The long-awaited trading feature for Pokémon TCG Pocket is finally arriving, though it comes with several limitations that may not sit well with all players. The Pokémon Company (TPCi) has confirmed that the feature will roll out later this month, coinciding with the launch of the game's next set of cards. The introduction of a trading cost might be a way for Pokémon TCG Pocket to prevent exploitative trading loops and ensure that players continue engaging with booster pack openings. The company encouraged players to test the feature once it goes live and provide feedback, suggesting that the system could be adjusted based on player responses. The inclusion of a trading system is a major step forward for Pokémon TCG Pocket, as it adds a social and strategic element that players have long requested. Whether this trading system will be embraced by the community or met with frustration remains to be seen, but it's clear that Pokémon TCG Pocket is evolving. The Pokémon Company has announced a second installment to its Legends series, initially dubbed as Pokémon Legends Z-A. They particularly mentioned that the game is set in Lumiose City — a central city in the Kalos region from Pokémon X/Y and releases in 2025 as a Nintendo Switch release.
