the first pokemon i traded was a magikarp for a geodude it was bc i never had a geodude before and mgikarp was getting lame so, it was in leaf green i traded with my friend when we were 8 with our gameboy advance and the trading cord it was some work but it was well worth and later on after i got it to its second form we traded again so i could get golem and that was a great day, i worked and tranied it well it was lvl 100 after i was done with it and the only times it fainted were when i used self destruct!!!
