In Generation IV there is a glitch with the GTS that allows Pokémon to evolve by being traded, but without actually trading them. Players must first place a Pokémon that evolves by trading it (with the correct held item, like Metal Coat for Scyther or Electirizer for Electabuzz) onto the GTS. To prevent the deposited Pokémon from being traded away, players should request an impossible trade, such as a level 9 and under Mewtwo.
The player must then search for a Pokémon on the GTS and trade for it. After this has been done, returning to the Pokémon that was placed on the GTS by the player and taking it back will cause it to evolve.
Obviously you're gonna need to do the DNS exploit to reinstate wifi, but i'm not really sure how R4 cards interact with wifi (iirc it depends on the cart but i think there could be workarounds).

I've always found this to be an annoying mechanic considering I love the pokemon you have to trade to evolve. I feel that this, as well as the boosted exp, are just gimmicks to get people to use the trading system that some Japanese coder was very proud of. It has gotten better considering that there is online trading now. | |
