Build a Pokémon GO binder from your buddy and best catches

What belongs in a Pokémon GO binder?

Build this one from your game history, not a complete card list. Useful sections include:

• your longtime buddy or first partner
• favorite catches, shinies, and regionals
• a raid, battle, or gym team
• Blanche, Candela, Spark, Professor Willow, or Team GO Rocket
• events and places you still remember

The 2022 Pokémon GO TCG set is handy for on-theme cards. Its numbered list has 78 cards, including the three team leaders, Professor Willow, PokéStop, Lure Module, and Egg Incubator.

How much space do you need?

The six-page starter holds 54 cards. Give each page one job and you already have room for a buddy page, catches, shinies, a team, game characters, and memories.

Start with one nine-card page if you only want the highlights. A full Pokémon GO TCG set is a separate collection and needs at least nine nine-pocket pages for the 78 numbered cards.

How should you order it?

A timeline works well when the binder is about memories: first partner, early favorites, major catches, then recent teams. For a collection you will update often, use sections instead. New catches can join the right page without shifting everything else.

Leave room for the game to change

Keep the final page open for new buddies, events, or teams. Put cards tied to one limited event together, so the section still makes sense after the event ends.

Add a missing card to the wishlist once you know its pocket. Screenshots can help you decide what belongs before you start looking for cards.
