(Japanese: ブラックボルト • Black Bolt)
It will be released IN JAPAN on June 6, 2025.
Black Bolt and White Flare are paired sets which are primarily based on Generation V, with cards featuring all 156 Pokémon originally introduced in the Unova region. Every single Pokémon card introduced in this expansion will have a secret rare variant of AR (Art Rare) or better. Tinsel Holofoil cards are also reintroduced with the release of these sets.
Black Bolt and White Flare also introduces a new rarity of cards called BWR (BW Rare), also known as Black White rare in the English release, which feature Pokémon against a stark solid color background with monochromatic card designs and elaborate Holofoil patterning. The only two cards introduced so far that have the BWR rarity are Zekrom ex and Reshiram ex from their respective sets.
Black Bolt and White Flare will be released in Japan on June 6, 2025. Each booster box contains 20 booster packs. There are two kinds of booster packs for each set that will be available for purchase: regular packs, which contain 7 cards, with 2 cards guaranteed to be Holofoil, while "Deluxe Packs" contain 35 cards, with 1 card guaranteed to have a rarity of AR or better.
Releasing on the same day in Japan is the Black Bolt / White Flare Card File Set (Japanese: ブラックボルト・ホワイトフレア カードファイルセット), which contains a 3-pocket card file album that can store up to 156 cards, a promo card of Victini, and 3 booster packs of Black Bolt and White Flare each.
Black Bolt and White Flare will also be released in Traditional Chinese on June 20, 2025. A Collector's Set featuring a SV-P Promotional card of Zorua will also be released on the same day.
Let our customers speak for us
I ordered multiple pre orders, and the release day of the products were weeks apart. Even though they had my Surging sparks booster boxes in hand and could have canceled due and sell at market price and make double the profit. They delivered as promised. I will definitely buy again.
Box was a lot of fun to open, lots of variety and items that people actually would want and not random items that the seller couldn’t get rid of. Opened with my brother and look forward to purchasing another one soon. (Also paid for the XL mystery box and got $230 in value, PokePlug does some of the best mystery boxes out there for sure)
