Understanding Trade Tokens in Pokémon TCG Pocket
Trade Tokens are one of the newest items in Pokémon TCG Pocket, essential for trading in the game.
As new events for Pokémon TCG Pocket approach, it's time to start filling out your collection. The upcoming Space-Time Smackdown cards will play a significant role in trading, enabling players to use their friends' extras to complete their sets, provided they have Trade Tokens.
How To Get Trade Tokens
Currently, Trade Tokens can only be acquired in one way: by trading in extra cards. Players cannot exchange cards with a Tier 1 or 2 rarity for Trade Tokens. The amount of Trade Tokens received varies depending on the rarity, as listed below:
- Tier 3: 25 Trade Tokens
- Tier 4: 125 Trade Tokens
- 1-Star: 100 Trade Tokens
- 2-Star: 300 Trade Tokens
- 3-Star: 300 Trade Tokens
- Crown: 1500 Trade Tokens
Once you have secured your Trade Tokens, you can use them to trade for the same rarity cards.
How To Use Trade Tokens For Trading
When trading in Pokémon TCG Pocket, different rarity levels require varying amounts of Trade Tokens:
- Tier 3: 120 Tokens
- Tier 4: 500 Tokens
- 1-Star: 400 Tokens
To trade high-tier cards, you must spend Trade Tokens. However, trading can only occur with friends on the app, and players may have to wait before trading cards from the latest set. Currently, cards of rarity higher than 1-Star are not eligible for trades, but this function is expected to be introduced in the future.
Utilizing Trade Tokens effectively will allow players to acquire sought-after ex cards.
