Despite years of wanting better from Niantic, players weren\u2019t thrilled to learn the game was being sold to a new parent company, Scopley. However, so far, many players\u2019 biggest concerns have yet to come to fruition. In fact, that news feels like a distant memory thanks to a few new, exciting changes like more wild spawns for rural players and the ability to join <a href=\"https:\/\/comicbook.com\/gaming\/news\/pokemon-go-major-changes-to-remote-raids-shadow-max-battles\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Shadow Raids and Max battles<\/a> using Remote Raid passes. Now, it looks like the next big win might be the addition of a remote trading option for Pokemon Go players. <\/p>\n<p>Previous leaks from Pokemon Go datamines have been a mixed bag. While some features in the code have later arrived in the game, others <a href=\"https:\/\/comicbook.com\/gaming\/news\/pokemon-go-leak-in-game-ad-support\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">neve<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/comicbook.com\/gaming\/news\/pokemon-go-leak-in-game-ad-support\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">r<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/comicbook.com\/gaming\/news\/pokemon-go-leak-in-game-ad-support\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> see the light of day<\/a>. So, just because data miners find something doesn\u2019t necessarily mean we\u2019re going to see it in Pokemon Go. But in this case, most fans sure hope that we will. The latest info comes from a set of datamines performed following the version 361.0 update to Pokemon Go, shared to the r\/TheSilphRoad subreddit by user @GoodMornEveGoodNight. <\/p>\n<p>In a follow up comment, the same user shares a string of possible commands that all seem to relate to a possible remote trade feature. The text reads: <\/p>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>ProposeRemoteTrade<\/li>\n<li>CancelRemoteTrade<\/li>\n<li>MarkRemoteTradable<\/li>\n<li>GetRemoteTradeableFromOtherPlayer<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>From the sounds of it, this code definitely looks to be a test for some kind of remote trading feature. And with many players frustrated by the in-person trade requirement, which isn\u2019t accessible for many Pokemon Go fans, this would be a massive win if it proves to be true. <\/p>\n<p>Pokemon Go Players Welcome Possibility of Remote Trades<\/p>\n<p>For years, many players complained about the way Niantic scaled back pandemic-era features that made Pokemon Go more accessible. In particular, players were frustrated by increasing limits on Remote Raids \u2013 something that has, in recent months, finally been changing. With Remote Raids getting better, and adjustments to the number of Pokemon that spawn in rural areas even without a PokeStop around, many players are impressed. And if Pokemon Go also finally adds remote trades? Many players would be thrilled with the change.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2048\" height=\"1152\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Pokemon-Go-Mega-Kangaskhan-Raid-Day.jpg\" alt=\"Pokemon Go Mega Kangaskhan Raid Day\" class=\"wp-image-1326670\"  \/>Remote Raids would let trainers cash in on long distance lucky friendships<\/p>\n<p>RELATED: <a href=\"https:\/\/comicbook.com\/gaming\/news\/features-pokemon-go-needs-to-add\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">7 Features Pokemon Go Needs to Add, According to Fans<\/a><\/p>\n<p>As <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reddit.com\/r\/TheSilphRoad\/comments\/1kj20wp\/comment\/mrjjoj5\/?utm_source=share&amp;utm_medium=web3x&amp;utm_name=web3xcss&amp;utm_term=1&amp;utm_content=share_button\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">one response<\/a> to the leak puts it, \u201cThey\u2019re really making the game so much more accessible and it\u2019s actually great.\u201d Trades have long been an issue for players without a large local base of other Pokemon Go players, or for those who aren\u2019t able to get out of the house as easily. Many events and research paths require a trade, and if you don\u2019t have someone in person to meet up with, you\u2019re pretty much locked out of progress in that area.<\/p>\n<p> As many players in rural areas don\u2019t have access to a large local group, they rely on online communities such as Campfire to share their Pokemon Go love. For those players, being able to set up remote trades with their online community would be a genuine gamechanger. <\/p>\n<p>Another player puts it even more simply with \u201cYES YES YES YES YES\u201d while another points out that Pokemon Go is \u201cabsolutely cooking lately.\u201d Though this datamined information is in no way a guarantee that Remote Trades will actually show up in Pokemon Go, fan responses make it clear that such a change would be more than welcome. Hopefully, we\u2019ll learn more about this potential feature soon, if Pokemon Go decides to move forward with adding remote trades to the game. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"It\u2019s been a mixed year for Pokemon Go fans.
