How Pokemon TCG Pocket Trading Works

Pokemon TCG Pocket brings the Pokemon Trading Card Game to mobile with a unique digital collection and trading system. Trading uses a stamina-based system with rarity matching requirements that make finding the right trade partner essential.

The trading system has several unique mechanics:

  • ~7 trades per day (stamina-based) — Trading costs stamina that regenerates over time, limiting you to approximately 7 trades per day. SwapDeck helps you spend stamina on the best possible trades.
  • Rarity matching required — You can only trade cards of the same rarity tier. You cannot trade a common for a rare. SwapDeck finds partners with matching rarity levels.
  • Shinedust costs — Some trades require spending Shinedust, a resource earned by opening packs. Higher rarity trades cost more Shinedust. SwapDeck calculates optimal spending.
  • Friend code system — You need to be friends to trade, using friend codes. SwapDeck provides a hub to share and discover codes from active traders.
  • Expansion-based collections — Cards are organized by expansion sets. New expansions add hundreds of cards regularly.
