RELATED: Pokemon Evolution Lines That Should Get Baby Forms The Switch is the perfect platform for Pokemon TCG Live. Ideally Game Freak has another version of the app in development. Pokemon is a crucial part of the Nintendo brand, and the Switch is the ongoing hub for all things Nintendo, so it seems like the new trading card app and Nintendo's console would go hand in hand. However, it's extremely surprising to see no sign of a Switch version in the app's announcement. Pokemon Trading Card Game Live will be available on quite a few platforms, including PC, Mac, and mobile devices, giving fans plenty of options on how to play. Pokemon fans don't know just yet when they'll be able to pick up Pokemon Trading Card Game Live, but there's no doubt that it'll play an important role as a new way to experience the card game.
The Pokemon trading card game already followed MtG online with Pokemon TCG Online, but it seems Pokemon TCG Live will expand on that. Hearthstone continues to be a major part of Blizzard's brand, while Magic: The Gathering Arena offers an excellent way to play Wizards of the Coast's genre-defining trading card game online. Digital trading card games are more common than ever, and they don't show any signs of showing down. The newly announced Pokemon Trading Card Game Live is only the latest entry in an ongoing trend.
