Comment choisir les bonnes cartes pour sa collection

01

Pick the Right Format for How You Want to Open

Pokémon sealed product comes in many formats. Booster boxes (36 packs) deliver the best price-per-pack and the highest hit volume — ideal for serious rippers and PC builders. Elite Trainer Boxes (ETBs) include 9–10 packs plus sleeves, dice, and a promo card, great as gifts or starter products. Premium Collection Boxes and Ultra-Premium Collections (UPCs) bundle packs with oversized promos, pins, and exclusive cards — collectible in their own right. Booster bundles, tins, and blisters are smaller, lower-cost rips.

02

Pick the Set That Fits Your Chase

Modern Pokémon collectors mostly chase the Scarlet & Violet era sets, which feature alt arts, special illustration rares, and full art trainers that drive secondary market value. Classic-set chasers focus on Sword & Shield era sets like Evolving Skies and Lost Origin, both already considered modern classics. Vintage collectors hunt Base Set, Jungle, Fossil, and Neo-era cards (1999–2002), where graded Charizards and holos can reach extraordinary prices. Special anniversary sets like Celebrations and 151 reissue iconic Gen 1 art and are especially popular.

03

Buy Authentic — Pokémon Counterfeits Are Everywhere

Pokémon is the most counterfeited TCG on the planet. Resealed booster boxes, fake ETBs, and counterfeit singles (especially Charizard) are extremely common in unauthorized channels. Always buy sealed Pokémon product from trusted dealers sourced through authorized distribution. For singles, check the texture, font, energy symbols, and back coloring — and when in doubt, buy graded. PSA, BGS, and CGC all grade Pokémon, with PSA and CGC being the most popular for TCG.

Questions fréquemment posées

What are the most popular Pokémon cards to collect right now?

Modern collectors chase alt arts and special illustration rares from the Scarlet & Violet era sets. Charizard (in any form, any era) remains the single most chased Pokémon in the hobby. Other top targets include Pikachu promos, Umbreon and Eevee evolutions, and classic vintage Base Set holos. Anniversary sets like Celebrations and Pokémon 151 are also extremely popular for their reimagined Gen 1 art.

What’s the difference between a booster box, an ETB, and a UPC?

A booster box is 36 packs with no extras — best price per pack. An Elite Trainer Box (ETB) is 9–10 packs plus accessories (sleeves, dice, deck box, promo card). A Premium Collection Box bundles a few packs with a promo card or pin. An Ultra-Premium Collection (UPC) is the top-tier sealed product with multiple packs, exclusive promos, oversized cards, and collectible packaging — often released for anniversary or special sets.

Is sealed Pokémon a good long-term hold?

Historically, sealed Pokémon booster boxes from past eras have appreciated significantly, especially from sets that produced iconic chase cards. Past performance doesn’t guarantee future results, and the market can be volatile in the short term. If you’re buying sealed for long-term holding, focus on sets with strong chase cards and store the product carefully — sealed condition matters enormously for resale value.

How do I know if a Pokémon card is fake?

Common signs of counterfeit Pokémon cards include incorrect font weights, missing or wrong energy symbols, off-color backs, wrong card stock thickness, and texture inconsistencies on holo cards. The single safest way to know your cards are real is to buy from authorized dealers and to grade valuable singles through PSA, BGS, or CGC. We inspect every single we sell and source sealed product through authorized channels.

Can I grade Pokémon cards through CardChasers?

Yes. We run monthly bulk PSA submissions out of our Laval shop, which works for Pokémon as well as sports cards. CGC is also popular for TCG specifically and is worth considering for certain types of cards. We can pre-screen your Pokémon in person to help you pick the best candidates before submitting.

Are the Pokémon cards sold at CardChasers authentic?

Yes. We source sealed Pokémon product through authorized distribution and inspect all singles carefully before listing. Authentication is especially important in Pokémon because of how prevalent counterfeits are, and we take it seriously.

Do you ship Pokémon cards across Canada and the US?

Yes, we ship across Canada and the United States from our Vimont, Laval location. Local collectors can also pick up orders in-store at 1712 Boulevard des Laurentides, seven days a week.
