How to track your Pokémon collection value

Log owned TCG printings, match set and grade correctly, and watch live floors plus historical portfolio value — without a stale spreadsheet.


A binder full of Evolving Skies chase, Base Set classics, and modern SIRs is hard to value from memory. Spreadsheets go stale; sold comps on one card do not tell you what the whole collection is worth this week.

Why Pokémon collection value drifts

  • +Printing and set matter — Shadowless vs Unlimited, or the wrong SIR art, can swing hundreds.
  • +PSA 10 premiums move separately from raw floors.
  • +Sealed product and singles behave like different markets.
  • +One viral reprint or set drop can reprice a whole binder overnight.

Track owned Pokémon cards on GrailHawk

Open Portfolio and add each card you own — or multi-select from /cards or /pokemon. We store the marketplace query and optional grade, refresh a conservative live floor, and snapshot total value so you can see history, not just today’s ask.

Match the printing before you trust P/L

Confirm set, number, and treatment on the card page. A Moonbreon logged as a common Umbreon will invent fake gains.

Hunt on Wishlist, value on Portfolio

Keep price alerts for cards you still want. When you buy, use I own this or Add to portfolio from the alert email so the watch pauses and the holding starts counting toward collection value.

Where to start

  1. 1Open your highest-value cards from the Pokédex, set guides, or search.
  2. 2Tap Track in portfolio (or Select mode on the cards grid).
  3. 3Enter cost basis and grade so unrealized P/L is honest.
  4. 4Check Portfolio weekly — or enable the digest on /account.
