Aside from deckbuilding and collecting, players can trade with other trainers, create avatars, and unlock various accessories to customize the app. The game is free-to-play, and cards and accessories are unlocked through in-game currency and daily challenges. Languages supported at launch include: English, French, German, Italian, Spanish, and Brazilian Portuguese.

Serebii reports cards and other content will carry over from Online to Live if players log in with the same Trainer Club account. HeartGold and SoulSilver series cards will not carry over. While the rest will transfer, only cards from Lost Thunder and later packs will be playable at launch.

Pokémon Trading Card Game Live is coming soon to iOS, Android, PC, and Mac.
