Steps:
When attempting to trade 12x Pulchridopt Wings to Emporox in Reisenjima nothing happens. They are supposed to accept them and unlock the Skirmisher Goodness I category in their Potpourri shop but nothing happens.

I have Potpourri unlocked and I have already unlocked the Voidwatcher Goodness category by trading him 99x Crystal Petrifacts so this should work.

Have you turned in the 100 merit points needed to access his shop?

Yes, it's in my description. I have unlocked Potpourri and traded him 99 Crystal Petrifacts to unlock Voidwatcher Goodness I.

Have you ever done a single skirmish? It may not have been tested on any of the wiki's because old accounts have likely done one before it was added, but there maybe additional requirements for each category. IE having done skirmish once, unlocking access to it from npcs in adoulin.

Fair point. I have done some for sure. Rala, Cirdas, and Yorcia I've done a couple times each. Alluvion Skirmish I've done twice. Then to get the 12 Pulchridopt wings I did Ra'Kaznar Skirmish 5-6 times in a row. I'm not sure what other requirement there could be but it's possible there's something unknown. I'd be curious to hear from someone who trades the wings to unlock this category now and see if it's just me. It's definitely not a mistake on my part. At least according to the wiki I am trading him the correct wings. Definitely 12 of them. I've trade 3 or 4 times over the last few days and he still won't take them. Maybe there's other categories I need to unlock first.

I know this is a dumb question but I have to ask because I've done it myself: You're sure you don't already have it unlocked, right?

I do not. the only category I've unlocked is Voidwatcher Goodness I.

Any chance you did Skirmish before this was added (not that I am certain that it matters)?

I'd check a look if they are still listed under 'Check what items to collect.', or if it is listing 'Mellidopt Wings' instead.

I've seen that on one character, but it very well may not have done any Skirmish yet. I also don't remember having traded 'Pulchridopt Wings' yet, but in any case, that one has 'Mellidopt Wings' listed to be delivered, and only 'Pot-filler goodness.' under the choices.

Well first of all, you're right. It's dumb but I was unaware Emporox had an option that showed these trade-ins. It does in fact show 12 Mellidopt Wings but not Pulchridopt but now there's another problem. Based on the wiki entry for Delve Goodness I and II I went there with 24 Airlixir +1 and he would not accept them. This is when I checked with Emporox what items to collect and it also shows 48 Airlixir +1 which was supposed to be for Delve Goodness II which didn't make sense since I never unlocked Delve Goodness I. So I warped back and grabbed more Airlixir +1 and traded him 48 of them which he DID accept. But here's the problem. It unlocked the category "Delve Goodness: 2" but the items available are from the first Delve Goodness category such as Aster Yggrete Shard V that costs 100 Potpourri. There are 4 pages in the category, 2 of which are empty. The first 2 pages are the Delve Goodness I items (Shards). The 3rd page has the options 'None', 'Previous Page', and 'Next Page'. The 4th page options are 'None', and 'Previous Page'. So essentially that category is now bricked because I've unlocked 'Delve Goodness II' before I unlocked 'Delve Goodness I' and it totally broke the category.

I suspect the same thing will happen if I trade in 12 Mellidopt Wings. When I ask her what items to collect and select Mellidopt Wings she says this "Go bring Emporox 12 Mellidopt wings and then she know that Dandy-man good Skirmisher, yes? Emporox give goodness score of 2 is come back alive. Good Deal, yes?" So if I give 12 Mellidopt Wings it will unlock "Skirmisher Goodness: 2" but I'm guess it will have the Category 1 items with extra empty pages and no way to unlock the category 2 items. This is actually what I want, to be able to buy the base upgrade stones for 200 Potpourri a stack, but Emporox is still broken.

Need someone else who doesn't have these things unlocked to try it. All I did was Give her 100 merit points to unlock the shop and then a few days after I gave her 99 Crystal Petrifact which she accepted and opened 'Voidwatcher Goodness: 1". It does correctly show she wants 198 of them for the next Voidwatcher category, but something seems to have been broken.

Thank you for the additional info!

I should have some characters I can test things out a bit, but it may take a while, and this report will likely be processed during that while, and locked.

If/when I get to it, I will report it with any new findings if need be (and unless someone else gets to it first), or discuss it in the discussion forums here that don't have the same time limit.
