Overview
Triumphant, released November 3, 2010, is the fourth HGSS expansion with 103 cards. It brought together the creation duo of Palkia & Dialga as a LEGEND pair and introduced competitively impactful cards like Celebi Prime and Magnezone Prime. The set is considered one of the most competitively significant HGSS expansions.
Best for
- People bridging EX into DP checklist habits
- collectors pricing Triumphant (2010, 103 cards) as DP / Platinum era cardboard — not as generic “old cards”
- anyone specifically hunting Gengar Prime / Celebi Prime and needing the rest of the set for context
Skip this path if
- you only shop modern illustration rares and will not learn DP numbering
- you expect every card in Triumphant to carry similar resale (bulk is bulk)
Common mistakes
Collectors mishandle Triumphant by missing LV.X / Prime-adjacent premiums while overpaying random holos. Gengar Prime / Celebi Prime still does most of the economic work inside a 103-card list — do not price bulk like hits. Listings labeled only “DP / Platinum era” are not a SKU: match set code hgss4 (2010) before you match the art.
What to check first
Start with condition on textured or heavy-foil cards before grade talk. Then inspect Gengar Prime / Celebi Prime under real light before anyone says “NM” or grade. Gap the rest with the Triumphant checklist; sealed product does not replace the expensive row.
Most valuable cards
Palkia & Dialga LEGEND (top #101 / bottom #102) is the marquee duo. Celebi Prime (#92) saw heavy competitive play. Magnezone Prime (#96) was a dominant force in tournament decks. Gengar Prime (#94) is a fan-favorite collector card. Absol Prime and Machamp Prime are also valued.
