Pokemon Trading Card Game (TCG) Live has officially come out of its shell after spending a reasonable amount of time in beta. The Pokemon Company Inc officially launches the Pokemon TCG Live app available around the world on iOS, Android, macOS, and Windows.

Pokemon TCG Live is Available Globally

With Pokemon TCG Live starting to be available globally, we have officially seen the sunset of Pokemon TCG Online. This means migrating your cards and files to the newest and latest app is now a must. Alongside the release of Pokemon TCG Live, we are going to see the digital version of the newest expansion on Pokemon TCG Live, Scarlet & Violet Paldea Evolved which features the following:

  • 15 Pokemon ex and 3 Tera Pokemon ex
  • 35 illustration rare Pokemon
  • 18 ultra rare Pokemon ex and 8 ultra rare Supporter Cards
  • 15 special illustration rare Pokemon and Support Cards
  • 9 hyper rare gold etched cards, which can include Pokemon ex, Trainer, and Energy Card

For Trainers that are finally going to be able to log in and play the latest game of Pokemon TCG, you will receive rewards for the new Scarlet & Violet Paldea Evolved Battle Pass with a Chien-Pao ex pack. You will also be able to unlock a Forrestress ex Premium Pass deck by redeeming Crystals that you can earn by completing daily quests in the game.

If you want to make sure that you get those Ws in line for the daily quests, cards that are part of the current meta still include Gardevoir ex and Miraidon ex so make sure that you utilize these decks to get those rewards in.

In case you are still wondering why The Pokemon Company Inc opted to create a new app for their Trading Card Game, they have issued their official statement on their website:

“We’re always working to innovate the Pokemon TCG and provide the best possible experience for fans who want more ways to play outside of the tabletop version of the game. As Pokemon TCG Online launched over 10 years ago, Pokemon TCG Live not only provides an opportunity to update the game and underlying technology, but also to engage more fans by offering an easily accessible online game on smartphones, tablets, PCs, and macOS devices. Pokemon TCG Live also comes with a suite of improvements, including a new card-logic engine that provides more player feedback around gameplay events, as well as a Ranked Ladder, Battle Pass, duplicate card protection with Credits, 3D avatars, updated visual effects, and more fluid gameplay.”
