    In the interest of maintaining a healthy tournament environment, Pokémon Organized Play removes older sets from the Modified format at the beginning of each new tournament season. Each rotation challenges existing players to create new strategies while allowing new players to get into organized play with a minimum investment.

    Cards from the following sets are legal in the Modified Format (EX Holon Phantoms onwards):

    EX Holon Phantoms
    EX Crystal Guardians
    EX Dragon Frontiers
    EX Power Keepers
    Diamond & Pearl
    Diamond & Pearl - Mysterious Treasures
    Diamond & Pearl - Secret Wonders
    Diamond & Pearl - Great Encounters
    Diamond & Pearl - Majestic Dawn
    Diamond & Pearl Trainer Kit
    POP Series 4 Promo Cards
    POP Series 5 Promo Cards
    POP Series 6 Promo Cards
    POP Series 7 Promo Cards
    All Black Star Promo Cards numbered 037-040 and DP01 & higher

    In addition, future Pokémon USA, Inc., releases will become legal as they are released, per the Pokémon Organized Play Tournament Rules.

    The rotation (known as Modified Format) only officially applies in sanctioned tournaments, but if you plan to play in those, you should use it whenever you play.
