[[Image:DP02-Symbol.gif|right]]
*33rd Japanese release
*Mysterious Treasures is based on the [[Sinnoh]] [[legendary trio]], {{p|Uxie}}, {{p|Mesprit}} and {{p|Azelf}}, hence the Japanese name ''The Lakes' Secret'' as these Pokémon reside at the bottom of Sinnoh's lakes.
 
*Like {{TCG|EX Sandstorm}} (which was also the second expansion for its particular generation ([[Generation III|III]])), Mysterious Treasures introduces the two Fossil Pokémon portrayed in [[Pokémon Diamond and Pearl]] in card form. The new rule regarding Fossil cards first announced with the release of {{TCG|Diamond & Pearl}} applies to the new Skull and Armor Fossil cards released in this set.
=Release dates=
*Mysterious Treasures also introduces Pokémon that come with held items; in this case Berries. These held items work in the same fashion as Poké-Bodies, in that the effect the item provides is active whenever the Pokémon is in play. This is another game mechanic derived from the games, in that some wild Pokémon come with an item attached when they are caught.
*2nd March 2007 - Japanese Expansion
*Mysterious Treasures features the secret card Time-Space Distortion, which was previously only available as a [[Unnumbered Promotional Cards (TCG)|Japanese promotional card]] at Battle Road Spring 2007. Like its Japanese counterpart it features a holographic border, making this the first English Trainer card to have this treatment. It is also the first secret card included in a set since {{TCG|EX Holon Phantoms}}.
*22nd August 2007 - English Expansion
*For some reason, although there are cards for {{TCG|Abra}} and {{TCG|Alakazam}}, there is no {{TCG|Kadabra}}. This is likely to be the reson for one of Abra's attacks allowing it to evolve straight to Alakazam.
 
Prereleases were held on the weekends of 11th/12th, 18th/19th and 25th/26th August 2007. An unusual third weekend was added as the first weekend clashed with Worlds 2007.

This is another game mechanic derived from the games, in that some wild Pokémon come with an item attached when they are caught. Strangely, these Pokémon do not feature a collection number and are placed at the end of their respective type lists in the Japanese Expansion.
