Pokémon TCG Pocket Trading Feature Arrives January 29th
The long-awaited card trading functionality launches in Pokémon TCG Pocket on January 29th, introducing digital versions of valuable collectible exchanges.
Trading works similarly to physical card swaps - players can exchange cards of specific rarities with friends. The system utilizes trade hourglasses and special tokens to facilitate transactions, bringing authentic TCG experiences into the digital space.
Space-Time Smackdown Expansion Following on January 30th
Just one day after the trading debut, Pokémon TCG Pocket will release its Space-Time Smackdown expansion featuring beloved Sinnoh region creatures. This update introduces two new digital booster packs starring legendary Pokémon Dialga and Palkia.
The expansion also includes fan-favorites like Lucario and Sinnoh's starter trio: Turtwig, Chimchar, and Piplup. Players can obtain these cards through traditional booster packs or the Wonder Pick feature.
While excitement builds for these new additions, some players have expressed concerns about trading mechanics. Developers assure ongoing adjustments will optimize the trading experience.
