"Why do people want trading?"

#PokemonGO: I've been grinding away to level 24 now and have got over 100 Pokemon due to a combination of perserverence and travelling to new places.I see a lot of people calling for trading, but I have to ask, why?With gym battles being notably unrewarding, completing the Pokedex is my main goal at the moment. And I can't help but feel that if I could simply trade for the ones I don't have, it would make the collection part of the game unrewarding, too.I have no doubts that if trading were already implemented, I would have completed the Pokedex by now (minus Ditto and the legendaries, of course). In such a scenario, my time playing Pokemon Go would probably be at an end.For example, I've hatched about 5 Jynx. I'm still hunting for an elusive Magmar, which doesn't seem to spawn near me, so I have to keep hatching those 10k-ers. If trading were available, I'd undoubtedly be able to swap my Jynx for a Magmar.The region-exclusives would instantly be redundant, as North American players would be lining up to swap their second Tauros for my second Mr Mime.Completing the Pokedex is supposed to be hard. I just feel that trading would be the death of the game by making Pokedex progress too easy.(On second thought, completing the Pokedex should at least be possible and the region-exclusives are an impossible barrier for most, so they are the only positive example of trading I can think of.) via /r/TheSilphRoad http://ift.tt/2bTLhna
