I Surprise Traded 1000 Pokemon in Scarlet and Violet

here we go again oh boy

thank u to my lil team:

[RTGame]

This series becomes a challenge with each passing generation as they remove quality of life features, so the hustle is even more respectable now

[giannijimenez]

I remember seeing the magnemite in the trailer and thinking: “Oh yeah, Lucy’s gonna do it again.”

[Raph___A]

I never thought watching PokéTubers surprise trading would be so much fun, but I've been really enjoying this series.

[AbsolBlogsPokemon]

Always so fun to see the statistics that you get out of this! It's really neat to see it from an entirely offline perspective without the influence of a stream chat. And, YES, Pokemon mail needs to come back!! They could limit it to just positive messages or something idk

[thepokekid]

It would be so funny if TPC released the data and was like "We get weird spikes of magnemite for some reason"

[PLANETFINable]

“I like to give pokemon very formal human names” I gaze at the same wumple suddenly on screen and think “he looks like a Fred”, and then hear CandyEvie name him Frederick. I’m glad we both agree!

[Kostyurik]

Huge props for Lucy not only for doing 1000 trades, but actually nicknaming them all. Mikey from MandJTV tried the same thing, but he only made 400 trades and only had patience to nickname like 10 of them ;-)

The reason timezones made a difference this time around and why you got your own Pokemon sent back to you in BDSP is because in BDSP there is a pool of stored Pokemon that gets traded instantly to make sure people don't have to wait for wonder trades. So somebody could trade their Korean Pokemon 2 weeks ago and you get it 2 weeks later in a wonder trade.

[JYASOYT]

She’s gonna do this for every new Pokémon game that comes out isn’t she

[Purplecliffe]

so this is why i’ve been getting magnemites LOL

[chaossalad]

Getting so few Quaxly doesn’t mean they’re unpopular. It means they’re so popular that no one wanted to give them up

[imalltheragex]

One of my favorite small details/event type things that can be overlooked easily, is that on the dirt path to the outdoor cave-ish area that has a tera Garchomp just chilling on one of the rock pillers, if you are going down that path at night you might see two Sableyes running up or down it (I saw them running down the path towards the cave and fallowed them there cuz Sableye is my favorite pokemon so that scene was just precious to me). I think this micro event only occurs before night time is ending so it's like the Sableyes are running back home to the nice somewhat dark cave :3 don't know why I'm mentioning this here I just thought it was neat when I saw it happened

8:57 You can get a second koraidon/miraidon, which can be traded. And you can surprise trade the 4 other legends.

[StickMaster]

How you managed to not get any hacked Pokemon during these Surprise Trades baffles me!

[dallasjones]

When the starters for scarlet and violet were first shown, it sounded like everyone wanted quaxly, some people liked fuecoco and nobody wanted sprigatito or at least didn't want sprigatito to stand up. Kinda seems like everything changed after the games were released, everyone chose fuecoco, some people liked sprigatito and nobody wanted quaxly.

[htth]

Candyevie definition of quality over quantity

[bluelunala]

one of the reasons for quaxly being so low in the stats might be that meowscarda and skeledirge are much more popular in competitive. while quaquaval pretty much having free dragon dances can become strong, skeledirge's unaware + torch song and meowscarda's protean + guranteed crits are much more immediately useful in battles

[mattsighs]

As someone who picked Quaxly as his starter, I have all the love for him, that everyone else doesn't have! Sweet handsome boy.

[hazmahere]

Another great video Lucy, absolutely smashed it! About the statistics of French Pokémon you received in the surprise trades, I don’t think anything was mentioned about them in the video? Just curious of your analysis that’s all :)

[kanseethehootz]

8:33... MAN I can relate.
Other than Miraidon, Quaxly was literally the last evolutionary line I had to get to complete my Pokedex. I was able to get EVERYTHING ELSE I needed from Wonder Trading.
I don't know why... it's my second favourite starter from Gen 9!! 😭 Though, I guess admitting that makes me part of that problem doesn't it?
