■ Pokémon Card Price Checker

What is your Pokémon card worth?

◇ Quick answer

Enter either the complete printed number (for example 150/165) or just the part before the slash (150); both work. Keep letter prefixes such as TG12 or GG45. The checker shows matching exact printings, their latest tracked price, and 7-day change. It is free to use without an account.

Prices are refreshed daily from TCGplayer market-price data via TCGCSV. Each displayed value applies to the tracked price variant named on the card detail page. It is a market reference, not a guaranteed sale price; condition, grading, location, fees, and timing can change an individual sale.

Tip — Enter either the complete printed number (for example 150/165) or just the part before the slash (150); both work. Keep letter prefixes such as TG12 or GG45. Add a set name to narrow the results when the same number appears in multiple expansions.

The fastest way to price a Pokémon card you actually own.

Most price tools want you to scan, sign up, build a portfolio, upload inventory, or pick from a 19,000-card dropdown. This one wants three keystrokes: the number on the card.

01Feature

A current market reference.

Prices are refreshed daily from TCGplayer market-price data via TCGCSV. Each displayed value applies to the tracked price variant named on the card detail page. It is a market reference, not a guaranteed sale price; condition, grading, location, fees, and timing can change an individual sale.

02Feature

Number lookup beats name search.

Two cards named "Charizard" can be worth $4 or $400 depending on the set and print. The number disambiguates instantly — you don't need to know the set name or rarity to find your card.

03Feature

Context, not just a number.

Every result opens the exact printing. Its card page names the selected price variant and shows available variant prices, daily history, 7-day and 30-day change when enough snapshots exist, and set price rank.

Where is the card number printed?

On modern Pokémon cards (2003 onwards) the number sits in the lower corner of the card face, in tiny text. Older cards use a different scheme — see below.

◇ Modern era — 2003 onwards

Look at the bottom corner of the card. You'll see something like 150/165, 011/091, or TG12/30. The first part identifies the card. You can enter the complete printed number or only that first part: both 150/165 and 150 work in the form above.

Letter-prefixed numbers like TG12 (Trainer Gallery), GG45 (Galarian Gallery), or SV94 (Shiny Vault) come from subset slots within a parent expansion. Paste them exactly as printed.

◇ Vintage — 1999 to early 2000s

Base Set, Jungle, Fossil, Team Rocket, Gym Heroes, and Neo-era cards used a simple X/Y scheme in the bottom-right corner — same logic, just no set codes. 4/102 (Base Set Charizard) means card 4 of 102.

Special vintage prints — Gold Stars, Crystal types, Shining Pokémon, 1st Edition holos — use the same number scheme as the rest of their set. The number tells us the slot; the set name tells us the era.

What does the market price actually mean?

A short, honest version — because the most useful thing about a price guide is knowing exactly what its number does and doesn't represent.

Prices are refreshed daily from TCGplayer market-price data via TCGCSV. Each displayed value applies to the tracked price variant named on the card detail page. It is a market reference, not a guaranteed sale price; condition, grading, location, fees, and timing can change an individual sale.

Match the displayed variant to the card you own before comparing prices. A Normal, Holofoil, or Reverse Holofoil version can have a different value. Wear, centering, language, grading, seller fees, location, and the timing of the last data refresh can also change what a buyer pays.

Use the displayed price as a comparison point, not as an appraisal or a promised sale value. Chase Season shows the source value it receives; it does not calculate its own seven-day average or sales median.

The card detail page names the selected price variant and, when supplied, lists the other TCGCSV price variants for that exact printing. It also shows the available daily history, recent change, set price rank, and collector chase count.

Chase Season is independent and not affiliated with Nintendo, Game Freak, Creatures Inc., The Pokémon Company, any marketplace, or any grading service.

Pokémon card price checker, answered

The number, the data source, the edge cases — the questions people ask most before pasting their first card in.

8 questions answered
Q.01

Where do I find my Pokémon card's number?

The number is the small fraction printed on the lower-left or lower-right corner, such as 150/165 or TG12/30. Enter the first part; both 150 and 150/165 work.
Q.02

Is the Pokémon card price checker free?

Yes. No account or paywall is required. Enter the number, run the check, and see the latest reference price. Market data refreshes every 24 hours.
Q.03

Where does the price data come from?

Prices are refreshed daily from TCGplayer market-price data via TCGCSV. Each displayed value applies to the tracked price variant named on the card detail page. It is a market reference, not a guaranteed sale price; condition, grading, location, fees, and timing can change an individual sale.
Q.04

The same number appears in multiple sets — how do I pick mine?

Enter the set name or its three-letter code in the optional Set field. If you leave it blank, every matching card across every set is returned, sorted by price.
Q.05

Does this work for old cards from Base Set, Neo, or e-Card?

Yes. Chase Season tracks cards from the 1999 Base Set through the current Mega Evolution era. Pricing is strongest where recent sales provide enough market data.
Q.06

Why does my card show a different price than on eBay?

Condition, variant, and market timing can all differ. The checker shows an ungraded market reference; eBay sold listings are individual transactions.
Q.07

Can I check sealed boxes or graded slabs here?

Not yet. Chase Season is a singles price index focused on individual cards. Sealed products and graded populations need specialised price guides.
Q.08

Can holo and reverse-holo cards have different prices?

Yes. The checker shows the selected tracked price variant for each exact printing. When TCGCSV supplies other variants, the card detail page lists their prices separately.
