Why isn't Pokemon Card Game available for Android?

Actually, there's a bit of a mix-up here! While the traditional Pokemon Trading Card Game (TCG) itself isn't directly available as an official Android app, there's something pretty close - Pokemon TCG Online (PTCGO). It's a digital version of the game that lets you play against others, build decks, and collect cards digitally. However, it's worth noting that PTCGO has been primarily designed for tablets and desktops, which might be why it doesn't pop up first when you're searching on an Android phone. But hey, who knows what the future holds? Maybe they'll optimize it more for all types of Android devices soon!

I gotta say, if you're looking for the TCG on Android, you're barking up the wrong tree. The real TCG vibe comes from handling physical cards, anyway. The weight of the cards, the art, the thrill of a good draw - you just can't get that on a screen. Plus, collecting physical cards has its charm, what with the rarity and the possibility of snagging a valuable card. Virtual decks? Pssh, not for me.

You're kinda asking the wrong question. It's not about why it isn't on Android; it's more like when will it be fully optimized for Android smartphones. Patience is key. The Pokemon Company knows there's a huge Android user base itching to get in on the action. I'm betting they're working on something big for us. Stay tuned!
