+## Dynamic Trade Names
+

+StringCopy(gStringVar1, ingameTrade->otName);
+StringCopy10(gStringVar3, ingameTrade->nickname);
+GetMonData(&gPlayerParty[gSpecialVar_0x8005], MON_DATA_NICKNAME, name);
+StringCopy10(gStringVar2, name);
+```
+with:
+```c
+GetMonData(&gEnemyParty[0], MON_DATA_OT_NAME, gStringVar1);
+GetMonData(&gEnemyParty[0], MON_DATA_NICKNAME, name);
+StringCopy10(gStringVar3, name);
+GetMonData(&gPlayerParty[gSpecialVar_0x8005], MON_DATA_NICKNAME, name);
+StringCopy10(gStringVar2, name);
+```
+
