Since the early 2000s, large Pokemon cards have played a big part as promotional cards to commemorate the release of some Pokemon TCG merchandise or an exclusive event.

Jumbo Pokemon cards are about as large as four and a half regular Pokemon cards, so you’ll need to look for card accessories that are customized to accommodate their size.

One of the easiest card storage products that you can find online are jumbo card frames.

These look like the normal card frames that can be mounted on walls, but they are specifically designed for oversized cards.

Card frames are your best choice if you have multiple large Pokemon cards to display, as you can mount them in certain patterns to make them look more aesthetically pleasing.

Card stands

Another way of displaying your large Pokemon cards apart from the walls is through your desks, shelves, and tables.

If you’re looking to try this option, you can buy some custom-made card stands.

Finding bigger card stands might be challenging if you do it online, but you can actually consider card stands made for other types of cards.

Alternatively, you can also buy jumbo acrylic card displays with built-in stands that we found on Etsy.

Card sleeves or toploaders

If you want to display your oversized Pokemon cards without spending money on expensive frames or stands, you can simply have your large cards lean on a book or a bigger object inside your shelves or on your desk.

However, showing your collections this way can make your oversized cards susceptible to wear and tear, so you better invest on affordable sleeves or top-loaders to keep their condition as pristine as possible.

When looking for some large Pokemon card sleeves and toploaders, the best size that you should find is six by nine (6×9).
