How to check what a Pokemon card is worth
To know what a Pokemon card is worth, scan it, confirm it is the right card, read the Cardmarket estimate in euros, and then decide whether to keep it or trade it.
1. Scan the card
Open Oakly and point your phone camera at the Pokemon card. Recognition runs on the device, so you can identify a card from a binder, a stack of duplicates, or a card you just pulled.
2. Confirm the identity
Check the name, set, card number, and language against the card in your hand. A price is only useful when it refers to that exact card, including the language printed on it.
3. Read the Cardmarket estimate in euros
Oakly shows a euro estimate sourced from Cardmarket, Europe's largest marketplace for trading cards. The figure is updated regularly. It is an estimate and can differ from a completed sale.
4. Decide whether to keep or trade
Use the estimate as context. Keep cards you want in the collection, set duplicates aside for a trade, or research a marketplace listing if you decide to sell. Oakly organizes the collection. It is not itself a marketplace.
Why the scan has to come before the price
Collectors usually want the worth of a specific physical card, not a generic catalog entry. Localized names, reprints, and mixed-language binders make it easy to look up the wrong card.
Oakly starts from the card you are holding. That matters for French, German, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese, and English cards that often sit in the same European collection.
What the euro estimate does and does not tell you
Card prices are sourced from Cardmarket and displayed in euros. They are estimates of market context, not an offer to buy the card and not a guaranteed sale price.
Condition, edition, and the exact listing you later choose can all move the number. Read the current estimate in the app before you keep, trade, or sell.
Oakly is an unofficial fan-made app. It is not affiliated with The Pokemon Company or with Cardmarket.
