With the exception of the first Pokémon Trading Card set which was released in January 1999, all expansion sets have been issued with a unique symbol. This symbol appears at the bottom of all trading cards that form part of that set, usually next to the card number. This symbol is particularly helpful where card sets have the same number of cards and card numbers are duplicated.
This page offers a complete list of Pokémon set symbols in order from latest to the original set. It includes sets released by McDonald’s and those issued as POP sets.
