The iPad version of Pokemon Trading Card Game Online that was announced last month is now available for free on the App Store in Canada, suggesting a United States launch may not be far behind.

TCG Online is itself not a brand-new game, having already been available on PC. This does, however, mark its debut on mobile platforms, which is not insignificant given the shift in handheld gaming to phones and tablets. Keep in mind, though, that The Pokemon Company is not wholly owned by Nintendo, despite Pokemon games traditionally being released exclusively for Nintendo platforms.

We've followed up with The Pokemon Company to narrow down exactly when we can expect to see the game launched in the US and will report back with anything we learn.

Hearthstone and a number of other card games have already proven the iPad is an excellent system for the genre, and TCG Online looks to be a fine fit. Below, you'll find a handful of screenshots of the game from the App Store for you to have a look at. If you've played the existing version of TCG Online, you'll know almost exactly what to expect.
