COLLECTING GUIDE
Build an illustration Pokédex
Choose one illustrated card for each Pokémon, then use missing slots and saved choices to plan your next cards.
Choose the goal
An illustration Pokédex is one chosen card per Pokémon, not every printing of every species. Pick the art you enjoy and let the missing slots show which species still need a card. Senseiset also supports a full-set goal if that is what you want to finish.
Compare printings
Open a Pokémon’s available cards and compare the artwork, expansion, illustrator and number. A card’s exact set and number matter: two cards with the same Pokémon name can be different printings. The card you last inspected can remain visible as a reminder for an unfilled species slot.
Record the card you actually own
Mark the exact printing as owned. If you have several copies or different variants, record them separately with quantity and condition. A useful wish list distinguishes a card you want from one you already own.
Plan the next search
Filter to missing cards before visiting a shop or card fair. Open a few candidate illustrations, leave your preferred printing as the last one you viewed, and check the set and card number against the physical card before buying.
