Pokémon card prices: find out what your cards are worth
A card’s value depends on the exact print, its variant and its condition. TCG Lens works like a card price scanner: it helps you find the right card first, then shows its reference price and how that price has moved over time.

How to check a Pokémon card’s price
Scan or search the card
Use the scanner or search the catalog by name.
Confirm the exact print
Match the set symbol and collector number printed on your card.
Pick the variant
Holo, reverse holo and other versions can have very different prices.
Read the price and its history
Check the current reference price and how it has changed over time.
Why the exact variant matters
Two cards with the same Pokémon and artwork can be worth very different amounts. A holo and a reverse holo print, a promo, or the same card reprinted in another set are separate items for buyers and sellers.
Matching the set and collector number — and choosing the right variant — is the difference between an accurate value and a misleading one. That’s why TCG Lens asks you to confirm these details before saving a card.
Price history: trend or spike?
A single price is a snapshot. Price history shows how a card’s reference price has changed, which helps you tell a lasting trend from a short spike before you buy, sell or trade.
What affects a Pokémon card’s value
Condition
Centering, corners, edges and surface all matter. Small differences in condition can change the price.
Grading
A graded copy from a recognized grading company can trade at a different price than an ungraded (raw) copy.
Demand
Popular Pokémon, artists and cards used in competitive play attract more buyers.
Condition, pre-grading and price
Condition can change a card’s value a lot. The pre-grading estimate in TCG Lens helps you judge a card’s condition before you decide whether professional grading is worth the cost.
Listings show what a seller is asking, not what cards actually sell for. Condition, variant, marketplace and timing also explain differences, so use reference prices as a guide.
Yes. TCG Lens adds up the reference prices of the cards in your collection to give you an estimated total value.
You can choose your preferred currency in the app’s settings.
Usually, yes: graded copies often trade at different prices than raw copies, depending on the grade and the grading company. Record the grade in your collection so you know exactly which copy you own.
