New Pokémon sets are releasing all the time, and with them come a host of new trading cards to collect. So far, there’s been almost 100 mainline Pokémon card sets, with special boosters adding even more cards into the mix. That’s a lot of Pokémon. If you need help keeping up with Pokémon releases, then we’re here to help – with a complete, start-to-finish list of Pokémon TCG expansions.
This is the definitive place to find all Pokémon sets in order – reverse order specifically, so you can find the most recent Pokémon TCG sets first. While you’re here, we can also point you to Pokémon’s newest set or to the most powerful Pokémon the TCG has ever seen. We can even help you answer the twin age old questions – how many Pokémon are there, and how many Pokémon cards are there?
Once you’ve perused our Pokémon guides to your heart’s content, you can take a look at every Pokémon set, like, ever.
