About TCG Pulse
Daily card price movers and release calendar for Pokémon, One Piece, Magic & Yu-Gi-Oh!
What this is
TCG Pulse is a free, independent site that puts daily card prices and upcoming set releases for four trading card games on fast, simple pages. The site and its code were built with help from AI tools. All prices and dates come from the sources below, never from AI.
Where the data comes from
- Prices (all four games): TCGplayer market prices in USD, read from the daily public mirror at TCGCSV. We track each game's most recent sets.
- Price movers: we save a price snapshot every day and compare each card's market price with the previous snapshot. Cards under $3 are excluded.
- Release dates: TCGplayer set dates (all games), plus Scryfall for Magic and YGOPRODeck for Yu-Gi-Oh!.
- Card images: TCGplayer product images, plus DotGG scans for One Piece where TCGplayer only has a SAMPLE preview. When TCGplayer has no photo of a new Yu-Gi-Oh! printing yet, we show that card's standard artwork from YGOPRODeck, labelled "Standard art", until TCGplayer adds one. Cards with no image at all show a card-back placeholder.

FAQ
How often are prices updated?

The TCGplayer market price in US dollars, which TCGplayer calculates from recent completed sales. Where TCGplayer lists one, card pages also show the lowest current listing.
