They were first introduced in '''''{{TCG|Legendary Collection}}''''', where they were oversized, reverse-holographic versions of a card from within the set. Original Box Toppers measured 126.5 x 90.0 mm, compared with Regular cards measuring 87.0 x 63.0 mm and Jumbo cards at 205.5 x 145.5 mm. Starting in '''''{{TCG|EX Team Magma vs Team Aqua}}''''', Box Toppers became Regular sized cards with a design unique to the set. These Regular size Box Toppers and the secret insert cards, such as {{TCG ID|EX Unseen Forces|Celebi ex|117}} in '''''{{TCG|EX Unseen Forces}}''''', have card numbers which exceed the number of cards within the set (e.g. "98/97") and are always {{rar|Rare Holo}} Holo rares. The inclusion of Box Toppers ended following '''''{{TCG|EX Holon Phantoms}}''''', while some of the booster pack boxes contained a Pokémon figurine instead, but the inclusion of {{TCG|secret cards}} has flourished. | ||
