[abstract lily]

[abstract lily]

Oh ok thx

[lavish herald]

^

[abstract lily]

Why can’t I go to swordshield-gengar

?

Hey @unique cairn why can’t I go to swordshield-gengar

Oh ok sorry

Ok thx

[nimble swan]

@thorny ingot You cant use the bots due to the role you were given. Also please delete your message in #✨shiny-flex. It doesnt belong in there

[thorny ingot]

Alright

@nimble swan how can I get it back so I can use it again then?

@nimble swan so I can never use it again then basically

[nimble swan]

It seems so

[thorny ingot]

:(

[nimble swan]

I knows its poopy but you should have used them properly. At least thats why I think that you got the role :(

[thorny ingot]

I did I just got a few shinies on Pokémon shield

[nimble swan]

But you also used #940357499297615902 for swsh pokemon and tried to get shinylocked pokemon as shiny

[rotund swan]

You’ve been requesting multiple illegal pokemon in the sword shield gengar channel and using the pokemon showdown format for legends-arceus when you aren’t supposed to be

[thorny ingot]

@rotund swan well I didn't know that they were illegal i didn't mean to can't you just add me back I won't do it again

[nimble swan]

You still tried to get a Melmetal, Aggron, Zeraora and a Volcanion in #940357499297615902

[rotund swan]

Yeah I’m sorry it’s permanent, there’s too many offenses

[thorny ingot]

@nimble swan that was at the start when I only just joined I didn't know there was a separate one for sword shield

[rotund swan]

That’s why this channel exists… if you aren’t sure of something you should’ve asked

[thorny ingot]

@rotund swan I know I'm sorry for the time you wasted talking to me I just enjoyed the feeling of getting Pokémon that I didn't know I could get

@rotund swan I'm sorry-

[thorny ingot]

Yh I saw that hours later after I used it

[nimble swan]

It definitely will be a waste of time if you do it directly after you got banned. I dont know if there's any chance to get it back but if there is then definitely not 2h after the ban

[thorny ingot]

Well I might still try because I didn't know and I also didn't know about this chat about questions

I'm not sure, I just want my role back and I feel really bad about wasting both of your time I just really wanted more shinys and it was just fun to get any Pokémon

Alright thanks I will still try and talk to him but thank you for the information and recommendations I hope you have a good day

[nimble swan]

You're welcome and I wish you a good day too ^^

[thorny ingot]

@unique cairn I didn't mean to bother them I apologized

Sorry.. and I can't become a patron I can't afford it I'm busy enough

[rotund swan]

I'm sorry but uhm how do you initiate a trade for legends arceus? Does it work the same as for sword and shield?

[static blaze]

yeah it would just be .trade zorua or something

but if you want to customize it i do think you should watch the video to make sure it’s correct

[rotund swan]

Oh oki. Because I copied data from showdown and it wouldn't let me put it in for the trade

[static blaze]

yeah. showdown is the wrong format

[rotund swan]

Oh. Which one is the correct one?

[lavish herald]

?guide

watch the second video for the format

or you can use pkhex

[rotund swan]

Oh ok! Thanks a ton!

[lavish herald]

no problem

[whole plover]

is there a way where i can get a 6iv ditto with non hyper trained stats?

[nimble swan]

@full gyro

[full gyro]

hiii

wait, can we do the pokémon i was just talking about???

[nimble swan]

You see the message I'm replying to? The first link will lead you to a video guide for swsh

[full gyro]

oh oh!

[nimble swan]

The bots can make every pokemon that are LEGAL

[full gyro]

what’s an illegal pokémon?

[nimble swan]

Pokemon that doesn't exist in the game like Arceus for swsh or shinylocked pokemon like Eternatus

[wise shadow]

or zacian

[nimble swan]

Huh?

[wise shadow]

it doesn't exist in arceus

or you saying pokemon that are from arceus into swsh

[nimble swan]

Oh, that's what you mean haha

Nah I mean the pokemon Arceus

Not the game lol

[wise shadow]

ah ok

[nimble swan]

Anyways to make sure if you're pokemon is legal, you can use validate on pokemon showdown @full gyro

?validate

@full gyro The message I'm replying to, click on the first linkt

[full gyro]

did i break the bot

OH LOL

[lyric wigeon]

How do you give Pokémon moves?

[rotund swan]

[rotund swan]

[rotund swan]

[soft scroll]

Is it possible to get foren pokemon from #swordshield-bot

[lavish herald]

i’m not sure if you can anymore but try Language: French

like after shiny

[soft scroll]

I need a foren ditto for shiny hunting

[lavish herald]

.trade ditto
Language: French
Shiny: Yes

what language will do is it’ll change where it’s from

[wind gull]

what happens if i try to get an illegal pokémon

does anyone know?

[lavish herald]

you don’t get it and if you try too many times you’ll get bot banned

[wind gull]

ok

[obtuse sigil]

Quick question are you able to get alpha from the trade bot for pla

Been hunting alpha eevees to complete alpha set

[lavish herald]

yes you can just do

.trade Eevee
Alpha: Yes

[viscid kettle]

[lavish herald]

yeah you need patreon

[obtuse sigil]

What about shiny alpha?

[lavish herald]

.trade Eevee
Alpha: Yes
Shiny: Yes

[obtuse sigil]

Oh makes sense 👍

[lavish herald]

[lavish herald]

https://play.pokemonshowdown.com/teambuilder

help with what part?

[static blaze]

?guide

watch the video to whichever game you are wanting to use

[pulsar hill]

How do I cancel trade?

[static blaze]

.qc

[pulsar hill]

I am on cooldown

[static blaze]

you just have to wait, it’s to prevent any spamming:)

[high trail]

Is there a Pokémon go gang bot?

Gengar

[lavish herald]

no :(

[high trail]

That would be fun if there was one

[pulsar hill]

when I reqested giratina for sword and shield it said that I needed to do legends when it's also is sword and shield

[static blaze]

oh that’s just a sticky message telling everyone who uses the bot that there’s a separate channel for legends! you also need to add .trade before “big boy” :)

[pulsar hill]

oh sorry forgot about that thanks!

[lavish herald]

@rotund swan please you pokémon showdown for #swordshield-bot

[rotund swan]

@lavish herald wym showdown

[lavish herald]

?guide

use thé top vidéo for référence

[rotund swan]

Ok

[hoary gull]

Is there a way to customize of a pokemon has pokerus or not in the gengarbot?

[true gate]

Hi I have a question

Is there any way I can switch bots

[static blaze]

yeah you’ll just use either #swordshield-bot or #940357499297615902 ! otherwise if you mean the lapras bots that is a subscription based channel

[true gate]

Oh I need to use trade for bdsp

[potent dome]

how come i cant connect online on arceus?

[true gate]

Do you have Nintendo online?

[static blaze]

make sure that your online subscription is still valid

[potent dome]

no i dont

im using yuzu emulator

[static blaze]

bdsp is a subscription channel unfortunately

[potent dome]

ohh..

[true gate]

Oh ok thank you for your help

[potent dome]

wait so i need to have a subscription to go online?

hmm, so once i pay for membership, i can still get any pokemon even if i use an emulator?

[static blaze]

i can’t guarantee that at all, but maybe someone else can confirm or deny if they’ve tried it

[pliant prism]

you cant play online officially on an emulator

which means you cant use the bot on an emulator

[hoary gull]

Does anyone know how to get Pokerus on a pokemon in the SWSH gengar bot?

[hoary gull]

If so, reply to this.

[lavish herald]

I think pkhex

if you have a pc

[hoary gull]

I am on one.

[idle pilot]

Are you able to get shiny legendaries in arceus now and if so how do you get them?

[lavish herald]

i’m pretty sure the only way is transferring from bdsp

[idle pilot]

Thank you

[lavish herald]

no problem

[fickle chasm]

the trade wont go threw in sword i put the code in and i never get the trade

[pliant prism]

make sure you are connected to the internet in the ycomm
be in a pokemon center
enter the code before its your turn to trade

[nocturne marten]

hello, im new, how do i get all these cool pokemons?

[silent hemlock]

Welcome Explorer!
What game(s) are you playing?

[nocturne marten]

pokemon shield

[halcyon panther]

That yellow thing is the one I got traded and I just wanna give it back ;^;

[silent hemlock]

Then trade it away/ release it if you don’t want it… nobody is forcing you to keep it!

[halcyon panther]

Bye bye beloved dscrd.gg/bdsp,

You were not loved

[nocturne marten]

Will i get banned for holding the pokemons or battling online with them?

[silent hemlock]

No and no.
The bot will not generate any illegal or illegitimate pokemon.

[halcyon panther]

There’s illegal Pokémon?

[silent hemlock]

Yes

Pokémon with hacked in movesets, abilities, items or shiny values.

[nocturne marten]

but that yellow pokemon is all that, am i right?

[silent hemlock]

Nope.

That Pokémon is legitimately obtainable in game without hacking.

[nocturne marten]

Ok then

[silent hemlock]

@nocturne marten there are also pins in #swordshield-bot that are pretty helpful regarding what Pokémon can’t be requested and some extra information about the requests themselves. I recommend checking them out.

[proud valve]

It won’t let me trade

It tells me to go to general chat

🫤

[silent hemlock]

Looks like you were repeatedly trying to use showdown format in #940357499297615902 / requesting Pokémon that aren’t in that game.
That’s why you’ve been banned.

[past thorn]

Lol I put in a trade link code and it matched me with a random person how did that happen? I'm so confused

[nimble swan]

Seems like someone else used the same code as you

[rotund swan]

Is there a way I can make myself the ot

[obtuse sigil]

I currently don’t have a computer is there a command that will guarantee that I could obtain an alpha shiny eevee

I have tried the
.trade Eevee
Alpha: Yes
Shiny: Yes
But since I don’t have a computer to fully select what I am looking for I am unable to obtain one

[nimble swan]

Yes, there is. Add a line with OT: to message (has to be before the moveset)
For example:
.trade Cinderace
Shiny: Yes
OT: Duff

[vagrant otter]

i try to trade but it does not work

[tawny sand]

Wait for bdsp does dialga respawn after you ko it during the whole team galactic thing?

Cause I was looking it up and I’m not to sure because it made me even more confused

But I’ve a lot of videos saying it can after you beat cynthia

[tawny sand]

So it for legends? If so you might have to put .convert

[nimble swan]

It should respawn after every time you beat Cynthia (also for the future, this channel is for server related questions :) )

[magic canopy]

Does anyone know why slow mode is enabled on every chat?

Or is there no reason?

[tawny sand]

Oh I’m so sorry thanks for letting me know and stuff

[magic canopy]

Is slow mode enabled so people can't constantly get Pokemon?

[nimble swan]

Depends, if you're talking about #940357499297615902 and #swordshield-bot then its probably so the bot doesnt crash due to spam or something similar

[lavish herald]

to prevent spam and it’s not in every chat just the bots

and like irl and here

[magic canopy]

Thanks! 🙂

[nimble swan]

If you mean channels like #685625327464218646, #tcg and #✨shiny-flex then probably because it's not meant to have a conversation in them

[magic canopy]

You know, you guys are really nice.

[nimble swan]

No problem ^^ Now you know :)

[hollow flower]

I do believe the swsh lapras bot is down

[nimble swan]

What was the message that you sent in the gengar channels? You probably deleted it that's why I cant see what you typed and also what is wrong

[lavish herald]

@unique cairn bot down

[hollow flower]

I didn’t know if I should ping thank you :)

[lavish herald]

no problem he wants you to ping if a bot is down now

[magic canopy]

Also, can someone tell me all the things you need to type to get a pokemon in trade? I'm quite new.

[nimble swan]

?guide

[magic canopy]

Thanks.

[nimble swan]

First link swsh, sceond for pla

And you're welcome ;)

[hollow flower]

I gotta agree with the other guy y’all really the nicest mods I’ve seen

[lavish herald]

haha we’re not even mods we’re just trying to help

[hollow flower]

Oh well either way, thanks for it. We appreciate it bro

[zealous oasis]

I tried to reply to someone on the bdsp channle and it keeps on disappearing once I send it?

[nimble swan]

Did you say b.o.t?

Just without the . ins between

[zealous oasis]

No I said was
"You have to go to the bottom part of the Pokemon Center"

[nimble swan]

King Ed probably knows the answer, because I dont. Sorry :)

[zealous oasis]

Ah thank you anyways😊

[magic canopy]

So do the trades ACTUALLY work?

[nimble swan]

It's the word Bottom haha

[zealous oasis]

Oh 😂

[magic canopy]

If they do, that's crazy!

[nimble swan]

I assume because there's b.o.t in it, but it's just a guess

[zealous oasis]

The b.o.ts are you talking about?

[rotund swan]

Yeah honestly i got no clue, i’m assuming u can’t say bots in that chat because you aren’t supposed to talk about it there

[nimble swan]

They do, I used it a lot and never had any problems or at least problems that weren't because my fault

[magic canopy]

Wow!

That's amazing!

[zealous oasis]

They work wonders

[magic canopy]

So, I'm really getting a shiny eevee?

[zealous oasis]

Yes

[magic canopy]

O _ O

[zealous oasis]

If you want you can watch the guide on how to use them

?guide

[magic canopy]

I know.

[nimble swan]

Also just to prevent it, the time the bot tells you in dms is just estimated. Means it's not accurate and will probably take longer

[magic canopy]

Ok.

[lavish herald]

and put the code in before it’s your turn to ensure that you get ur mon

[magic canopy]

I did.

[zealous oasis]

Make sure not to take long when putting in the code

[magic canopy]

I think I did it ten minutes ago.

[vagrant otter]

when do you put the code when it says initializing trade or im waiting for you?

[rotund swan]

i recommend when it says initializing

[lavish herald]

^^^

[vagrant otter]

ok

How do these generators work?

Does my internet have to be good?

[rotund swan]

not really, as long as you can connect online

[vagrant otter]

ok

i can be in any region right?

[rotund swan]

ya

[vagrant otter]

[red flax]

[nimble swan]

[red flax]

Nvm

WAIT MONFERNO ISNT IN SWORD AND SHIELD??

[nimble swan]

But what is with your pokemon?

Ooooooh

[red flax]

BRUHHHH

Thats so sad

My baby chimmy 😭

[nimble swan]

There is a list with all the pokemon not in swsh in the pins of this channel

[zealous oasis]

Yeah monferno isn't in swsh

[red flax]

Bro i dont want cinderance i wanted infernape

[nimble swan]

But sadly you cant :(

[nimble swan]

Just to be sure, there isn't any problem with a trade being cancelled, right? It's just the attempt of getting a pokemon which isn't in swsh

[red flax]

No problems

The only problem is chimchar not being in swsh

Its ok ill get tyhplosion

NOOOOO

[nimble swan]

I dont think it's in swsh tho

[red flax]

CYNDY ISNT IN SWSH EITHER

[nimble swan]

Well, you found it out on your own as it seems

[red flax]

WHAT R THEY DOING BRO

[nimble swan]

Theres the list

[red flax]

[nimble swan]

With all pokemon that are not in swsh

[zealous oasis]

Question

[lavish herald]

@fervent dawn top for swsh bottom for pla

[red flax]

How do i ask for a LEVEL??

Bc that vid has everything but lvls

[nimble swan]

.trade Garchomp
Level: 85

[red flax]

Is it like this?
.trade Torchic
Level: 23
Shiny: Yes

[lavish herald]

if you’re using swsh i would just use team builder

[red flax]

Ok thx

[lavish herald]

it’s a lot easier

[hollow flower]

I thought tier 2 and 3’s got priority in gengar chat?

[magic canopy]

If I wanted a different form of a Pokemon for sword/shield, say, a normal yamask, how would you do that?

Or an alolan raichu?

Please?

[lavish herald]

you can find any pokémon that you can get legally on https://play.pokemonshowdown.com/teambuilder and customize it fully then copy and paste it with the export button

[proud valve]

How do I get unbanned is there a time limit

[nimble swan]

You won't, the role is permanent

[proud valve]

Oh

😐

[wise shadow]

You were most likely banned because of something you said or did I wouldn’t recommend doing that in the future

[hollow flower]

@unique cairn swsh lapras is still down

Awesome thank you

[lavish herald]

@serene mauve that file isn’t legal please stop requesting it

[serene mauve]

I noticed. I was trying to fix it and just gave up

[midnight otter]

how do i use the swsh gengar bot

ty

[silent hemlock]

[hushed grotto]

what does it mean by no alts are allowed in here?

[pulsar hill]

Do I have to friendship level them because my pokemon wont do the moves and fall asleep?

[nimble swan]

They probably dont obey you because they have a too high level. You need to get all badges before traded Pokemon on Level 100 obeys you

[pulsar hill]

Ohh ok thank you

[vagrant otter]

I’ve tried it 8 times and it didnt work

[midnight otter]

it doesnt work

ive done this like 5 times and it wont trade

when it gives me the code i put it in the link trade thing, i wait until it tells me its my turn

and then it just doesnt do anything

the code

when the bot gives me the code i put it in the link trade code thing

in the game

yes

[vagrant otter]

i will try 1 more time

[teal shard]

ive been waiting for the estimated amount of time and it is still not ready, what should I do?

oh sry

[vagrant otter]

do i have to be in a specific region?

[lavish herald]

no

[vagrant otter]

ok

[midnight otter]

ok it worked this time

[vagrant otter]

When the trade bot says canceled trade and i still trade will it work?

[lavish herald]

no

[rotund swan]

For people having trouble trading with the bot: Please read this below and remember to type in the code when it says “Initializing…” If you’ve done all of that… then proceed with your any other questions 🙂

[vagrant otter]

oh ok

[karmic fractal]

On the trade bots how do i change the pokeball my pokemon comes in?

[rotund swan]

Check the pins of the gengar channel

[karmic fractal]

ok

wait where?

[rotund swan]

the little pin in the top right

then scroll to the bottom

[karmic fractal]

Oh thank you!!!

[silent hemlock]

@rotund swan (answering your question in #936098106100047882) Yes, the Pokémon that you received is linked to this server. It’s a way of advertising the server to the masses.

[midnight otter]

what gym badges do i need to get for a lvl 44 to obey me

[vagrant otter]

i think pier's gym badge

[midnight otter]

which one is that sorry

[vagrant otter]

Dark type

after Bea's gym

[midnight otter]

alr ty

[covert crane]

You sure you're not mistaking gyms cause the order of the gyms are
Milo - Grass
Nessa - Water
Kabu - Fire
Bea/Alister - Fighting/Ghost
Opal - Fairy
Gordie/Melony - Rock/Ice
Piers - Dark
Raihan - Dragon
And by the time you reach Bea/Alister, a level 44 Pokemon would be able to obey you no problem

[silent hemlock]

?obey

Nice one Carl

Do we have a shiny raid den server by chance

[buoyant bolt]

go to Pokémon showdown .com then you make the Pokémon and click import / export and then copy the highlighted text .Go to the gengar bot server and type .trade and then paste the text you highlighted

[earnest solstice]

Thanks

[buoyant bolt]

It will give you a code so you type that code in link trade and wait for the bot to message you when it’s ready

[lavish herald]

we got rid of them awhile ago sorry

[hoary gull]

When Scarlet and Violet are released, will there be a gengar and lapras for them?

[covert crane]

That is unknown at the time, but whether there will be one or not depends on if the sysbot developers choose to continue making the bot work for future games

[hoary gull]

ok ty

[round yew]

So do I get a pm before my spot comes up at all? Or just when it's my turn. Sorry first time

[nimble swan]

You will receive the pokemon when your the first in the queue, so basically when its your turn. Also the time is just estimated in case you might be wondering why it takes longer than the bot said

[round yew]

Sorry that much I understood. I meant a message from the bot. Like personal message. Maybe should have said dm

Like any sort of confirmation message besides the tagged one in chat? Again I apologize

[nimble swan]

Oooh, I think I get it now. When its your turn, you'll receive another message from the bot that your trade will be initialized and a couple other ones where it says that its searching now and the ingame name is ....
Also there is no need to apologise :)

@round yew

[jade gazelle]

can you use this to get Calyrex-Ice or just the normal form. If so what do you need to put as its name/ ability?

[lavish herald]

you have to get calyrex and the other pokémon separately and use the fusion item

[jade gazelle]

Thanks!

Is it possible to get gmax gengar in sword?

[lavish herald]

yes

[cobalt rover]

I heard it was version exclusive to shield but ig not

[lavish herald]

oh i thought you meant with the bot lol

[gilded iron]

Is there a way to give the Pokémon a separate region? I wanna recreate some of my x and y mons

[nimble swan]

If you dont like the marks the pokemon has after the trade, just simply delete them, because I dont know if there's a way that they're not marked

[nimble swan]

Because Keldeo transforms into its Resolute-Form when it has Secret Sword in its moveset

[nimble swan]

If there is, then probably with PKHeX

[gilded iron]

Wtf is PKHeX

[nimble swan]

A program

[sand mist]

Oh awesome. Thank you 🙂

[civic glen]

There is
.trade Ditto
Language: Japanese
would be an example

Oh nvm I misread

[dawn pine]

can u get a shiny arceus from the bot

[nimble swan]

Just from #bdsp-bot but to use it you have to be YouTube-Member, Premium-Member or Patreon-Subscriber

[rotund swan]

Is the Shiny Lapras Patreon worth buying?

Please dm or tag with answer ^

[lavish herald]

id say yes you get access to the pokémon home and have access to the bots + a role

[rotund swan]

How does the pokemon home thing work

[lavish herald]

ive used it before it was a pretty good experience

you basically just login and take what you need but don’t take like whole pages of pokémon

[ruby relic]

From my perspective, yes. Pokémon home contains frequent updates on many different types of Pokémon. Including the Pokémon home feature, you still have the pre existing functions included.

[rotund swan]

So everyday I can open up pokemon home and take a few out of there into my game and new ones appear every day?

[ruby relic]

If it ever runs out, you just gotta let us know in our patreon exclusive chat

[rotund swan]

ah ok

Im tempted to get it

[ruby relic]

But yes, you’re free to remove as much as you like :))

[rotund swan]

Now if I put pokemon into pokemon home it won't clear them will it

And when I buy it do I automatically get the perks?

[ruby relic]

You’d need to connect your patreon service to discord.

[ruby relic]

I personally have never used Pokémon home, but you’d probably have to place it into a separate storage from Pokémon home.

[rotund swan]

oh ok

how do i connect my patreon

[ruby relic]

In patreon, you’ll be able to connect it.

[rotund swan]

ok

thanks for the help 🙂

[ruby relic]

should be instant, follow these steps:

Step 1: Log in to your Patreon account, and head to the Apps tab of your Profile settings page.
Step 2: Click on the Connect button next to the Discord app.
Step 3: Now that your Patreon and Discord accounts are communicating, our integration will assign you the role tied to your Tier!

And ya, no problem

[pearl jay]

Is there a video on how to use the legends gengar

[opal vortex]

do the SWSH pokemon trades always have the discord name on them?

[ruby relic]

What do you mean?

[opal vortex]

Someone gave me a pokemon with the discord name on them so will all of the pokemon from the SWSH trade bots have the name of dsc.gg/bdsp like that pokemon or will they just not have a nickname

[lavish herald]

they won’t have a nickname

[opal vortex]

ok

[cedar granite]

I want to pay for subscription for lapras bot can someone message me and help me

[rotund swan]

what do you need help with

[cedar granite]

What's difference in shiny lapras bot and regular lapras bot

[rotund swan]

If you pay for Shiny Lapras, you’ll get access to a pokemon home account that is filled with shinies

[cedar granite]

Am I able to transfer the accessed home account pokemon to my account?

[rotund swan]

yeah you can take them out and put them wherever

[cedar granite]

And also do I have to wait 30 mins if I want to get a pokemom from lapras bot

[rotund swan]

no, the line is usually pretty short

[nimble swan]

The highest I've seen was 3 people in the queue

[cedar granite]

So once I pay for the shiny lapras bot do they send me a home account or how does that work so I can transfer pokemon to my account

[rotund swan]

It’s a shared home account, there will be a specific channel for going in and out of the home account

more info is in that channel but i don’t have access rn

[cedar granite]

Ok thank you

What Channel is it just curious

[rotund swan]

you can’t see it until you are a patreon

but it’s fairly simple

[pastel charm]

does this still actually work? my trade got cancled the first time and i enterned the link code correctly.

the gengar bot. my bad.

i honestly think i messed up somewhere i just wanted to know that people are getting the pokemon they are trying to get.

[zealous oasis]

@fresh zenith
Watch this

?guide

[fresh zenith]

K

[rotund swan]

are you connected online via the y-comm?

[pastel charm]

yes

[rotund swan]

okay try standing inside a pokemon center next time, and type in the code when you get the DM saying “Initializing…”

[pastel charm]

oooo ok

[lethal juniper]

@covert crane i got a bot ban can you remove it i didnt know i was in the wrong channel
im very sorry

[fresh zenith]

Every time I do it the gengar bot says no trainer found so.so what do I do

[pastel charm]

This was my error message as well.. i will trying doing the code inside a Poke center

[covert crane]

I wasn't the one who gave it to you and I'm not one to intervene with bot bans provided by others

[lethal juniper]

idk who gave it

[zealous oasis]

You shouldn't have asked for Pokemon that weren't in Legends Arceus 😰

[obtuse sigil]

Are you able to get shiny legendaries in the bot for pla?

[nimble swan]

Nope

[obtuse sigil]

Swt thanks for that 👍

[nimble swan]

They are all shiny locked. The only way to get them is via home

So you could gen some in swsh, transfer them to home and then to PLA

[pastel charm]

i was in the poke center and it still said it disconnected no trainer found

[nimble swan]

Well, if you have Nintendo Online, are connected to the wifi with the switch, activated the internet via ycom, started searched when it said that its initializing the trade and stood in a pokemon center. The only thing I can imagine now is that your internet signal might be bad

[torn whale]

Just a quick one guys, waited for 2 trades this evening but both were cancelled because of “suspicious activity.” Anyone know why this could be, first time I’ve ever had a problem with the bot. SwSh btw

[nimble swan]

No way to reverse this btw

[torn whale]

Forgive the naivety but I don’t fully understand. Used it just a few hours ago with no issues

[nimble swan]

I can only tell you what I know and the only two ways I heard of how it comes to this case is written in the screenshot. It basically means that you might used an alternative discord account plus the one you're using right now with whom you traded to the same save file or you used the bot to trade to two different save files

[nimble swan]

[mint hill]

i need serious help ive been trying to get this zekrom for hours

im not sus i swear

i just want my kyurem fusions

[mint hill]

?

this is the only acc ive been using this on

i only joined this server like yesterday omg

that dosent helpmuch at all but ok

[silent hemlock]

[mint hill]

ok how do i fix it because as far as ik ive only been using one account

if some other 2nd account is ou there them im clueeless

save files, i mean i only have one swsh save file one disord acc

alright

[quick monolith]

i tried to get a zaurde in sword and it said no

oh ok thanks

[mint hill]

sothats it?

[silent hemlock]

And the moves might not be right but I’m not 100%

[mint hill]

i cant use the bot anymore?

[mint hill]

but he said two save files

im STUMPED when did i save anything...

huh 😖

[silent hemlock]

So you only have one file on the game?

[mint hill]

yes... u can have only oen save file of swsh on the switch anyways

[silent hemlock]

Not true but okay

[nimble swan]

Did you use an alternative account to with whom you traded to your one save file?

[mint hill]

wdym if u want to start a new game u have to delete ur old prgress

[nimble swan]

You can have more, but you need another account I guess

[ruby relic]

On switch, you can have multiple, I guess- account for Pokémon trianers club- that allows you to recreate another game

[mint hill]

idkman

i honestly dk

every mon ive trades is in this same box

[ruby relic]

Having 1 saved file, does not mean you won’t have access to recreate another. Only thing you’d need to do, is make a new or use an existing Pokémon Trainers account, to be able to create another.

[mint hill]

well i dont even knwo what pokemon trainers is

[ruby relic]

It’s something that the switch uses, it might be called something else- but that’s what’s used on my switch

[mint hill]

ll i do is turn on my switch and click my pokemon sword and keep playing.

i'll have to figure it out ig

[ruby relic]

When you click the game, for me- it’ll open up different account names I have. If not a plus sign saying to add another account*

[mint hill]

ye ik that bt i only use my acc

ik my brother has one on here

maybe i clicke dit by accident?

[vast fern]

Yo how do I ask for a certain pokemon form Like rainbow alcremie

[ruby relic]

If it’s on the same switch, then that’s 2 save files

[mint hill]

but dosent that wipe out one save file

[nimble swan]

You can pick the Alcremie forms on showdown. Theres a little square with a pointed down triangle in it right in the bottom right corner of the Alremie picture. If you click on it, it shoukd display all the different forms. Same with Unown iirc

[mint hill]

if thats the case i probably didnt notice ic licked the 2nd acc after all its not ike i had to start a new game or anything

[vast fern]

Thx

[ruby relic]

Having 2 save files does not mean anything about removing the previous one. If something like, an error of not saving the game occurred- that maybe the reason for it not being there?

[mint hill]

well idk i just closed the game and made sure to go onto my acc instead of my brothers

if it dosent let me trade still idk thats it ig

ok cool, whatever gets my my zekroms

[odd field]

should i name my shiny comfey something hawaiian? ex: Lana'i, Naupaka, Lehua, Ohia, Lili'uokalani... pls pick for me

[rotund swan]

Tapu Lele

[odd field]

wahhhhh

[distant kite]

Got a question about the gengar bot, is there anyway to tell it on what pokéball we want our pokémon in?

thank you

[indigo ether]

how does #swordshield-bot work

how do i write the command

[covert crane]

It's said in the guide

[indigo ether]

i know, but how do i type it into discord right

is there a specific way

[covert crane]

All you have to do is paste what you want from showdown (as shown in the guide), unless you really want to type what you want with the specifics without it

[pine egret]

can the bot blacklist me or something I had a similar issue to the person above but I havent been able to trade with it, is it because I traded some to my friend? I don't really know the rules and I'm just a collector so I also don't mind becoming a patron for lapras, but are there other rules that I missed 🥺 and yes I also have only one save file this is my only switch

[rotund swan]

the suspicious activity thing?

[lucid chasm]

Did you trade directly with your friend (meaning from you to them) or did you like send them the link code for the bot to receive something? I think you get flagged if more than one swsh account trades with the bot from your discord so that's the only thing I could think of

[pine egret]

yes.. maybe it's bc i requested a lot? I really only play those den raids with that friend so we just like to try out pokemon

[pine egret]

no I did it bc she said it's too confusing for her lmao-

[lucid chasm]

If the bot only sent Pokemon to your account, idk how it would know if you traded it to someone else. I don't think it can track what you do with it once you receive it but idk 😅

[pine egret]

ok yes I am so confused I'm thinking it's bc I made a lot of requests?? But if there's no way to fix it I can just sub to the patreon

[rotund swan]

so you traded to your own save file and then used the bot that traded to a different save file?

[pine egret]

no I would just trade with the bot and then after I would trade with my friend

[rotund swan]

ah i see

make a ticket in #816389595246886942

[pine egret]

ok thank you sorry^^'

@thorn jetty

[thorn jetty]

thanks x

this is so sick! this guy is a genius

im really sorry if this is a stupid question.
so when i type in the info to gengar bot does the code get sent at a dm or is it just visable to only me in the gengar chat list?

[rotund swan]

It sends you a dm

You’ll get the code immediately but I recommend typing it in on your switch when you get the DM saying “Initializing…”

[thorn jetty]

thats so good he really thought of everything

[rotund swan]

he did

[thorn jetty]

wish i could give him a hi 5

this is my first pokemon game and being able to play with shinies would be so dope

[rotund swan]

yea it’s pretty cool

[thorn jetty]

and can i give them any moves or do i have to give them moves and abilities they would know

[rotund swan]

they gotta be able to learn it legally

[mystic shard]

https://play.pokemonshowdown.com/teambuilder

[rotund swan]

use this ^ website to pick moves and customize your pokemon

before you copy and paste your request into the channel, i recommend validating it by clicking the “Validate” button on the site and it will let you know if your pokemon is legal or not

[thorn jetty]

wow thats soo cool

(can you tell im pretty new to tech stuff haha)

[rotund swan]

Lol no worries we all start somewhere

i should also clarify that website is only used for the sword/shield bot

if you want to use the legends arceus bot, the other yt guide shows how

you can ping him if you’d like, i’m sure he’d appreciate it

[thorn jetty]

um which uh "tab" i guess you call it would be most appropriate to ping him?

[rotund swan]

any is fine

[thorn jetty]

coolio ill ping here as the tab is pretty vacant at the moment

@rotund swan also thank you so much for helping me figure some of this stuff out aswell, i really appreciate it

mabey once ive finished the game we can battle sometime or do a raid

[rotund swan]

you’ll probably have more luck in the #951270958830866482 or one of those

[thorn jetty]

haha fair was just a thought, buuuut alas i must head to bed coz its 3am lol

[pastel charm]

I see my problem. Thank you

[minor tiger]

A premium member is basically patreon in a nutshell but you get access to the Lapras bots and (correct me if I’m wrong ) you still get access the the Pokémon home accounts that are filled with Pokémon

[covert crane]

At this moment they don't have access to the home boxes, discord premium members here are the equivalent of a tier 1 patreon member

[leaden swift]

i want to make a arceus trade but i dont want to have to download somthing what do i use

[lavish herald]

you can just do .trade Arceus

[leaden swift]

how do i get alph from trade its not in showdown

whould somthing like this work

trade Garchomp Level:40
Alpha: yes
Shiny: Yes

[lavish herald]

you don’t use showdown for the legends bot because it’s coded for pkhex

[leaden swift]

i have to download somthing for that'

tho

OK

[ruby kindle]

Is that geniune?

[nimble swan]

Yes, even tho its a little inaccurate because its 144

[ruby kindle]

Whoa, that's nice.

[thorn jetty]

can arceus be in sword and shield or is it not possible? i ask coz some sites online say you cant transfer arceus from Pk.L.A to sword and shield so im just wondering if using the gengar bot will still work

[nimble swan]

From what I see in general, it seems like you already found the answer to your question

[thorn jetty]

@nimble swan i ask just to make life easier for knowing what i can and cant make requests for on gengar. as im currently looking for a list of all pokemon that can be tranferred into sw and sh from the other games

[nimble swan]

I just pointed that out so others who might see your question but not that you already got the answer doesnt need to answer it and ping you

Also there's a list in the pins of this channel with all pokemon that do not exist in swsh. Its not quite what you're looking for but I think every pokemon that exist in swsh can be transferred into it but also genned

[thorn jetty]

if im honest i dontmind as i panick a lot so having all the extra confermation is good for me coz it confirms what i can and cant do which is fantastic

[ashen iron]

Hi can someone help me why it keep canceling trade

Said NoTrainerFound

Its my fifth attempt 🥲

[amber marten]

what is the trade link for legends arceus gengar?

[ashen iron]

I mean in swsh 🥲

[amber marten]

@nimble swan do you know the trade link for legends gengar trade in legends arceus?

[nimble swan]

There are a couple of things that can lead to this

?slow

What it says in the message above me arr a couple reasons why it may fail. Also start searching first when the bit tells you that its initializing the trade. Another good thing is to be in a pokemon center when you want tk start searching. And if you did all of that and yet still the bot doesnt seem to find you, the it might be due to a bad wifi signal. If it still doesnt work after all these things, then Im clueless

[nimble swan]

What exactly do you mean with trade link? Like the code for the trade? If you mean that, then the bot will send you a code via dms (Make sure to enable dms on the server)

[zealous oasis]

It gives you a link code in your dms

[amber marten]

ok thank you so much

[cosmic smelt]

can i get alphas from gengar bot

[zealous oasis]

Yes

DO this command
Alpha: Yes

[cosmic smelt]

@zealous oasis Can it be anywhere

[obtuse anvil]

can i get a marked pokemon from gengar bot?

[cosmic smelt]

@zealous oasis I put Alpha: Yes and it didnt work. does it have to be in a certain position?

[rotund swan]

you can’t use pokemon showdown

the minimum you can do without having to use pkhex is just shiny, alpha, and level

@cosmic smelt Stop using pokemon showdown for #940357499297615902 or you will end up being bot banned

[cosmic smelt]

oh ok

what should i use instead?

[nimble swan]

You either use PKHeX or you just type the lines which looks like the following
.trade Garchomp
Alpha: Yes
Shiny: Yes
Level: 89

[cosmic smelt]

ok thanks alot

[nimble swan]

What do you mean with "marked"?

[cosmic smelt]

do i put multitype for Arceus or do i get it already

[nimble swan]

You don't need to pick an ability

[cosmic smelt]

ok thank you

[nimble swan]

@cosmic smelt All legendary pokemon in PLA are shinylocked. The only way to get them is through trading with home

Also if you want a pokemon to be Level 100 you dont need the line

[cosmic smelt]

so i cant get a shiny arc?

[nimble swan]

Only if you get it in bdsp, transfer it from bdsp to home and then from home to pla

Same with every other legendary/mythical

[cosmic smelt]

.trade Oshawott
Alpha: Yes
Shiny: Yes
Level: 99

oops wrong channel

[nimble swan]

@rotund swan Shiny Zacian is an event pokemon, you cant nickname it

@night galleon Dont use Showdown for #940357499297615902. You'll most likely get the Bot Banned

@tiny cedar Even tho you made it work once, I just wanted to inform you that the command is .trade and not trade.

@rotund swan As you might have seen, you're using the wrong bot. Go to #940357499297615902 and stop using Showdown or you might get bot banned

[tiny cedar]

Ok thanks

[nimble swan]

@sharp yacht Your Goldeen needs the hidden ability , because it has a move only available form Gen 1-2 Virtual Console transfer

@thorn jetty If you give Giratina the Griseous Orb it has to be Giratina-Origin as well as needs the ability Levitate

[thorn jetty]

can it still have the nickname?

[nimble swan]

That one should be no problem, only event mons cant be nicknamed

@tiny cedar Depends on the length of the queue, also the time the bot tells you is just estimated and will probably take longer. Also fused Pokemon cant be traded, you have to get them separately and fuse them ingame

[thorn jetty]

@nimble swan will it say in gengar or in dms that inisialing message?

@old sphinx You cant get Urshifu as shiny, its shinylocked. Also if you want it to be Gmax, then you dont pick the Gmax variant on Showdown, you take the normal one and click on the option Gigantamax on yes. Its where the option to pick if its shiny or not

[tiny cedar]

No it’s shiny whenever it goes into Zenith

The teal areas turn purple

[nimble swan]

Nonetheless its shinylocked since there was no event where it was obtainable as shiny. Making it as shiny an illegal pokemon and illegal pokemon cant be traded with the bot

[tiny cedar]

True

Wait can it still be bred?

[nimble swan]

[granite relic]

ok

[leaden swift]

how do i pick a lvl for legends do i just put "lvl" __ or what ever lvl i want

[nimble swan]

Just add a line with Level: x
For example:
.trade Garchomp

[tiny cedar]

Is there a way for me to remove myself from the queue in “sword shield-gengar”

@steady zealot Victini is shinylocked, means you cant get it with the bots as shiny

where is that

You dont have to wait, you can start searching when the bot dms you that its initializing the trade

Just click on the first link of the message I'm replying to @runic coyote

After that you'll be able to use the bot properly

For example:
.trade Garchomp
OT: Duff

[leaden swift]

ok

[nimble swan]

@rocky ember If you want to get fused Pokemon, then you have to trade them separate and fuse them yourself

[rocky ember]

ah how do i fuse them then?

[nimble swan]

After you received the pokemon, you go to the city Stow-on-side to the right one of the two merchants and he'll give you the item

[rocky ember]

ok thank you

[tired mountain]

I am trying to type a message but I can’t seem to be able to type the word bot

[nimble swan]

Its not possible in other channels, I tried to answer but my message got deleted

[nimble swan]

Its pretty simpel, to answer the question in #851309088293126145. There is no free bot for bdsp anymore. Only for SW/SH #swordshield-bot) or PLA #940357499297615902)

[tired mountain]

Odd but ok

Thank you

[nimble swan]

The reasons are in #mini-news, you probably need to scroll up a bit. In case you might wanna know

@leaden swift If you want regional forms its -Hisui after the species of the pokemon. In your case Zoroark-Hisui

[leaden swift]

oh ok

[nimble swan]

@hollow flower Its Typhlosion-Hisui :)

[hollow flower]

Thanks man 😭 I’m struggling 😂

You mind giving me the correct format so I can just copy paste

[nimble swan]

I saw it and you're very welcome :)

[nimble swan]

No problem, what do you want it to be? Like Alpha, TID, SID, Ball OT, Shiny etc.

[hollow flower]

Yes please

[nimble swan]

.trade Typhlosion-Hisui
Alpha: Yes
Shiny: Yes

[hollow flower]

Tysm

[nimble swan]

You dont need to add the level, if you want it to be Level 100

You're welcome :)

@amber marten
.trade Eevee (M)
Shiny: Yes
Level: 40

@amber marten You just have to paste it from the message above

Most of the moves on Showdown arent in PLA so it will most likely fail

[sleek geyser]

i researched the moves that are on pokemon arceus

for the pokemon

before i applied it

[nimble swan]

Oh wait, it said it took to long to generate. Nevermind then, I dont think that its forbidden to use it as long as you research the moves, because Ability, EVs and IVs arent a problem

[sleek geyser]

nice

thank you btw

[nimble swan]

Im sorry then :)

[sleek geyser]

it's alr

[pastel charm]

i think my problem was i didnt have the online membership. i do now. lets see if that fixed it

[distant kite]

Is there anyway to change the OG trainer?

[thorn jetty]

is it normal for the bot to cancel a trade? i was waiting for it to load but then it cancelled? do you think the connection got to weak mabey?

[nimble swan]

Yes, by adding a line with OT:
For example:
.trade Garchomp
Shiny: Yes
OT: Duff

[distant kite]

Thank you

[nimble swan]

There could be many reasons, but a bad wifi signal is indeed one of it. I also recommend you start searching for the trade when the bot says that its initializing it as well as be in a Pokemon Center when you start searching

[thorn jetty]

why in a pokemon centre?

[minor tiger]

Less to load

[nimble swan]

@past mesa If you want the Pokemon to be gmax then dont pick Lapras-GMAX, thats an illegal pokemon since it would alway be in gmax form. Pick the normal one and below the option to pick if its shiny or not there is an option for Gigantamax. Also the prefix is . not /

[past mesa]

ok thanks

[nimble swan]

@muted sparrow Arceus is shinylocked in PLA like every other legendary in the game, the only way to get it is getting one in BDSP (Im talking about Arceus as an example), transfer it to Home and then from Home to PLA

@past mesa Try .trade as command :)

[past mesa]

thanks, but i am not ready yet

[nimble swan]

I know xD Just wanted to let you know, so you can do it after the cooldown

@vocal sequoia You cant get a shiny Volcanion with the bots

[stray spear]

Duff is the best

[nimble swan]

@rich trench To be able to get Genesect-Shock it needs to hold the item Shock Drive. It wont work with the Master Ball. Also you can get a normal one and collect the Drives from a merchant in stow-on-side

When you have the Genesect in your team

@ornate laurel Spectrier is shinylocked and cant be obtained through the bots

Therr should be list of shinylocked pokemon in the pins of #swordshield-bot

@wary shell Try this
.trade Xerneas @ Master Ball
Ability: Fairy Aura
Shiny: Yes
EVs: 4 HP / 252 SpA / 252 Spe

• Geomancy
• Moonblast
• Thunderbolt
• Draining Kiss

EVs are limited to 510 across all stats and if you want your pokemon to have all IVs 31 just dont write the line because it does it automatically

@wary shell You have to request it in #swordshield-bot

@steady bison Dont use Showdown for PLA, it will most likely fail because many moves displayed in Showdown arent in PLA

If you do it a couple times you'll most likely get bot banned

@torpid bay You're a Premium-Member so if I'm not wrong then you have access to #763131979565629510 and #legends-arceus-bot which are exclusive for supporter and have a mich shorter line so you dont have to wait that long :)

@rotund swan Its Zapdos-Galar

[pastel charm]

still getting that error

[nimble swan]

@slender quail Its absolutely no big deal but in case your not sure which pokemon is shinylocked and therefore not obtainable through the bots, then there is a little list with all on it in the pins of #swordshield-bot

[nimble swan]

Alright, then I go with the classics otherwise Im clueless and cant help you. Do you have Nintendo Online as well as a Switch connected to the wifi and the internet ingame activated through y-com?

[pastel charm]

yes

[nimble swan]

Are you able to participate in any online stuff like surprise trades, raids etc. or even other games with online functions?

[pastel charm]

i dont know. hmmm

whats up

its white

[nimble swan]

Try it out, if no online functions work it may be due to the ports in your router settings

[pastel charm]

oooooo

well

🤣

this is my first time lol

[wind sedge]

Am I Still Able to Get The Pokemon from the gengar bot if im offline?

[nimble swan]

Like offline = no internet. If thats the case, then no

[wind sedge]

I have internet

[nimble swan]

What exactly do you mean with offline then?

[wind sedge]

But i dont have the little Online membership

[nimble swan]

Oooh, no then its bot possible to get the pokemon

[wind sedge]

Damn.. Alright then.

[nimble swan]

You need Nintendo Online, Internet and the internet activated ingame via ycom

[slender quail]

Ok thank u

[wind sedge]

I Dont Have my own money lol so i cant get the membership

[nimble swan]

There's a free 7 day trial, but you need a credit card or a paypal account to get it. Because after the 7 days, if you dont quit auto payment they will buy a month of Nintendo Online every month until you quit the already mentioned auto payment

[wind sedge]

Of which i also dont have lol

[nimble swan]

Sadly I can't help you then but at least here's a friendly digital hug 🫂

@jagged pumice Just to be sure, in case you havent seen it. You forgot the command .trade in front of the Showdown paste

Erm... alright

@gleaming thunder You cant trade fused pokemon. If you want them, you have to request both pokemon separately and then fuse them ingame on your account

[gleaming thunder]

Oh ok thank you so much

[nimble swan]

@steel ember You cant get gmax shiny Melmetal. You can either have a shiny Melmetal or the gmax one from the event but not both at once. Also at least some or maybe all I dont know its entire moveset of your picked moves are illegal because Melmetal cant learn them

Before I go to bed

?validate

Use this on Pokemon Showdown to prevent of making an illegal Pokemon which cant be obtained through the bot :)

[tranquil abyss]

Just joined, about 4hrs into Arceus. What's the best Pokémon to trade myself without making the game too easy?

[nimble swan]

I dont think that theres a Pokemon that makes the game easy, as long as its no Legendary with way higher stats. The game at all isnt hard in terms of fighting, only the final one but that shouldnt be easy as long as you dont severely overlevel

[tranquil abyss]

Im hovering around the level 17 area. Was thinking I grab a 40 plus of something just to fly through and slow bits. I just can't decide lol

[nimble swan]

Its up to you, but dont forget that your rank needs to be high enough so the pokemon will oney you

[tranquil abyss]

Ah true. Forgot about that. Think I can only handle level 20 at the moment. Need to do some grinding first

Might go for a Garchomp when I can handle a good one

[gusty bobcat]

Can you get a shiny zarude if you use the gengar for sword?

[steady socket]

Can anyone help me evolve kadabra in bdsp

[nimble swan]

Zarude is shinylocked so its no possible

[gusty bobcat]

Ok ty

[nimble swan]

Im sorry to tell you, but this isnt the correct channel for this. This channel here is for server related questions

@rotund swan Eternatus is shinylocked, you cant obtain it with the bot

[leaden swift]

would this work .convert Dusclops
Shiny: Yes
Alpha: Yes
OT: Benjamin
Level:40

[unkempt hearth]

Is my profile pic too inappropriate for this server?

[zealous oasis]

I think it's fine
Just really cursed

[static blaze]

@unique cairn Is SwSh Gen down by chance?

okay weird! this guy has been waiting ab 45 minutes from a 20 minute queue so i was just checking

[nocturne sierra]

I am trying to get a 50 level darmanitan, But i receive a level 100 one. Can someone help me? Darmanitan-Galar (M) @ Master Ball
Ability: Zen Mode
Level: 50
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature

• U-turn
• Icicle Crash
• Flare Blitz
• Earthquake

[rotund swan]

50 = 100 in bot language, you have to make it 49 or 51

[nocturne sierra]

Thaaaaanks! Can i leave The queue?

[rotund swan]

yep!

.qc

[nocturne sierra]

Thaaaanks again

[proper roost]

How do I do diamond and pearl spawns.

[static blaze]

if you are talking about BDSP, we have a subscription based bot in #bdsp-bot. for more information you can visit the #click-me page

[tawny token]

how to get permission to use the PLA trading?

[static blaze]

the channel does say it will be back later. please be patient

[tawny token]

ohhh i thought i saw recent activity

[proper roost]

No I mean where and how do I put in a request and the website that i can make the Pokémon

[static blaze]

?guide

watch either video depending on your game

[proper roost]

Thank couldn’t find the video

[dapper garnet]

how do i use lapras bot

hello??

[covert crane]

Be either a Patreon supporter, Youtube Member or Discord Premium Member

[proper roost]

Do u still do diamond and pearl

[dapper garnet]

no

[static blaze]

brilliant diamond and shining pearl?

[proper roost]

Yes

[static blaze]

Yes but it’s not as active so as i said before, it’s subscription based

you need a patreon subscription to access it

[proper roost]

Oh damn I

[dapper garnet]

can i gmax

HELP

[covert crane]

yes, as long as the Pokemon can Gmax normally

[gusty bobcat]

where does all the shiny pokemon come from?

is their something getting shiny pokemon in 0.1 seconds?

[dusk gulch]

Yo can anyone help me i’m not getting my Pokémon from the Gengar bot It keeps saying trade cancel every time when I put in the code

[rotund swan]

are you connected online with the y-comm?

[dusk gulch]

Yes

[rotund swan]

idk what it could be then, try standing inside a pokemon center during your trade next time and type in the code only when you get the DM saying “Initializing…”

[rotund swan]

@pliant prism How do i get shiny pokemon from this discord

[silent hemlock]

?guide

[rotund swan]

Thanks

[rotund swan]

it wont let me type

[lavish herald]

youre bot banned

[silent hemlock]

That’s a paddlin

[nimble swan]

@vernal hull Please stop using Pokemon Showdown for #940357499297615902. It will most likely fail and on top of that you'll get a not so nice bot ban if you do it a couple times :)

@rotund swan Even tho that request is over 10min ago, I wanted to let you know that trading fused Pokemon wont work. You have to get them separately and fuse them ingame. Also if you dont want the Pokemon to be shiny, you dont need to type Shiny: No, just dont write it at all

[rotund swan]

Ok

[nimble swan]

@wispy cobalt The move Draco Meteor is event exclusive for Jirachi and the one from the event wasnt shiny so its shinylocked with the move Draco Meteor. Means, if you want a Jirachis with Draco Meteor it has to be non shiny or if you want it to be shiny, then you have to replace the move Draco Meteor

Nvm, you figured it out while I was typing

@wispy cobalt That's an event pokemon and these cant be nicknamed

[nimble swan]

You might forgot to ask the question, I think. Because I dont see one

[nimble swan]

@silent hemlock or @civic glen #swordshield-bot isnt responding to commands, I assume its down. Can one of you, by any chance, lock the channel please. Same goes for #940357499297615902

@rotund swan Im sorry, I just saw that you're online

[rotund swan]

no worries

ty for saying something

[nimble swan]

I just saw that it responded right now, sorry for the unnecessary ping. I'll wait the next time

[rotund swan]

oh shit

[nimble swan]

Probably just a few minutes without wifi signal maybe

[rotund swan]

yea probably

i’ll be going to bed soon, hopefully it stays up

[nimble swan]

Alright, goodnight then and I hope it stays up too

@rotund swan Melmetal cant be shiny and gmax. Gmax Melmetal was from an event where it was not shiny, so its gmax form is shinylocked. You can either have a shiny Melmetal or a Gmax Melmetal but not a Shiny Gmax one

[rotund swan]

Yes sorry

[nimble swan]

@polar temple You forget to add the command .trade

[polar temple]

ok

[nimble swan]

Its all good, Im just telling you so you can gen one :)

[rotund swan]

Yes I am a new member

[nimble swan]

The command has to be before the Showdown paste/pokemon species
For example
.trade Tyranitar

[polar temple]

sorryok thx

[nimble swan]

Its all good, I just wanted to add that because I saw people putting them elsewhere but not where its supposed to be :)

@plucky willow Eternatus is shiny locked, so you cant get it with the bot

[nimble swan]

In case youre still online, the bot is probably down for real. The queue isnt shrinking. Its been 8 minutes since the last request and my test one, but the position hasnt lowered

@limpid lark Can you do me a favor and test if #legends-arceus-bot and #bdsp-bot are down too?

[limpid lark]

Will do gimme 1min

[nimble swan]

Take your time and thank you very much

[limpid lark]

It seems they are as well...

[nimble swan]

As I guessed ...
Also thank you very much for checking for me

[rotund swan]

are you referring to the pla bot

[nimble swan]

Every bot

[limpid lark]

Anytime! Stuff happens no biggie!

[nimble swan]

I asked him to check lapras for bdsp and legends since he tried it in swsh but got no response. The only bot responding is #swordshield-bot but this one doesnt work either because the queue stays the same length

@rotund swan ^ (Sorry for the many pings)

Yes, the bot is down, In case you want to ask about this Conor

[polar temple]

when is it back up

[nimble swan]

When the owner fixes it, but since the person was shortly before the crash heading to bed, it wilk take a while

[polar temple]

ok thx

[rotund swan]

Okay thanks Duff

[polar temple]

is it fixed yet jw

[nimble swan]

No. As I said, the owner went recently to sleep so the person has to fix it when he wakes up which will be first in a couple hours
