Jamboree (TCG)

Jamboree was a name given to the last set Wizards of the Coast intended to release after losing the Pokémon TCG license. However, it was never released.

Release date: Fall 2003. The set was meant to be released after Skyridge (TCG) along with Legendary Collection 2, but was prevent from releasing by Nintendo.

Miscellaneous:

  • The basis of Jamboree is exactly what its name implied; a fun mix of Pokémon cards. Taking cues from other previously unreleased sets Crosstrainer and the Unnamed Wizards Set, Jamboree was going to have a number of cards Wizards created on their own and other cards never previously released in English from sets like Vending and other promos. Ultimately, Jamboree might have actually brought North American players up to date with Japanese players, as many Japanese cards have yet to be released in English.
  • A lot for this set, like promotional material and box and pack designs, were created, finalized and ready to be released. However, Nintendo prevented this set from being released, so it never made it in the hands of North American players.
