One of the most anticipated features, trading, is finally making its way into the game, along with the exciting Space-Time Smackdown expansion. Soon, you'll have the opportunity to swap cards with your friends directly within Pokémon TCG Pocket.

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

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

The introduction of trading has been a long-awaited feature, and to participate, you'll need two new items: trade hourglasses and trade tokens.

The Space-Time Smackdown expansion dives into the Sinnoh region, bringing two new booster packs that spotlight the Legendary Pokémon Dialga and Palkia, along with fresh card illustrations. You'll also encounter the powerful steel-and-fighting type, Lucario, and the beloved Sinnoh starters: Turtwig, Chimchar, and Piplup.
