Optimistic Pokemon Sword/Shield Server (help me understand)

This is a long shot but hopefully, someone can help me understand how this works. This is a Discord server that offers multiple bots to interact with where you can obtain basically any Pokemon that's legal within Pokemon Sword/Shield.

You go to a website where you can create a text copy of the Pokemon you're after. Once you enter the command with the text copy of your Pokemon (example below) you'll be entered into a queue and then will be given a code when it's your turn. Once you receive that private code through Discord, you then have to enter the code on link trade through Pokemon Sword/Shield and then you'll receive that Pokemon you have requested.

I'm not trying to copy this idea, I'm simply trying to understand the process and how a Discord bot can take your required Pokemon, create this Pokemon, Implement this Pokemon into the game, start the game and then open up a private trade link with a user?

Command example:

Here's a video of the process in action.

Command example:

Code:

.trade Charmander (M) @ Life Orb
Ability: Blaze
Level: 100
Shiny: Yes
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
- Flame Charge
- Flamethrower
- Fire Blast
- Crunch

Here's a video of the process in action.

After some digging. I found out that it involves a program called "Sysbot" and that program interacts with both your Discord server and your Nintendo Switch once homebrew as been installed on that device. I thought the process was more complicated. :monkey:
