Pokémon Web (TCG)

Pokémon Web (Japanese: ポケモンカード★web Pokémon Card★web) is a Japanese-only release of the Pokémon Trading Card Game. This was the first Pokémon TCG expansion available exclusively online through Pokémon Center Online.

Information
Pokémon Web contained reprints of cards featured in TCG Base Set, TCG Jungle, TCG Fossil and TCG Team Rocket, along with several promotional cards. The cards were on the e-series card design, which likely added to their appeal. Rather than just producing complete reprints, MediaFactory brought old favorites into the new generation of the TCG. The set logo "Web" is in place of the "e" symbol as seen in future expansions. These cards featured a new division of TCG Pokémon Powers into TCG Poké-Powers and TCG Poké-Body (Poké-Bodies). Poké-Powers required activation to use, whereas Poké-Bodies were always active unless blocked by a specific card.

Pokémon Web cards could be purchased online in packs of ten, including nine standard cards and one holofoil card. The cards were packaged in clear plastic with a barcoded cover card featuring the set logo as opposed to traditional foil boosters. Due to card packs being distributed online only, and due to their use in playable format at the time, cards from this set can be hard to find.
