Is there a trick to navigating Pokémon Center’s website?

Sometimes I do enjoy browsing products, but most of the time I go there to buy items. However, I have not been able to find a filter system to eliminate “out of stock” items which seems to be the majority of products as of late (just like anywhere else). It just gets annoying having to click on each product only to find “out of stock” underneath it.

Is there a trick to being able to view only items that are in stock, or getting a heads up on WHEN things might be stocked? I have two different e-mails registered with them and I almost never get any notifications.

Thanks ahead of time.

@cuboneismetal,

Funny I have been watching this to see if anyone responds. I didn’t expect to see an answer, at least not with anything useful. Unfortunately if people have an edge over you in getting their hands on product they are not going to divulge their secrets. So much for a friendly hobby right!?!? Usually things sell out in a matter of minutes when they are desirable. The recent Vivid Voltage Build and Battle boxes are a great example. Unfortunately I think you need to learn how to program a bot. Look up selenium with python. There are others that are faster too.

Haha, yea, I kind of figured it would be one of those things that if there is a trick, people probably won’t want to share the love. Not going to take it personally, that’s just the way it is.

I appreciate the info on the bots. I doubt I would ever go down that road, but at least now I know it is an option.

Just wanted to add I hate the site with a passion. How hard is it to hide out of stock items?
