1515 Any Pokemon with the Recycle specialty can recycle wastepaper. Common early-game options include Trubbish and Garbodor. Place a community box near your Recycle Pokemon's home, drop wastepaper into it, and the Pokemon will work through the pile passively.

1717 The Recycle conversion rate is favourable for the player: one piece of Wastepaper becomes two pieces of Paper. That means a Recycle-specialty Pokemon effectively doubles every pile you feed it, so an active Litter-and-Recycle pair becomes a steady passive Paper generator once you set it up.
