    The trading system is awful. By design, of course. If they made it too easy to acquire the cards you want via trading, you wouldn't buy as many packs.

    I am not sure when the restriction will be lifted, but you can only trade cards ★ rarity or below from the first set, Genetic Apex. They might enable later sets or higher rarities and promos as time goes on, but for now it's very limited.

    Have you tried trading another card from that set? I'm not up on the rules, maybe you should read into them. Perhaps it's a level restriction, or the card rarity is too high or you don't have enough trading points collected? Looks into those things first.

    Yeah, it looks like trading isn't available yet for this set. I have the same limitations.
