[01]Links

One card. Every printing. Every language.

Most card lists stop at the card. CardCorpus keeps going: from an anniversary stamp back to the original, through its print runs, out to every reprint and every language.

75,723links like these across 66,494 cards: 15,213 reprints to their originals, 60,510 between languages.

[02]Tells

Spot the difference. Then filter on it.

Every copy says how to tell it apart, twice: in a sentence a collector can check against the card in their hand, and in fields a program can query.

For people

[03]How it's made

Nobody had this. So we built it.

CardCorpus isn't a copy of another list. It's what's left after pulling 13 sources together, settling every place they disagree, and checking the cards by hand.

[04]The scanner

Point. Shoot. Every card, named.

One card or a whole binder page in one photo. It names the exact print, not just the Pokémon, because it learned from every picture in CardCorpus. On your phone, offline, free.
