I find the app better played on this device. The desktop version has a few bugs and sometimes I can’t navigate properly whereas I haven’t experienced any here. Looks to be better now compared to last year’s reviews.
Fix Disconnection Concedes
MAKEOUTPARADlSE
Its very clear when someone rage quits and disconnects. This then leaves you with a frozen game waiting out a timer that doesn’t even result with a win via opponent conceding (which it should give you after 15 seconds of no action). Especially with ranked content its nothing more than completely frustrating. Playing well and winning a match should not punish you for your opponents ability to abuse a flawed mechanic that allows someone to disconnect in the event of looming defeat. Don’t get me wrong the app suffices as a mobile pokemon tcg platform with the gameplay one would expect from a simple tcg game. But when your opponent can abuse an apps flaws to both waste your time and steal from you the rewards you should yield from winning performance, something needs to change. Please fix this immediately and I will be happy to amend my review.
Fun but crashes
Wakeup2014
Our family all like playing Pokemon TCG. It is very fun because you can play against real people and we like sending emojis during a match. I like creating decks and testing them against AI/people. There is a few problems. Sometimes when you log in to play it logs you out and it sometimes freezes and logs me out in the middle of a game.Overall, it is fun but has a few bugs to work out.
Lost a star for each issue
OriginalDelux
This is long overdue, thought I would add this as it’s updating don’t get me wrong I love this game, only issues I have is you can’t use your custom decks in ranked, this also takes away some excitement from the opening of packs as you’ll tend to play less custom decks as you want to progress the ranked ladder for prizes, also that you cannot store your packs to be opened later as that is some of the excitement you get is from opening them, other than that a great game love it a lot.
