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, frequently occurring during the release of new expansion packs. The game's servers simply can't handle the surge in players.
However, if you encounter Error 102 on a non-release day, consider these troubleshooting steps:
- Restart the App: Completely close and reopen the Pokémon TCG Pocket application. A forced restart of your mobile device may also be beneficial.
- Check Your Internet Connection: Ensure a stable internet connection. If your Wi-Fi is unreliable, switch to a more stable connection, such as 5G mobile data.
If the error occurs during an expansion pack launch, server overload is the likely culprit. Patience is key; the issue usually resolves within a day or two, allowing normal gameplay to resume.
