How Pet Trading Works in Superhero Simulator
Trading is one of the core systems in Superhero Simulator by BrickSand Productions. Alongside hatching and upgrading pets, the Trading feature lets players exchange pets directly, which is the fastest way to obtain pets you have not hatched yourself and to manage duplicates filling your inventory.

The trading system pairs naturally with the game's weekly Saturday updates, which recently added a new world, 50+ new pets, and the Trading feature itself. Because new pets arrive regularly, pet values shift over time, so always re-check what your pets are worth before committing to an exchange.
| Trading Basics | Details |
|---|---|
| System | Player-to-player pet exchange |
| Added in | Major update: New World, 50+ Pets, Trading |
| Best use | Obtaining unhatched pets, clearing duplicates |
| Update cycle | Weekly Saturday updates |
| Key risk | Unbalanced offers and last-second changes |
Before trading, decide which pets belong to your main progression team. Everything else is trade inventory, which makes quick decisions much easier when an offer appears.
Step-by-Step: Making Your First Trade
Follow this sequence every time you trade. Rushing through confirmation is the most common way players lose value.
Organize Your Pets
Sort your collection into keepers and trade stock. Keep the strongest copy of each pet and set duplicates aside as trading material.
Open the Trading Feature
Launch Trading, select the player you want to trade with, and wait for the trade window to fully load before adding anything.
Add and Review Items
Both players place their pets into the offer window. Confirm the intended player is selected and the correct pets appear on both sides.
Evaluate the Offer
Compare rarity, source, usefulness, and demand. Pay extra attention to event-linked pets such as the Red Parrot before agreeing.
Confirm or Cancel
Re-check every item immediately before confirming. If anything was removed or replaced, cancel the trade.
Do not accept until both players have finished adding items. Check pet names and quantities one final time, since offers can change while the window is open.
Pet Value: What Makes a Pet Worth Trading For
Not every pet carries the same weight in a trade. Use these four factors together rather than judging by a single attribute.
Rarity
- Rarer pets command higher trade value
- Harder to hatch means harder to replace
- Check the pet's world of origin
Source
- Event and code pets like the Red Parrot are limited
- World-specific pets gate by progression
- Limited sources push value upward
Progression Value
- Pets from the newest accessible world outperform early pets
- Trading toward stronger pets speeds up world unlocks
- Match pets to your current farming needs
| Value Factor | High-Value Signal | Low-Value Signal |
|---|---|---|
| Rarity | Rare hatch from later worlds | Common early-game hatch |
| Source | Code or event exclusive | Freely hatchable anywhere |
| Demand | Fits most players' progression | Situational, niche use |
| Duplicates | You own none | You already own several |
Use a pet tier list mindset when trading: S-tier collection targets such as the Red Parrot deserve a strong return offer, while C-tier duplicates are fair game for trading toward pets that match your current world and progression stage.
Avoiding Scams and Bad Trades
Most bad trades come from pressure and haste, not clever tricks. Slow down at the exact moments scammers want you to speed up.
| Risk Scenario | Warning Sign | What To Do |
|---|---|---|
| Rushed event-pet trade | "Offer ends now" pressure | Take your time; limited does not mean accept anything |
| Last-second swap | Item removed or replaced before confirm | Re-check everything, then cancel |
| Overpayment for a duplicate | Offer far exceeds the pet's usefulness | Question why; verify rarity and source |
| Wrong player selected | Trade window shows unexpected names | Close and restart the trade |
If the final offer differs from what was agreed, cancel the trade. A fair trader will redo the exchange; a scammer was relying on you not looking twice.
Safe Trading Checklist:
- Confirm the correct player is selected
- Verify pet names and quantities on both sides
- Compare rarity, source, and demand before accepting
- Re-check the offer immediately before confirming
- Cancel if anything changed or feels unfair
Trading Strategy by Progression Stage
Your trading goals should evolve as you unlock worlds. What counts as a good trade early on becomes a wasted exchange later.
| Stage | Trading Goal | Recommended Approach |
|---|---|---|
| Starting World | Build first pet team | Trade low-value duplicates for early pets you missed |
| Newly Unlocked Worlds | Upgrade team power | Target pets from the newest accessible world |
| Advanced Worlds | Optimize efficiency | Trade surplus strong pets toward top-tier collection goals |
| Any Stage | Collection completion | Use duplicates to chase pets that are hard to farm directly |
Keep progression farming separate from collection trading. A pet that does not improve your farming loop can still be worth keeping if it completes a collection goal, but do not sacrifice your active team for it.
Check the Saturday update notes before big trades. A new world with 50+ new pets can reshape pet values overnight, and traders who read the update log first consistently get better exchanges.
Pet Trading FAQ
Q: How do I start Superhero Simulator pet trading?
Open the Trading feature in-game, select the player you want to trade with, and wait for the trade window to load. Both players add pets, review the offer, and confirm or cancel. Always verify pet names and quantities before accepting.
Q: Should I trade my Red Parrot?
The Red Parrot is an event-linked pet tied to code rewards, which gives it extra collection value. Only trade it after confirming the return offer matches both its practical value and its rarity as a limited pet. If in doubt, keep it.
Q: What should I do with duplicate pets?
Keep the strongest copy and trade the extras. Duplicates are your main trading currency for pursuing pets that better match your current world and progression stage, or for completing collection goals that are hard to finish through hatching alone.
Q: Can trading change my farming route?
Yes. Trading toward pets from the newest accessible world improves COINS, POWER ORBS, and world unlock efficiency, so a good trade can shorten the time needed to reach later progression milestones.
