As of July 2025: Where Can You Buy Pokémon Cards Near Tumon?
If you’re searching “Pokémon Card Tumon where to buy”, you probably just want a quick, clear answer.
Honestly, when you drive around Tumon and everything’s sold out, it really feels like you just wasted your time, doesn’t it?
So in this article, I’ll introduce shops in Tumon that (at least sometimes) carry Pokémon cards.
In mid-July 2025 (we visited around 10 a.m.), we checked three stores near Tumon and asked staff about both current stock and restock timing.
We focused on these two points:
- What was actually in stock at the time
- What staff told us about restocks (shipments)
…all summarized from a Guam resident’s point of view.
The 3 Stores We Checked
Based on local posts and word of mouth, we narrowed it down to these three stores:
- LATTE STORE
- Geek Out
- Olympia Market
In this article, “in stock / out of stock” is based on one simple criterion: can you buy regular booster packs on the spot.
At each store, we first checked the display area (often near the register). If we didn’t see anything, we asked staff directly whether there was any stock in the back.
Even if items aren’t on the shelf, it could simply mean they haven’t restocked the display yet. So we didn’t judge by appearance alone—we always asked staff.
Which store had stock that morning?
This might feel a little confusing, but the meaning of “in stock” is different depending on the store, so I’ll lay it out clearly here.
The current reality: Pokémon cards are in high demand
At every store, we heard the same thing: stock is limited, and even when it arrives, it sells fast.
Because restocks disappear quickly, if you’re searching for Pokémon cards in Tumon, it’s best to assume it’s basically a timing game.
Check their official Instagram/Facebook posts—and if you’re going, ideally go that same day.
That said, things change depending on delivery timing, so your experience may differ.
Below, for each store, I’ve summarized:
- What we actually saw on the shelves
- The prices we could confirm
- What staff said about restock timing
…in one place.
This isn’t a touristy “photo spot” guide—it’s practical info to help you avoid wasted trips, written from a Guam resident’s perspective.
Stock Check ① LATTE STORE
Hey—so where can you buy Pokémon cards near Tumon?
Among locals, the first name that usually comes up is LATTE STORE.
Based on what I’d seen on Instagram, they seemed to carry a lot of products—so I was hoping one stop here might be enough.
But when we visited around 10 a.m. in mid-July 2025, it felt like most of the good stuff had already been picked over.
Pokémon cards really are that popular.
The shelves that usually look “fully stocked” were mostly empty, and it felt like only a tiny amount of product was left.
Location
We couldn’t confirm the standard booster packs, and staff said the more “easy-to-grab” regular set products were already sold out. On the other hand, there were a few higher-priced set items left near the register—such as special decks.
Products We Could Confirm During Our Visit (As of July 2025)
Japanese Booster Packs(Direct Translations):
- Black Volt （ブラックボルト）– $4.99
- White Flare（ホワイトフレア） – $4.99
- Heat Arena （熱風のアリーナ）– $4.99
English Booster Packs:
- Obsidian Flame – $6.99
- Twilight Masquerade – $6.99
Special Decks / Set Products:
- Special Deck Set – $44.99
- Sakaki & Mewtwo Trading Set – $249.99
Where are the cards located?
The products were grouped together near the front of the register area.
If the store is busy, it’s easy to miss—so once you walk in, checking around the register first is a good move.
Staff comment (during our visit):
When we asked about the next shipment, they said it might be around the end of July, but it sounded like the exact day and time still weren’t decided.
Since it’s a popular item, they wouldn’t share specific dates or times. Anti-hoarding measures, maybe? (lol)
They also told us that cards often sell out quickly after restocks, so they recommended: “Keep an eye on our SNS posts!”
If you’re aiming to buy Pokémon cards at LATTE STORE, staff said many people check the Instagram restock post and come in the same day. However, the restock contents and purchase limits aren’t always the same, so it’s worth remembering that this is not a guaranteed method.
Stock Check ② Geek Out
For card fans around Tumon, Geek Out tends to be that “start here” kind of classic shop, right?
Exactly—so I figured they’d have something, at least.
But when we went around 10 a.m. in mid-July 2025, I couldn’t find Pokémon cards anywhere on the shelf, and I honestly felt a bit confused.
Since we didn’t see any Pokémon cards on display, we double-checked with staff just in case—but they said there was no stock.
Location
There were no Pokémon cards on the shelf, and when we asked staff, they said there was no stock at that time (none on the floor, none in the back).
Restock Notes (Based on Staff Comments)
Here’s what we got after asking staff:
Hearing that, I kind of froze for a second.
Geek Out is usually a dependable shop, so… yeah.
When your “this place should have it” store comes up empty, it hits harder than you’d expect.
In-Store Promo: Card Lottery (Raffle-Style) Event
Regular Pokémon cards were sold out, but Geek Out was running a raffle-style event with a small entry fee.
The prizes included Pokémon items, plus items from other TCG series as well.
Prize Examples (During Our Visit)
“BLOOMING Water Premium Box” featuring Venusaur & Blastoise artwork
Rare cards like Charizard, plus prizes from other TCG titles.
Some prizes were from TCGs other than Pokémon as well.
For the latest details, ask staff at the register.
Entry fees and prize contents can change, so confirming in-store is the safest.
If Pokémon cards are your main goal, this shop might be a miss depending on the day (it’s popular, after all). Still, their Facebook updates make it worth checking occasionally for restocks and events. If you’re stopping by anyway, the raffle event can be a fun bonus—just remember it’s not guaranteed Pokémon cards.
Stock Check ③ Olympia Market
Isn’t it kind of surprising that Olympia Market has Pokémon cards?
To be honest, when I first heard about it, I didn’t expect much—it’s a supermarket, after all.
It’s smaller than the other two, and I couldn’t find an official Instagram account or anything, so there wasn’t much info beforehand. I was basically thinking, “Do they really have them?”
But surprisingly, when we went around 10 a.m. in mid-July 2025, this was the only store (at the time of our visit) where we could confirm booster packs actually on display among the three.
The quantity was small, but they were placed in a clearly visible spot right next to the register.
Location
The selection was limited, but we could confirm booster packs on display.
That said, the lineup was simple—here’s what they had:
| Type | Details |
|---|---|
| Booster packs | English “Journey Together” – $8.99 |
| Single cards | Sold one-by-one at the register. The selection changes frequently, so it’s totally normal for something to be there one day and gone the next. |
Restock Notes (Based on Staff Comments)
When we asked staff, this is what we were told:
If you’re aiming for a specific series, it’s probably hard to rely on this store as your main option.
But if you’re nearby and you just want anything Pokémon-related, it’s worth a quick look.
Olympia Market is best for a “check it while you’re nearby” stop. Packs and singles are all around the register, so you can confirm stock in seconds. The selection is limited, so if you focus on convenience over variety, it’s a lot less stressful.

Tips to Actually Get Pokémon Cards in Tumon
Honestly, searching for Pokémon cards around Tumon in July 2025 felt like it came down to timing.
You can hit multiple stores and still walk away with nothing.
And that kind of miss is quietly stressful, right?
So instead of a “perfect strategy,” here are some realistic tips based on what we experienced.
| Tip | Details |
|---|---|
| Check official social media | It’s basic, but it works. Latte Store and Geek Out sometimes post restock updates on Instagram/Facebook, which makes it easier to judge whether it’s worth going today. |
| Assume “same-day” action | Staff told us that restocks often sell out fast. If you see a post and wait until tomorrow, it may already be gone. |
| Ask staff (but don’t expect exact dates) | Asking about the next restock can help, but it’s hard to get a specific date. Answers are often vague—like “maybe late this month” or “probably next month.” It’s best to treat it as a hint for your next try, not a promise. |
| Know each store’s “role” | Latte Store can be great for variety when they restock. Geek Out is strong on updates and events. Olympia Market is best for a quick register check nearby. |
| Have a backup plan | If packs are gone, checking Olympia’s single cards or Geek Out’s in-store events can be a decent alternative. It depends on your goal, but sometimes it’s better than going home with nothing at all. |
At the end of the day, there’s no guaranteed method…
There are only ways to slightly improve your odds.
If you check social media and think of it as “I’ll stop by when the timing works, and if I get something, great,” it’s a lot less stressful—and easier to keep trying.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Here are 10 quick Q&As based on what we saw around Tumon in mid-July 2025.
Stock changes fast, so please treat these as practical references—not guarantees.
Q1. What’s the quickest answer—where should I try first near Tumon?
A. If you want the fastest “check and decide” stop, Olympia Market is simple because packs/singles are right by the register. If you’re aiming for more variety, Latte Stone Store can be worth trying—just keep expectations realistic because stock can be thin.
Q2. What does “sold out” mean in this article?
A. We first checked the display area (usually near the register). If we didn’t see cards, we asked staff if anything was left in the back. So “sold out” here means not on display + staff said no stock at that time.
Q3. What time is best to check for Pokémon cards in Tumon?
A. There’s no perfect time, but if you can, checking earlier in the day might help. Our visit was around 10 a.m. in mid-July 2025. If a store posts a restock update, going the same day usually makes more sense than waiting until tomorrow.
Q4. Are there purchase limits in Tumon stores?
A. Sometimes, yes. Staff mentioned limits can change depending on the shipment and demand. If you’re buying for a group or trying to grab multiple packs, it’s safer to ask at the register first.
Q5. Can I find Japanese and English Pokémon cards near Tumon?
A. Yes, but it’s inconsistent. During our visit, Latte Stone Store had both Japanese and English packs (limited). Olympia Market had English packs only. It can flip depending on what arrives, so if language matters, checking in person is the safest.
Q6. Do any stores take reservations or pre-orders?
A. Based on what staff told us, no—it’s first-come, first-served after restocks. That’s why people keep watching Instagram/Facebook updates.
Q7. Can tourists buy Pokémon cards in Tumon?
A. Yes—anyone can buy them. There’s no residency requirement. The real issue is simply whether the store has stock that day.
Q8. Is Amazon a good backup option for Guam?
A. It can be, especially when local stores are empty. Just keep in mind shipping fees and delivery times to Guam. Also, prices and stock change quickly—so treat it as a “check and compare” option rather than a sure thing.
Q9. If I want a specific card, what should I do?
A. For a specific card, checking single cards (like at Olympia’s register) is sometimes more practical than chasing packs. You can also politely ask staff if they’ve seen that card recently—but availability changes a lot, so it may take a few tries.
Q10. What’s a simple game plan if I don’t want to overthink it?
A. Quick plan: (1) Check Latte Stone / Geek Out social posts, (2) If you’re nearby, pop into Olympia for a fast register check, (3) If it’s empty, don’t force it—try again after the next restock update. Pokémon cards in Tumon can be a “timing wins” thing.
Conclusion: The Best Mindset for Finding Pokémon Cards in Tumon (July 2025)
So after visiting multiple stores around Tumon in mid-July 2025—what can we realistically say?
Honestly, there’s no single store where you can say, “I can buy them here every time.”
Stock changes quickly, demand is high, and even well-known shops can be completely empty on the same day.
When you’re walking around store to store, it’s easy to forget that—so I had to keep reminding myself.
Based on this visit, each store played a different role:
- Latte Store: Potentially wide variety when they restock—but timing is everything.
- Geek Out: Even if the shelves are empty, they’re strong on updates and events.
- Olympia Market: Great for a quick register check (but limited variety).
It’s totally normal to wonder, “Should I go today, or should I wait?”
If you’re nearby, stopping by can make sense.
Waiting until the next restock post can also make sense.
Both are reasonable.
The key is not overthinking it.
In Tumon, finding Pokémon cards often depends less on “effort” and more on timing.
If the timing works, you’ll get them. If not, it’s fine—try again next time.
This article is based on what we saw during a single visit, so it’s not a permanent rule.
If you notice a new restock, price change, or anything different, sharing that info can really help collectors and parents in Guam.
I hope this guide helps you decide “where to try next” or even “whether it’s worth going at all.”
Don’t push yourself—enjoy it at your own pace.
