Improved Search: Include All Card Text in Results

Site Feedback

I’ve tried several PTCGP card databases and none of them seem to do what I’m looking for, which is to allow the user to search/filter cards for words and phrases within all cards’ text.

As it is now, our search function on the collection page only shows results from within card titles. For example, searching for the word “poisoned” shows no card matches, which is a bummer when I’m trying to plan a poison-centric deck. But it would be awesome if the feature searched all text (title, move names, and move effects) to give me a list of cards that met my prompt.

Could we do this?

Hello !
I think it is a good idea, but not as a default mechanism.
In the game, I often struggle to find a pokemon because it’s name starts the same than an attack, and I see all the pokemon using this attack.
It would be nice to have it as an option though, maybe a box to check ?

I agree, not a default for the search function but a toggle/checkbox next to the field to enable a full card text search.
