Expansion Set Abbreviations

[brinkx69]

Sorry if this question is answered somewhere already, but I have spent hours trying to figure this out.

I looked at the "Full List of TCG Resources & Guides (Read Before You Post!)" thread, I've looked on Bulbapedia (there is an expansion deck list, but not the abbreviations I see everyone using), I've done a Google search, etc., etc.

Anyway, my question. I see people use three letter abbreviations after card names to represent which expansion set they come from ("ROS" for example; Roaring Skies). Can someone tell me where I can find the list for these three letter abbreviations that I should be using when posting Deck lists and the like?

And just so I can update my deck list quickly, what is the three letter abbreviation for "Dragons Exalted" (but obviously the full list would be best ?

Here's a list going back to Black & White base. If you need more let me know.

Roaring Skies = ROS
Double Crisis = DCR
Primal Clash = PRC
Phantom Forces = PHF
Furious Fists = FFI
Flashfire= FLF
XY = XY
Kalos Starter Set = KSS
Legendary Treasures = LTR
Plasma Blast = PLB
Plasma Freeze = PLF
Plasma Storm = PLS
Boundaries Crossed = BCR
Dragon Vault = DRV
Dragons Exalted = DRX
Dark Explorers = DEX
Next Destinies = NXD
Noble Victories = NVI
Emerging Powers = EPO
Black & White = BLW or B&W

I think I got'em all. The reason we use 3 letters is to avoid repeat abbreviations, like between Dark Explorers and Dragons Exalted.

We ought to add the set symbols (and Type symbols) to the Emotes gallery, would make for an interesting alrenate way to refer to the packs besides abbriations

Purrloin thanks sooooo much for the hook up! Very helpful indeed as I was starting to pull my hair out trying to find these. Thanks again greatly! I imagine this will help others as well.

I remember we used to have the type symbols as emojis way back when. If you'd really like to see this happen, you should definitely mention it in the suggestions thread (found here) or PM Shining Raikou.
