Expedition Base Set
Expedition Base Set is the first main set of the e-Card era of the Pokémon TCG, built around cards that work with the e-Reader and their distinctive frames with a dot-code strip. The set has 165 cards and opens the series with strong holos such as Charizard, Blastoise, Mewtwo and Tyranitar. Other defining features are Poké-Powers and Poké-Bodies, plus reverse holos available for every card except basic Energy.
