How to Fix Error 102 in Pokemon TCG Pocket

Troubleshooting Error 102 in Pokémon TCG Pocket

Pokémon TCG Pocket, the popular mobile card game, occasionally encounters Error 102. This error, often accompanied by a longer code (e.g., 102-170-014), unexpectedly returns players to the home screen. The most common cause is server overload, typically occurring during the release of new expansion packs when many players access the game simultaneously.

However, if you encounter Error 102 on a non-release day, consider these troubleshooting steps:

• Restart the app: Completely close the Pokémon TCG Pocket app and force a restart on your mobile device. This often resolves temporary glitches.
• Check your internet connection: Ensure a stable internet connection. If your Wi-Fi is unreliable, switch to a more stable 5G connection.

If Error 102 appears on an expansion pack launch day, server congestion is the likely culprit. Patience is key; the issue usually resolves within the first day.
