Expansion Pack Card List

Expansion Pack overview

The Japanese Pokémon TCG's Expansion Pack is built on a compact structure: 102 catalogued printings, led by 38 commons and 32 uncommons, with 16 rares and 16 holo rares at the top of the ladder. It is an expansion in the Original Series era and was released on October 20, 1996. Its card list reads as a roll call of the original starters and Kanto powerhouses, with Charizard, Blastoise and Venusaur heading the most valuable cards. Because the set is so small and so evenly stepped, the holo rares define it more than any single theme does.
