About

The Expedition Base Set, released in 2002, marked the beginning of the e-Reader series in the Pokémon Trading Card Game, introducing players to a new era of gameplay and card mechanics. Set in the lush and diverse landscapes of the Pokémon world, the lore of this set revolves around exploration and discovery, inviting trainers to venture into uncharted territories filled with unique Pokémon and hidden treasures. This set is notable for its introduction of the e-Reader technology, allowing players to scan cards to unlock additional content, such as mini-games and special features. Mechanically, the Expedition Base Set also introduced the concept of Pokémon-ex, powerful cards that offered significant advantages but came with the risk of giving opponents extra prize cards when defeated. With its rich artwork and innovative features, the set captivated both collectors and players, laying the groundwork for future expansions in the Pokémon TCG universe.
