    Official annouced by TCG Pocket:

    "we plan to add new booster packs by the end of the year. In addition, we are aiming to add a feature that allows certain cards to be traded starting in January, 2025. We are planning to gradually expand the selection of cards that are able to be traded."

    Well guess trade feature has a deadline and only certain cards will be allowed to trade... we will see in about a couple of months.

    The "certain cards" line is why I made this thread.

    It suggests that the restriction will be on the types of cards you can trade, rather than frequency of trading.

    But at the moment all cards are acquired the same way. The only difference at the moment is cards opened from the extra packs on the premium pass.

    My new best guess it's they will only allow previous set cards trade.

    Because the new set comes in January too, so if you can't trade cards from the new set the trading will have less impact over paying players... since most players will be missing few cards of the previous set and paying players will be focus on the new set.

    And maybe this part:

    "gradually expand the selection of cards that are able to be traded"

    Means every new set that comes out will make cards from the previously untradeable set be tradeable.

    I think this would actually be a great way to minimize exploits and it would still be great to help players finnish each expansion collection.

    this game has no balance. For example I open 120 mewtwo packs my card list=

    0 venusaur ex

    4 mewtwo ex

    4 articuno ex

    4 gengar ex

    5 marrowak ex

    Now I need venusaur ex and how can I get it? on the other hand I open too much mewtwo pack and I wait trade system but january is too long.

    other issue is mission and secret missions. can we complate this mission after new set come? for example I want "bird trio emblem" I have one illisturate articuno and I want trade other birds with my two stars. I guess this impossible with pokemon official anouncement

    -trade system garbage

    -event system is garbage. I wait gym badges. We fight each gym leader and earn a badge. however this system so disapointed

    -hourglass is not earn. Only pokemon company gives you a little bit. Are we BEGGERS?

    -wonder pick is garbage. %20 chance and I saw only two times two cards.

    Was all that whining really needed? Just because you don't have a card that you want?

    And you know with 500 pack points you can exchange it for an ex Pokemon?

    I really hope that they will allow mystery trades (similar to mainline console games) where you can select a card and have a random one back in return. Of course it would only have to allow low rarity cards, but it would be a good way to fill up your missing cards, instead of waiting forever to pull them.

    I really wish they could make the trading feature more broad and actually useful that just something that is highly restrictive and pretty much useless.
