カード当て
Card Clue
One card a day. Six guesses. Six readings.
Only a site that holds every Japanese print with its illustrator and its era can ask this question.
Today’s board
Nobody has read today’s card yet. Six guesses puts you top of the board.
ゲームセンターThe Arcade
Nine games you can only play here.
Not because they are locked. Because every one of them runs on Japanese Pokémon data that nobody else has bothered to publish in English: City League results, eight thousand cards of translated text, and a market in dollars.
Today only
One attempt, one board, and a new one at midnight in Tokyo.
Play
グリッド
The Grid
Nine squares. Each wants a Pokémon answering two questions at once.
Nobody else holds the illustrator, the regulation mark and the retreat cost of every Japanese print to cross them against each other.
Today’s board
Nobody has filled a cell today. One Pokémon in one square puts you top of the board.
Play until you lose
Run as long as you can hold it together. Again as soon as you want.

You do not need an account
Every game is playable in one tap and your scores follow this browser. Sign in and they get claimed onto your handle, so the board shows a name that links to your binder instead of whatever you typed. Nothing is required and nothing is lost.
The scores are real
Your browser never sends a score. It sends the answers it gave, and the server replays them against the questions it issued and does the arithmetic itself. That is more work than trusting a number, and it is the only reason a leaderboard is worth reading.
