How to Fix Error 102 in Pokemon TCG Pocket

Encountering Error 102 in Pokémon TCG Pocket? This mobile card game, while popular, isn't immune to server issues. This guide explains how to troubleshoot this common problem.

Troubleshooting Error 102 in Pokémon TCG Pocket

Error 102 in Pokémon TCG Pocket often appears with additional numbers (e.g., 102-170-014), abruptly returning you to the home screen. This usually indicates overloaded game servers, a common occurrence during major expansion pack launches.

However, if you encounter this error outside of a new release, try these steps:

• Restart the app: Completely close and restart the Pokémon TCG Pocket application on your mobile device. A forced restart might resolve the issue.
• Check your internet connection: Ensure a stable internet connection. If your Wi-Fi is unreliable, switch to a 5G mobile data connection for better stability.

If the error persists on a new expansion/pack release day, server overload is the likely culprit. Patience is key; the issue usually resolves within the first day.
