pokemon tcg mcp

The Pokémon TCG via TCGdex, open database, no key.

Tools

• search_cards, search by name, filter by rarity
• get_card, full card: HP, types, abilities, attacks, weakness, market prices
• list_sets, all sets, newest first
• get_set, a set with its full card list

Run

npm install && npm run build && node dist/index.js

Example

"Show me Charizard's Vivid Voltage card" search_cards("charizard") → get_card("swsh4-25")

Quick start

npm install
npm run build
node dist/index.js

The server uses stdio, so it can be connected to Claude Desktop, Cursor, VS Code, MCP Inspector, or another compatible MCP client.

Tools at a glance

• search_cards: Search Pokémon TCG cards by name, optionally filtered by rarity.

• get_set: Get a Pokémon TCG set and its card list.

Limits and privacy

This project is intentionally narrow. It should be treated as a practical helper, not a complete certification or security audit. Check the implementation and the returned data before using it with sensitive material. No credentials are required unless the project explicitly says otherwise.

Try it

After building, connect the server through your MCP client. The repository root also contains smoke-test.mjs for projects covered by the shared harness. A typical tool call starts with search_cards.

Premium tools

These tools need a licence key:

• cards_by_rarity

The tool bodies run on our gateway, not inside this package, so the key is what buys access. Buy one at https://buy.polar.sh/polar_cl_mrO7rS5LZxpqM7oAFFEA10i9121J240U40IIj4JRZO4 and set it in your MCP client config:

"env": { "MCP_LICENSE_KEY": "polar_..." }

The gateway checks the key against Polar and gives every key 1,000 free premium calls a month before per-call billing starts. Every other tool on this server stays free.
