Does TAG grade Pokemon / Yu-Gi-Oh!/ Magic: The Gathering / TCG cards?
Updated over 3 months ago

TAG's TCG program launched in November 2023 with support for "Poker" sized trading card games - these cards measure 2.5 x 3.5 and include Wizards of the Coast's Magic: the Gathering and Pokemon, as well as One Piece, Disney Lorcana, Star Wars Unlimited, and other similarly-sized releases.
​
Only English-language cards are accepted, with the exception of Japanese Pokemon, One Piece and select Dragon Ball Z issues which meet TAG's sizing requirements above.
​
TAG will not be accepting miscuts/misprints at this time, and is only accepting cards printed on standard cardstock - no metal material cards.

"Bridge"-sized trading card games such as Yu-Gi-Oh! and several Bandai Carddass releases, including many Dragon Ball releases and Carddass Vending Pokemon Prism Stickers, measure 2.25 x 3.5 and are not yet eligible for grading with TAG due to slab restrictions, but are a priority for TAG in the future.
​

Among popular Pokemon releases, the following cannot be graded by TAG at this time:
- Topsun Pokemon
- Carddass Vending Pokemon Prism Stickers

- Pokemon TCG in languages outside of English and Japanese
- Pokemon TCG which have been autographed by artists or voice actors
- Wizards of the Coast Pokemon Metal material cards, e.g. 2021 Pokemon Celebrations Ultra-Premium Collection
- "Jumbo" Oversized Pokemon TCG cards
- 1999 Burger King Pokemon Gold Cards

- 2000 Topps Pokemon TV Animation Clear Cards
- Funskool brand Pokemon cards

- Lamincard Pokemon releases
- 2023 Pokemon Popping Candy 24K Gold Plating stickers

All expansions of TAG's services will be announced through our social media channels @TAGgrading, our community Discord and Facebook groups, and through the TAG Grading newsletter.
