The Trade Feature was added to Pokémon Trading Card Game Pocket on January 29th, 2025 but most of the feedback about the feature has been negative due to the requirements needed to trade a card. They have now announced that all players will be receiving 1,000 trade tokens as a gift while they continue investigating ways to improve the feature.

Pocket Trading Feature Update (January 31st, 2025)

Since releasing the first iteration of the trading feature a few days ago, we have received a large number of comments. Thank you all for sharing your feedback.

The item requirements and restrictions implemented for the trading feature were designed to prevent abuse from bots and other prohibited actions using multiple accounts. Our goal was to balance the game while maintaining a fair environment for all players and preserving the fun of collecting cards that is core to the Pokémon TCG Pocket experience.

However, thanks to your feedback, we understand that some of the restrictions put in place are preventing players from being able to casually enjoy the feature as intended. We are actively investigating ways to improve the feature to address these concerns. Going forward, we also plan to offer multiple ways to obtain trade tokens including through event distributions.

As always, thank you for being part of the Pokémon TCG Pocket community.
