Information

• EX Unseen Forces is currently the largest set to be produced by Nintendo, standing at 144 cards in size. Overall, it is the fourth largest English set.
• The names of the Theme Decks are references to the Japanese name of the set.
• EX Unseen Forces is the first set since Neo Destiny to contain Unown. In the English set, the Unown have their own sub-set and numbering system, each one numbered as @/28. While they were either common or uncommon in the Japanese set, they were all holographic in the English version. An Unown replaced the reverse-holographic card in every fifth pack.
• The second “o” in Ho-Oh is capitalized in this set, unlike in previous sets where it was written in lowercase.
• The reverse-holographic design for this set features a 3D Poké Ball pattern and the EX Unseen Forces set logo.
• This is the last set to have an Owner's Pokémon ex.
• The secret box topper for this set is Rocket's Persian ex. Another secret card, Celebi ex, appeared randomly in booster packs.
• The Prerelease card for this set is Bayleef. Prereleases were held on the weekends of 13th/14th, 20th/21st and 27th/28th August 2005. An unusual third weekend was added as the second weekend clashed with Worlds 2005.
• The symbol for EX Unseen Forces is Ho-Oh's left wing crossing over Lugia's right wing.
• The Japanese Half Decks for this set were the Generation II Starter Pokémon, but the Epic Collection Decks were nearly the exact same, just in English instead of Japanese.
