Add Pokémon Cards with TCG Auto-Fill

Search a card name — set, rarity, and art fill in

Add a Pokémon card by name and Owlect searches the Pokémon TCG API as you type, showing matching cards with their artwork. Pick the printing you own and the set, card number, card type, rarity, HP, artist, and official card image fill in for you — so each card you add is identified precisely, with its art as the photo. The database covers all official English sets from Base Set through the latest releases, so a 1999 Charizard and this month’s chase card both resolve the same way.

How it works

  1. Open your Pokémon Cards collection and add a card

    Open a Pokémon Cards collection and tap “Add Item”. The name field is the search box — lookup is built in, with no key to paste and no account to connect.

  2. Search by card name

    Type the Pokémon’s name. After three characters Owlect queries the Pokémon TCG API and lists matching cards, each with its set, card number, and rarity in the subtitle so you can pick the exact printing among lookalikes.

  3. Pick the exact printing

    Cards repeat across sets, so choose the one that matches your set and number. Owlect auto-fills the set, card number, card type, rarity, HP, and artist, and uses the official card image as the photo.

  4. Add condition and value, then save

    Grade the card (Mint through Poor, including Near Mint and Played) and record an estimated value if you track prices — those are yours to enter — then save and search for the next one.

What gets imported

Frequently asked questions

Does Owlect cover every Pokémon card?

Owlect uses the Pokémon TCG API, which includes all official English sets from Base Set through the latest releases. Because a card can be reprinted across sets, you pick the exact printing — by set and number — when you add it.

Which card details fill in automatically?

Choosing a card auto-fills the set, card number, card type, rarity, HP, and artist, and uses the official card image as the photo. Condition and estimated value are not in the catalog, so you grade and price each card yourself.

How do I tell two printings of the same card apart?

Each suggestion shows the set name and card number alongside the name, so a Base Set Charizard and a later reprint are easy to distinguish. Match the set and number on your card to the one you select.

Can I track card condition and value?

Yes. After the details auto-fill, set the Condition (Mint through Poor) and an Estimated Value to log current market prices. Those two fields are always yours to enter — the lookup never touches them.

Can I add a binder’s worth of cards at once?

Auto-fill is per card, so each one is a quick search and a tap. If you already keep a card list in a spreadsheet, the CSV import maps Set, Card Number, and Rarity columns and brings the list in together.
