How to trade in SV now that people have moved to Z-A?

Question

So, the trade codes made by Austin John Plays used to work perfectly, but I still need Scarlet Paradoxes in Violet to fill the dex.
But because Z-A came out, nobody seems to use these trade codes any more. How do I get the Scarlet Paradoxes anymore?

You're just gonna have to get lucky with finding someone to trade with. You can look on online trading communities, as I'm sure there's plenty of people who would be willing to help if you put yourself out there.

Answer 1

Keep trying.

With people playing Z-A actively, it makes sense there's not as many people playing the older games. However, that does not mean you can't get the codes to work. Keep trying; you just have to be lucky and catch someone online. Try at different times.

Some alternatives:
- You can try asking others on our chatroom.
- Try trading forums, like r/pokemontrades on Reddit.
- Trade on the Pokemon Home on the Mobile App.
- Ask a classmate or friend if they will trade with you.
- Join local community groups surrounding Pokemon that are in your local area, and ask them to trade.
- Buy the other game and transfer them to yourself on Pokemon Home.

Best of luck
