Hmmm. Technology is indeed an interesting thing.
In the past, during the gameboy era, I used to fret day and night over not being able to complete my Pokedex. The main problem is I am not able to find the right people with the right Pokemon to trade with. Even if I do find one, I would have to arrange to meet up with him because during that time, trading can only take place through the gameboy cables. Most of the time, we are not willing to travel to each other's place just to trade a Pokemon. And travelling to a pre-planned place just to trade Pokemon is pretty "dumb" as well.
So most of the time, I would only be able to carry out Pokemon trading during family gathering events whereby I can trade with all my cousin. Such family gathering is often rare. That translates into incomplete Pokedex.
But now, things are different. With wi-fi compatibility, the Nintendo DS Lite enables me to not only trade Pokemon effortlessly with my friends but also with people around the ENTIRE WORLD! Yes. Its that amazing.
Just this afternoon, I traded a Pichu for a Charmander. The latter is a very rare in the previous games and there is only one in each game. But now, with "Breeding", you can breed many Charmanders! Anyway, the Charmander which I traded... is from California! That means its a CALIFORNIAN Charmander!
How cool is that haha.
