Calculate Stardust cost, IV rerolls, Lucky odds, and special-trade status in one place
The PogoTrades Pokemon GO trade calculator helps trainers plan trades before spending Stardust. Use it as a Stardust trade cost calculator, shiny trade cost calculator, lucky trade calculator, and trade IV reroll calculator when comparing possible trades.
Stardust trade cost
Estimate Stardust from friendship, registration, shiny/special status, and temporary discount settings.
Trade IV reroll
Understand how IV floors change after trading and why a traded Pokemon can become better, worse, or lucky.
Lucky trade chance
Compare lucky trade odds, guaranteed lucky settings, Pokemon age, and friendship effects before planning a trade.
Special trade planning
Check whether a trade may count as special before spending Stardust or using your daily special trade limit.
How Pokemon GO trade cost works
Pokemon GO trade cost changes depending on the Pokemon type, whether it is shiny or special, whether both trainers already have it registered, and the friendship level between the trainers. Good, Great, Ultra, and Best Friends can have very different Stardust costs for the same trade.
This calculator is especially useful before shiny trades, legendary trades, costume Pokemon trades, and event trades where Stardust cost or special trade status may change whether the trade is worth doing immediately.
After calculating a trade
Once you know the trade cost and IV risk, use the rest of PogoTrades to find real trading opportunities.
