Despite it being one of the key aspects of the games, trading is exceptionally rare in the {{pkmn|anime}}. Only a few trades have been shown taking place, and only six of them thus far have been truly significant, often taking place in episodes featuring the [[Magikarp salesman]].

Rather than simply exchanging Pokémon, most trades are carried out by placing [[Poké Ball]]s into a specialized [[Trade machine|trading machine]], with a monitor that displays silhouettes of the two Pokémon as they pass each other. | Despite it being one of the key aspects of the games, trading is exceptionally rare in the {{pkmn|anime}}.
