'''Pokémon Card Game DP''' will be the seventeenth Pokémon TCG set released by Pokémon USA when it is released in May 2007. The set is the first in English-language territories to include fourth-generation Pokémon; namely, those that first featured in the [[Pokémon Diamond and Pearl|''Pokémon Diamond'' and ''Pearl'']] video games on the [[Nintendo DS]].


{{R to section}}
==Types of Pokémon in the set==
===Pokémon Level 'X'===
Pokémon Level 'X' (or Pokémon Lv.X) replace Pokémon-ex. Pokémon Lv.X evolve from Pokémon of the same name, but as they have the same name only four in any combination are allowed in a deck. For example, 4 [[Piplup]] are allowed, 4 [[Pottaishi]] are allowed, 2 [[Emperte]] are allowed, and 2 Emperte Lv.X are allowed. Emperte can be evolved into Emperte Lv.X. Pokémon Lv.X can use any Poké-Powers and attacks present on their original form. However, only Active Pokémon can be Levelled Up.

Pokémon Lv.X are fairly similar to Pokémon-ex and Pokémon-* (neither of which are likely to return to the Trading Card Game). As with Pokémon-ex, they are much more powerful than their regular counterparts (the only difference is that this time they actually evolve from said counterparts). As with Pokémon-*, the image of the Pokémon on the card ventures outside the image border.

==Changes to the card format==
Several changes have been made to the format of the cards; some of these changes were included on previous card formats, and others and brand new.

From Base Set in 1999 to Neo Destiny in 2002 (and Legendary Collection in the same year), cards featured Pokémon data such as the Pokémon’s level, number, height, weight and Pokédex data. This was absent for four years during the E-Series and the EX series, but returns in Pokémon Card Game DP.

A new part of some Pokémon cards is attacks that require no Energy. These are attacks that a Pokémon can use even when it has no Energy cards attached to it. These attacks are usually weak, and can be used at all times. They are present in Basic Pokémon such as [[Turtwig]], [[Piplup]] and [[Chimchar]].

The main change in the format of the cards is a change in Weakness and Resistance. These are now variable, and change depending on the card. Instead of Weakness doing double damage, it may cause the Pokémon to deal 10, 20 or maybe even 30 more damage. Resistance has changed from removing a fixed 30 damage, and now varies in the same way that Weakness does. However, some Pokémon do still carry a Weakness of “x2” and a Resistance of “-30”.

==New and Modified Rules==
Several new rules have been introduced to the Pokémon Trading Card Game with the release of Pokémon Card Game DP. Please note that these new rules do not apply to territories outside of Japan.
*The player making the first turn of the game is now required to draw a card.
*They are not allowed to play any Trainer cards, Supporter cards or Stadium cards (this includes subtypes such as Pokémon Tools).
*Fossil cards cannot be played during the game’s first turn (but can be put on the bench during the setup phase before the first turn begins), and Knocking Out a Fossil card counts as an official KO - therefore the opposing player now draws one Prize card. However, a Prize card is not drawn if the player chooses to discard the Fossil card.
*Pokémon from the EX Series follow the same rules for Weakness and Resistance - double and subtract 30 respectively.
*Darkness Energy and Metal Energy now appear as basic Energy cards, and so any number may appear in a deck. Special and basic Energy of the same card can go in the same deck, but when using a 30-card deck you are now limited to just two of the same Special Energy card.
*Pokémon can only be Levelled Up (i.e. a Pokémon Level X can only be played) if that Pokémon is Active. Benched Pokémon cannot be Levelled Up.

==Set Lists==
===Japanese Set List===
The Japanese set list for Pokémon Card Game DP uses a new numbering system, which is a modified version of the [[List of Pokémon|National Pokédex order]] seen in [[Pokémon Diamond and Pearl|''Pokémon Diamond'' and ''Pearl'']]. For example, in the National Pokédex used in the games, [[Pichu]] is #172, [[Pikachu]] is #25 and [[Raichu]] is #26. However (and the following goes for all similar to Pichu, such as [[Wynaut]], [[Jibacoil]], [[Blissey]] etc), for the new numbering, Pichu has been moved down to #25, and Pikachu and Raichu move up to #26 and #27. (Please note that Pichu, Pikachu, Raichu and Blissey have not been released in this set.)

Pokémon Card Game DP in Japan contains 107 Pokémon cards:
