The Pokémon Trading Card Game (集換式卡牌遊戲) will be available in Taiwan and Hong Kong under the new unified translation (寶可夢) beginning in October 2019 with the All-Star Collection (眾星雲集組合編) expansion. Prior to this, English-language cards were available in Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Mainland China with most of the cards, boosters, and theme decks nearly identical to the ones that were released internationally. Although the Trading Card Game exists in all three areas, only Taiwan and Hong Kong host [[Play! Pokémon]] events.
