GARBAGE RIPS 585 Pokemon pack rips from Rochester, NY Subscribe
585 • Something to do in line

Games for the wait

Built for the twenty minutes you spend waiting to get to the counter. One thumb, no sign up, nothing to install, and nothing lost if the line moves and you have to stop.

The Garbage Run title screen: GARBAGE RUN in blocky 8-bit capitals, Trubbish sitting on a Garbage Plate, and ROCHESTER, NY over GARBAGE RIPS 585 with PRESS START underneath Arcade

Garbage Run

One thumb, no rules to read. Flip Trubbish between the floor and the ceiling and eat everything on the street. A hundred pieces of trash and he evolves.

 A Chase Match board mid-round: a four by four grid where twelve cards are face down showing the drawn back, a green field with a circular Garbage Plate emblem and 585 beneath it, and four are turned up as two matched pairs of real Pokemon card scans, over a line giving the rank, name, set and raw price of the last card found Memory

Chase Match

Cards face down, tap two, keep the pairs. The deck is the 100 most valuable ungraded cards in Pokemon, so every match is a card you will probably never hold.

 Who's That Pokemon mid-round: a Pokemon blacked out to a silhouette, with four names to choose from underneath Silhouettes

Who's That Pokemon?

Name the shape. All 1,025 of them, or just the original 151.

 Guess the Set mid-round: a full scan of a real Pokemon card, with four set names to choose from underneath Card scans

Guess the Set

A real card, four sets, one right answer. 130 sets in the pot.

 Pokemon Trivia mid-round: artwork of the Pokemon being asked about, the question in large type underneath, and four answers to choose from below that Quiz

Pokemon Trivia

1,400 questions, all generated from real Pokedex and card data.

 Rochester, NY

The Garbage Plate

Not a game. This is the thing the channel is named after: a Rochester, NY dish with a federal trademark, a founder its own sources disagree about, and eleven places to eat one. Every claim on that page carries the source it came from and the day it was read.

The two official apps

Ours are for the twenty minutes in line. These two are the real card game, both free, both from Pokemon, and both tied to the packs on this channel. The code card in every booster goes into one of them.

The Pokemon TCG Live app icon Official

Pokemon TCG Live

The full card game, same rules as the cards in your hand. It is where the code card from a booster pack gets redeemed, and what that code actually gives you is not what most people assume.

 The Pokemon TCG Pocket app icon Official

Pokemon TCG Pocket

The casual one, and the easier place to learn: shorter matches on a deliberately simplified ruleset, so what it teaches you carries over only so far. Your pack codes do not work here.

The five pictures above are screenshots of these games running in a browser at phone width, taken from these pages, not mock ups. What is on each screen is whatever came up. The two app icons are from each app's own App Store listing. Your best scores are saved on this device only. There is no account and no leaderboard, because the site is a set of static files with nowhere to store one. Pokedex data from pokeapi.co, read August 13, 2026. Card scans from TCGdex.
