Pokémon TCG Pocket to add trading, new packs, and more

Pokémon TCG Pocket developers issued an update on X on Nov. 13, where they shared a timeline on when players can expect to be able to trade cards, as well as the release of new packs. According to the post, there is "new content planning to be released in a major future update."

The post goes on to say that new booster packs are coming before 2025, and trading for "certain cards" will be coming in January of 2025. From there, the kinds of cards that can be traded will slowly be expanded, according to developers.

Below is a link to the update.

Otherwise, players can expect more in-game events like the Lapras EX one where they will be able to earn cards and other rewards through battles and certain challenges.

This update comes after the game has grown massively in popularity, despite only having three different booster packs to choose from and certain features yet to be added. It shows the demand for more Pokémon among the larger player base, which continues to be an IP with incredible value.

Developers have stated that more details on this, the new packs to be added, and trading will be coming soon, so be sure and stay tuned for more updates from esports.gg. We will continue to provide all of the latest Pokémon TCG Pocket news, updates, and guides!
