EX Power Keepers (Japanese: ワールドチャンピオンズパック World Champions Pack) is the name given to an Expansion of cards and Theme Decks for the Pokémon Trading Card Game. Previously released only in English and European languages, it was subsequently released in Japanese to give native players the chance to use cards from the set in Worlds 2007. It was also the last Expansion to feature the "EX" prefix and the last Generation III set.

Set size

• Both the English and Japanese sets contain 108 cards

Sequence

• 31st English release
• 34th Japanese release

Release dates

• 14th February 2007 - English Expansion
• 5th July 2007 - Japanese Expansion

Prereleases were held on the weekends of 3rd/4th and 10th/11th February 2007.

Trivia

• EX Power Keepers is loosely based around the Hoenn Elite Four; Sidney, Phoebe, Glacia and Drake. They each have their own Stadium Card, and the Pokémon ex featured in the set are all Pokémon owned by them in the games. Some Pokémon in the set have attacks that are enhanced when a particular Elite Four Stadium card is in play.
• EX Power Keepers was conceived to “fill the gap” between EX Dragon Frontiers and Diamond & Pearl, due to Nintendo's continuing trend of releasing Expansion sets in time with related games.
• With no Japanese set at the time to correlate with EX Power Keepers, Nintendo created many new cards, making this set the first since Team Rocket to use original cards created outside of Japan. As a result, many cards feature artwork by Ken Sugimori (as his Pokémon character images are used widely in other media and are readily available) plus background images edited with filter effects from various sources.
• Several cards in the set are reprints from older sets with new artwork, bringing back old favorites to once again see tournament play. These cards include: -
  • Blaziken (reprint from EX Ruby & Sapphire)
  • Combusken (reprint from EX Ruby & Sapphire)
  • Omastar (reprint from EX Sandstorm)
  • Wobbuffet (reprint from EX Sandstorm)
  • Magneton (reprint from EX Dragon)
  • Machamp (reprint from EX Hidden Legends)
  • Lanturn (reprint from EX Hidden Legends)
  • Ninetales (reprint from EX Hidden Legends)
• In Japan, the set was available only through the Pokémon Card Game website, in a similar fashion to the distribution of the Pokémon Web Expansion. Released under the name of World Champions Pack, it was intended for Japanese players only so they would not be at a disadvantage at Worlds 2007.
• Japanese players could order their packs online from 15th June 2007 until 1st July 2007, a rather limited window of opportunity. Packs were released from 5th July onwards to those who had ordered them.
• Each pack contained 15 cards as opposed to 10.
• There are no Half Decks to correlate with the Japanese release.
• The elusive Eeveelutions make their English debut in this set, previously only available as Japanese PLAY Promotional cards. To the disappointment of players and collectors, only Flareon, Jolteon and Vaporeon were released, but Espeon and Umbreon later appeared in POP Series 5, albeit in non-holographic forms.
• At the time of its release, EX Power Keepers finally brought the number of sets released in English and in Japanese equal once again, but with its Japanese release the sequence has been thrown out of balance.
• Despite already being available as PLAY Promotional cards in the past, the Japanese set still includes the Eeveelutions , allowing players not in the Players Club or those who did not gain enough EXP Points for these cards a chance of obtaining them again.
• This is the first time an entire English-exclusive Expansion has been translated into Japanese. Previously, only single cards had been translated from English into Japanese, such as Dark Raichu from the Team Rocket Expansion and several cards from EX Sandstorm.
• The reverse-holographic design for this set is a plain holographic foil with the EX Power Keepers set logo. Reverse-holographic versions of holographic rares have foil name text, HP text and rarity symbol.
• EX Power Keepers does not include a secret box-topper card.
• The Prerelease card for this set is Cacturne.
