Trade options

Petitions like that will never work

You never know. After all, a lot of people in rural areas stopped playing because there was very little to offer for them in the game. If this is taken into consideration, those players could start playing again.

Not sure how this will help Rurals?
Things you don’t have cost a lot more Dust for both parties in the Trade.
I don’t think that would be enough to get them back.

People in rural areas have limited options such as gift exchange, stocking up on items and eggs while in town, and completing research that gives items and Pokemon appearances. This means limited options in finding Pokemon or items. I have a friend in another state sending me gifts to help me out when I can’t travel. Having a long distance trade option would allow rurals to connect with others easier, and allow rurals be able to trade like those living closer together.

Absolutely. Especially with the newly introduced ‘‘lucky trades’’. However, botters could use it too and Niantic doesn’t want that (I assume)

Long distance battles would be good too. The only trainers people in rural areas can battle are the in game leaders. Back to the topic at hand. Like how the gift exchange works, why wouldn’t trade be an option in the same sense?

And I agree
But an online petition like this wont change a thing

Then why don’t we send a suggestion to the company about it?

The more of us that want this added to the game the more likely it will be added in an update.

I hate to break it to you, but thats an automatic response
Niantic trully isnt a company that would listen to anybody, they have 2-year old bugs, dont do literally anything about cheaters, ignore tons of feedback (unless its an utter fail like 2017 Go fest)
And such a company wont listen to a petition anyway
Its a shame that out of all companies, it was Nia who got the rights for the game

A post was merged into an existing topic: Share Pokémon GO Codes & Add Friends (Official Megathread)

Yup

It’s been a while since this was posted so a recap. We have worldwide battles, we’ve received Pokemon go battle league since the original post, but still we are unable to trade with friends without practically sitting next to them. I’d rather have trades than battles personally but why hasn’t the trade feature been updated? Probably because there would be no way to communicate in game what Pokemon you would want in exchange.

That’s why you’d use other apps

I usually do.

There’s times when I’ll be sitting a room away from another player and while I’m sitting still my in game character will run a km away from where I’m sitting. As a result I can’t connect to the other person’s trainer. Gets kinda frustrating.
