EX Team Magma vs Team Aqua (Japanese: マグマVSアクア ふたつの野望 Magma VS Aqua: Two Ambitions) is the name given to an Expansion of cards and Theme Decks for the Pokémon Trading Card Game. The set revolved around the theme of the opposing villainous groups Team Magma and Team Aqua.

Information

• EX Team Magma vs Team Aqua was the first set to feature dual-type Pokémon, another correlation to the games, as most Pokémon have a secondary type. A noteworthy point is that all dual-type Pokémon in this set have Darkness as their secondary type.
• The card layout was visually enhanced for Pokémon belonging to their respective teams:
  • Pokémon belonging to Team Magma had a character window with a "crack" effect, while those belonging to Team Aqua had a "bubble" effect.
  • The Pokémon type symbol in the top right corner of the card included a similar graphic addition for both teams.
  • Pokémon belonging to a team displayed their respective insignias at the bottom right of the attack box.
• The Japanese name for this set takes a leaf from the English version's book by adding "EX" to the set title. The EX means this is an "extra" set, in that it deviates from releasing the rest of the Generation III Pokémon and features "owner's" Pokémon. Many people made the mistake in adding "EX" onto the names of the next expansions. It was originally thought that Team Rocket Strikes Back would have the title "ADV EX2", but the ADV prefix was abandoned after the release of ADV 4: The Solved Seal.
• Accompanying the Japanese set were Deck Kits, which contained two Half Decks. These contained a lot of cards that were missing from the main set, and were added when the English version was produced. Nintendo used the same idea to produce the English EX Trainer Kits #1 and #2.
• This is Nintendo's first Expansion with "owner's" Pokémon.
• This was the last set to include cards with Dot-Code technology and the last set to be classed as Pokémon-e Trading Card Game.
• The secret box-topper for this set is Absol. Another secret card, Jirachi appeared randomly in booster packs.
• The Prerelease card for this set is Team Aqua's Cacnea. Prereleases were held on the weekends of 6th/7th and 13th/14th March 2004.
