How to organize a Pokémon binder

By set

The classic: one set per binder, in card-number order, so you can see exactly what's missing. Best for chasing a full set.

By Pokédex number

Every Pokémon in National Pokédex order, one card each. Bulbasaur first, and a page for every generation.

By type or color

Group Fire with Fire and Water with Water, and the pages turn into blocks of color. The rainbow binder is the prettiest version.

By artist

One illustrator per binder or per page. It shows off a style in a way a set never does.

By favorite Pokémon

One Pokémon through the years. Charizard, Pikachu and the Eeveelutions are the favorites, and they grow with every new set.

Popular themes include the Eeveelutions (nine fit one page exactly), Charizard or Pikachu through the years, starters, legendaries, gold cards, full art trainers, illustration rares and spooky ghost Pokémon.
