Pokémon TCG Pocket: card exchanges now possible

Pokémon TCG Pocket, the Pokémon card-collecting mobile game, continues to win over fans with its collection and battle features. And now, on January 29, 2025, the mobile game offers THE feature many have been waiting for: card swapping. This new feature is accompanied by two new Boosters, from the Pokémon Pearl and Pokémon Diamond versions. Here's the lowdown!

A long time coming... Pokémon TCG Pocket, a mobile game released a few months ago, invites you to open card boosters, create decks and take part in online battles. However, a key element of the original card game was sorely missing from this digital adaptation: the ability totrade cards. This is now a reality, as this feature has been available since January 29, 2025.

Exchanges are only available between friends, the cards exchanged must have the same level of rarity, and a very small number of cards can be exchanged at the start (more will be exchanged over the weeks). Exchanges also consume "exchange vitality" points, which recharge automatically.

New boosters have also been introduced in the proposed update, to complement the existing series. These packs allow you to acquire Pokémon from the Diamond and Pearl versions. With these new features, Creatures Inc. seems intent on meeting players' expectations by gradually enriching the experience. A moderate evolution, but one that could enable Pokémon TCG Pocket to increase community loyalty by overcoming its current shortcomings. Get ready with your decks and Booster Shields!
