Which Pokémon card API has Korean cards?
This one has 16,778 Korean cards across 234 sets, about twice the next-largest public source. The paid Pokémon APIs we've checked cover English and Japanese, and one adds Chinese; none has Korean.
Is there a Pokémon API for Thai or Indonesian cards?
Yes: 11,853 Thai cards (95 sets) and 11,937 Indonesian cards (94 sets), with names in Thai and Indonesian. Non-English data is on the Indie plan and up.
Does it cover Japanese and Chinese?
22,164 Japanese cards, 13,127 Traditional Chinese and 6,946 Simplified Chinese.
What's a "printing"?
One card in one language, finish and set: 1st Edition vs Unlimited, holo vs reverse holo, stamped promos. We model 276,657 of them, because that's what a scanner resolves and a collector actually owns.
Is it free?
250 requests a month of English cards free, for personal, non-commercial use (terms). Business use, other languages, printings and images are on paid plans.
Can I use it in a business?
Yes, on any paid plan. The free tier is personal, non-commercial use only; see the API terms.
Does it include card images?
Yes, on the Studio plan: image URLs for 98% of cards and their printings.
Does it include prices?
Not yet. Price data is coming as a paid add-on.
