Pokemon TCG Pocket trading announcement
On January 17, 2024, at 6:00 a.m. GMT+8, the developers of Pokemon TCG Pocket made a thrilling announcement: several exciting new features are coming to the game. Among these exciting additions was the highly anticipated trading feature.
As this new feature is still in its early stages, trading options appear to be somewhat limited. Players will find that they can’t trade everything with everyone just yet.
The post details five limitations to the upcoming Pokemon TCG Pocket trading system:
- Trades can be done between friends.
- Trades can be done with cards of the same rarity.
- At the time of the trade feature’s launch, certain cards from the Genetic Apex and Mythical Island booster packs will be able to be traded. The developers are planning to continue to expand the selection of booster packs that you can trade from.
- Cards with a rarity of 1 till four diamonds, and 1 star can be traded.
- Items must be consumed in order to trade.
Though you may not be able to easily collect rare cards via trading, you can now start saving your pack points for rare cards while trading for cheaper cards with your friends.
