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 code like 102-170-014, abruptly returns players to the home screen. The most common cause is server overload, frequently occurring during the release of new expansion packs.

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

• Restart the app: Completely close and restart the Pokémon TCG Pocket application on your mobile device. A hard restart might resolve the issue.
• Check your internet connection: Ensure a stable internet connection. If your Wi-Fi is unreliable, try switching to a 5G mobile data connection.

However, if Error 102 appears on a new expansion pack release day, the servers are likely overwhelmed. In this case, patience is key. The error should resolve itself within the first day or so as server traffic subsides.
