What is Safetrade?
SafeTrade is a server feature designed to allow players to trade securely with one another. Through this system, players can exchange Pokemon, PokeCoins, Gems and items in a protected trading system.

Additionally there is logs that are saved which are maintained behind the scenes allowing staff to review transactions and address any issues that may arise, including attempted scams or other disputes between players.
/tradeHow do I perform a Safetrade?
Performing a Safetrade is a straightforward process. However, to proceed, another player must first accept your Safetrade request before you can begin using this feature. To initiate a trade, simply use the command /trade <user>, which will send a trade request to the specified player.
/trade InterfaceIf a player sends you a trade request, you will receive a notification in the public chat. From there, you may click the accept option to initiate the trade.
From there, you will be able to add the items or Pokémon you wish to include in the trade. You may select Pokémon from your party to place into the trade, as illustrated in the images below:
You may also add PokeCoins and Gems to the trade by selecting the “Add Money” option and entering the exact amounts you wish to include, as shown in the images below:
Once you are satisfied with the trade, you will see several red glass panes displayed at the bottom of the trade interface.
/tradeOnce you click to confirm the trade, you will be locked in. After the other player confirms as well, a timer will begin for the trade to be completed. If you decide to cancel the trade during this period, you may click the same buttons again to stop the timer.
Once the trade has been completed and the interface has closed, you will receive a notification in the chat confirming its completion. Any items or Pokémon you offered will be transferred to the other player, and you will likewise receive the items or Pokémon they offered in return.
What are the benefits to Safetrade?
It is highly recommended that players use SafeTrade to avoid instances of attempted scams, which can occur easily without this feature. For example a player could receive an item and then teleport away without completing the trade.
SafeTrade also provides the convenience of trading everything you need in a single location, eliminating the need to navigate multiple trading paths. Additionally it supports cross server trades allowing you to trade from your realm while the other player is in the wilds without any issues arising.
SafeTrade is the only method for exchanging PokeCoins and Gems, so any trades involving these as payment must be completed through this feature.
Finally, Safetrade maintains full logs of all completed trades, enabling staff to quickly and efficiently handle any disputes or reports of scams should they arise within support tickets.
