Keeping Cards Safe

Jumbo sleeves and toploaders exist! A common combination we have seen is BWC 6×9 Photograph Sleeves with Ultra Pro 6×9 Toploaders (via /u/Quuador on Reddit).

This may feel a bit overkill, but will help keep cards safe if you’re particularly concerned about them getting damaged in transit. The jumbo cards have changes sizes over the years; some cards may be loose in these toploaders, but these will hold cards regardless of the size.

The toploaders should fit into Japanese B5-sized cases. The game can be played on standard mats.

A reasonable alternative could be the Pokemon TCG: First Partner Collector’s Binder, which holds the cards unsleeved.
