Pokemon has officially announced the end of Pokémon TCG Online on June 5, 2023, at 9:00 a.m. PDT. It will be removed from the App Store, Google Play, and Pokemon.com and game servers will be shut down.

Then on June 8, 2023, at 10 a.m. PDT the Pokémon TCG Live game will officially launch (so no more Beta excuses in a month from now).

I can't tell if this is good or bad news I guess we will see in about a month from now. Lets hope for the best!

    The migration can be done until the last day of TCG Online (June 5th) right?

    @Lygars they said that migration can actually be done after live releases. Not sure what that means tho

    Really hoping some of the more gamebreaking problems are mitigated by "release" but I feel like it's not likely to change much in under 6 weeks 🫠

    Maybe they are saving a big surprise update for the official release day... yup I know it's silly to believe that...

    Probably we will just get some sort of special gift deck box with sleeves again, few fixes and some more new bugs hehe

    I don't know, the dev team still hasn't fixed the issues regarding the game crashing on iOS devices. I can haven't played the game properly on my iPhone 8 since December and the crashes have only gotten progressively worse since.

    Agreed. They really need to get on the iPad/iOS issues, it’s pretty much unplayable as is

    That might have to do more with the hardware(specifically ram) than the platform. The platform has a lot of problems, but I haven’t had problems with crashing on my iPad(8th gen) or IPhone(iPhone 13 ProMax). I know I had problems with my iPhone 7 and iPad Air(don’t recall if it was 1st or 2nd Gen) running newer programs and I believe the hardware between the 7 and 8 are pretty comparable.

    My iPad Pro 11” with latest iOS 16.4.1 crashes regularly with this app. All it requires is leaving the app (say to check mail) and returning to it. At that point it crashes

    I had a feeling that was the case. I just did some research and both models have 2 GBs of RAM, I guess that means it was more down to luck that Live could run on that ~5 year-old iPhone. I ended up upgrading from said phone yesterday to an iPhone 14 Pro Max and that fixed the crashing, the phone still overheats like crazy when running the app.

    I’ve had similar issues with my iPad Pro but I tend to chalk that up due to how iPad/iPhone apps access the internet when they’re not actively being used. Those same issues would also occur with Online and GO if I stray away from those apps for too long but they would be written down as lost connections.
