Can You Trade Across the World in Pokemon GO?

Ever wondered if you can trade with friends far away in Pokemon GO? Let’s find out!

If you’re a Pokemon GO enthusiast, you’ve probably thought about trading Pokemons with someone across the globe. Is it possible?

Short Answer: No, with Some Exceptions

Currently, Pokemon GO does not allow players to trade Pokemons with others around the world. The game requires traders to be physically close to each other, typically within a 100-meter distance.

However, there are special events called ‘Friend Fests’ or similar, where the trading distance temporarily increases, sometimes up to 40 kilometers. But, these are rare and the distances still don’t cover cross-world trading.

Why No Global Trading in Pokemon GO?

One of the core experiences of Pokemon GO is exploration. The game encourages players to go outside, walk around their neighborhoods, and meet new people. Allowing worldwide trading could potentially take away from this immersive experience.

Additionally, limiting trades encourages local community building and reduces the risk of cheating. It keeps the game fair and fun for everyone.
