Best lucky trade targets (2026)
The best lucky trade targets are Mewtwo, Rayquaza, Dialga, Palkia, Giratina, Kyogre, Groudon, and Reshiram — Lucky mons cost half the stardust to level, making ML builds dramatically cheaper.
Lucky mons cost 50% less stardust to power up. For ML builds (L50 + Best Buddy = ~750k dust normally), a Lucky cuts this to ~375k. Over a roster of 6 ML attackers this is a massive saving.
Trades from pre-2020 mons have a 4× higher Lucky rate. If you have an old Friend with vault mons from 2017-2019, prioritize those trades.
Which of these do you already have?
Hundo Hunter scans your storage and shows the IVs and functional hundos for every mon you have caught, so you can see which of these you can already power up instead of hunting for new ones.
