updates

User flairs

• NEW: RPTFLairBot will now PM you when it has updated your user flair. If it doesn't send you a message, message the mods and we'll check on it.
• IGN (In-game name) is your name in the game, not your 3DS/mii name.

Post flairs

• Post flairs are for what you are offering for trade. Mods may change flairs at their discretion to better reflect what is FT.
• With the shutdown of the DS servers, the Previous Gen flair has been retired.
• NEW: Event and Service (pokegenning, cloning, powersaving, hatching, etc.) flairs have been added.
• There are now 2 ways to flair your posts.
  • Manually choosing the flair after submitting your post. The flair link is found where you edit your post. Edit: Forgot to update the list.. it's fixed now.
  • NEW: Adding a text tag anywhere in the body of your post, although the best place is on its own in the first line. Include the square brackets.

reminders

• You must state whether pokemon or items are hacked and/or cloned! If you are unsure, state you're unsure and where you got them. This applies to all posts and comments! If you list the stats (IVs, OT, etc.) people may be able to help check legitimacy.
  • /r/blackmarketpokemon has a clone list you can check.
  • /u/timasahh has a google spreadsheet of gen 6 cloned events
  • With the use of Powersaves, illegal balls are floating around. Here is a guide of the special balls that are legal.
• When trading on your post is done, please mark it complete (found where the edit link is) or leave a comment for a mod to mark it for you.
• Automod does not delete your posts or comments in this sub!

useful info

• Provide as much info as you can for what you have for trade to get more offers.
• If you don't use a google spreadsheet to list your pokemon (or even if you do), you can use lists or tables, since pokemon in your google spreadsheet will not show up in a reddit search.
• If you want to search for something specific, you can use search operators.
• When coordinating trading times you can use http://time.is/ (or another time website) to post your local time.
• Special ball inheritance guide.
• Use your pokemiles at the Pokemon Global Link's balloon popping and graffiti eraser (lol wut) games to get evolution and other items.
• Various terms defined for newbies.
• How to see the sidebar in several mobile apps.

If you have any questions, concerns, problems, or suggestions, comment here or message the moderators. We're here to help you!

Happy trading!
