For enthusiasts of Pokémon TCG Pocket, the much-anticipated trading feature has generally been met with enthusiasm. However, once players got their hands on it, some flaws in the system, including stringent restrictions on trading partners and card eligibility, have become apparent.
The good news is, if you've been vocal about your concerns over the past few days, the developers seem to have taken note. They've issued a statement explaining that the trading mechanics were designed to safeguard against bots and other "prohibited actions."
While immediate comprehensive changes aren't on the horizon, there's a silver lining. The team plans to introduce new methods for acquiring trading currency, a vital component of the mechanic, through various means, including event distributions.
Stating Your Case Although these updates may not fully address all the issues, it's better than no action at all. Many of you might feel let down by the lack of more decisive steps to tackle the trading system's shortcomings. Considering the importance of trading in the physical TCG and the challenges of translating it to a digital format, most of us were hoping for a more polished implementation right from the start.
Nevertheless, it's encouraging to see the developers are listening. With the new ex Drop Event featuring Cresselia now underway, you can feel more confident about participating in this latest event.
