For fans eagerly awaiting the trading feature in Pokémon TCG Pocket, the initial reception has been a mix of excitement and concern. While the feature was warmly welcomed, some players have pointed out flaws in the system, particularly the stringent restrictions on who you can trade with and what cards are eligible for trading.
In response to the community's feedback, the developers of Pokémon TCG Pocket have acknowledged the issues. They've released a statement explaining that the trading mechanics were designed to safeguard against bots and other prohibited activities. However, while this is reassuring, it doesn't mean immediate changes are on the horizon. The only confirmed adjustment so far involves new methods for acquiring trading currency, which will be available through various events, including the upcoming ex Drop Event.
While the response might not fully address all concerns, it's a step in the right direction. Trading cards are a fundamental aspect of the physical TCG, and translating this to a digital platform presents unique challenges. Many fans were hoping for a more polished system from the start, but it's encouraging to see that the developers are listening to the community.
With the new ex Drop Event featuring Cresselia now underway, players can participate with a bit more confidence, knowing that the developers are actively working on improving the game.
