If you've been eagerly awaiting the release of the upcoming trading feature for Pokémon TCG Pocket, your wait is almost over. The much-anticipated trading feature is set to launch on January 29th, closely followed by a brand-new expansion, Space-Time Smackdown, on January 30th.
The trading feature will allow you to exchange certain rarities of cards with friends, mimicking the experience of in-person trading. To engage in trading, you'll need trade hourglasses and trade tokens, adding an authentic touch to the digital version of this iconic card collector.
The Space-Time Smackdown expansion is a thrilling addition, featuring fan-favorite Pokémon from the Sinnoh region. This expansion will introduce two new digital booster packs, spotlighting legendary Pokémon Dialga and Palkia. But it's not just about the legendaries; you'll also see beloved Pokémon like Lucario and the Sinnoh starters Turtwig, Chimchar, and Piplup. These cards will be available through the Wonder Pick feature, as well as traditional booster packs.
There's no doubt that this update will be a hit, especially with the addition of long-awaited Pokémon to the roster. However, there have been some concerns about how the trading feature will function. Here's hoping that the developers' promise of ongoing improvements will ensure a smooth experience.
