The rules


Hello r/Pokemonexchange,

We are publishing changes to the rules today that aim to improve your experience across the subreddit. Two new rules have been added to normalize title formatting and stress moderator transparency, and many existing rules have been altered or clarified.

New rules


Rule 9 is new and intended to decrease title baiting while also improving the usability of the search feature. In short, it requires the use of the [H] [W] formatting for all trading posts (giveaways not included). Declaring sales, price drops, or other eye catching quotes is no longer allowed.

Rule 11 is a disclaimer from the moderation team that we reserve the right to remove any post or comment, even if they do not break rules 1-10 and notes that we cannot be held liable for scams that happen on this subreddit.

Changes to existing rules


All rules are now split into 5 categories: Foundation, Trading Restrictions, Posting Restrictions, Title Requirements, and Subreddit Conduct.

Rule 3, "Full details must be posted for valuable legitimate Pokémon," has been updated with examples and a clear definition of "offering".

Rule 10, "Do not be rude," includes a much more in-depth description and now prohibits price fixing.

Many other rules were edited for more clear and concise wording.
