Pokémon TCG Pocket Unveils Trading Feature with New Card Set Release
Staff Editor The Pokémon Company (TCPi) has announced the imminent launch of a highly anticipated trading feature for Pokémon TCG Pocket. Set to coincide with the release of the next card set later this month, the exact date for this update remains undisclosed.
The new trading system comes with several restrictions and requirements. Players will only be able to trade with those on their in-game friends list, and exchanges are limited to cards of matching rarity levels. Eligible cards for trade include those with rarities of 1-4 diamonds or single-star full-art cards. Additionally, the trading process will necessitate the consumption of specific in-game items.
While details about the required items for trading remain unclear, it’s speculated that Poké gold, the game’s purchasable currency, may play a significant role. This has led to discussions about the potential economic impact of the trading system, with some viewing it as a strategy to boost revenue through increased in-game currency purchases.
In response to community concerns, the official Pokémon TCG Pocket account has acknowledged player feedback. They’ve encouraged users to share their experiences post-launch, emphasizing their commitment to refining the feature based on real-world usage and player input.
As the trading feature’s release approaches, the Pokémon TCG Pocket community eagerly awaits its implementation, curious to see how it will shape the game’s dynamics and economy.
