Pokémon TCG Pocket to Drop Trade Feature and Space-Time Smackdown Expansion

Pokémon TCG Pocket is set to introduce some thrilling updates that fans have been eagerly awaiting. One of the most anticipated features, trading, is finally making its way to the game, along with the exciting Space-Time Smackdown expansion. This means you'll soon have the ability to swap cards with your friends, enhancing the social aspect of the game.

When Is Pokémon TCG Pocket Dropping Space-Time Smackdown and Trading?

Mark your calendars! Trading will become available in Pokémon TCG Pocket starting January 29th, 2025. Just a day later, on January 30th, the Space-Time Smackdown expansion will be released. This update not only brings new cards but also enhances your digital binder and display board with new covers featuring the iconic Pokémon Dialga, Palkia, and Darkrai.

The introduction of the trade feature has been a long-awaited addition to the game. To participate in trading, you'll need two new items: trade hourglasses and trade tokens. Note that the cards you can trade are limited to rarity levels 1-4 and ★1. Initially, you'll only be able to trade cards from the Genetic Apex and Mythical Island expansions. However, the developers have promised that more cards will become tradeable in future updates.

The Space-Time Smackdown expansion focuses on the Sinnoh region, bringing two new booster packs that feature the Legendary Pokémon Dialga and Palkia, along with fresh card illustrations. Additionally, you'll find cards featuring Lucario, the formidable steel-and-fighting type, and the three beloved starter Pokémon from Sinnoh: Turtwig, Chimchar, and Piplup.
