is it possible to trade in the digital version of Pokemon Gold?

I've just bought and downloaded Pokemon Gold for my 3DS.

Is it possible for me to trade pokemon with other players somehow? Say, if I wanted an Alakazam or something, which would require trading?

Yes, From the press release it says you can use the wireless features just as was done in Red/Blue/Yellow with Gold and Silver.

As with the Virtual Console versions of Pokemon Red and Blue, and Pokemon Yellow: Special Pikachu Edition, Gold and Silver will be compatible with the 3DS wireless communication feature, which means Link Trades and Link Battles between the Virtual Console versions.
