About Ultraball

Ultraball is an independent price guide for English Pokémon cards. It covers 20,797 cards across 185 sets, from Base Set in 1999 to the newest release, with raw and graded values, recorded sales and a checklist for every set.

What the numbers are

Every price is an estimate of what a card sells for today, built from completed sales and live marketplace prices. Ungraded values are for near-mint copies; graded values are per grader and grade. Each price carries a confidence mark so a card with two sales is never presented like a card with two hundred. The full method, including what we leave out, is on how we price cards.

How often it updates

Prices and sales update once a day. The prices on the site right now are from Sep 28, 2026. Price history goes back to the first sale we recorded for each card.

What it covers

English-language cards only, for now. Japanese and other markets price differently and would need their own sales record rather than a converted English price. Sealed product prices are on the sealed products page and the market as a whole is tracked by the Pokémon card index.

How the site is funded

Ultraball is free to use. Some links to marketplaces are affiliate links: if you buy through one, the marketplace may pay us a commission at no cost to you. Those links are marked, and no marketplace or seller can pay to change a price, a ranking or what a page says.
