Pokémon TCG Pocket Error 102 Fix

Pokémon TCG Pocket mobile game, based on the popular trading card game, occasionally encounters Error 102. This guide explains how to troubleshoot this common issue.

Troubleshooting Error 102 in Pokémon TCG Pocket

Error 102 in Pokémon TCG Pocket often appears with additional numbers (e.g., 102-170-014), forcing you back to the home screen. This usually indicates the game servers are overloaded, unable to handle the current player volume. This is particularly common during the release of new expansion packs.

If you encounter Error 102 on a non-release day:

• Restart the app: Force-quit the app and restart your mobile device. This can sometimes resolve the issue.
• Check your internet connection: Ensure a stable internet connection. If your Wi-Fi is unreliable, try switching to a 5G mobile data connection.

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