How to get a guaranteed happy pokemon
There is Two ways you can get a guaranteed happy Pokémon.
The first way is Through a phenomenon called Lucky Friends. When you are lucky friends with another coach, the next trade you do with them is guaranteed to give you a happy Pokémon.
To become happy friends, you must first reach the best friend's level, first. There is a chance that you become happy friends with them when they reach the best friends. If this does not happen, there is a chance that you become happy friends every time you interact with your best friend in a way that would normally increase your friendship level (ie make raid, open gifts etc.) once a day.
It is a very low chance, but it happens often enough that you get one or two. You can even become happy friends more than once with the same player.
The second method is by trading all Pokémon captured in 2019 or earlier, Usually guarantees that a happy trade will occur. That being said, there are some restrictions on this method.
There is a maximum number of guaranteed happy business that every player can do: 35. For this reason, the player who deals with the guaranteed Lucky Pokémon must have been involved in less than 35 guaranteed happy business, whether it is as the sender or the recipient.
You may have accidentally completed a guaranteed happy trade unknowingly earlier.
Make sure you keep this in mind if you approach the maximum number of guaranteed happy business you can do.
