==Information==
==Information==
The gift box contains two {{TCG|Half deck|half deck}}s, focusing on the legendary Pokémon {{p|Latias}} and {{p|Latios}}. It also contains the last several English-exclusive {{TCG|EX Sandstorm}} cards that were carried over from the Japanese {{TCG|Magma VS Aqua: Two Ambitions}} expansion. Several cards included in the gift box were also released in the {{TCG|EX Dragon}} expansion, meaning the gap between their Japanese release and their English commercial release was only 1 week. With the inclusion of Prereleases however, these cards were also available in English first.
