Pokémon set checklist tracker

A Pokémon set checklist tracker shows every card in a set and marks the ones you already have. Collector Scan is that kind of tracker. As you identify cards — by scanning one at a time, by searching, or, after you sign in, by importing a list — you can watch a set fill in and keep a hunt list for the cards you still want.

This page explains how set tracking works. It is not a price list. Signed-out visitors will not see dollar amounts, set totals, or “this set is worth” figures here. After you sign in, Collector Scan can show estimated values in US dollars for cards in your collection, each with a source and the date of the estimate. Those figures are estimates, not a promise of what a set or a single card will sell for.

What a set checklist is for

Collectors use a checklist to answer a simple question: which prints in this set do I still need? The answer depends on exact prints, not just character names. A set list is organized by collector number. A card such as 4/102 is a different slot from a later print of the same character, and a secret rare numbered above the set size is its own slot too.

Language is part of the list. An English set and a Japanese set with similar artwork are not the same checklist. Collector Scan tracks English and Japanese sets separately so a card you own in one language does not accidentally tick a box in the other.

A checklist is also a way to plan. Once you can see the holes, you can keep a hunt list for shows, trades, or a shop visit — the cards you are actually looking for, not a vague sense that a set is “almost done.”

How to build a checklist in Collector Scan

Start with the set you care about, then add the cards you already have.

If the cards are in front of you, open the scanner and identify one card at a time. Confirm the match — set, number, language, and variant — and add it. The corresponding slot in that set can then fill in. If you already know the name and number, search for the print and add it the same way.

If you already track cards in a spreadsheet or another app, import a CSV so you do not have to rescan a collection you have already logged. You can undo an import if the file was wrong. After the cards are in Collector Scan, set progress and hunt lists use the same confirmed prints.

You do not have to finish a set in one sitting. Add cards as you pick them up. The tracker is meant to stay current as the collection grows, not to be a one-time inventory.

Reading a set list

On most modern cards, the collector number and set symbol sit in a bottom corner. A number like 25/198 usually means card 25 in a set with 198 numbered cards. Numbers above that total are often secret rares. Prefixes such as TG, GG, or SV can mark special subsets that still belong to the set’s broader family.

Very early English Base Set cards have no set symbol. If you are unsure which set a card belongs to, identify the card first — with the camera or by search — rather than guessing from artwork alone. Two cards can look alike and still belong to different lists.

When public set pages are available, you can browse English and Japanese sets, open a set, and move from the list to an individual card page. Those pages show names, numbers, and other card facts. They do not show prices to signed-out visitors. Sign in when you want an estimated value for a print you have confirmed.

Hunt lists and everyday use

A hunt list is the short version of a checklist: the cards you still want, ready to consult when you are looking through a binder, a case, or a trade list. Keep it specific. “Any Charizard” is not a slot. A set, a number, a language, and a finish is a slot.

As you add cards, the hunt list should shrink and the set should fill. If a scan or an import lands on the wrong print, fix it — otherwise the checklist will show progress you do not actually have.

Estimated values, when you are signed in, can sit next to a card as a labeled reference. They should not be the reason a slot is marked complete, and they should not be treated as a set total you can cash. Condition, market movement, and the date on the estimate all sit between a number on a screen and a real sale.

What this tracker is not

Collector Scan is an independent fan tool. It is not an official set registry, and it is not affiliated with, endorsed, or sponsored by Nintendo, Creatures, GAME FREAK, or The Pokémon Company. The product name is Collector Scan. This page uses the name of the card game only to describe the sets you can track.

This tracker does not grade cards, buy or sell them, or display prices on a signed-out page. It does not mark a whole binder from a single photo. You add cards one confirmed print at a time, or in a file you import and can review.

Collector Scan works in the browser on iPhone and Android. You can install it on your home screen and come back to the same checklists as the collection changes.

FAQ

What is a Pokémon set checklist tracker?

It is a tool that lists the cards in a set and shows which ones you have and which you still need. In Collector Scan, confirmed cards fill set progress, and you can keep a hunt list for the missing prints.

Can I track English and Japanese sets?

Yes. They are separate checklists. A Japanese print does not complete an English slot, and the other way around.

Do I have to scan every card?

No. You can scan one card at a time, search by name and number, or import a spreadsheet. Every method should still land on the exact print.

Will the checklist show an estimated value for my set?

Not on this signed-out page, and not as a promised total. After you sign in, you can see estimated values for cards, in US dollars, with a source and date. Estimates change and are not a sale price for the set.

How do I know which set a card belongs to?

Look at the set symbol and collector number, or identify the card in Collector Scan. Do not rely on artwork alone.

Does this work on a phone?

Yes. Collector Scan runs in the browser on iPhone and Android, and you can put it on your home screen from the install page.

Is this an official Pokémon checklist?

No. Collector Scan is an independent fan tool and is not affiliated with, endorsed, or sponsored by Nintendo, Creatures, GAME FREAK, or The Pokémon Company.
