2003 Pokemon EX Ruby and Sapphire Set – History

All of the Third Generation sets have “EX” in their name; this comes from the Pokémon EX present in these sets.

EX Ruby and Sapphire, released on June 18, 2003, is the 17th set of 109 cards in the Pokémon Trading Card Game. This set was the first set to be adapted into English by Pokémon USA, Inc. after the card game’s rights were transferred back from Wizards of the Coast. EX Ruby & Sapphire was the first expansion to be produced by Nintendo.

Its symbol is a jewel with a brilliant cut, viewed from above. It is named after the video games Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire.

There were nine cards in each booster pack. These packs contain one reverse holographic card, one rare card, two uncommon cards, and five common cards. The reverse holo and rare card were, in most cases, the last two cards in the pack.

The four EX Ruby & Sapphire pack wrappers each highlight a different Pokémon. Which are Lairon, Manectric, Sceptile, or Mightyena.
