Triumphant is the final expansion to include both {{TCG|Pokémon Prime}} and {{TCG|Pokémon LEGEND}}. Although the Japanese expansion includes three Pokémon LEGEND (Kyogre & Groudon LEGEND, Rayquaza & Deoxys LEGEND and Palkia & Dialga LEGEND) only Palkia & Dialga LEGEND was released in the English expansion, alongside Lost Link's Darkrai & Cresselia LEGEND. The other two were released prior in the {{TCG|Undaunted}} expansion. The eight Pokémon Prime originate evenly from Clash at the Summit and Lost Link. As Triumphant was designed to be the end of the HeartGold & SoulSilver Series, the amount of Pokémon Prime released in a set was increased from 6 to 8 in order to include everything that has been released in Japan by the time of the English release.
