EX TCG Series merchandise: Difference between revisions

Latest revision as of 10:53, 28 August 2024

TCG Series

The EX Series of the Pokémon Trading Card Game marks the beginning of a new generation, both in terms of the core series games with the introduction of Generation III, and with the rights to translate and distribute the TCG outside Japan transferring from Wizards of the Coast to Pokémon USA and Nintendo. During this Series, Pokémon USA would go on to fully establish the Pokémon Organized Play program and begin to make new promotional merchandise available, many of which have become staple methods of release alongside new expansions, or to promote specific Pokémon. Below is a chronological list of all the items released during the EX Series of the Trading Card Game.

EX Ruby & Sapphire Theme Decks

Continuing the tradition of releasing Theme Decks alongside main expansions, the first of those under Nintendo feature the fully evolved forms of two of the three Hoenn first partner Pokémon, Blaziken and Swampert, in the Ruby Theme Deck and Sapphire Theme Deck, respectively. Both Theme Decks feature a handful of new Generation III Pokémon and Trainer cards debuting in the EX Ruby & Sapphire expansion, and introduce players to the game mechanics brought into effect with the beginning of the EX Series.

EX Ruby & Sapphire mousepad

This mousepad was given out as a free promotion item during the Origins Game Fair 2003. Nintendo and Pokémon Organized Play were promoting the Pokémon Trading Card Game at this convention and these were a way to commentate the release of EX Ruby & Sapphire.

EX Sandstorm Theme Decks

The Theme Decks accompanying the second EX Series expansion, EX Sandstorm, continue the desert theme with Caravan and Oasis. Each deck features one of the Generation III Fossil Pokémon and an array of supporting cards, with Caravan focusing on the Barnacle Pokémon Cradily, and Oasis focusing on the Plate Pokémon Armaldo.

EX Series Collector's Tin

The first collector's tin was released in November 2003 in what would prove to be the foundation for regular items in all future TCG Series merchandise, serving as an effective way of offering promotional cards and multiple booster packs, as well as providing adequate storage for cards. The EX Series Collector's Tin includes Pikachu and Meowth Black Star Promotional cards, five EX Series booster packs (3 from EX Ruby & Sapphire, 2 from EX Sandstorm), and a double-sided poster, featuring an EX Ruby & Sapphire and EX Sandstorm card checklist on one side and Ken Sugimori illustrations of Pokémon in Hoenn Pokédex order on the other.

EX Dragon Theme Decks

As two of several focal Pokémon in the EX Dragon expansion, Flygon and Salamence feature in the accompanying WindBlast and FireFang Theme Decks, respectively. The decks are based on the Flygon and Salamence constructed Half Decks released alongside the Japanese equivalent of EX Dragon, Rulers of the Heavens. The packaging style for these Theme Decks was also changed from a cuboid to trapezoidal prism, which has remained roughly the same for all Theme Deck packaging since.

EX Team Magma vs Team Aqua Theme Decks

With the release of EX Team Magma vs Team Aqua came two more Theme Decks, with each focusing on one of the rivalling villainous teams from Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald: Team Magma and Team Aqua. Both decks include an assortment of Pokémon that belong to their specific team, as well as supporting Trainer cards. The key Pokémon in each deck mirrors those that each team strives to awaken in the games, with Team Magma including Team Magma's Groudon, and Team Aqua including Team Aqua's Kyogre.

EX Series Value Pack

Released in March 2004 was the first promotional box set of the EX Series, the EX Series Value Pack. The box contains three booster packs, one each from the first three EX Series expansions: EX Ruby & Sapphire, EX Sandstorm, and EX Dragon. The box is unique in that the boosters are packaged in a blister, this is evident from the height of the box. Also included was a Black Star Promotional card of the Pokémon Ludicolo.

EX Hidden Legends Theme Decks

EX Hidden Legends was supplemented with two Theme Decks: Forest Guardian and Wish Maker. Both Theme Decks appear to draw inspiration from Pokémon movies, with the inclusion of Dark Celebi in Forest Guardian alluding to the role of the Celebi in Celebi: The Voice of the Forest, and Jirachi in Wish Maker referencing the title of the sixth Pokémon movie, Jirachi: Wish Maker. Both of these Pokémon are dual-typed, expanding on those introduced in the EX Team Magma vs Team Aqua expansion.

EX Trainer Kit

Conceived as a method of introducing players to the game and guiding them to an intermediate level, the EX Trainer Kit was released in June 2004. Unlike Theme Decks, the cards in the EX Trainer Kit are separated into Half Decks and have their own collection symbol and number, much like some products released in Japan, though all are reprints from EX Ruby & Sapphire, EX Sandstorm, and EX Dragon. The EX Trainer Kit features exclusive prints of Latias and Latios, and also comes packaged with two rule booklets, a coin, counters, and an EX Series booster pack.

EX FireRed & LeafGreen Theme Decks

Promoting the remakes of the Generation I titles, the EX FireRed & LeafGreen expansion also had two Theme Decks released alongside it. The decks focus on the evolutionary lines of two Kanto first partner Pokémon, with Charmeleon featured in the FireRed Theme Deck, and Ivysaur featured in the LeafGreen Theme Deck. Charizard and Venusaur appear as Pokémon-ex in the main expansion. Such rare cards are typically not included in Theme Decks, hence their exclusion from their individual evolutionary lines.

Each is packaged with one of four possible Cosmos Holofoil promotional cards, previously available as Non Holofoil cards via a Target promotion, two early EX Series booster packs, and a sticker sheet matching the design of the tin artwork. The artwork for each tin is taken from the Japanese booster pack artwork from four previously released expansions, which include Miracle of the Desert, Rulers of the Heavens, Magma VS Aqua: Two Ambitions and Flight of Legends.

 In November 2005 following the release of the EX Unseen Forces and EX Delta Species expansion were new Blister Packs, where the available items are presented in card backs sealed with vacuum molded plastic. While the packaging makes little resemblance to EX Unseen Forces, subsequent related Blister Packs would feature packaging that mirrored the design of the booster packs of the relevant expansion, and would go on to be released in tandem with them. Instead of Black Star Promotional cards, these packs made available exclusive Cosmos Holofoil variants of {{p|Sceptile}} and {{p|Swampert}} from {{TCG|POP Series 1}}. In addition to these were an assortment of three EX Series booster packs and one game coin, normally found in {{TCG|Theme Deck}}s.

 In November 2006, shortly after the release of EX Dragon Frontiers, two new promotional cards were made available in Blister Packs promoting the expansion. The two cards were {{p|Plusle}} and {{p|Minun}}, both from {{TCG|POP Series 3}} with the Cosmos Holofoil treatment. The packs included two EX Dragon Frontiers booster packs, one {{TCG|EX Deoxys}} or {{TCG|EX Legend Maker}} booster pack, and one coin featuring either {{p|Tyranitar}} or {{p|Gardevoir}}. Released later in April 2007 was smaller Blister Pack featuring the same design that included a {{p|Pikachu}} promotional card and only two booster packs–one from EX Dragon Frontiers and one from POP Series 2. These smaller Two Pack Blisters, often called Checklane Blisters, would later appear more frequently and more in time with other products promoting a particular expansion.
