Pokémon GO, the popular app for iOS and Android mobiles in which we capture Pokémon in the streets thanks to augmented reality, offers many possibilities to its players, including the possibility of trade Pokémon and certain objects with other players; Yes, there are a series of limitations that we must take into account, such as the need to have the Trainer ID of the player with whom you want to trade Pokémon or items. Next, how to trade Pokémon and items with other players in Pokémon GO.
How to trade Pokémon in Pokémon GO
The first requirement necessary to trade Pokémon with another player is that we must be friends and have a level 10 trainer; Don't miss any details about the Pokémon GO friendships in our specific tutorial. Take into account the following particularities to carry out trades in Pokémon GO:
- You must have the player you trade with on your Pokémon GO friends list.
- You must know the trainer ID of the player you are trading with in Pokémon GO to add them as a friend; Until he or she accepts, you will not be able to make exchanges with him or her.
- Both players must have trainer level 10 or higher.
- Each exchange consumes a different amount of Stardust.
- As we make exchanges with a specific player, the friendship level of both will increase; Thanks to this, the necessary amount of Stardust for each exchange will be less and less.
- With each Pokémon exchange we will receive an extra candy of the type of the Pokémon obtained.
Beyond these initial particularities that we must comply with and keep in mind for exchanges between players of Pokémon GO, There are others more specific requirements that we should not forget, such as:

- Trades for Legendary or Shiny Pokémon can only be completed through special trades.
What are special exchanges?
Special exchanges are those types of exchanges that allow us trade certain Pokémon of high level or rarity. To do this, the two coaches who intend to complete a special exchange must have a higher friendship level. On the other hand, we can only complete one special exchange per day, so we must be very clear about all these conditions before making an exchange of this type.
How to exchange items in Pokémon GO
Along with Pokémon exchanges, we also have item exchanges, known as special gift exchanges. These are packs of objects that we cannot open, we can only send as a gift to other players to be part of our friends list Pokémon GO.
