Pokémon Go has disabled the ability for all players to trade creatures with one another, following the discovery of a major bug last night.
An hour later, Pokémon Go developer Niantic announced it had pulled the game’s trading system worldwide while it “investigated an issue”.
Around 11pm UK time yesterday evening, a user on top Pokémon Go reddit The Silph Road reported having traded 100 Pokémon with a friend, with all of them turning into Lucky Pokémon.
(Lucky Pokémon have a higher base stats tier and are easier to power up, and are coveted among hardcore players.)
