Official Websites
Information Resources
- Collector Viper
The best resource on card information, news, history, and high-quality scans. Second only to the official Japanese site.
- All About Pokémon Figure
My absolute favorite source for news and the latest information on merchandise releases. No longer updated, but a great resource nonetheless.
- The PokéPlush Project
A great resource, with its goal of being documenting each and every Pokémon plush ever made. (Within reason. I'm looking at you, Pikachu.)
- Jim Breen's WWWJDIC
My all-time favorite online Japanese dictionary. Not only can you look up words, in Romanji and Kana/Kanji, but you can translate sentences comprehensively, and look up Kanji using an amazing multiradical method. An amazing educational tool.
Merchandise Resources and Stores
- Yahoo Japan Auctions
Where I buy most of my merchandise, using a deputy service.
Note that this site is Japanese-only, but you can always use an online translator for the auctions.
- eBay
Another indispensible auction site I use. However, be vigilant about spotting bootlegs.
- Sunyshore Pokémart
One of my all-time favorite stores, run by a good friend of mine! I've bought a good few rare collectibles from her, and her prices are always fair. Always top-notch merchandise, too, many of which you won't find anywhere else, sometimes even on Yahoo Japan.
Collection Websites
- Mystic Firefly
My Sailor Saturn collection website.
- Glacidea no Hana
My Shaymin (Land Forme) collection site.

From the same Gin who brought you Sunyshore Pokémart! Come see the world's largest Raichu collection, and tons of other awesome Electrics, including Raikou!
