All things related with the Pokemon Bank and Poke Transporter successor.

I do have a weird Problem. In the GTS (mobile Version of Pokemon Home) there are Pokemon listed that want to be traded for Meltan.

Now I do have that Pokemon but I can't trade Meltan for an other Pokemon.

The line says "special Pokemon can not be traded". So far so good.

But why can you ask for "special Pokemon" at the GTS in the first place?

PSA: The same problem with surprise trade on Sw/Sh exists in Pokemon Home. Don't use the Wonder Box!

Error code 9013 I cannot get back into Home on Switch or my phone.

I'm so angry right now.

I'm dropping my FC here sorry if in wrong place.... NUPDLVWWTSGB

@luciap I mean why not? Here is my FC: ETEPUZVESLWK

@Heavyarms55 Everything works quite fine with my Pokemon Home.

@MaxlRoseGNR Use the trade feature at your own risk. I sent in a support ticket and GF/Pokemon did fix my account. But that doesn't mean they've managed to block the hackers who are causing the problem in the first place. I don't trust it anymore. I will not surprise trade or use the wonder box again. I wont even trade with strangers online directly. It's simply not worth the risk to me.

@Heavyarms55 maybe this Reddit post can clear things up for you: https://www.reddit.com/r/pokemon/comments/f3zi7v/error_code_9...

@MaxlRoseGNR I'm extremely familiar with the post, if assuming you read it too, you know that the problem is still happening and some people were even hit with the error, again, after it got fixed. Which is why I'm still not using the wonder box or surprise trade and suggesting to others that they also not use it.

If you want to just hope the problem is completely dealt with, that's up to you. Go ahead and keep trading, I really hope nothing goes wrong. But you were warned. Me? I've got a collection that dates back 17 years. Back to the GBA games. I'm not gonna play around with that. I've got event Pokemon that I'd never be able to replace. And shiny Pokemon that would take extremely long to replace. So my breed-rejects? They're getting released. At least until several months of no-problems go by or an official statement from Pokemon explains the issue in detail and that it was fully fixed and resolved.

@Heavyarms55 In the patchnotes of the latest Pokemon Home update it is said, that the problem you occurred is solved.

@MaxlRoseGNR It's not. I'm literally talking to someone else who got wrecked by it. They might have fixed it for some people, but if you get hit again, you get locked out again.

Is there any plans to purge gts on Pokemon home of impossible trades so people who want to trade can? Right now it's basically not possible to trade certain Pokemon because of this issue.
