So I was on PSS today and there was one insistent person who wanted to trade off his Shiny Latias to me, and only me (god knows why!) but I didn't want it, but he kept on giving me trade requests and even changed his message to this!



And then there was one kid who requested a trade too, and she put up a Fletchling, a Fennekin, a Zigzagoon and a Scatterbug. I guessed she was new because she didn't have anything in her boxes either. I had extra starters at that time, so I traded her a Froakie and a Snivy for a Pidgey and a Fletchling. Then she put up a Scatterbug and I put up a Charmander, and she cancelled the trade. Wondering why, I tried putting up a Turtwig. She cancelled that trade too. I put up more starters, and she cancelled every single one. It was weird, so I decided to drop out of that trade.

Then after quitting the trade she insisted that we trade again, but I declined and gave her an O-Power because I had no idea what she actually wanted.... until she posted a Shout-Out with my name in it:



Oh... so she wanted a Chespin. So since I was near the daycare I dropped off Chestnut, my Chesnaught, to breed her an egg, and I traded her again, putting up Chestnut first, then only the egg, as an attempt to tell her it's a Chespin egg. I thought she got the idea when she traded her Scatterbug for the egg, but then she put up a Fletchling with the nickname "Chespin?" again!

Oh well, I tried to cancel her trades so she'd get the idea to hatch her egg, but she kept on giving me trade requests and still didn't change her shoutout status, so I accepted it. In her box I saw one white tile, which meant she didn't actually hatch her egg at all! She put up the Fletchling called "Chespin?" again, so instead of trading anything I put up Chestnut, then an egg, then Chestnut, then an egg, then Chestnut, then an egg again and eventually I think she got the idea, because she cancelled the trade -- lucky for her to get what I meant eventually!

But wow, seeing two of my Acquaintances putting my name in their statuses... that was totally weird.
