Pokémon Trading Card Game Coming to the iPad

The Pokémon Trading Card Game is coming to iPad, according to Josh Wittenkeller on Twitter. The image shows what looks like a version of The Pokémon Trading Card Game being played on a digital table on a white iPad. On the back of the cards is the familiar Pokéball design. The iPad game appears to be a version of The Pokémon Trading Card Game Online that is currently playable on Windows PC and Mac.

A representative from The Pokémon Company confirmed this game is real, but could not provide a timeline or a release date. The Pokémon World Championship takes place this weekend at the Walter E. Washington Convention Centre in Washington, D.C, and features events for The Pokémon Trading Card Game and the iPad game is already being shown to some attendees.

The Pokémon Company has already created a number of apps for iOS devices, but this will be the first full game to be released on Apple’s mobile devices.

Thank you Polygon for providing us with this information.
