Pokémon TCG Pocket will let you trade cards starting early next year

Pokémon Trading Card Game Pocket has been a big hit since its worldwide launch last month, and the team behind it has shared a brief roadmap of a couple updates to come — including the ability to trade cards with other people.

“We are aiming to add a feature that allows certain cards to be traded starting in January, 2025,” according to an update from the team on the official Pokémon forums. “We are planning to gradually expand the selection of cards that are able to be traded.” It’s unclear what cards will initially be available to trade, and hopefully the expansion of the list doesn’t take too long.

The game will also get new booster packs by the end of this year. And there are other new features in the works in addition to trading, and the team says it will announce more details “as the dates for the addition of these features are finalized.”
