I got a few ok things, Deino, Vivillion, Scatterbugs which I'll eventually evolve. Lots of junk of course, but also a Fennekin and Eevee.
The only thing that annoys me is all the Japanese things. It wouldn't bother me if I could at least Nickname them if they didn't get a nickname, but I really don't see the point in those japanese signs.
Also keep giving things with natures I didn't want. The really sad thing is that, no matter how often you use this, there's always that knowledge that all the things you get are things that you could easily get yourself at some point... with everything not in the Kalos dex being completely unavailable so far, only the handful of version specifics and starters are left unattainable by yourself, you know? So really, right now, besides getting pokemiles and filling the dex early, theres not much reason to use wondertrade at all :/

Sent a Caterpie I'd received in a previous Wonder Trade and received an Amaura(I picked Tyrunt), that's got to be the best trade so far.

Also had a pretty weird trade, sent a Japanese Lunatone and received an almost identical Japanese Lunatone.

I sent out a Haunter fresh from Victory Road, got a level 7 Flabebe. Somebody in Iowa is very happy about that trade.

As far as good trades for me, I sent out a Caterpie and got a level 41 Beartic.

It's a regional thing. Much like we're sending English characters over to Japan, and I'm sure they're tired of it too. I've gotten a ton of good Jap. pokemon that I'm keeping just so I can say I have them.

Also, if you check your pokedex, you can actually fill the pokedex with different languages as well as English (Ie you get a french skitty, you'll get the French Pokedex Entry as well as the English one). This means you have a potential of like 12 pokedex's you can fill up (not sure on the exact count because I don't know how many different languages there are, just ballparking that number.)

Well, the first trade I made was a Bunnelby, and I received a Riolu.
That's pretty awesome for a first trade :)
I must've tried at least 30 times since then and I haven't gotten a single thing worth keeping. Well, I did get a Mawile, but it had a dumb nickname, and I caught one myself a bit later on just so I could have one without a nickname.

It is possible to buy/receive the Blastoisenite at some point of the game?? My new squirtle begs to become a MegaBlastoise and I will not decline to it :)
It's possible you might be able to buy it in the stone shop in Lumiose City (where they sell fire stone etc). The guy on the top left wanted to sell me Venusaurite for $500,000 (I already have Blastoisinite since I picked Squirtle as my gen1 starter), it's possible he may sell the other ones too.

Trade 1: Started with a newly caught Pikachu, Level 5, named Lucky.
Pikachu > Pichu (JPN) >Absol

Trade 2: Started with a newly caught Caterpie
Caterpie > Panpour > Pidgey > Sinteret > Quigsire > Pidgey > Pikachu (JPN) > Seviper

I just keep rolling the dice with "extra" Pokemon till I get something that I like. It could be possible to get a legendary or possible to get a high-demand Pokemon for leverage on the GTS. I love this feature, along with the O-Powers.

For me i chose, charzard and the same guy is selling me a blastoisinite for 1,000,000.(RIP OFF)
I guess it'll change depending on what starter you chose.

Anyway, you guys are making me want to try out the wonder trade later today, i have yet to try it.
I got a bunch a pokemom caught already(i try to catch all in one area before moving on) so ill probably trade one i dont like (bunelby lol)

My sister accidentally put a Level 1 Shiny Eevee in Wonder Trade. I don't know what she got for it but it can't have been worth it...

I traded 2 zigzagoons and got a charmander and a squirtle.
I had chosen bulbasaur, so I have the Kanto starters trio.
I also got a Honedge with Pokérus for a zigzagoon.
I traded a gible lvl 31 and received a flabebe, later I traded the same flabebe and received a chespin.

Wonder trade is really marvelous.
