Pokémon TCG Pocket: Trading Feature Details Released Before ex Drop Event

For fans of Pokémon TCG Pocket, the eagerly anticipated trading feature has been a mixed bag. While many welcomed its introduction, the reality of its implementation—marked by numerous restrictions on who you can trade with and what cards are eligible—has led to some dissatisfaction among players.

The good news is that the team behind Pokémon TCG Pocket has acknowledged these concerns. In a recent statement, they highlighted that the trading mechanics were designed with safeguards against bots and other unauthorized activities. This shows they're listening to player feedback, which is a positive step.

However, don't expect immediate changes to the trading system. The only concrete update we're likely to see soon involves new methods for acquiring trading currency. This currency, crucial to the trading mechanic, will now be available through various channels, including event distributions.

Stating your case

While these adjustments are a step in the right direction, it's understandable if you're feeling let down by the lack of more substantial changes. Trading is a cornerstone of the physical Pokémon TCG, and its digital counterpart faces unique challenges. Many of us hoped for a smoother launch of this feature.

Nevertheless, the developers are paying attention, and with the new ex Drop Event featuring Cresselia underway, you can dive into this latest event with renewed confidence.
