Today, I wanted to try out something called “wonder trade.” I heard about it from some friends, and it sounded pretty cool. Basically, you trade one of your guys, and you get a random one back from someone else in the world. It’s like a surprise gift exchange, but with these little virtual creatures.
So, I fired up my game and picked out a pretty common one that I had a bunch of. Nothing special, just one of the many I’d caught while wandering around. I selected the “wonder trade” option, and confirmed my choice. The screen did a little animation thing, and then it showed me the guy I was trading away and said it was searching for a partner.

I waited for a bit, drumming my fingers on the table. It didn’t take too long, maybe just a minute or so. Then, the screen changed again and showed me the one I was getting. And guess what? It was another common one! Not exactly what I was hoping for, but hey, that’s the gamble, right?
My Wonder Trade Results
- Sent: One of those bird guys, I have like a million of them.
- Received: A little bug dude. Also pretty common, but I didn’t have that many of this one, so that’s something, I guess.
I did a few more trades after that, just to see what would happen. Most of them were just more common guys trading hands. But then, I got one that was a little rarer! It was not something you see every day in the beginning areas. I was stoked! It made the whole thing feel more worth it, you know?
Overall, it was a fun little experiment. I probably wouldn’t do it all the time, but it’s a cool way to mix things up and maybe get lucky. You never know what you’re going to get, and that’s kind of the fun of it. I’d say give it a shot if you’re looking for something a little different to do in the game.
The last one I got was really special, I’ve never seen it before. A friend told me it was rare and I must have been really lucky. I kept the last one as the good ending of this experiment, maybe I will use it later in the game.
It was a good day!
