How to Use Trade Codes in Pokemon Legends: Z-A
To use these trade codes, open the menu and select Link Play. Then, choose Link Trade and select Faraway Players. The game will then prompt you to enter a link code. Here, just enter the trade code for the Pokemon you’re trying to trade.
If you did everything correctly, you should receive an identical Pokemon from another online player. You’ll both end up with the evolved form of the Pokemon. Don’t expect to get it back, though. These link codes are just meant to give players an easy way to get trade evolutions, so don’t give away a specific Kadabra that you’re particularly attached to or anything like that.
Remember that these link codes only work if other players are using them at the same time, so you may not find any trade partners if you’re playing Pokemon Legends: Z-A at a slow time when players aren’t online. You can always try again later if that’s the case. Since these trade codes are being spread online, you’re bound to find someone else using them eventually.
These trade codes are incredibly helpful for filling your Pokemon Legends: Z-A Pokedex. Just make sure you have the right items if you’re trading a Pokemon like Spritzee or Swirlix; otherwise, the trade won’t make them evolve.
