Pokémon TCG Pocket launches its hotly-anticipated trading feature and Space-Time Smackdown

Pokémon TCG Pocket's Trading Feature Launches, Met with Mixed Reception; New Expansion Arrives!

January's end brings exciting news for Pokémon TCG Pocket fans: the highly anticipated trading feature is finally here, alongside the major Space-Time Smackdown expansion!

The trading system lets players exchange cards with friends, mirroring real-life trading. However, there are limitations. Only certain card rarities (1-4 and 1-star) are tradeable, and trading requires resources like trade hourglasses and tokens. Despite these restrictions, it's a significant addition to the game.

The Space-Time Smackdown expansion introduces iconic Legendary Pokémon Dialga and Palkia, Sinnoh region starters Turtwig, Chimchar, and Piplup, and much more!

The trading feature's launch hasn't been universally praised; initial player feedback has been less than enthusiastic. While the feature itself is a positive addition, the numerous caveats are a significant drawback. Many feel the game would have benefited from either omitting trading entirely or implementing a more accessible, unrestricted system. Developers are reportedly monitoring player response, suggesting potential future adjustments.

For players returning to the game, our guide to the best starting decks in Pokémon TCG Pocket is a helpful resource.
