One thing is, I honestly can't trade at all right now. If I run to a Best Buy and spend a few hours trying to find a mobile hotspot that actually consistently works, I *might* be able to to connect to wifi, but that costs time and money, and, like the last hotspot, it may just not allow me to interact with other players for some reason sometimes.
The Latios is very important to me, and I really can't just let it go for anything. It was, including the playthrough made almost exclusively to obtain it, a ~30 hour endeavor. I only really want things that I cannot obtain myself right now, things like 3rd Gen RNGs, or some XD Pokemon. Almost everything else I can obtain with only a little more time spent than the whole process of the trade: cloning, getting a FC, possibly waiting a while online, trading everything, etc. (and that doesn't count the possibility of bad connections)
