In every [[core series]] Pokémon game except [[Pokémon Legends: Arceus]], trading is necessary to collect all the [[Pokémon availability|available Pokémon]]. The [[version-exclusive Pokémon]] are those that are found in other related games. In addition, some Pokémon [[trade evolution|evolve when traded]]. Some of these Pokémon need to be [[held item|holding]] a specific [[Evolution item]] in order to evolve.

Starting from [[Generation II]], [[item]]s can be held by Pokémon, allowing indirect trading of holdable items. However, in Generation IV, the [[Griseous Orb]] cannot be traded, as it will automatically be put back in the Bag when a player with Origin Forme Giratina in their party enters the Union Room or Wi-Fi Room. [[Mail]] may also be held to send a message.

Until {{game|Black and White|s 2|Black 2 and White 2}}, all trading animations in the [[core series]] games used the standard {{i|Poké Ball}}, regardless of the types of Balls the traded Pokémon were actually caught in. This is corrected in Black 2 and White 2, in which trade animations show the correct Poké Ball the Pokémon was caught in.
