Trade rumors?

Anyone have any dirt on how the trading system is going to work? I'm hoping stardust is in the mix.

I have a couple of friends who want to collect, but have a TON of stardust.

I've got a couple Legendaries I'll be selling off for 100k stardust ? Also, isn't Lugia the Legendary trade bait du jour? He seems the hardest to acquire in a raid.

Otherwise, what are your ideas for best trade bait?

No trading anytime soon.
In any case it would be pointless to me. I don't need anything. I can get everything by normal playing. I would only use trading as a way of helping friends by giving away my spare high IV pokemon

This. The extent of my trading will probably be "trading" my wife a heracross and a couple of unowns. Maybe she'll land me a farfetch'd when she goes to Asia next summer. Outside of regionals, I have no needs.

100k dust for a legendary? with no possibility to power up (guessing if one has the rare candies for a decent power up, one has done a couple of legendary birds)?

I would trade a couple of my birds for 10-20K dust.

anything in a raid is not hard to get.

Lugia has been out for the longest of the berds

And I have some Legacy moveset duplicates that I'll use for fodder

Only things half tradeable are legacy movesets, shinny, unknown, special pikachus and maybe regionals. Everybody has tons of legendary by now, and enough TMs to get any normal movesets they want.

With all the cheater in the game at the moment
The'ONLY' way to bring out trading is through
Poke coin
I assume 100 poke coin per Pokemon is the baseline .
Poke coin amount increase as the level of the Pokemon increase

Assume or may be a 39 Lv mom cost you 300-500 poke coin

Seeing as the game doesn't even explicitly tell you what level your mon are, I would be surprised if they suddenly implemented level-based play. As far as anything besides that, your guess is as good as mine.

I'm US-based, and I have a horde of Mr. Mimes that I caught during a trip to Europe a couple years ago before spawns were less frequent. I'd love to use them to get the other regionals and/or a legacy Omstar, but I suspect that by the time it arrives, they'll already have had all the exclusives come to the USA via special event.
