Pokémon TCG Live

There is nothing to complain about as far as the quality of this game or the format. It’s set up well and user friendly. The only thing I have a problem with is when you distribute damage counters on an I phone it’s REALLY easy to close the app accidentally, but that’s not pokemons fault. I keep seeing Many people complaining about things like coin flips and shuffles….it happens. It’s not the games fault you have bad luck. Yes it is possible to get heads 5 times in a row, yes it is possible to get no energy in your hand even if there’s 20 in your deck. Tell me you’ve never played a trading card game without telling me you’ve never played a trading card game. Yes they do patch the game when they have to fix something every couple weeks(it’s so you can keep playing😉) and when a new set is released they’ll do another one(that’s to add the new cards). Another complaint people commonly have is that a lot of people use the same decks, Ill explain how METAS work. I ask you this… If you see 3 knights fighting with normal full sized swords, are you going to rush in with a steak knife? No you won’t. You either grab a similar sword to what they’re using (this is META) or you attack from a distance. Pokemon can’t and won’t control what people do in thier game. This is and online version of a trading card game and plays well. That’s all

I’ve been playing for a little bit now, and I really enjoy the game. It plays and looks really well, maybe not the best on mobile but runs amazingly on my computer, and overall is a really good game that gets people to get into Pokemon cards and learn how to actually play the card game. However, there are some issues that people complaining about are right to be mad at. The coin flips in the game are really ridiculous. The RNG (at least for me) always felt like it was out to get me and anyone that used a Snorlax card. I would almost never win the starting coin flip, and any time people flipped two coins with Snorlax’s asleep effect I thought they might as well use cards to discard the card or something. Plus, with people reporting that they seem to have crazy streaks of coin flips being either the same side or pattern, its definitely not just nonsense. Also, I had an experience where I just couldn’t attack someone for a turn? Not like just can’t attack on the first turn or unable to attack a Mimikyu with an EX card, just randomly couldn’t use a card’s attack that turn but could the next with basically nothing that could stop me being present. The game has some issues but it’s definitely not too noticeable or problematic unless you’re some hardcore Pokemon card game enjoyer, but if you are that person then you probably already know about this game. It’s definitely worth a shot to play this game.

Been itching for a new iOS Pokémon card game ever since I got back into ptcgo during 2020 and this is a pretty decent card game on iOS, however shifting from ptcgo is somewhat difficult for a few reasons, one major one being the UI works against you sometimes. Wanna see the retreat cost when you don’t have energy on the card? Nope you gotta press the info button after pressing on it. Wanna tap to select a card to play for an ability? Nope you gotta swipe it into place. Lotta weird things that a basic game like this should already have down. Now for some things I actually like: absolutely love the master dual like start where you actually have stuff to use on things, you get a free battle pass right off the bat. Love that they’re bringing back the “micro transactions” of the old game where you really couldn’t get a decent collection or trade without getting real world Pokémon cards or if you where crafty: buying codes off of a website. Probably should mention trading, there is none, not yet at least but I don’t know if they are adding it at all but it really is going to make it difficult to get good cards without putting them up on a trading market. Overall, going to love playing Pokémon on my phone, and Pokémon, please get some good updates, also maybe make the characters not horrifying. Otherwise keep up the good work.
