Which sleeve fits?

Pokémon, MTG and Riftbound all use standard-size cards, so the same sleeves work across all three.

SleeveSizeUse it for

Perfect fit / innerAbout 64 × 89 mm, snugThe inner sleeve when double sleeving.

Sleeving a Pokémon deck

How many do I need?

A Pokémon deck is 60 cards. Most packs of deck sleeves hold 60 to 100, so one pack covers a deck with spares.

Penny sleeves aren’t for playing

They’re thin and loose by design: a dust jacket for a card going into a toploader or a binder. Shuffle with them and they split. For a deck, use proper deck sleeves.

Double sleeving, the quick version

Slide the card into a perfect-fit inner sleeve upside down, then into a deck sleeve the right way up. The two openings face opposite ends, so nothing gets in.

Questions

Good to know

What size sleeves fit Pokémon, MTG and Riftbound?

All three use standard-size cards (63 × 88 mm), so standard sleeves fit every one of them. Yu-Gi-Oh! and other Japanese-size cards need small sleeves, which are too tight for standard cards.

Should I double sleeve my deck?

If the deck holds cards you care about, yes. Put each card in a perfect-fit inner sleeve upside down, then into a standard deck sleeve. Dust and spills stay out and the deck shuffles the same.

Matte or gloss sleeves?

Matte sleeves shuffle smoother and cut glare under lights, which is why most players use them. Gloss shows the art brighter but tends to clump while it’s new.

Penny sleeve and toploader, or a toploader binder?

For a single card you’re posting or putting away, it’s a penny sleeve first, then a toploader. For a set of good cards you want to look at, a toploader binder holds them rigid without a pile of toploaders in a box.
