Trading still set to come to Pokemon TCG Pocket in January

Trading is still set to come to Pokemon TCG Pocket in January 2025, according to leaks.

On top of all the upcoming events, January also has some exciting content in store. The developers of Pokemon TCG Pocket previously confirmed that trading is coming to the game before long. Alongside the January event schedule, the addition of trading to Pokemon TCG Pocket was listed as coming during the month. No exact date was given, but players won’t have to wait too long regardless.

Right now, there’s no way to trade cards between players, even added friends, in Pokemon TCG Pocket. This has made it a bit harder to collect all the cards trainers need for a collection or deck.

There are plenty of currencies in Pokemon TCG Pocket and one is a Special Shop Ticket. This can only be earned by trading or consuming rare cards. However, trading is most likely on the way so it’s best to save extra copies of cards right now to trade with friends come January.
