EX Dragon (Japanese: 天空の覇者 Rulers of the Heavens) is the name given to an expansion of cards and Theme Decks for the Pokémon Trading Card Game. It continued to release Generation III Pokémon into the TCG.

Information

• EX Dragon was the first expansion to feature cards with Colorless as a Weakness or Resistance, primarily to accommodate the influx of Dragon Pokémon included in this expansion. Prior to the introduction of the Dragon-type in the TCG, Dragon Pokémon were typically Colorless, therefore the change was necessary to correctly correlate damage calculation in the TCG with the main series games, as Dragon-type Pokémon are vulnerable to Dragon-type attacks.
• A few cards from the Gift Box were included in this expansion, meaning the gap between their Japanese and English release was only 1 week. With the inclusion of the EX Dragon Prereleases however, these cards were also available in English first, similar to a number of cards from EX Sandstorm.
• EX Dragon was also the first expansion since Skyridge to include box toppers. Unlike previous box toppers, these cards are regular-sized and appear as secret cards as part of the expansion. These cards are Charmander, Charmeleon and Charizard.
• The Prerelease card for this set is Gyarados. Prereleases were held on the weekends of 15th/16th and 22nd/23rd November 2003.
