Build a Pokémon binder page with Composer

Composer helps you discover cards that belong together. It uses measured artwork colors and curated theme membership from reviewed layouts. Drafts stay separate from your saved binder until you choose Place this page.

1. Choose a starting point

   Open a freeform Pokémon binder, then Tools → Design → Composer. You can also open a card and choose Build a page around this. Search by card, artist or number and tap an anchor. Start with this page pins your existing cards in their current pockets.

2. Set your direction

   Choose a language, a theme or artwork colors, an arrangement, light and variety. Favor owned cards or use only owned cards. Pinned cards keep their exact printing and language. Theme tags currently cover a curated subset; other results follow measured artwork colors.

3. Compose and compare

   Choose Compose three pages. Kindred colors follows the colors of every pinned artwork; A little contrast explores a different balance; Unexpected company takes wider turns. Tap Pin below a card to keep that exact card in that pocket across all three proposals and add its colors to the shared palette. Tap Recompose around pins to apply the new palette to the free pockets. Recent suggestions are remembered during this open session, and variety stays within relevant color matches. Your selected direction stays selected.

4. Change just one pocket

   Tap an unpinned card, then Try another card, or choose a specific alternative below the preview. To change a pinned card, tap Pinned first to unpin it. An intentional duplicate brought in from your existing page can be unpinned and replaced. Keep this version stores up to six comparisons during this session; restoring one does not place it in your binder.

5. Check the remaining budget

   An optional USD budget uses the upper end of available exact-printing estimates for cards you still need. Unknown wanted prices are excluded. Quotes are checked for a bounded candidate group; a constrained search can leave empty pockets. These are estimates, not live checkout offers.

6. Set the scene

   Choose a painted page scene, blended blurry edges or Silver. The frame preview uses the same rendering path as the editor and export. Your original card scans and printed rims stay untouched.

7. Place the page

   Choose the next fully empty page, or fill the current page while keeping its existing cards in place. No pages are added automatically. New copies start wanted; existing ownership is preserved. An available owned card elsewhere is not moved or counted as a second physical copy. Use Undo to restore the previous binder.
