PokéChase is a fan-made pack opening simulator for the Pokémon Trading Card Game. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Nintendo, Creatures, GAME FREAK, or The Pokémon Company. Rip simulated booster packs from 140 real English sets, from Base Set in 1999 to today's newest expansion. Every rip runs on community pull rates and daily market prices, so you always know what you pulled and what it is worth. EVERY SET, EVERY ERA Open packs from Scarlet & Violet, Sword & Shield, Sun & Moon, XY, Black & White, and all the way back to the original WotC sets. First Edition, Shadowless and Unlimited printings are separate sets with their own cards and prices. HONEST ODDS Pull rates come from large community samples, never guesses. See the odds for every rarity tier before you open, the expected value of a pack against its market price, and how your session compares to the math. CHASE YOUR CARD Pick any chase card and rip until it lands. The chase curve shows how many packs it usually takes and where your run sits against everyone else's odds. A LUCK METER THAT TALKS BACK A Pokéball gauge reads your session against pack EV and tells you how it is going in battle text. Tap it for the full session story: value, spend and EV drawn over every rip. MADE FOR YOUR HANDS Tear the pack open with a swipe and feel each hit land with haptics. Tilt the phone and holo cards catch the light like the real thing. Share any pull straight from the card. SCAN A CARD Point the camera at any card and get its name, set, printings and current price in a moment. PRICES AND SEALED PRODUCTS Daily market prices for every card and print. Browse sealed products across every set with current market values, from booster boxes to Elite Trainer Boxes. WORKS OFFLINE All 140 sets are bundled in the app. Download any set's card art once and rip it on a plane, in a tunnel, or anywhere else. Prices refresh when you are back online. YOUR COLLECTION, ON EVERY DEVICE Sign in with Apple or Google to mark the cards and sealed products you own and keep an eBay watchlist. Both follow you between the app and the website. Signing in is optional; everything else works without it. FREE, WITH NOTHING TO BUY No purchases, no currencies, no wagers. Every pack is simulated and free to open, as many as you like. Card images and names are the property of their respective owners and are used to identify the physical trading cards they depict.
