Last night I was playing around with Wonder Trade in Pokemon X, pretty much sending out baby Oshawott that I've been breeding.
I scored a Shiny Gourgeist! Last thing I was expecting, especially since I've spent the last 2 days trying to find a Shiny Pumpkaboo in the wild, with no success.
Shortly after I got a Japanese Ditto, which I've been looking for so I can test breeding for shinies.

How do you all feel about Wonder Trade?
What kind of Pokemon have you come across?
 
I love the WT! I use the Matsuda method a lot, so I trade away not-shiny-but-still-good Mons in their hundreds, and have gotten a ton of good stuff. A crapton of Route 1 trash also, but some shinies, Hidden Abilities, perfect IVs, legendaries and more :)
 
Oh, nice! Congrats!

Personally, I've only gotten a shiny, but I don't play Pok?mon that often anymore. Mostly I got basic ones, like Pidgey. I did use it when I still played often to get new Pok?mon so I could continue working on my dex, I would evolve one and then WT until I got something I hadn't had before and could evolve.
 
I'm really indifferent about wonder trade. I have gotten new pokedex entries, perfect IV pokemon, and a shiny hacked Thundurus once. Besides for those, 99% of my wonder trades end up being crap Route 1 pokemon or those that I am not looking for.
 
I'm indifferent, as I can get a nice pokemon, but more often then not, I just get crap route 1 pokemon (although I have successfully done a Wonderlocke.)
 
I like WT. It gets annoying if you try it too often or for too long but if you give it a break and return to it some weeks or months later, it's harder to get sick of it. I like not knowing which Pok?mon I'm going to get and I enjoy passing on the ones I've gotten through WT as well.

The best I got was probably a Japanese Ditto within my first week of playing. There were others I liked but more for Dex completion or saving me the trouble of catching them than because of being particularly valuable.
 
I got a shiny Latios (named Onaga), a shiny Mewtwo (don't know why), and a shiny Hitmonlee named Bruce. So overall I like it!

I've come across a Shiny Alakazam and a Shiny Snivy in Wonder Trade. It's too bad that the Snivy was obviously hacked since it was in a Safari Ball. :( At least it came in handy when I wanted to complete the dex, lol.
 
Oh wow! I loooove wonder trading! It's so much fun, I love the suspense... Are you gonna get something good, something bad? Well, probably something bad, but to be honest you can just trade the terrible Pokemon again and again until you actually get something great. I once got a lovely little shiny Ralts which I evolved into a Kirlia, then into a Gallade.
 
Wonder Trade is alright. A majority of the stuff I have acquired on there is, as others have said, first route trash. I've acquired a few nice things though, including a shiny Blue-Striped Basculin. I do my part to try to improve the experience by giving away 4 IV or 5 IV Pokemon with egg moves, Pokerus, and good natures that I usually have a ton of due to shiny hunting.

I got a shiny emongla and shiny latias from Wonder trade. I was shocked when a saw a gold latias coming my way. The latias also had pokerus so i was so lucky
 
I got a hacked rayquazza but that is all that is good but I have sent out a shiny cubone and another shiny I can't remember
 
So far, I've received a shiny espurr and poochyena through wonder trade. I've sent out a shiny bulbasaur and mawile after I bred more than one, but mostly I send out pokemon with hidden abilities that I get whilst breeding for shinies.
