For fans eagerly awaiting the trading feature in Pokémon TCG Pocket, the initial reception has been a mix of excitement and frustration. While the feature was warmly welcomed, players have quickly identified some limitations and restrictions on who you can trade with and what cards are eligible for trading, causing some dissatisfaction.
In response to the community's feedback over the past few days, the developers of Pokémon TCG Pocket have acknowledged the concerns. They've stated that the trading mechanics were designed to safeguard against bots and other unauthorized actions. However, while this explanation provides context, it doesn't promise immediate changes to the system. The only confirmed adjustment so far is the introduction of new methods to obtain trading currency, which will be available through various events, including the upcoming distribution events.
While it's reassuring to see some response from the developers, many fans are likely disappointed that more concrete steps haven't been taken to address the trading issues. Trading cards are a fundamental aspect of the physical TCG, and the challenges of replicating this digitally have led to expectations for a smoother rollout of the feature in Pokémon TCG Pocket.
Nevertheless, the acknowledgment of player feedback is a positive sign. With the new ex Drop Event featuring Cresselia now underway, players can participate with a bit more confidence, knowing that the developers are at least listening to their concerns.
