2008 Japanese edition almanac

This page covers Japan's five releases of 2008 — 405 cards: 63 + 64 on 14 March, 92 on 10 July, 96 on 10 October and 90 on 26 December. 2008 is the year Japan changed blocks mid-year: the first three sets are the end of the DP era, the last two open DPt and introduce Pokémon SP. The English edition of the same year is a different shape — 458 cards across four sets — because English ran a set behind all year and printed the last two Japanese sets of 2008 only in 2009.

Five sets, 405 cards, and the year the game added a place to lose things

2007 settled the frame; 2008 changed what a card can do. The year opens with two half-sets printed on the same March day, runs through a July set built around a film, and then in October abandons the DP block entirely and starts a new one. Two years after LV.X arrived, the game adds two more ideas: the Lost Zone, a place cards go that is neither the discard pile nor the deck, and Pokémon SP, Basic Pokémon that belong to a faction rather than to an evolution line. Both are still in the game.

The Lost Zone arrives in July, on one card — Giratina, 048/092 — and the whole set is built to make you want to put something there. The same set is where the number on a Japanese card stops being a block-wide code and goes back to 001/092, and where Pokémon cards stop printing Pokédex entries to make room for longer text. Three months later the DP era is over: Galactic's Conquest starts DPt, gives the Lost Zone to Team Galactic's whole toolkit, and puts G on the corner of eleven Pokémon. December adds GL and E4 and the mechanic stops being one faction's gimmick. Nineteen LV.X across the year, and five of them level up from an SP body rather than an ordinary Pokémon.

Each set opens with what it was and when it landed, then every card in set order. The number line changes twice this year, and it says which printing it is. The March sets still print the block-wide code — DPBP#049 — and the LV.X, Trainer and Energy cards in them print no code at all, shown as — unnumbered. From July's Intense Fight onward the card prints 001/092, so that is what the number line shows: position, not a code. LV.X is marked as its own rarity throughout, and from October the SP cards keep their owner's letter — G, GL, E4 — in the name, because that letter is part of what the card is.

About the pictures and the numbers. Every card face here is a Japanese scan; nothing on this page is illustrated with an English printing. The stats are another matter: no Japanese card database covers the DP or DPt era, so HP, type, stage, attacks and illustrator are read off the English printing of the same card, paired one card at a time. Four cards have no English twin at all and were transcribed from the card face instead — which ones, and how the pairing was checked, is under About this data.

What happened this year

9 entries
  • Great Encounters, 106 cards — English's cut of Japan's October 2007 pair. Majestic Dawn follows in May with the other half, and by then English is assembling sets out of two Japanese releases at a time.

  • Cry from the Mysterious and Temple of Anger (秘境の叫び / 怒りの神殿), on sale the same day as two separate packs — 63 and 64 cards in this archive, against the 65 each that most lists quote. Heatran and Giratina both appear for the first time.

  • Majestic Dawn, 100 cards — the second half of that 2007 pair. This is the last English set of 2008 that corresponds to something Japan printed in 2007.

  • Intense Fight in the Destroyed Sky (破空の激闘), 92 cards. The Lost Zone is introduced on Giratina 048/092, and the Japanese numbering goes back to 001/092 — the DPBP# block code is retired for good. Seven LV.X, the year's highest.

  • The eleventh film, Giratina and the Sky Warrior, opens in Japan. The July set was built around it: Giratina in the main set rather than as a promo, Shaymin as the set's Grass LV.X.

  • Legends Awakened, 146 cards — English merges Japan's two March half-sets into one, and adds what it needs from elsewhere. It is the largest English set of the year.

  • Galactic's Conquest (ギンガの覇道), 96 cards. The DP era ends and DPt begins. Pokémon SP debut, the Lost Zone becomes a faction's toolkit, and the corner of the card carries a new set symbol: Pt1.

  • Stormfront, 100 cards plus six — three secret reprints of Base Set evolution line cards and three shiny Pokémon. English's version of July's 破空の激闘, arriving four months late and without the Shaymin line.

  • Bonds to the End of Time (時の果ての絆), 90 cards. Pokémon SP widens from Team Galactic's G to GL for Gym Leaders and E4 for the Elite Four. Japan closes the year with the block it will spend 2009 filling out.

Promos, handouts & prizes

not itemised
Why this is empty. 2008's Japanese promotional cards sit in several strands — the DP-P series, the advance-ticket promo for Giratina and the Sky Warrior, Battle Road and league distributions, magazine appendices, and the Championship and Worlds participants' cards. Card faces for many exist, but our sources do not pin each card to a single distribution date and condition. The cards are real and they are 2008; the individual release facts are what is missing. Nothing here is filled in from memory.

DP5 shipped as two packs on the same day, not one. This is the Heatran half, Cry from the Mysterious: 63 cards in this archive, with a single LV.X in Rhyperior. Temple of Anger went on sale alongside it, and the eight basic Energy cards were the only ones printed in both halves. Technical Machines come back here after a long absence, one per half. The common / uncommon / holo split was never published, so it is not stated here. Price and pack size are taken from a period retail index, which lists 315 yen for eleven random cards for every DP and DPt expansion of 2008; the twenty-packs-a-box figure comes from the same kind of listing. No official announcement artwork could be located for this pack.

2008-03-14. 63 cards — 58 Pokémon, 5 Trainer and 0 Energy; 20 commons, 19 uncommons, 15 rares, 8 holofoil rares, 1 LV.X; Psychic 12, Grass 11, Water 11, Colourless 8, Fighting 6, Fire 5, Lightning 2, Darkness 2 and Metal 1; 17 artists worked on it and Ken Sugimori drew 9.

One half of a pair, and a reprint engine. March's two sets share a single block: Cry from the Mysterious is the Psychic-weighted half — twelve Psychic Pokémon against one Steel — and it leans on the Johto and Hoenn rosters far more than on Sinnoh. Heatran and Giratina both debut here, a month before either of them matters on a poster. The single LV.X is Rhyperior. Trainer count is down to five, because the tools that used to fill that slot moved to being Pokémon that hold items.

20 packs

The Regigigas half, released the same day as Cry from the Mysterious. 64 cards here, with two LV.X in Porygon-Z and Magnezone. The two Fossils split across the pair, Claw Fossil here and Root Fossil in the other half, and so do the two Technical Machines. The common / uncommon / holo split was never published, so it is not stated here. Price and pack size are taken from a period retail index, which lists 315 yen for eleven random cards for every DP and DPt expansion of 2008; the twenty-packs-a-box figure comes from the same kind of listing. No official announcement artwork could be located for this pack.

2008-03-14. 64 cards — 59 Pokémon, 5 Trainer and 0 Energy; 20 commons, 19 uncommons, 15 rares, 8 holofoil rares, 2 LV.X; Psychic 13, Water 12, Colourless 9, Fighting 9, Grass 6, Metal 6, Darkness 2, Lightning 1 and Fire 1; 13 artists worked on it and Ken Sugimori drew 11.

The other half, printed the same day. Where Cry from the Mysterious is Psychic, Temple of Anger is Water and Fighting — twelve Water, nine Fighting, and a Steel line that runs Probopass and Magnezone. It carries two LV.X, Porygon-Z and Magnezone, and the set's marquee cards are Regigigas, Luxray and a Deoxys in Normal Forme. English would fold both halves into one 146-card set in August, which is why the two Japanese halves have no one-to-one English twin at all.

Timed to the eleventh movie, Giratina and the Sky Warrior, which opened on 19 July 2008. 92 cards in this archive and six LV.X: Shaymin, Heatran, Raichu, Dusknoir, Machamp and Regigigas. The Lost Zone debuts here — Giratina 048/092 sends anything its attack Knocks Out there instead of to the discard pile, and no card in the game can pull it back. Numbering switches to the 001/092 style in this set; the two March packs still used the older DPBP# numbers. The common / uncommon / holo split was never published, so it is not stated here. Price and pack size are taken from a period retail index, which lists 315 yen for eleven random cards for every DP and DPt expansion of 2008; the twenty-packs-a-box figure comes from the same kind of listing. No official announcement artwork could be located for this pack.

2008-07-10. 92 cards — 83 Pokémon, 7 Trainer and 2 Energy; 28 commons, 25 uncommons, 19 rares, 13 holofoil rares, 6 LV.X, 1 secret rare; Psychic 19, Grass 12, Fighting 12, Colourless 9, Water 7, Lightning 7, Fire 6, Metal 6 and Darkness 5; 22 artists worked on it and Mitsuhiro Arita drew 11.

The set that brought the Lost Zone into the game. Giratina, 048/092, is the card that sends a Pokémon somewhere that is not the discard pile and not the deck — the first zone the game had added since it began. It is timed to the eleventh film, which opened nine days later. Six LV.X, the most any set this year carries: Shaymin, Heatran, Raichu, Dusknoir, Machamp and Regigigas. The last card, 092/092, is a Charizard that prints the star of a secret rare instead of an LV.X bar — a reprint of the Base Set card. Also the set where the numbering changes: from here Japanese cards print 001/092 instead of the block-wide DPBP# code, and every Pokémon card drops its Pokédex entry to make room for longer effect text.

The first DPt set, and it lands one new mechanic, not two. 96 cards, five LV.X. That mechanic is Pokémon SP: a Basic you play straight from hand that never evolves, marked with a G for Team Galactic after the name. The Lost Zone had already arrived three months earlier in Intense Fight in the Destroyed Sky; here it gets wired into the Team Galactic's Invention Tool kit. Numbered 001/096, with three secret cards at 094–096. The common / uncommon / holo split was never published, so it is not stated here. Price and pack size are taken from a period retail index, which lists 315 yen for eleven random cards for every DP and DPt expansion of 2008; the twenty-packs-a-box figure comes from the same kind of listing. No official announcement artwork could be located for this pack.

2008-10-10. 96 cards — 84 Pokémon, 11 Trainer and 1 Energy; 31 commons, 24 uncommons, 20 rares, 13 holofoil rares, 5 LV.X, 3 secret rares; Grass 16, Colourless 15, Psychic 14, Water 11, Fire 7, Lightning 6, Fighting 5, Darkness 5 and Metal 5; 23 artists worked on it and Kagemaru Himeno drew 8.

A new block, and a new kind of card. October opens the DPt era and introduces Pokémon SP — Basic Pokémon that never evolve, carry a G for Team Galactic, and are played from the hand like a Trainer would be. Five LV.X, three of them on SP bodies (Dialga G, Palkia G, Giratina). The set is also the first to hand the Lost Zone to a whole faction rather than one card: eleven Trainer cards, most of them Team Galactic's Invention gear, plus Cyrus's Conspiracy and Galactic HQ. 84 Pokémon is the largest Japanese count of the year.

This card stays in play when you play it. Discard this card if another Stadium card comes into play. If another card with the same name is in play, you can't play this card.

20 packs

The last set of 2008, and the one that multiplies the SP suffixes. 90 cards, five LV.X. Alongside G for Team Galactic come GL for Gym Leader and E4 for Elite Four, and all five appliance forms of Rotom get a card each. The set closes with three secret Pikachu at 088–090, printed in the old yellow 1996-style frame. The common / uncommon / holo split was never published, so it is not stated here. Price and pack size are taken from a period retail index, which lists 315 yen for eleven random cards for every DP and DPt expansion of 2008; the twenty-packs-a-box figure comes from the same kind of listing. No official announcement artwork could be located for this pack.

2008-12-26. 90 cards — 78 Pokémon, 8 Trainer and 4 Energy; 23 commons, 29 uncommons, 18 rares, 12 holofoil rares, 5 LV.X, 3 secret rares; Water 15, Lightning 12, Psychic 11, Fighting 10, Grass 8, Colourless 8, Metal 7, Darkness 4 and Fire 3; 33 artists worked on it and Ken Sugimori drew 10.

SP stops being one faction. December widens Pokémon SP from Team Galactic's G to GL for Gym Leaders and E4 for the Elite Four — Luxray GL, Floatzel GL, Roserade GL, Alakazam E4 — so the same mechanic now covers three different owners. Five LV.X again, and for the first time the LV.X sits on a GL body (Luxray GL, Floatzel GL). 33 artists, the widest spread of any set this year, and four Special Energy against a Trainer count of eight: the thinnest Trainer line of 2008.

What came next

4 entries
  • Platinum, 127 cards — English's version of October's Galactic's Conquest, with Pokémon SP and the Lost Zone arriving four months after Japan.

  • Rising Rivals, 111 cards — December's 時の果ての絆, plus the GL and E4 SP cards English had no set for until now.

  • The back half of 2008 is invisible to English players for six months. Anyone reading only English sets sees the DP era end in August 2008 and does not see the Lost Zone until February 2009.

  • Supreme Victors and then the Arceus set close out DPt in Japan while English is still catching up on 2008's autumn.

What 2008 leaves behind is a game with three new nouns — Lost Zone, Pokémon SP, and the owner's letter. None of them existed in January. The next two years are spent filling them in.

About this data

All 405 cards are listed, and none of them is reconstructed from a list of names. The counts match the set titles on the card database that holds the Japanese scans: 63 + 64 in March, 92 in July, 96 in October, 90 in December. One thing does not match: the two March half-sets are officially 130 cards (65 + 65), and the source only has 127 (63 + 64). The three missing cards are not invented and not stood in for — the sets are listed as they are, three short of the official count.

The number on the card changes twice this year, and the page shows whichever the card actually prints. March's sets still print a block-wide DPBP#049-style code, and their LV.X, Trainer and Energy cards print no code at all — 28 of them, shown as — unnumbered. From July's Intense Fight onward the card prints 001/092, so the number line reads 048/092: a position, not a code. Both were checked by cropping the bottom-right corner of the scan, not by trusting the database's field.

Every stat comes from the English printing of the same card, because no Japanese database covers the DP or DPt era. HP, type, stage, retreat cost, attacks, ability and illustrator are read off the English twin, and the pairing was checked card by card: name first, then an image fingerprint on the two scans, with a hard cutoff for anything that did not line up. Four cards in the whole year could not be paired: DP6 has two different Drifloon and English printed one; DPt1 has two different Lotad, two Vulpix and two Swablu and English printed one of each. Those four show stats transcribed from the Japanese card face, and their attack names are a plain translation rather than an official one — the cards were never printed in English, so no official name exists.

English was a set behind all year, in both directions. Great Encounters and Majestic Dawn are Japanese cards from October 2007. And the last two Japanese sets of 2008 — Galactic's Conquest and Bonds to the End of Time — did not reach English until February and May 2009, so the English edition page for 2008 does not contain them. The English page covers Great Encounters, Majestic Dawn, Legends Awakened and Stormfront: 458 cards.

The four English sets are not a translation of the five Japanese ones. Legends Awakened merges both March half-sets into one 146-card set; Stormfront takes July's 破空の激闘 but leaves the Shaymin line behind, and those cards turn up in Platinum in 2009. Stormfront also counts to 106 while printing 100: three secret reprints — Charmander, Charmeleon and a Charizard that reproduces the Base Set card — plus three shiny Pokémon numbered SH1–SH3. All six are listed.

Promotional cards are not listed for 2008. The DP-P series, the film's advance ticket promos, Battle Road and league handouts, and the 2008 Championship cards are all real and all absent, because per-card distribution dates and conditions could not be confirmed against a primary source. Nothing is filled in from memory.

About the scans. Card faces are Japanese prints from the card database that holds them. 402 of the 405 are the full-size scans; three exist only as small thumbnails at the source and are left at that size rather than being upscaled or replaced with another card's picture. Where a card has no Japanese name in a public species list — a few alternate forms and the SP cards — the Japanese name is taken from the official species name of the same Pokémon.

Five sets, 405 cards, nineteen LV.X, and the year the game stopped being only about evolving. What 2008 actually changes is what a card can be: a Pokémon that belongs to an organisation instead of a line, a card that goes somewhere the discard pile cannot reach, and a number in the corner that finally means a position again. The next two years are spent filling those three things in — and the 2009 page is where that starts.
