Pokémon TCG Pocket's trading feature launch has been underwhelming, despite high player demand. To compensate, developers are giving away 1000 Trade Tokens via the in-game Gifts menu while they rework the trading system. This follows previous announcements of planned improvements to make trading easier and address player concerns.
Many players criticized the initial trading restrictions, such as rarity limitations and the requirement of Trade Tokens, a currency needed to facilitate trades. These restrictions, while intended to prevent exploitation, proved contentious.
Reworking Trading
A simpler approach might have been to either implement completely open trading or forgo the feature altogether. While concerns about bots and exploitation are valid, the existing restrictions likely posed minimal challenges to determined players.
The upcoming trading rework is crucial. A well-implemented digital trading system could significantly enhance Pokémon TCG Pocket's appeal as a viable alternative to the physical card game.
