What is Pokemon TCG Pocket Trading?

Pokemon TCG Pocket is a mobile app where you collect digital Pokemon cards and, since 2025, can trade them with friends. The in-game trading system has some restrictions:

• You can only trade with players on your friends list.
• Cards must be of the same rarity (e.g., a 2-Diamond card for another 2-Diamond card).
• Certain cards (like promos, new releases, or above 1-Star rarity) are not tradable.
• Trading requires resources: Trade Stamina and, for rare cards, Trade Tokens or Shinedust.
• Both players must agree to the trade.

How Our Website Helps You Trade

Since you can only trade with friends in-game, pokemon-tcg.exchange acts as a matchmaking and management tool:

• Build your wishlist: Select the cards you want from the game catalog.
• List your offers: Mark the cards you’re willing to give away.
• Enter your Friend ID: Your unique in-game identifier, so others can add you as a friend and trade.
• Get matched: The site finds users whose offers and wishes match yours, showing their Friend IDs.
• Manage trades: See proposals, track negotiations, and update your wishlist or offers at any time.

This makes it easy to find trustworthy trading partners and organize trades that the in-game system alone does not facilitate.
