How do I install the Pokemon TCG Pocket Catalog MCP server?

Pokemon TCG Pocket Catalog is a hosted endpoint at https://pocket.hologallery.app/mcp, so there is nothing to install locally. Ready-made configuration for Claude, Cursor, VS Code, Codex and 5 more is on this page, copied from each client's own documentation.

MCP tools · 11 exposed · ~1,308 tokens

The tools this component advertises to a client, with an estimated token cost for each. Expand a tool to see its parameters and schema. The per-tool counts are indicative and are not scored directly; the schema's total context footprint is one signal in Schema Quality & AI Usability. A tool's description is untrusted text the model reads on every call, which is what makes this list a security surface and not just an inventory: how tool poisoning works →

Tool Tokens
catalog_info ~50

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.

Input schema present but exposes no named parameters.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

evaluate_deck ~111

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.

NameTypeReqDescription
cardsarrayyesThe deck list, one entry per distinct card.
localestring–Locale for card names in messages.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

get_card ~123

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'.

NameTypeReqDescription
idstringyesPrinting id ('A1-001') or gameplay card id ('PK_000010').
localestring–Locale for names and text. Defaults to 'en'.

No output schema declared.

Input schema present but exposes no named parameters.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

list_packs ~55

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.

NameTypeReqDescription
localestring–Locale for pack names. Defaults to 'en'.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

list_printings ~125

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.

NameTypeReqDescription
idstringyesPrinting id ('A1-001') or gameplay card id ('PK_000010').
localestring–Locale for names. Defaults to 'en'.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

list_sets ~48

List every Pokémon TCG Pocket set with its id and localized name. Use the ids to filter search_cards by set.

NameTypeReqDescription
localestring–Locale for set names. Defaults to 'en'.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

search_cards ~298

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.

NameTypeReqDescription
energystring–Energy type of the Pokémon.
hpMaxinteger–Maximum HP (Pokémon only).

trainerTypestring–Trainer subtype: item, supporter, tool, fossil, or stadium.
weaknessstring–Weakness energy type of the Pokémon.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

simulate_matchup ~151

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.

NameTypeReqDescription
deckAobjectyesFirst deck to compare.
deckBobjectyesSecond deck to compare.
gamesinteger–Number of simulated games. Defaults to 20; maximum 50.
localestring–Locale for card names in the sample log. Defaults to 'en'.
seedinteger–Base random seed. Reusing the same inputs and seed reproduces the result.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

suggest_deck ~131

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.

NameTypeReqDescription
cardIdstring–Gameplay card id, e.g. 'PK_000960'.
localestring–Locale for card names. Defaults to 'en'.
querystring–Card name to build around, e.g. 'Charizard ex'.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

trial_deck ~177

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.

NameTypeReqDescription
deckobjectyesThe deck to trial.
gamesinteger–Mirror self-play games. Defaults to 10; maximum 50.
handsinteger–Opening hands to sample. Defaults to 50; maximum 200.
localestring–Locale for card names. Defaults to 'en'.
seedinteger–Base random seed. Reusing the same inputs and seed reproduces the result.
