Add to Watchlist

Share Feature Guide

Sharing Cards lets players send Diamond-rarity cards to friends. Read on to learn about this feature and the limits of sharing cards in Pokemon TCG Pocket.

What is the Share Feature?

Share Cards to Friends

Share Feature Rules
Checkmark Icon You may only Share cards with friends.

Checkmark Icon You may only Share cards of 1◇ ~ 4◇ rarity.

Checkmark Icon Each player can only receive one card per day.

The Share feature allows players to send 1◇ ~ 4◇ rarity cards to friends. This allows people to receive cards that they may want without having to Trade something of equal value.

You may use the Share feature multiple times per day, but each player can only receive one card from Shares per day. This means that friends that have already received a card will be unavailable for Sharing until the next reset.

Card Sharing Etiquette

Share Cards That Will Help Set Completion

Share Cards That Will Help Set Completion
When selecting a card to share, the game will show you the cards your friend has wishlisted or does not have yet. It is best to share these cards in order to help them complete their Card Dex.

Unfriend Trolls

You may experience people sharing cards that you already have repeatedly. This will lock you out of receiving a card that you actually want.

It is best to remove players that do this from your Friend List. This will allow you to receive more beneficial daily shares from your other friends.

Give Thanks

Giving Thanks to the friend that shared a card will give them a Shop Ticket. It is recommended that you do this every time you receive a card in order to give something in return.
