How to scan a Pokémon card to know its value

June 30, 2026

Short answer: install Poke - Deck, point your camera at the card, and the app identifies it and shows its market value — in English, French and Japanese — in about a second.

No more typing the name, hunting for the right edition, or comparing listings by hand: the scan does the identification for you.

The steps

Open Poke - Deck and place the card in the frame.
Tap to scan. The AI reads the name, language and collector number.
Read the price. The app shows the current value (Cardmarket, eBay) for the card’s own market, plus PSA 9 / 10 graded comparables.
Add it to a collection to track its value over time.

Why scanning beats manual search

The same artwork often exists in several versions (different set, number, rarity), and each has a different value. By reading the collector number straight off the card, scanning avoids edition mix-ups — the number-one cause of bad estimates.

French and Japanese cards

Unlike most scanners, Poke - Deck also recognises French and Japanese cards, including Japan-exclusive sets, and prices each on its own market.
