Wishlist

A Pokémon card wishlist you build by looking at cards

A wishlist usually starts with a list of card names. On IllusCards it starts with the art: you come across a card you love, and with one tap it is saved.

There are two lists, because wanting to look at a card and wanting to buy it are different things: Favourites and the Buy list.

Two lists, two jobs

Favourites: what you love

Any card you like can be a favourite, whether or not you ever plan to own it. Favourites also form a binder of their own, which keeps itself up to date.

Buy list: what you want

One tap puts a card, or the exact variant on show, on your buy list, with a quantity. It holds up to 500 lines. This is the list to use as a shopping or wishlist tracker.

How to build your wishlist

  1. Swipe through the deck, or search for a card you already have in mind.
  2. Open a card you like and tap Favourite, Buy list or both.
  3. Add many at once: select cards in your collection, or add everything still missing from a binder.
  4. Open the list when you are ready to buy. One button takes the whole list to TCGplayer.
  5. When a card arrives, tap Got it and it moves from the list to your physical collection.

What to know before you rely on it

Your lists are private. Without an account they stay on your device; with one, they follow you to your other devices. You can download or delete your data in Settings.

Some links to TCGplayer are affiliate links: if you buy after clicking, the operator of IllusCards may earn a commission, at no extra cost to you. IllusCards says so next to those links. TCGplayer is an American shop, so check shipping if you live elsewhere.

IllusCards is not a price tracker. It has no price alerts, so a wishlist here will not tell you when a card gets cheaper.

Questions

Where can I create a Pokémon card wishlist?

On IllusCards you can keep one for free in your browser: favourites for the cards you love and a buy list for the cards you want to own. No account is needed, and the list stays on your device unless you choose to sign in.

How can I save Pokémon cards I want to buy?

Put them on the buy list. Open a card, tap Buy list and choose the variant and quantity if you need to. From the list, one button takes all of it to TCGplayer, and Got it moves a card that arrived to your physical collection.

How do I build a Pokémon card wishlist if I do not know the card names?

Swipe through the deck and save what you like as you go. The name, set and number come with the card, so you end up with an exact list without having looked anything up.
