 The set also carries on a tradition from {{TCG|Stormfront|Intense Fight in the Destroyed Sky}} and includes three classic cards from the original sets: {{TCG ID|Jungle|Scyther|10}}, {{TCG ID|Base Set|Electabuzz|20}} and {{TCG ID|Base Set|Hitmonchan|7}}. These cards pay homage to the {{TCG|Haymaker}} {{TCG|deck archetype}}, which dominated competitive play in the early years of the TCG.
-===Trivia===
-*The new prefix for the set derives from '''D'''iamond, '''P'''earl and the chemical symbol for {{wp|platinum}} ('''Pt'''). Unlike DP1, the set continues to use a set numbering system, which was re-introduced on the Japanese cards in ''Intense Fight in the Destroyed Sky''.
-*The set includes Drapion LV.X, continuing a trend in which promotional LV.X cards are reprinted in the set released immediately after their promotional release. This was also the case with {{TCG|Lucario}}, {{TCG|Garchomp}}, {{TCG|Porygon-Z}} and {{TCG|Heatran}}.
-*The set sees the return of {{TCG|Rainbow Energy}} for the first time since its 2006 print in {{TCG|EX Legend Maker}}. For the first time in Organized Play, it was unplayable in the [[2007-08 Modified format]].
-*Galactic's Conquest is the first set since {{TCG|Diamond & Pearl|Pokémon Card Game DP}} to be released alongside an Entry Pack rather than with a deck kit or two half decks, having been released alongside {{TCG|Entry Pack DPt}}.
