Similar to Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum, trading cannot occur until the player has obtained their Pokédex from [[Professor Oak]] at [[Mr. Pokémon|Mr. Pokémon's house]]. The player must have at least two Pokémon in the party; but no additional prerequisite is needed to trade with the Sinnoh games: this can be done at the very beginning of the game. | Similar to Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum, trading cannot occur until the player has obtained their Pokédex from [[Professor Oak]] at [[Mr. Pokémon|Mr. Pokémon's house]].
