Ancient Origins checklist

Ancient Origins is a small set that punches well above its weight. Released in 2015, it introduced the Ancient Trait mechanic and packed a lot of value into few cards — the standout being the Hoopa-EX, the mischievous ring-summoning Pokémon that became both a competitive staple and a genuinely iconic card of the era. There's some stunning Mega and Primal artwork in here too. Because it's a compact set with big chase cards, it's a satisfying one to target if you like a set you can actually finish. Mark off what you own below.
