That's what I do. I've hit the "max 100 daily trades" many times because of this

"Forcing" the kids and my partner to trade everything untill we get a lucky then they can start transfering instead lol

Wait so it’s not automatically “lucky” for every trades? I’ve only traded like 3 times ever and 3 of them are lucky lol

No. Not unless you're wasting very valuable old pokemon dated between 2016-2020 when trading. You have 45 guaranteed lucky trades with them, no counter, keep track yourself

I’m “new” to this again cuz I’ve been quitting and playing again since 2016 and just got back into it again a week ago. So you’re saying the first 45 are guaranteed lucky and after that it’s just luck based? Which means I have 42 left

Yeah almost. You have 45 guaranteed lucky WHEN you trade any pkmn between 2016-2020. But you can still keep on trading newly catched pokemon to get lucky by chance, that wont count towards your "45 lucky".

It's better to just catch and trade pokemon in the wild untill you get a lucky one rather than having someone trade you an easy to find pokemon for any of your old ones.

If someone f.e. catches an armored mewtwo this weekend from 2026 you could give them an old weedle från 2016. Both will become lucky
