For fans of Pokémon TCG Pocket, the highly anticipated trading feature has been a mixed bag. While initially welcomed, some flaws in the system, particularly its restrictive nature on who you can trade with and what cards are tradable, have become evident once players got their hands on it.

If you've been vocal about your concerns over the past few days, you'll be pleased to know that the developers behind TCG Pocket have taken notice. They've issued a statement explaining that the trading mechanics were designed to safeguard against bots and other "prohibited actions".

However, don't expect immediate changes. The statement is more of a reassurance than a promise of quick fixes. The only concrete alteration on the horizon involves new methods to acquire trading currency, a vital component of the trading system. Going forward, these currencies will be obtainable through various means, including event distributions.

Stating your caseWhile any response is better than none, many of you might feel disappointed that more decisive action hasn't been taken to address the community's concerns about trading. Given the importance of trading in the physical TCG, and the challenges of replicating this experience digitally, it's understandable that players were hoping for a more polished system from the start.

Nevertheless, it's encouraging to see that the developers are listening. With the new ex Drop Event featuring Cresselia now underway, you can dive into this latest event with a bit more confidence, knowing that improvements are being considered.
