Pokémon GO
The new trade system, friend system and gift system is now live in Pokémon GO. At present, only Level 40 players are able to add friends. It's currently unclear for how long this will be and when lower levels will get access to it but it's a gradual process.
With this, the Alolan Forms are now available through special 7km eggs that you can get by receiving gifts from friends. We have updated the Pokémon Listing & all individual Pokémon pages with the new moves and stats for Alola Forms. We have also updated our Medals page with the new medals. We're currently researching this feature and our sections will update very soon
Edit @ 20:48: Trading Legendary Pokémon, Pokémon in the Pokédex and Shiny Pokémon require 20,000 Stardust for a trade from the outset. Legendary Pokémon you don't have in your Pokédex or Shiny Legendary Pokémon you don't have require 1,000,000 Stardust. Standard trades 100 Stardust. When traded, Legendary Pokémon can drop below the 10/10/10 IV spread that was a minimum on capture
Edit @ 21:00: Solrock and Lunatone have now switched regions to commemorate the Solstice
Edit @ 21:29: You are limited to sending 1 gift to each friend a day
Edit @ 22:56: It is now live for Level 38 and higher players
