Almost got badge #5, but...

[ISNorden]

I know I'm sounding clueless here, but...how do you get the game to recognize your Internet connection? I'm at the Burole Town Pokémon Center and just tried to get into the GTS; the game told me I needed a connection. (I'm running Win10 64-bit Home Edition with an Ethernet hookup, if that helps; my copy of Uranium is up to date.)

[AgentParadox]

I'm not really sure, you could try restarting your computer.

[ISNorden]

I think the online ID is more important. Mine is 240155. What you could do is deposit a Pokémon to the GTS and ask for a Com Mon or other Pokémon (common Pokémon) in return and then put one of your Pokémon on the GTS so I can search for it and then do the same with the other.

Finally got trade working!  My ID is #250624; is the deal still on?

[AgentParadox]

Oh good, yes.

[ISNorden]

OK. I'll put in a couple of Birbie requests so you'll know what to look for.

...Uh-oh, I got a Birbie and my Sponaree is gone.

[AgentParadox]

The Sponaree is traded, now for the other. (Thought you said you wanted Birbie for them anyway)

[ISNorden]

Oh, Bob was you? My bad, sending Folerog over.

[AgentParadox]

Yeah, couldn't think of a name.

[AgentParadox]

Okay, traded.

[AgentParadox]

Okay, both are ready to be traded back. Your Folerog evolved into Blubelrog, and both are at level 39.
