Here's something most collectors don't realize: the biggest Pokémon TCG restocks happen at random times with zero announcement. No tweets, no emails, no heads up.

By the time you see someone post about it on Reddit or Twitter, the stock is gone. Every. Single. Time.

I've been tracking restock patterns and here's what I've noticed:

1. Restocks follow invisible patterns. Most major retailers restock the same SKUs at similar intervals. If you know the rhythm, you can predict the next window.

2. In-store restocks are completely overlooked. Everyone's watching Target.com and Pokémon Center, but local stores restock without anyone noticing. Those are the easiest cops.

3. The 30-second rule is real. High-demand sets sell out in under a minute. If you're not in the first wave, you're too late.

I built PokeRadar to solve exactly this — instant alerts the second cards hit shelves, online and in-store. No delays, no middlemen.
