Pokémon TCG Live has been online for more than 10 months, and the developers have yet to perfect the art of releasing a new expansion without breaking several features or gameplay mechanics along the way. The recent Temporal Forces patch, unfortunately, continued that trend.
Released on March 19 ahead of the March 22 release of the Pokémon TCG: Temporal Forces launch, the PTCGL team was aiming to drop a new expansion, battle pass, and other content to the game while also fixing a handful of bugs that were heavily impacting player experience. This included certain avatar customization items causing matchmaking errors and card bugs like Ditto V’s Transformation Ability not working or Mr. Mime’s Mimic Barrier Ability blocking damage it shouldn’t.
