Available tools 11

Read directly from the server with tools/list, grouped by what they act on. If a tool disappears, we record the date.

card
get_card
Get one Pokémon TCG Pocket card's available catalog data: HP, attacks with energy costs and damage, abilities, weakness, retreat cost, evolution, artist, rarity, and artwork. Trainer cards return their rules text and subtype instead of attacks. Accepts either a printing id like 'A1-001' or a gameplay card id like 'PK_000010'.
cards
search_cards
Search the Pokémon TCG Pocket card catalog by name, attack, ability, artist, or id, with optional filters for set, energy type, stage, card kind, rarity, Trainer subtype, HP range, weakness, and retreat cost. Returns up to 20 summarized cards plus the total number of matches.
catalog
catalog_info
Catalog metadata: game version, schema version, card/printing/set/pack counts, and supported locales. Quote the game version alongside any simulation result so the evidence stays pinned to the data it was computed from.
evaluate
evaluate_deck
Check a 20-card Pokémon TCG Pocket deck against the game's rules (exactly 20 cards, at most 2 copies of a card, at least one Basic Pokémon) and return build advice: missing evolution lines, energy-type spread, Pokémon/Trainer balance, missing staple Trainers, and known card synergies. Takes gameplay card ids, not printing ids.
locales
list_locales
List every locale code the catalog has translations for. Pass one as 'locale' to any other tool for localized card, set, and pack names.
packs
list_packs
List every Pokémon TCG Pocket booster pack with its id, parent set id, and localized name. Pack ids identify where a printing can be pulled.
printings
list_printings
List every printing of one card across all sets: printing id, set, collector number, rarity, artist, and canonical page URL. Accepts either a printing id like 'A1-001' or a gameplay card id like 'PK_000010'. get_card only returns the first printing; use this when the question is about reprints, alt arts, or pull sources.
sets
list_sets
List every Pokémon TCG Pocket set with its id and localized name. Use the ids to filter search_cards by set.
simulate
simulate_matchup
Run two legal 20-card Pokémon TCG Pocket decks through the Battle Lab rules engine using deterministic heuristic AI. Returns wins, draws, failures, average turns/actions, and a short sample game log. This measures the built-in AI policy, not human skill or competitive win probability.
suggest
suggest_deck
Build a complete, legal 20-card Pokémon TCG Pocket deck around a chosen card. Returns a named archetype, why it works, limitations, and the full card list with copy counts. Trainer targets produce a legal baseline with an explicit effect-data limitation. Give either a card name to search for or a gameplay card id.
trial
trial_deck
Solo-trial one legal 20-card Pokémon TCG Pocket deck: opening-hand consistency (Basics per opener, Trainer density, how often each card shows up across sampled hands) plus mirror self-play with the deck on both seats (closing speed and first-player bias). Use this to tune a single deck; use simulate_matchup to compare two decks. Takes gameplay card ids, not printing ids.

Pokemon TCG Pocket Catalog — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Pokemon TCG Pocket Catalog do?
It exposes 11 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: catalog_info, evaluate_deck, get_card, list_locales, list_packs, list_printings and 5 more. The full list with descriptions is on this page — we take it from the server itself via tools/list, not from a README. How MCP servers expose tools in the first place →
Is Pokemon TCG Pocket Catalog working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 71 of 91 checks got a reply (78.0%), average response time 251 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
The registry lists Pokemon TCG Pocket Catalog as active — why does it not respond?
The official MCP registry stores what the author submitted; it does not verify that the server still runs. We check the endpoint ourselves, and this one does not answer. Catalogues that copy the registry without checking will show it as working.
How do I connect Pokemon TCG Pocket Catalog?
Copy the ready config from this page — we generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each with the file path that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.
Does Pokemon TCG Pocket Catalog need an API key?
No. Pokemon TCG Pocket Catalog completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 11 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is Pokemon TCG Pocket Catalog?
It answers our handshake in 251 ms on average, which is faster than 68% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
