What makes a Pokémon card valuable?
Three things drive Pokémon card prices: rarity tier (Illustration Rare, Special Illustration Rare, Secret Rare, and Hyper Rare sit at the top), print run (older sets like Base Set 1st Edition or SM Black Star Promos had limited distribution), and character demand (Charizard, Pikachu, Mewtwo, and Eevee consistently command premiums over other Pokémon at the same rarity).
Catchinary's index value (CIV) normalizes market prices across TCGplayer and Cardmarket so you can track how a card or an illustrator's entire catalog trends over time without opening every listing.

How Catchinary tracks prices
Every card on Catchinary is joined to live TCGplayer (USD) and Cardmarket (EUR) pricing via the pokemontcg.io feed, refreshed multiple times per day. We display the market price by default (median of recent sold listings) and break out low / mid / high / direct on each card's detail page. Graded-price estimates (PSA 9 / PSA 10 / CGC Perfect) are shown when available from secondary sources.
No scraping, no affiliate manipulation. The numbers you see are the numbers the marketplaces report.

Click any question to expand.
How many Pokémon TCG cards are there?
Catchinary tracks 20,237 cards across 172 English-language sets from Base Set (1999) to the latest release, pulled from the pokemontcg.io public API. The global count including Japanese-only prints is higher but this index covers the English market that TCGplayer and Cardmarket price against.
Where do the prices come from?
TCGplayer (USD) and Cardmarket (EUR) via the pokemontcg.io feed, refreshed multiple times per day. Each card's detail page shows low, mid, high, market, and direct prices per variant (Normal, Holofoil, Reverse Holo, 1st Edition, etc.).
What's the most valuable Pokémon card right now?
Mewtwo ★ (Holon Phantoms) currently tops the index at $6000.00 on TCGplayer. See the Top 5 chase cards above or browse the full most expensive cards list.
How do I search for a specific card?
Use the search box at the top of this page or in the header. Queries match card name, tcg_api_id (e.g. "swsh4-25"), set name, rarity, illustrator, and card number. Partial matches work - "charizard ex" returns every Charizard ex print across every set.
Can I see cards by a specific illustrator?
Yes. Catchinary indexes 386 Pokémon TCG artists with a dedicated page per illustrator, listing every card they've drawn grouped by set with prices and career stats.
What's a Pokémon CIV?
CIV (Catchinary Index Value) is our normalized financial-index-style number for a card or illustrator. For illustrators, we publish an ACIV (Artist CIV) that averages the market price of their priced cards times 100 - so 432.5 reads as an average priced card of $4.33, scaled the way stock indexes are usually formatted.
Does Catchinary cover Japanese-only Pokémon cards?
Not yet. The index currently mirrors pokemontcg.io which tracks English-language releases. Japanese-only prints (Promo sets, CoroCoro inserts, Campaign prints) are on the roadmap once we add a second data source.
