louiseharatt 10 Posted March 26, 2014 Hello everybody, I was wondering if somebody could possibly help me? After searching through the forums unable to find an answer my question; I thought it best I create this thread to share the response with anybody else who this be of interest to. Under the 'Met' tab in PokéGen and the Location option. There is 'Link Trade' and 'Link Trade (2)'. First of all I was wondering if somebody could tell me what the difference is between them? Secondly I was wondering if one of these options was set as it's location would it grow exp. faster than normal caught Pokémon as a normally traded PKM would? Thanks all L x Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
evandixon 696 Posted March 27, 2014 1. I don't know. Did you change Options -> Target Game to Soul Silver? That will make it load only the Soul Silver locations, and maybe there won't be two. 2. No, a Pokémon is identified as traded if the Trainer ID/SID/Name are not yours. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VeganButcher1 10 Posted April 3, 2014 From what I understand, the (2) in parentheses indicates a flag telling the game the Pokemon was hatched while being in someone elses game through the entralink. Better safe than sorry so just go with the 'normal' met location and you shouldn't run into trouble. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Codr 11 Posted April 3, 2014 The 2 simply represents a duplicate location value with the same name. For whatever reason, the game has several locations that have duplicates. It's no more mysterious than that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
krskull 10 Posted April 4, 2014 May I ask if the duplicated location value serve any purpose within the game? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
