How to Fix Error 102 in Pokemon TCG Pocket

IF YOU'RE A FAN OF THE *POKEMON TCG POCKET* DIGITAL CARD GAME, YOU'VE PROBABLY RUN INTO ERROR 102 AT SOME POINT. DESPITE BEING BASED ON ONE OF THE MOST ICONIC AND WELL-ESTABLISHED BRANDS IN GAMING HISTORY, THIS MOBILE TITLE ISN’T WITHOUT ITS FAIR SHARE OF HICCUPS. LET'S BREAK DOWN WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT ERROR 102 IN *POKEMON TCG POCKET*.

UNDERSTANDING ERROR 102 IN *POKEMON TCG POCKET*

ERROR 102 USUALLY SHOWS UP AS A STRING OF NUMBERS, LIKE 102-170-014, AND WILL BRING YOU BACK TO THE HOME SCREEN. THIS ERROR COMMONLY OCCURS WHEN THE GAME SERVERS ARE OVERLOADED DUE TO HIGH TRAFFIC—ESPECIALLY DURING MAJOR EXPANSION PACK LAUNCHES. HOWEVER, IF YOU'RE SEEING THIS ISSUE ON A REGULAR DAY WITHOUT ANY NEW RELEASES, THERE ARE A FEW THINGS YOU CAN TRY:
  • RESTART THE APP COMPLETELY BY QUITTING IT AND FORCING A HARD RESTART.
  • ENSURE YOUR INTERNET CONNECTION IS STABLE. IF YOU'RE USING WI-FI, CONSIDER SWITCHING TO A 5G NETWORK FOR A MORE RELIABLE CONNECTION.

ON DAYS WITH BIG EXPANSION PACK RELEASES, THE SERVERS MAY SIMPLY BE OVERBURDENED WITH PLAYERS. IN THIS CASE, PATIENCE IS KEY—THE ERROR MESSAGES USUALLY CLEAR UP WITHIN A DAY OR TWO, ALLOWING YOU TO RESUME PLAYING AS NORMAL.
