===Spotlight on: EX Power Keepers===
===Gotta Catch 'Em All!: Koffing===
* '''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 the sixteenth and final expansion of cards of the EX Series of the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]].
* '''Koffing''' (Japanese: '''ドガース''' ''Dogars'') is a {{type|Poison}} Pokémon. It evolves into {{p|Weezing}} starting at level 35. It is classified as the "Poison Gas" Pokémon and has the Ability {{a|Levitate}}.
* The set was released February 14, 2007 in North America, and July 5, 2007 in Japan.
* It is #109 in the National Pokédex, #115{{tt|*|114 in Generation II}} in the Johto Pokédex and #108 in the Hoenn Pokédex. It is set to appear in the extended Unova dex in {{2v2|Black|White|2}}. Its Fiore, Almia and Oblivia browser numbers are: 089, 187, 045 respectively.
* EX Power Keepers is loosely based around the [[Hoenn]] [[Elite Four]]; [[Sidney]], [[Phoebe]], [[Glacia]] and [[Drake (Elite Four)|Drake]]. They each have their own {{TCG|Stadium Card}}, and the {{TCG|Pokémon-ex}} featured in the set are all Pokémon owned by them in the games.
* Koffing made its anime debut in ''[[EP002|Pokémon Emergency!]]'' under the ownership of [[James]] of {{TRT}}. It was his main Pokémon and often used its {{m|SmokeScreen}} to distract {{Ash}} and {{Ashfr}} while attempting to catch {{AP|Pikachu}}. Another Koffing will be used by [[Homika]] in [[BW083]], making it the first non-Unova Pokémon to be seen in Unova.
* With no Japanese set at the time to correlate with EX Power Keepers, many English exclusive cards were created, making this set the first since {{TCG|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.
* In the [[Pokémon Adventures]] manga, Koffing was seen as one of [[Koga]]'s Pokémon alongside its evolution. When Koga and {{adv|Blue}} are ambushed by [[Agatha]]'s {{p|Gengar}} in {{PAV|7}}, Koga uses Koffing's smoke to relay his tactical plan to Blue without Gengar noticing.  
* In Japan, the set was available only through the Pokémon Card Game website, in a similar fashion to the distribution of the {{TCG|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 the {{TCG|2007 World Championships}}.
* {{TCG|Koffing}} has been featured on {{#expr: {{PAGESINCATEGORY:Koffing (TCG)}} - 1}} different cards since it debuted in the {{TCG|Base Set}} of the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]]. Koffing cards are normally {{ct|Psychic}} {{TCG|Basic Pokémon}}.
* The English release featured two {{TCG|Theme deck}}s, {{TCG|Dark Blast}} and {{TCG|Mind Game}}.
* In the [[Pokémon Red and Blue beta]], Koffing was originally known as "Ny", representing New York City's polluted air.
