
Shiny: Yes
OT: KingEd
Thank you guys so much
I know I've been really annoying with the messages
Just trying to get the hang of it before I do anything
no worries. if you have anymore questions just shoot
Cool
If I get the shiny lapras package on patreon how does the pokemon home account work? Do I just get the Pokemon home account details and sign in and grab whatever pokemon I want?
okay, thanks!
wait whatttt so i can change the OT thats awsome
Yes
@white bridge bud take like 5 seconds and read the messages in the bot before sending a request
OT: XXX
If you do that then you would have noticed the bot is down^
yeah i just figured it out and now im hyped
🙂
Wait you can modify the trainers name?
So what time will the bots be back?
I think he's on vacation
Okay thank you.
wait so if my in game name is rylen do i do OT: Rylen Or OT: XXX
OT: Rylen
Rylen
mk thanks
XXX is where you put the OT
ok
Cool
Yes, just add a separate line like so:
.trade Turtwig
Ball: Ultra Ball
it can go anywhere before the moves
Okay got it
Hi
Need something?
what should I name my shiny Poliwag
No need to ask that here ask in #951270958830866482 #929925209060962324 #851309088293126145 (whichever game your playing use the corresponding chat)
It quite literally says to ask "what should I name my shiny?" In the description of the chat lol
Well, it doesn't say too, but that's the question they use
Yes but this channel is for server questions only such as how to sign up for patreon bot help etc…
Nah the whole description doesn't show up on a phone, I just saw that
Should you input the code as soon as the bot gives it too you or should you wait
You start searching for the trade when the bot sends you the message that its initializing the trade
Ye
Thanks
I’m on a phone as well
It shows enough
do the bots trade genned egs?
This is what it looks like on mine
With a pkhex file I believe so without it I don’t think so
oh so if i download a file with an egg that contains a shiny mon then it will trade it to me
ok thanks. Yeah I am on my laptop now and Im gonna get some files ready for when it comes online
Np
Click it
Yeah ik I can now, didn't see the three dots before
I support that idea 
I was about to ask when specifically it will come back online
You’ll know as soon as it’s up
Okay thank u
Agreed.
If everyone keeps asking it'll be delayed to tomorrow
they’re down right now, just be patient
ok thanks for the help
Also if u can delete your last messages so he doesn't wait until tommorow to get the bots back up
Wait....
Wdym
cause he saw me say it
my bad
Oh ok
chill out cloud. you overreacting like that could make it delay too 😗
Ok ima shut up
why can't message in gengar arceus?
@urban jackal bot down
ok thx
Mhm
Heyooo so I haven’t used the bots since sword and shield so I was just wondering how trading with the bot works in BDSP?
Exactly the same with swsh bots just some items and Pokémon are unobtainable
Is it worth getting the patreon support now or should I wait on aug 1st?
You should wait til August 1st
if you buy the lapras patreon thing does it take out monthly with out premisson
If you sub yes
You’re subscribing for a monthly service.
You could sub then remove your membership but you’ll be charged for the month.
@remote hinge
why wont it let me use any bots
@opaque canyon gengar is currently down.
when do you think it will be back up?
Be patient and wait.
< Hello!! > ———————————
If you’re ever feeling complacent about the wait time or downtime of a particular bot, consider getting Lapras bots!
You can either subscribe on Patreon, YouTube Member, and or Discord Membership!
To clarify a few things, if you’re not any of the above, please understand you’re presently using our complimentary and shared version!
Is the patreon and the home acc real
what question is that
yes its real lol
Over 100 people will tell you it’s real @rotund swan
And the home account is actually pretty awesome. 100% recommend it.
I bought it hh
How to i get it ?
For the Pokemon Home account, just follow the instruction provided in the tier 2-3 in out channel's pinned comments
how do i trade by using a pkhex file?
Is it normal for the Gengar Bot trade to take long?
Im trading for a Shiny Steenee, i put in the code and its been a while now and I still haven't gotten the trade yet
type .qs in the gengar chat to check your spot in line
@tawdry kernel yep gengar takes a bit which is why it’s recommended to get lapras.
Hey all, how would I trade for an Ice Rider Calyrex in swordshield gengar, Im having trouble getting the bot to recognize it
I believe that’s one of the things you can’t trade. Checked pin messages @loud tundra
okay thanks

It just cancelled my trade out of nowhere
@tawdry kernel what did it say in the message?
Oops! Something happened. Canceling the trade: NoTrainerFound.
Make sure you’re connected to the internet and you join the proper link code
alright
is it midday yet lol
how accurate are the estimations usually on gengar
Depends on the usage
Thx
What do you mean @remote hinge
It’s normal
The time given is an estimate only and varies depending on usage and the users themselves
how come a cant just type like .trade Rowlet
Shiny: yes
Alpha: yes ?
How come my trade got cancelled for suspicious activity? Lol
I waited like an hour, rip 🥲
I read some other messages with the same error. Im not using multiple discord accounts or save files, so hopefully this was just a one time error and im not blocked lol
it should go away after 2 hours
alright, thank you ^^
I have a feeling I know the answer but say I want one of the starter (LA) but at lvl 5 can I still do that?
Should be doable. Won't be able to get it shiny or alpha at that level though. Afaik
Ok. If I want it shiny and alpha what lvl would it need to be?
If you have access to pkhex you can check on that. I'm at work so I can't check for you
I do not have pkhex since I don’t have a computer
i need some help
If I do .trade rowlet
Shiny Yes
Alpha Yes would that work?
@broken hound what’s up
some reason i cant get the trade on in bd even whaen i put in tehj code
Are you connected to the internet?
You're trying to get a shiny alpha Rowlet in BD?
yes do i go into global link code and no im not
Oh my bad. I misread.
its okay
What is the error it's giving you?
No worries. Takes a bit to learn. @broken hound
Can I do .trade rowlet? Or do I have to put all the information in
yeah im new to the server and been using the sword trade a lot
Should be able to just do .trade Rowlet but make sure you use caps in the right places the bot can be picky sometimes
I tried it and it worked, I just didn’t wanna keep bothering you while you are at work. Thank you tho
Np.
If it hadn’t worked, or you had more questions- feel free to keep asking; we’re pleased to help!
I really appreciate this entire discord. So helpful unlike a different one I was in
That sounds depressing; although I don’t have much to provide or most information that players need, I’ll still try and help whenever.
The other server I was in (won’t say it’s name) had a ditto bot and the admins where not helpful and would make fun if you messed up instead of trying to help. I got told to read the announcement about the bot and there wasn’t one
We’re all just trying to help here- but for now, let’s move to #659922221548044292 to continue further discussions!
What does .qs do for the bots
Shows your position in the queue
So I purchased the shiny lapras package how do I get access to the Pokemon Home account?
link patreon
^ follow those steps then in the pinned message in one of the patreon chats are the steps for the home account
okay just did @pliant prism
Ok, so in the tier 2 channel in the pinned messages theres steps for the home account
So I’m trying to make my friend join on his phone but when he clicks the check mark for verify it resets and the channels don’t show up. Does eny one know what to do?
@shrewd mirage what is the issue?
Is it that the Pokémon you are receiving is not shiny or that you are not receiving a Pokémon at all?
I’m not receiving any
Also I’ve got to go to bed its extremely late and I only was up this late cause I was waiting for my 4th time on a shiny so…
@silent hemlock can we deal with this tomorrow or not at all I’ll just wait longer
For the shiny I mean
Get some sleep @shrewd mirage we can find a solution tomorrow. Plenty of people will be on to help
When I try to connect to the internet it tell asks me to get an online subscription
Do I need one ?
Cause I'm trying to trade I've set the link code and waited for the message
And the bot can't find me
@small aspen yes to connect to the internet you’ll need the online subscription via your nintendo account
Otherwise there is no way for the bot or any other online interaction to find you.
how do put a pokemons form like a galarian or husian form
You add the region behind the pokemon species so it looks like this
.trade Moltres-Galar
Its important that the first letter of the region is capitalized or youll get the regular one. Its -Hisui and -Alola for the others
How do you change the level of the pokemon???
Add a line with Level: x (x = the level you want the pokemon to be)
It should look like this
.trade Garchomp
Level: 69
OK ty
If you want a specific held item make sure there is a gap between the @ and the item
Also to make it easier, you can also use Showdown for #swordshield-bot
@thick swan You were using the wrong bot. You requested an obvious swsh pokemon in #940357499297615902. Please make sure to read the channel name or the sticky message to prevent mistakes like this because doing it repeatedly will earn you the bot banned role. It doesn't matter that the mistake was 40min or so ago. Make sure it doesn't happen again
@royal dome Read the message I'm replying to since this applies for you as well. It does no harm to you if you watch the guide too tho
@unique yacht Read the channel name or at least the sticky message within the channels. You were requesting a Zeraora in #940357499297615902. Doing this repeatedly (requesting pokemon from swsh in pla) will earn you the bot banned role
Just asking, if I was banned from the bot, I would have the role yeah?
Yes, so you're currently not banned from the bot. You will see that you cant type in the bot channels as well as your name colour would be gray :)
@slow verge Read the channel name or at least the sticky message within the channels. You were requesting a Zeraora in #940357499297615902. Doing this repeatedly (requesting pokemon from swsh in pla) will earn you the bot banned role
So I want to get a shiny level 5 mudkip how would@I put that
Hello
@nimble swan how would I put it to get a level 5 shiny mudkip with the sword bot
.trade Mudkip
Shiny: Yes
Level: 5
Thank you
@obsidian berry First of all, Showdown isnt the proper formatting for #940357499297615902. Secondly, I saw you requesting this set in #swordshield-bot, so stop using the wrong bot. No matter if you want the Pokemon in swsh or pla, use the right one from the beginning
And last but not least, if you want Origin-Giratina in swsh, then it needs to hold the item Griseous Orb
Wait a second, you requested Mew...
Next time make sure to be in #swordshield-bot or you'll get the bot banned role if it happens repeatedly @earnest glade
@median quail The pokemon cant hold items in PLA also you need to add -Hisui for it to work
.trade Growlithe-Hisui
Ah wait, I saw your Hippowdon. No Showdown for #940357499297615902 because it will most likely fail. Watch the guide in the message Im replying to @median quail
@lavish cliff Marshadow is shiny locked and its not the only one being not obtainable legally as shiny. If you want to know which ones cant be shiny, look in the pins of #swordshield-bot, because there is a list with all
@median quail I told you that Pokemon in PLA cant hold items, so why are still requesting an held item? It makes no sense
Because i wnat ro evolve Growlithe
It wont work. You wont get the item with the bot. Its not possible
U dont nee sto das that 1m Times
Wrong, I do need to
i keep getting pokemon with no OT
Do you have an example of how the message you sent in the bot channels look? If so, then send it in here please, so I can see it
Hm ... then I dont know. My only guess was that you might wrote it wrong. For example OT:Benajmin or ot:
maybe bruh the bots here suck
You can go somewhere else and use them there then. Nobody forces you to use the bots here :)
@crude notch I already told you to stop using Showdown for #940357499297615902. Its not the proper format and you'll end up being bot banned if you keep on trying
Hey in pokeadventure how do I change my main Mon from my starter to something else?
With th guide that is shown on the message Im replying to
but thats legends of arceus not sowrd and shield
I cant find a command list, but /help should display all available commands. At least thats what the internet says
You can use Showdown for swsh but not Legends Arceus
And you were currently using the bot for Legends Arceus and not swsh
Yes ... make sure that this doesnt happen. The game for which the bot is used for is in the channel name as well as there is a sticky message :)
@sacred loom Flapple needs to be at least Level 32 to learn Grav Apple
So Gengar won’t give me my shiny Pokémon
Further explain that please. What exactly doesnt work?
I somehow can’t connect in time or something it’s really annoying
I put the code in immediately
I think it’s the BdSp Gengar bot
Because that’s it’s in game name for me
I dont think that it is that one, becasue this one is exclusive for Supporter like Patreon-Subscriber, Youtube-/Premium-Member. Nonetheless, I need to know. Did it worked in the past? So have you received at least one pokemon from the bot
Not in a few months I’ve returned after a while
Have you ever gotten a message where it says "Trade canceled: Suspicious Activity" or something similar?
Alright, you're blocked in the Y-Comm
Wth
The bot blocked you
So can I not do this anymore?
Its some sort of trade abuse monitoring. The message should only appear if you trade with two Discord accounts to one save file or one Discord account to two save files
Maybe there are more reasons, but I only know of those two. So someone "stole" your trade?
so someone technically "Stole" your trade
Yes
Thats the problem then, this probably caused the "Suspicious Activity" message and then the Y-Comm block so you cant find the bot anymore
That is what blocked you on the Y-Com
Can I be unblocked?
I myself don't know about that
Dang it
The suspicious activity error should resolve itself after approx. 2 hours.
It’s been over 12 hours
Yeah, that didnt work with others too tho. They are permanently blocked in the Y-Comm
Specifically with that message?
@maiden tree If you want hisuian variants (since the regualrs arent available in the game) just add -Hisui behind it so it looks like this
.trade Growlithe-Hisui
Its important that the H of Hisui is capitalized
How can I ask for a Galarian Articuno
In the gengar bot
I wrote .trade glarian Articuno and it didn’t work
Mm so, I got the suspicious activity error again. I got it last night and just decided to try again the next day. I don't have multiple discord accounts and Im not trading to multiple save files, and I made sure to be extra careful this time so no one else tries using the same link code before me. Idk what to do 🤷♂️ I'm just trying to get a Zeraora bc I never got it in the events for swsh and its a pokemon i like
.trade Articuno-Galar
did you get the error NoTrainerFound?
Nope, just suspicious activity
that’s weird if you really aren’t using two save files/discord accounts. if someone didn’t coincidentally join your trade with the same link code, then i’m not sure.
you can refer to the recent pinned message in this channel for more info
okay, thank you ^^
is blane’s charizard better than the regular base set charizard card
yea im not rly sure what ive done wrong. i guess ill wait 2 hours and try again but hopefully it doesnt happen again
Im not into tcg but if Base Set Charizard is the first edition one from 1999, then this should be worth more. Nonetheless this is a channel for server related questions only and the person who told you to ask in here was misleading you
What's going on with the Gengar Bot?
Everytime I put in the trade for a Ralts, it doesn't go through and it cancels for no reason. I was connected to the internet, and I put in the right code but it still didn't work
How can I change the name of the original trainer of the pokemon?
Did you ever get a trade cancelled message due to suspicious activity from the bot?
Add a line with OT: before the moveset
For example
.trade Garchomp
OT: Duff
oh thx
It just says "Oops something happened, trade cancelled"
even the first message where it started that you cant find the bot?
Yeah
The last time it successfully traded was when I got a shiny Steenee. And that was 7 turns ago
There is still this possibility, if its not worked well before. The only thing I can say is to stand in a Pokemon Center when searching, if you're not blocked in the Y-Comm
I don't know what I did to get possibly blocked. But ok
You can use the link in the pins to see the list if things you may have done. But it also might be just a bad internet signal, the thing with the Pokemon Center etc.
what's wrong with the gengar bot it's the second time now he cancelled a trade with me. I typed his code in and waited but nothing happened
How in the world do I get a hisuian Zorua/Zoroark on sword and shield
Noted I appreciate the help
@swift comet I already told you today to stop using Showdown for #940357499297615902. If you want to know how to use the bot, watche the guide
@sudden stag You need to add the command .trade in front of the Showdown paste, so it looks like this
.trade Zacian @ Rusted Sword
Ability: Intrepid Sword
Shiny: Yes
EVs: 252 Atk / 92 Def / 164 Spe
Lonely Nature
- Close Combat
- Moonblast
- Dig
@sick path If you want to cancel your trade, do .qc
would obtaining the caped zarude be impossible with the bot now or not and if i can how do i
Its not impossible, its just not possible as shiny
I think its .trade Zarude-Dada
ok ill try it
@winged warren and @plush raptor You both forgot to put the command .trade in front of the Showdown paste. This is how it should look like (as an example)
.trade Garchomp
He's bot banned so watching the guide wont help him😉
How'd they get bot banned?
By not using #940357499297615902 properly and ignoring me telling him that the Showdown format isnt the proper format for it
No, it was not and it's permanent
It was your mistake using Showdown even tho you've been told twice, by me, to stop using it and watch the guide
Alright, no Showdown for #940357499297615902
And Im from Germany
I do not understand English well
I didn't read you at that time
right now i'm using the translator
Look, I pinged you. Twice. And you decided to ignore that. You could have translated it with Google or ask me what I mean because you dont understand englisch very well
I cant, because I dont have the powers to do that
My bad sorry about that
Its all good :)
How can I get unbanned then? It was accidental
Every staff member
I don't think the ban is permanent right?
In most cases it is
I don't understand it, until now I used showdown and there was no problem before
what...
can you help me man? @unique cairn
i dont understand you

If really want i can get the pokemon and trade them to you
really man?
Yea
@winged warren You were using the wrong bot. You requested an obvious swsh pokemon in #940357499297615902. Please make sure to read the channel name or the sticky message to prevent mistakes like this because doing it repeatedly will earn you the bot banned role
@eager island Melmetal cant be shiny and gmax since the only way to obtain Gmax Melmetal was through an event so you have to pick if you want it either to be Shiny OR Gmax :)
But I don't got legends Arceus I got shield
I don't got arcues
What's going on?
Exactly, what Duff is explaining is that you’re using the wrong channel.
Use #swordshield-bot
^^
But every time I use the other one it says switch to arcues
That’s just a sticky message to let others know, what channels you should be using.
Oh ok
It says do that if you're getting a pokemon for arceus
Both #940357499297615902 and #swordshield-bot have it
#940357499297615902 says if u want a swsh pokemon go to #swordshield-bot, #swordshield-bot says if u want a pla pokemon go to #940357499297615902
Do we need a link code or no
For a trade yes.
To do what?
There are full YouTube guides that would really be beneficial to watch. They have very good info on how to avoid errors.
How do we get that code
@winged warren the bot will pm it
No
?guide
can you send what you sent to bot?
The guide makes it so simple.
@elfin cobalt Its only possible to have 510 EVs in total. So you cant give every stat 252 EVs
@inner ermine Fused pokemon cant be traded, you need to request them separately and fuse them ingame with the maguired item
@inner ermine also used showdown
Should this work guys
.trade rowlet
Level: 10
Shiny: Yes
Because it keeps giving me lvl 100
In order for one to be shiny, it needs to be at a higher level probably, whatever level they are normally found in the distortion things. The starter at the beginning is shiny locked
Think.it appears lv 35-38 normally
In pokemon sword
Oh thought it was Arceus lol my bad.
i think I might have been banned, bc i tried again for zeraora and got the no trainer found. i dont know what ive done wrong at all
this time i made sure i was in a pokemon center and typed in the code when the initilizing message showed up. like i mentioned previous, i dont have any other discord accounts, and im not trading to other save files. so idk. may i get unbanned?
my IGN is just Finn btw ^^
i haven't had any issues previously, ive just been using the bot so i can get sword exclusive pokemon, since i only have shield. and i wanted zeraora bc i never got it in the event so yeah 😅
@frozen prawn read the message I am replying to^
If you were banned you’d have the role @rotund swan
That’s if one of the admins banned them from the bot
then i guess im not, but idk whats causing my issues at all
im just using the bot like everyone else so hm
Not if there banned on the ycomm
Ahhh okay
thats what i was thinking, yeah
which sucks bc i dont think i did anything wrong
@rotund swan all legendary/mythical Pokémon are shiny locked in arceus still the only way to get them shiny in the game is through Pokémon home
.trade rowlet
Level:12
Shiny: Yes
That's exactly what I put so now I need to see what I get @rotund swan
Oh sorry how am I supposed do it again I'm rlly sorry
It’s right here in the message I am replying to
so how would i get unblocked on the y-comm? esp since i havent done anything wrong
Above shiny:yes?
Wait can you send a file to gengar bots and get all the Pokémon in the file?
Would it be
.trade rowlet
Shiny: Yes
Level:12
No it’s level then shiny
No matter what the bot will only give you one Pokémon per trade
oh alr
Just check the pins bud
Pretty sure I made a little something a month or so ago, it should be pinned in this channel @remote hinge
Try checking that out, might help and solve your issue
Mhm
which is a low chance the fact how many Pokémon there are
Level 12 wouldn’t make sense, since outbreaks tend to have a large level of Pokémon that spawns
^yeah most outbreaks are like level 30+
Sorry for not sayin I was talking about pokemon sword
the alolan diglett quest are shiny locked also
@rotund swan is that right for pokemon sword
Getting set up at work currently. I’ll check back in in a few mins if you haven’t been helped yet. For Sword I’d highly recommend using showdown @remote hinge it makes the format very simple so you can copy and paste.
I don't if I'm going to to sound or not but what's showdown
Pokemon Showdown is a battle simulator for Pokemon, but its Teambuilder function can be used to request Pokemon for #swordshield-bot
is there anywhere i can submit a ticket or anyone i can dm for help with my bot issues bc i dont rly wanna be banned since i didnt do anything wrong ^^'
I mean, if its a problem with the bot then here's probably the right place
ive tried asking my questions but i feel like im not getting responses, so i thought it might be better if i could dm someone directly
Let me see in the chat what your question is. It also might have been overseen if a few people ask questions in a short amount of time
ill just send what i was gonna send a mod
Did you watch the video guide?
Last night, I wanted to trade the bot for a Zeraora, since I never got it in the 2020 event for SWSH and it's a pokemon I like. I ended up getting the suspicious activity error, so I decided to wait until today and try again. I did and got the same error, waited again and this time got the no trainer found, which leads me to believe I might be banned on the Y-comm. I made sure I was in a Pokemon Center upon trading and typed in the link code when I got the initializing trade message.
This is the only discord account I have, and I have not been trading to multiple save files, so I'm not exactly sure what I have done wrong. I read through the file that was pinned in the questions channel as well. Hopefully I can get some help on this ^^' my IGN is just "Finn"
mhm ^^
Follow these steps. Step by step
If you follow this guide you will succeed.
I did already watch this 😅 I still dont understand what im doing to be banned on ycomm
Yikes, the suspicious activity error. Its just a guess from my side but I think, even if it might not be intended, you end up getting blocked in the Y-Comm from the bot instead of the classical 2h cooldown if its a different reason than using two Discord accounts to trade to one save file
yeah, i just dont understand how, i dont think the trade was interrupted by another person so i dont really know whats causing this
@rotund swan open a ticket and ask them directly.
alright 😅 i hope he can help me out then, i tried dming him but discord wouldnt let me, probably bc of privacy settings which is fine
how do i do that? i asked if i could open a ticket shfebscbbs
#816389595246886942 if you want to open a ticket
thank you ^^
@kind root Ahem -.- I told you a minute before that you shouldn't use Showdown and you still did it again
whats showdown
Pokemon Showdown is a battle simulator for Pokemon, but its Teambuilder function can also be used to request Pokemon for #swordshield-bot
ah ty
What does this mean
In your case it means that you had one .trade to much xD
Try that
.trade Scizor (M)
Ability: Light Metal
Level: 68
Shiny: Yes
EVs: 136 HP / 80 Atk / 76 Def / 72 SpA / 72 SpD / 68 Spe
Naughty Nature
- Fury Cutter
- Bullet Punch
- Protect
- Double-Edge
Also if Im not wrong then it shows up when your message has type flaws like a wrong spelled Pokemon species or anything else
Ok thanks
How do you set a pokemon for a specific form like husian or galarian and alolan
Add -Hisui, -Galar or -Alola behind the pokemon species. First letter needs to be capitalized or otherwise you'll get the normal form/it will fail (only applies to PLA since the classic ones arent in the game from all hisuian variants)
@steel ferry Fused pokemon cant be traded, you sadly have to request both separately and fuse them ingame with the maguired item
@barren dune
I got a couple questions regarding the bot that does the trading. Can I choose what level the Pokemon come at? Also will all the regular stats still be maxed out etc? I figure they won't if I want one at a lower level, also can I choose if I want them to be male or female?
Indeedee
what game are you referring to?
Arceus lol sorry I should have specified
Indeedee female
What is pkhex? And where can I find the guide good sir
Pinned messages in the bot channel @deep finch
Okay I appreciate it I'll try to find the pinned messages lol I'm not very familiar with using discord 😂
@deep finch
so is the bot down or is that just me
alright thanks
Hmm lapras looks down
im hitting copy and enter on swordshield lapras but nothing is happing
same for gengar but thats on my screen
idk if its all
wont you get introuble for pinging the owner tho
is that also for me?
Overly pinging, yes.
k
sorry i asked this b4 but how do i get the codes for pokemonhome..not so good with computers and all of that
ok thanks
Check the pinned messages for login @frozen prawn
@plucky fulcrum , you’d need to re-input your place
How do dat*
Once the bot is back online, re-enter your request:
.trade Pikachu
But do we hae to wait again tho
yes
Yes
Just be on the lookout, it’s first comes first serve on spots!
This is the most awkward time to do this, but it’s whatever!

@frozen prawn
ok thanks

hello
umm
i asked for at shiny zacian hold let me show my request
.trade Zacian-Crowned @ Rusted Sword Ability: Intrepid Sword Shiny: Yes EVs: 252 HP / 252 Atk / 4 Def Gentle Nature - Moonblast - Behemoth Blade - Close Combat - Crunch
and it was not what i asked but im not trying to be greedy but its not what i asked for
how was it not what you wanted exactly?
it happend again
i asked for same thing and it is still not it
i keep getting a reguler one
darn
Best bet when you see things aren’t working is to check the rules or info surrounding the bot. Pinned messages usually contain a lot of info.
Ok dumb question what am I doing wrong keeps saying out of range
.trade hisui zorua
Alpha: yes
Shiny: yes
Level: 30
Is what I'm putting and wording it
O ok
.trade Gyrados
Shiny: Yes
Alpha: Yes
Level: 100
-Aqua Tail
-Hurricane
-Crunch
what wrong?
said index out of range
no moves moves make gengar angry
ok
and you don’t have to add the level line iirc since all pokémon are generated at 100 normally
Ive been trying to get a gastrodon in the swsh gengar and its not finding me when I put in the correct code, it didnt find me
It couldn’t find me either
@static blaze think I spelt Gyrados wrong
I BEAT THE SYSTEM @static blaze
oops yeah! it’s gyarados 😆 sorry i don’t have my glasses on
@static blaze
?
i beat the system
that’s good i guess haha. i could’ve just told you to get one without the shield/sword or behemoth move and then add the shield/sword as a held item on another pokémon lol
oh no i did not do that
i made it none crowned
/but with the rusted sword
i did that
/and it worked
big brain
good job !
im still getting my butt beaten in battles tho
(im doing one rn)
now ima do zamazenta
I keep trying to get a Kingler and the swsh gengar bot isn’t accepting my trade code thing even when I put it in correctly. Is this just a problem that most people are have issues with???
How are you formatting it
How do you cancel a trade
What channel do I use the shiny generator in?
Nevermind I've found it
Not sure how to use the bot though 😅
?guide
top link is a guide for sword/shield, bottom link is for legends arceus
.qc
Thank you
Okay
How to I change the level of the Pokémon bc all of them is level 100 and I can’t use it
Okay
How do I request it because idk how
I need the Pokémon to be level 41
Check the pins bud
@candid grove there is a full guide on how each bot works both of which show how to change level.
Why am I not getting my trades
@steel ferry are you waiting for the time it told you?
Yes
It adds you to a queue. It isn’t instant.
I know but it always says Trainer not found
Are you connected to the internet?
Yes
Hey is Decidueye in legends arceus?
What do I type for the bot to understand that I want a aloalan ninetales
I'm confused about the PLA gengar trade bot. If anyone might could help me out, I'd appreciate it.
What kinda help you looking for?
I'm wanting to trade in a shiny alpha zorua, but I'm unsure of how to type it in correctly.
Hey can you also help me after your done to try and get a alolan ninetales
Either Ninetales-Alola or Ninetales-Alolan, I forget which
Ok thanks
.trade Zorua-Hisui
Shiny: Yes
Alpha: Yes
Make sure you use proper caps and spacing and whatnot like I did. The bot can be picky with that stuff
Thank you so much. I felt like I was trying to solve a Cypher of some sort. 😅
Thank you again ^^
@copper steeple .trade Arcanine-Hisui
Shiny: Yes
Alpha: Yes
hey does the Swsh gengar bot stop working at certain time or something
Is there a Link
It crashed
ohh rip
@unique cairn sorry for ping but sword and shield gengar is down^
do you know when it will be back up?
oh alright, is there anyway you could ping me when it comes back
okay thnx!
@covert crane sorry for ping but mind locking #swordshield-bot ^
It’s currently down (ty)
okay thank youu
hey if i want to do the trading bot thing do i have to have nintendo plus or whatever to do it
Yes you need Nintendo online to trade with the bots
Isudhdbrbrhjeieur thanks
Np
Do you think itd be worth using my free trial for it @minor tiger
I mean you can get any Pokémon that’s in the game shiny except for shiny locked Pokémon of course
So it’s up to you really
Is there a limit for how many times I can use it?
Thanks for the help
Np
is switch online required for the gengar bot to work? i keep queuing for a vulpix and it isn't working for me
It is required
On the gengar bot what does it mean by "index was out of range
it just means you entered the command wrong. try adding a space between the @ and Master Ball
it happens sometimes! just go back into the queue. you can also make a custom trade code by doing .trade 12345678 Eevee etc
@glass cipher ^
Ok thanks
How do I get a A gigantamax Pokémon
Thanks
iirc just add it to the end of the name. example: .Trade Lapras-Gmax
Either that or it'd be
.trade Lapras
Gmax: Yes
I forget which it is
Okay thank you
If I wanted a galarian zapdos would I just put zapdos or galarian zapdos
Zapdos-Galar iirc
Thanks
Can someone help me do lines cuz I’m on mobile
I need trade next line is shiny then next line is level
omg I get now why the gengar bot wouldn't trade with me, I forgot to turn the online connection on I had the local connection on 🤦🏻♂️
That would do it! @neon pier
I wasted 3 days of my free nintendo switch online thing
Glad you got it worked out.
Alright thank you :)
thank you
YES it finally worked 😁
Awesome.
@rotund swan You basically did everything wrong that could be done wrong and because Id take to much time explaining everything that is wrong with that, just do yourself and me the favour and use validate on Showdown. The best format is [Gen 8 SWSH] Anything Goes. On top of that make sure you're not using #940357499297615902 when you want to get Pokemon in #swordshield-bot. Doing this repeatedly will earn you the bot banned role
?validate
@torpid star You were using the wrong bot. You requested an obvious swsh pokemon in #940357499297615902. Please make sure to read the channel name or the sticky message to prevent mistakes like this because doing it repeatedly will earn you the bot banned role
ok bet
is arceus tradable?
Yes :)
thank you for info have a great day
Thanks, I hope you have one too ^^
@ornate helm First of all, stop requesting Pokemon from swsh in #940357499297615902. I saw you deleting it once and also dont use Showdown for #940357499297615902. Watch the guide 2 messages above this one
Thank you this was actually very informative best bots I’ve seen by far
@drifting ginkgo To be able to use the bot, you have to use the English names of the pokemon and not the German ones. In case you want it to be German, because you wilk receive it as an English one, you can add a line with Language: German
So it looks like this
.trade Swampert
Shiny: Yes
Language: German
@drifting ginkgo You were using the wrong bot. You requested an obvious swsh pokemon in #940357499297615902. Please make sure to read the channel name or the sticky message to prevent mistakes like this because doing it repeatedly will earn you the bot banned role
He still hasn’t learned?
He did, but he used the wrong channel now ...
is there anything wrong with this marshadow? I validated it for sword and shield, used the right channel, and It said “Couldn’t create a marshadow from that set (Exhausted 0/40 possible encounters)
This is the marshadow:
Marshadow @ Life Orb
Ability: Technician
Ball: Safari Ball
OT: Declan
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 Def / 252 Spe
Naive Nature
- Shadow Sneak
- Close Combat
- Spectral Thief
- Rock Tomb
oh isnt it because safari ball wouldn’t work for it?
Its probably the ball since Marshadow is an event exclusive mon
Oh and your OT wont work too. I dont think it makes the trade not possible but it wont have your OT when you receive it
alr Ill do it anyways just for fun
You dont have to pick a ball, it will automatically choose the Cherish Ball since it cant be in any other ball
Yw ^^
sadly I just activated the 10 min slowmode before realizing the problem :(
@north basalt Mate, you're using the wrong bot xD Head over to #763131979565629510
Nvm you found it already lol
Someone stole my pokemon trade
@steel ferry what’s your question
How did someone steal my trade
Someone could’ve received the same code, someone could’ve guessed the code.
Just queue up again.
Also is gengar for sword or shield
#940357499297615902 is for legends
#swordshield-bot is for sword & shield
@Mr.Jobug#4156
You can set up your own code to make it more unlikely to happen, just write an 8 digit number before the Pokemon species
For example:
.trade 12346789 Garchomp
@olive ice Melmetal cant be Shiny and Gmax. You can either have a Gmax Melmetal or a shiny Melmetal but not a shiny Gmax Melmetal because the only way to get Gmax Melmetal was through an event where it wasnt able to be shiny
I keep getting the no trainer found error can someone help me figure hot to fix this i wasn't able to get shinies for the past 57 attempts
Are you connected to the internet
will we get the gengar bot for scarlet and violet?
I’ll let staff answer that one 
We don’t know, it simply depends on if the sysbot developers will make a trade bot for that game
@rich estuary In case it worked in the past and its not you who didnt activate the internet via Y-Comm and searches only local
@coarse lance You were using the wrong bot. You requested an obvious swsh pokemon in #940357499297615902. Please make sure to read the channel name or the sticky message to prevent mistakes like this because doing it repeatedly will earn you the bot banned role
@nimble swan can I appeal this ban because my sister @clever lily was also using the bot to generate shinies on to my account then go into pokemon home to get it to her account I just have found this out. due to this case I might have been ip banned also sadly making it so I can never use the bot again if I can appeal this
So your sister, the account that you @, was using the bot and the bot traded it to your pokemon save file? Did I get that right?
Because if that is the case, that is similar to using two Discord accounts for one save file and I think even if the automated Y-Comm ban from the Trade Abuse Monitoring was removable, then it wont get removed
@rich estuary
@regal kernel You were using the wrong bot. You requested an obvious swsh pokemon in #940357499297615902. Please make sure to read the channel name or the sticky message to prevent mistakes like this because doing it repeatedly will earn you the bot banned role
wait for the bot im trying to get mint alcremie and idk how to chose a specific form of alcremie does enyone know how?
swsh gengar bot
Does Alcremie sweet matter for you? Because you can choose on Showdown which swirl it should have but sweets is only Strawberry
Theres the option where you can choose between the swirls
ok
I keep getting the no trainer found error can someone help me figure hot to fix this i wasn't able to get shinies for the past 78 attempts
Did it work in the past? Like have you ever managed to trade with the bot and receive your requested pokemon?
Yes
Then you're probably blocked from the Y-Comm and cant connect to the bot since you wont be able to find it. More information are in the message Im replying to @vale comet
Then how do I get the bot to trade me
Well, the message I wrote the last time works for this too, so here is it again: You dont
As long as you're banned in the Y-Comm you wont be able to trade with the bot
Did you delete the message on your own?
No
I see
So the solution is to make another account
@neon heron Im unsure what you're doing. Do you want to use the bot for PLA or dont? You requested two Pokemon that are not in PLA but I dont think that you want to use the bot for swsh. I think you dont know which Pokemon are in the game and if thats the case, then please look them up, because you might get bot banned
No comment
So a make another account or not
Ok Ty

So if a make another account then it will cancel the trade
Yes and you'll get banned if a staff member finds out which one your new account is
