Basically, any trade that includes a Shiny, Legendary, or Pokémon you haven’t registered in your Pokédex yet is considered special. More stardust, more fun!
Shiny, Legendary, or Pokémon you don’t have yet. Simple as that!
From experience, I can tell you that trading a Mewtwo costs a lot more Stardust than trading a Pidgey. That's because it's a Special Trade!
