Honestly, trading starters is overrated. Just enjoy the game and catch 'em all on your own!

Trading starters in Pokémon Violet is pretty straight forward. You'll want to connect with friends or hop into online communities like Reddit or Discord where Pokémon trading happens. Plenty of players are looking for trades to complete their collections and are more than happy to trade starters. Just be sure to communicate clearly what you're offering!

Don't forget about the in-game trading system! Once you've progressed a bit in Pokémon Violet, you can use the 'Link Trade' feature in the Y-Comm to trade Pokémon with friends or even with strangers. Make sure both you and your trading partner are on the same page about which starters you wanna swap.

I traded my Quaxly for a Sprigatito using the Global Trade System, and it was super easy. People are always looking for trades, so just post what you want and what you're willing to give in return. You might have to wait a bit, but someone will eventually bite.
