Scan English, Japanese and Chinese Pokémon cards. ChaseBinder finds the exact printing, prices it from Scrydex, and fills your Pokédex and master sets.
Pokémon in ChaseBinder
The details that make Pokémon cards different, and how ChaseBinder handles each one.
Scanning
ChaseBinder reads the name and collector number — a digit off still counts when the name agrees — then compares your photo with every printing of that name to land on the right one. TAG TEAM cards read every Pokémon on them.
Prices
Scrydex’s near-mint market price for the printing you own — Holo, Reverse Holo, 1st Edition and the rest — refreshed daily. Japanese cards get their Japanese printing’s own price.
Master sets
Every set you’ve started, secret rares included, in every printing Scrydex lists. Stamps, Cosmos holos, prerelease and other extras are listed on the card but never counted.
Pokédex
Light up all 1,025 species, or the Ultimate Pokédex of 1,437 entries: Megas, Gigantamax, regional forms, Unown A–Z, Arceus types and more. A TAG TEAM card fills every Pokémon on it.
Binders
A Pokédex (the whole thing or one generation), a master set in English or Japanese, an illustrator, one Pokémon — every card showing it, oldest first — or a theme of your own.
Binder page scans
Shoot a whole 9, 16 or 25-pocket page. The page itself helps — the set most pockets share, numbers running in order, Pokédex order — and on a Pokédex page the empty pockets are named, so you know what to chase.
Select
In a master set or a checklist binder, tick the cards you have — or every missing one — and add them all at once, in the printing you choose, with their market total.
Languages
Japanese cards are spotted from their kana and matched to Japan’s own printings. Chinese cards are recognized in Simplified and Traditional by their Pokédex number or name; no price source lists them, so you can add your own price.
Wishlist
Your wishlist starts with 86 sought-after Pokémon cards, totals what you still need, and checks itself off the moment you collect one.
Inside the app
Real screens from ChaseBinder on iPhone.
Master sets
Open a set to see every card in every printing, what you own and what it would cost to finish. Show only what’s missing, select every missing card at once, and pick the printing to add.
Pokédex
Switch between the National Pokédex and the Ultimate one, a generation at a time. Missing entries wait as dashed pockets with their number and name; a Pokédex binder lays them out page by page.
Also in ChaseBinder
