-The Pokémon Trading Card Games (集換式卡片遊戲) are available in Taiwan, Hong Kong, and the Mainland China with most of the cards, boosters, and theme decks nearly identical to the ones that were released internationally. Cards released in Hong Kong and Taiwan are printed in Traditional Chinese characters with minor grammatical and naming differences, while the mainland versions are printed in Simplified characters. In addition to the Hong Kong releases, English versions of the cards have also been released in Hong Kong as well, and are often displayed on Hong Kong's official Pokémon website. Although the Trading Card Games exist in all three areas, only Hong Kong actually takes part in the worldwide tournaments. Only two sets have ever been officially printed in Chinese: {{tcg|Base Set}} and {{tcg|EX Legend Maker}}<ref>http://guangjoe.com/pokemon-cards-in-china/</ref>.
+The Pokémon Trading Card Game (集換式戰鬥遊戲卡) will be available in Taiwan and Hong Kong under the new unified translation (寶可夢) beginning in October 2019 with the All-Star Compilation 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.
+Prior to 2019, only two sets of the Trading Card Game (集換式卡片遊戲) were officially printed in Chinese. The {{TCG ID|Jungle|Pikachu|60}} card from the {{TCG|Jungle}} expansion was released in Chinese as part of the Pikachu World Collection. This was followed by {{tcg|Base Set}}, which was released by [[Wizards of the Coast]] in 2000 in Taiwan and Hong Kong using the [[Media:Pokémon logo Southeast Asia.png|red variant of the Pokémon logo]]. {{tcg|EX Legend Maker}} was later released by [[The Pokémon Company]] in 2006 in Taiwan to commemorate the {{OBP|PokéPark|theme park}} theme park.<ref>http://guangjoe.com/pokemon-cards-in-china/</ref>
