Floette-Eternal?

[eleganzis]

Hello, with the advent of pokemon champions I have been able to use my modded 3ds and the pokemon bank to send myself all the pokemons I need up to gen 7, but I recently discovered that Eternal-Floette can be obtained only if you buy pokemon legends ZA or if someone trades it to you, but exactly how does it work? I have only one switch game which is pokemon pearl, how can someone send me floette eternal there if that alternate form doesn't exist there? Can someone clarify how does it work? Thank you!

1. Buy Z-A and obtain it yourself or obtain it from a trade.

2. Use HOME and obtain it from a trade.

How do I get it from a trade in home? In that app I see only note, transfer, pokemon go, points, settings and champions

Find a human to trade you theirs by offering something of equal value.

Hello everyone! With the arrival of Pokémon Champions, I've been able to use my modded 3DS and Pokémon Bank to send myself all the Pokémon I need up to Gen 7, which has been great so far. But I recently ran into something confusing.

I discovered that Eternal Floette can only be obtained if you buy Pokémon Legends ZA, or if someone trades it to you. Here's where I'm stuck: the only Switch game I own is Pokémon Pearl. So how can someone send me Eternal Floette there if that alternate form doesn't even exist in Pearl? Does it convert into something else during the trade, or does it just not work at all?

Sorry if this is a basic question, I've been juggling a lot lately. Between sorting out my living dex and unwinding with a few rounds at https://lgl.io/ fast payout casinos in the evenings (honestly the quick withdrawals are the only reason I bother), my brain is a bit fried trying to keep track of all these transfer rules.

Anyway, if anyone could clarify exactly how the Eternal Floette trade works across games, I'd really appreciate it. Thanks in advance!

If Brilliant Diamond/Shining Pearl doesn’t have data for it, nobody can trade or move it there - you’d need a compatible game first.
