Pokémon TCG Pocket: New Trading Feature Detailed

by Jack Mar 14,2025

Pokémon TCG Pocket is adding a highly anticipated trading system, bringing the thrill of real-life card swapping to the digital world. Launching later this month, this feature will let you trade cards with friends, adding a new layer of social interaction to the game.

The trading mechanics are designed with fairness in mind. Currently, trades are limited to cards of the same rarity (1 to 4 stars) and only between friends. To ensure a balanced exchange, traded cards are consumed, meaning you won't retain a copy after the trade.

The developers plan to closely monitor the system's performance post-launch, making adjustments as needed to optimize the trading experience.

While some limitations exist—like specific rarity tiers not being tradeable and the potential use of consumable currencies—the initial implementation is a promising step towards a robust trading system. The developers' commitment to ongoing assessment and refinement is reassuring. We anticipate further clarification on these points closer to the release date.
