Information
POP Series 8 is the third DP Series set of the Pokémon Organized Play program and follows a similar trend set in POP Series 6. As such, this set contains several reprints. Unlike POP Series 7 however, it also includes some new cards. All of the Pokémon featured in the set are from the Japanese "DP-P" Promotional cards collection. POP Series 8 packs also include a third card; one of the eight basic Energy cards, in light of the 2008-2009 season, which focuses on Energy.
The release of POP Series 7 faced scrutiny by players, as the entire set comprised of Pokémon that were not in danger of being rotated out of play over the course of the coming season. POP obviously listened to feedback from the release of the set, as POP Series 8 includes arguably some of the most useful Trainer cards in the current format. Coupled with the Energy also available in the packs, POP Series 8 gained a more positive reception than that of POP Series 6 or 7.
Trivia
- The booster pack design features Heatran.
