Why PokéCollector exists
A collector app with the boring parts handled.
PokéCollector is free and made for people who want a useful, private overview of their Pokémon TCG collection without maintaining spreadsheets, losing track of binder goals, or giving every detail to a hosted service.
Set progress
Browse sets, open checklists, edit quantities or versions, and see what is missing. Short-code search like PFL 001 jumps directly to specific cards.
Value tracking
Use Cardmarket EUR and TCGPlayer USD data from TCGdex, with history charts, portfolio snapshots, source labels, duplicates, and top movers.
Everything in one place
Built for real collections, not just a spreadsheet.
Plan binders, compare equivalent prints, manage duplicates, variants, sealed products, wishlists, user profiles, alerts, and value snapshots without giving your collection data to yet another hosted service.
Collection tracking
Add cards manually or by CSV import, then track quantity, condition, language, variant, and purchase price.
Price insights
Follow Cardmarket EUR and TCGPlayer USD data with history charts, portfolio snapshots, and clear labels when fallback data is used.
Binders and sets
Plan collection and wishlist binders, reserve owned copies, switch equivalent prints, and browse set checklists with progress.
Multi-user ready
Run it solo by default or enable trainer accounts with separate collections, profiles, comparisons, achievements, and social stats.
Multilingual interface
Use the compact dark interface in German, English, or Chinese across desktop, tablet, and mobile screens.
Admin utilities
Includes sync controls, scheduler settings, backup and restore, release/version tracking, CSV/PDF export, and image proxying.
Screenshots
A closer look at the app.

Smart scanning
From card photo to collection entry.
The scanner uses Gemini-powered recognition, fallback matching, number ranking, and visual verification to help match cards faster.
- Handles suffixes like ex, GX, VSTAR
- Retries temporary scanner availability issues
- Works with your self-hosted setup

First showcase
3D-printed dividers with NFC shortcuts
Community member f0rr3stfunk built plastic dividers for a card box and writes PokéCollector set links onto NFC tags. Tapping a phone on a divider can jump straight to the matching set overview in the app.
