The launch of Pokémon Trading Card Game Pocket was met with excitement, but the introduction of trading quickly became a point of contention among players. Initially, the trading system was criticized for its cumbersome Trading Tokens and restrictive trading policies. However, a recent update aims to address these issues and improve the overall trading experience.
The first significant change is the complete removal of Trading Tokens. Players will no longer need to exchange cards to acquire the currency needed for trading. Instead, the new system introduces Shinedust, which is earned whenever you open a booster pack and receive a card that's already registered in your Card Dex. Shinedust will be used to trade cards of three-diamond, four-diamond, and one-star rarity, making the process more straightforward and rewarding.
For those who have accumulated Trading Tokens, there's good news: these can be converted into Shinedust. This conversion is particularly beneficial since Shinedust is also used to obtain flair, and additional updates are planned to enhance its functionality. Moreover, an upcoming update will introduce a feature allowing players to share cards they're interested in trading directly through the in-game system.
As I previously mentioned, the initial implementation of trading in Pokémon TCG Pocket seemed somewhat half-hearted. The digital nature of the game necessitates more restrictions than physical trading to prevent abuse, which can be frustrating for players. While these updates are a step in the right direction, they won't be implemented until autumn, leaving players waiting through the spring and summer.
Although the team behind Pokémon TCG Pocket is addressing these concerns, the pace of these changes has left some players wishing for quicker solutions. If you're hesitant to dive back into Pokémon TCG Pocket until these improvements are in place, consider exploring some of the exciting new mobile games featured in our latest top five list for this week.
