Auto-organize your Pokémon binder in one click
Sort owned cards, wanted cards, or a full set into a 9-pocket binder by name, set number, type, rarity, market value, artist, or release date. Group by type or rarity so each section starts on a fresh page. Leave gaps where Michi art inserts will go. Free — no account needed to plan.
A Pokemon binder organizer automatically lays cards into binder pockets based on a source and sort rule. PocketRune can organize owned cards, chase cards, folders, full sets, or the current binder by set number, type, rarity, value, artist, release date, and more.
- Auto-organize rearranges binder layout only; it does not mutate Collection ownership.
- Folder and set sources can leave blank slots for cards you do not own yet.
- Existing Michi image inserts stay in place while cards flow around them.
Value sorting uses available TCGplayer market data from the card metadata feed. Binder and Collection data remain private.
Pick a sort. Get a binder.
Manual binder building is fun once. Doing it a third time, on a set you have rearranged twice already, is not. The PocketRune organizer takes your owned collection, a want list, a full set, or whatever is in the binder right now and lays it into pockets the way you ask — in a single pass.
Choose a preset (Master Set order, By Type, By Rarity, Alphabetical, By Value, By Artist) or build your own combination: sort key, group key, page-break behavior, gaps between groups for Michi inserts, gaps left in slots for cards you do not own yet.
Every common way collectors organize a binder
Set number (the “master set” order most TCG players default to). Card name (A→Z for fast lookup). Card type (Grass, Fire, Water, … through Trainer and Energy — laid out like the official type wheel). Rarity (chase cards first, commons last — or reverse if you like opening to the holos). Market value high → low so the binder reads like a portfolio. HP, artist, release date, and supertype for theme binders.
You can group as well as sort — “By Type” groups every Fire card together and starts the next type on a fresh page; “By Rarity” keeps each tier on its own spread; “By Artist” turns the binder into a gallery for a single illustrator.
Designed around the Michi art-insert method
PocketRune started as a Michi-method planner: art tiles in the gaps between cards so a 9-pocket page reads as one composed image. The organizer respects that. Image inserts already in your binder are preserved — cards flow around them. Set a gap of N empty slots after each group so a Michi panel can slot in cleanly. Or leave gaps for missing cards in a set so the holes line up with the printed checklist.
Free, local-first, undoable
The organizer runs in your browser. No subscription gates, no per-binder fees, no quota. If you do not like the layout, hit undo — the previous arrangement is one click away. Sign in and your binders sync across devices; signed out, everything stays local. You own the data; PocketRune just lays it out.

FAQ
- How should I organize a Pokémon binder?
- There is no one right answer — the four most common methods are: by set (master-set order, matches the printed checklist), by type (Fire, Water, Grass… aligned with the type wheel), by rarity (chase cards first, commons last), and by value (most valuable up front). PocketRune supports all four as one-click presets, plus alphabetical, by artist, by release date, by HP, and custom combinations.
- Can I sort by market value?
- Yes. The “By Value” preset pulls live market prices from TCGplayer and lays your binder out highest value to lowest — so the most expensive cards land on the front spreads. Pricing is free for every account.
- Will it leave gaps for Michi art inserts?
- Yes. Set a per-group Michi gap (0–16 empty slots between groups), or force a page break between groups so each section starts on a fresh spread. Image inserts already placed in the binder are preserved — cards flow around them.
- Can I leave gaps for cards I do not own yet?
- Yes — turn on “leave gaps for missing cards” when organizing from a full set or set+collection source. Slots stay empty exactly where the missing card belongs, so the binder reads like a checklist you can fill in.
- Does it modify my collection?
- No. Auto-organize only rearranges the binder layout. Your owned-card list, quantities, conditions, and notes are untouched. Undo is a single click.
- How much does this cost?
- Free. PocketRune is free to use — funded by optional affiliate links when you buy singles or sleeves, not by a subscription.
- Does it work on mobile?
- Yes. The organizer is in the editor toolbar on desktop and in the ⋮ menu on mobile.
