A warning not to cheat recently went out to all players
The creators of Pokémon TCG Pocket have issued a warning to all players not to tamper with game data or participate in real money trades, or risk getting their accounts banned. The crackdown comes right before card trading and a new Space-Time Smackdown set are added to the mobile hit. “We are aware that some players have engaged in data tampering, real money trading, and other behaviors that violate the Terms of Use,” read an in-game announcement that went out to all players on Monday.
That’s possibly one reason why the development team is restricting Pokémon TCG Pocket’s trading feature to one-star cards and below. The rarest cards, like specific gold variants with only a .053 percent chance of dropping, will remain locked to players accounts. They would still be able to sell entire accounts to one another, but that would sort of defeat the whole purpose of playing the game and collecting cards in the first place.
