    Let's break this down:
    "Ghetsis and Mindy are more frightening than all of Rainbow Rocket".
    Ghetsis is *in* RR, so that cancels out. Meaning Mindy is a bigger criminal than _successful versions_ of Archie, Maxie, Cyrus, Lysandre, AND a Giovanni with Mewtwo and the capacity to invade *our actual world via Pokemon GO* .
    Yeah that sounds right, she's pure evil.

      If this is true, it's not recorded anywhere in the bulbapedia pages regarding Gen 4 glitches or the one on in game trades, and there doesn't seem to be anyone else who's brought this up... so I kind of doubt it's true. Sure, people could just not know, and bulbapedia could be inaccurate... but nothing at all?
      There is, however, a glitch making it possible to evolve trade evos in gen 4 through the GTS without actually trading them. So we kind of have the opposite of this.

    In Ruby/Sapphire, there's a trade in Pacifidlog Town asking for a Bellossom in exchange for a Corsola.
    Corsola is kind of a pain to find in Hoenn. I think you need to use the Super Rod in the water below Evergrande City or something like that. But Bellossom is even more precious (especially for Sapphire), because you only get 1 Sun Stone in a playthrough and you can only get new ones from wild Solrock (5% chance for them to hold one).

    I realized recently the devs probably gave Mindy's haunter an everstone at the last minute because it is possible to get a Gengar in DPPt through having GBA Pokemon game inserted into the DS. So basically they made Mindy a jerk because of a game mechanic GF probably added towards the end of development and they didn't want her trade bogging down the rarity of the GBA insertion Gengar.

      No, it was given an everstone to mask that NPC trades were glitched in that gen. Even if it didn't have an everstone, it was glitched to not evolve and I guess they didn't have time to fix it, just add a few lines and quickly move on.

    • @functional200
