The Legendary Treasures expansion, for the first time since {{TCG|Neo Revelation}}, and only the second time in [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]] history, is a set that does not have any associated {{TCG|Theme Deck}}s. Instead, there are Theme Decks based on the [[Pokémon X and Y]] [[starter Pokémon]], released the same day as the expansion and starting off the XY Series of the card game. These Theme Decks are being released November 8th, the same day as the {{TCG|XY Beginning Set}}s in Japan.

This expansion, and the Japanese equivalents; EX Battle Boost and Shiny Collection, feature reprints with alternate artwork from throughout the entirety of the Black & White Series. The two Japanese releases are the first to be described as '''Concept Packs''' instead of being considered main expansions. The main difference between a Concept Pack and a main expansion is that Concept Pack cards don't necessarily feature Rarities, though they both still featured {{TCG|Pokémon-EX}} and {{TCG|secret card}}s.
