The Pokémon Trading Card Game Online will be removed from the App Store, Google Play, and Pokemon.com—and game servers will be shut down—on Monday, June 5, 2023, at 9 a.m. PDT. This comes prior to the full global launch of Pokémon Trading Card Game Live on Thursday, June 8, 2023. Pokémon TCG Live is currently available in beta to players around the world on iOS and Android devices, as well as PCs and Macs.

Until otherwise notified, players will be able to migrate their Pokémon TCG Online account information even after sunsetting occurs. If you have unopened Pokémon TCG Online content, please make sure to open it ahead of the game’s sunsetting. Likewise, if you have any deck lists you wish to save, you should export those ahead of the sunset date.

This has been a long time coming, I suppose. I’m not sold on Live being an improvement for TCGO yet, though.

TCG Live does a better job of providing players with decent decks, though it feels more like a tool for players already into the tcg to test out and retool decks. I’m not sure it does too good of a job of attracting new players to the game.

I think they should make a fun single player game to get more people interested, but that’s another topic.
