Pokemon BDSP - Sphere Trader List

Sphere Traders no longer stock traps in their inventory. These NPCs now sell pedestals that you can use to decorate your statues, along with TMs, spheres, and treasures.

How Were Traps Used in the Original Games?

In the original games, traps were one-time use items that you could bury within your Secret Base and the tunnles in the Underground.

There were many traps available and were primarily used to deter other players from stealing your flag. These traps could be purchased anywhere from Sphere Traders.

Combine Traps for Better Results

It was possible to combine traps in the original games to magnify their trapping effect and further deter players from capturing your flag.

A popular combination were Alert and Crater Traps, with the Alert Trap distracting the player who would eventually fall into the Crater Trap.
