THE JOURNAL
The cards you'll play next are already out in Japan.
We read them over there, one at a time, through the two months when nobody here can read them yet.

Everything you read here is counted off the cards themselves. When the game moves, the page moves.
The Poko guides
A little knowledge goes a long way.
Choosing between two boxes, or wondering what a star on a card means? Let us walk you through it.
What to buy, countedBooster box, Elite Trainer Box, League Battle Deck: every shelf wants your money and none of them tells you what the decks people actually play are made of. We count that, off real tournament lists, and we tell you which product can even contain what you need.ExploreRarity symbols, countedThe symbol at the bottom of your card tells you which pile it came out of. Everyone shows you the symbols. We counted how many cards carry each one, set by set, so you can tell at a glance whether the card in your hand is one in three or one in eight hundred.ExploreJapanese cards: reading them, and what they really areThey come out first, they come in smaller sets, and the numbers on them read without any translation at all. Here is the card field by field, the words that come back on every one of them, and the measured gap between a Japanese release and ours.ExploreUpcoming sets and release datesThe next expansion already exists — it has been on sale in Japan for weeks. Here is what is in it, and the window our measured Japan-to-here gap puts it in. Plus every past release with its real date on both sides.Explore

Questions we all start with.
How is the shop different from the catalogue?
The shop shows items for sale, with prices and availability. The catalogue helps you explore Pokémon cards. A card being in the catalogue does not mean it is for sale.
How do I find the right version of a card?
Start with its name, then check the number at the bottom and the set it belongs to. Before buying, also check the language and condition listed on the item’s page.
Do I need boosters to build a deck?
You do not know which cards a booster contains until you open it. If you have a specific deck list, first work out which cards you are missing. You will then know exactly which singles to look for.
Where can I see all the cards in a set?
Choose a set in the catalogue. Its page brings the cards together so you can find a Pokémon, compare illustrations and open any card that interests you.
