Interchange without active communication is useless

Okay, they added interchange, good. How do i ask for the card i need? Because this method only works with irl pepole sat next to each other. Why making the process so incredibly difficult without words? Why not adding a chat window, or a window to put the cards I NEED.

Lets say: I do need a normal Venusaur, good.

What do i do?

I get into a "friend" and now what? I have to offer whatever i have and still not asked for my card

If "friend" accepts my interchange but doesn't sends my card, what?

The social side of this game is awful, who tf ever went to look other ppl albums?

This is bullshit
