A Legendary Duo Returns to Headline the Set

The Pokémon TCG is unleashing a full-blown celebration of Generation V with Black Bolt and White Flare, a double-set juggernaut landing in Japan on 6 June 2025 and internationally on 18 July 2025. The dual expansion Black Bolt [SV11B] and White Flare [SV11W] is bringing back every Gen V Pokémon—156 in total—each with not just one, but at least one version of Art Rare (AR) or rarer. This is no regular set—it’s a celebration, a beast of a box, and a wild pull ride all in one.

Packed with powerhouses like Zekrom ex and Reshiram ex as well as fan-favorite Trainers—and even a dazzling new rarity—this expansion is already shaping into the ultimate Unova tribute.

While some veteran collectors may side-eye the sheer size of this card mega-drop (rumors say up to 800 unique printings across rarities), there’s no denying it’s a collector’s goldmine—especially with a new rarity, fresh foiling, and some fan-favorite faces returning in stunning alternate-art form.

What Makes the Black Bolt & White Flare Dual Set So Special?

• Full Unova Dex: Every Pokémon from Gen V is featured.

• Multiple Rarities & Parallels: Expect 5–6+ versions of each card—Regular, Reverse Holo, Poké Ball Mirror, Master Ball Mirror, Illustration Rare (AR/SR/UR/SAR), and the new rarity of Black & White Rare (BWR). At least one Art Rare (AR) or higher for every card.

• Full Art Character Cards: Fan-favorite characters like N, Cheren, and Hilda are expected to return in glorious Special Art Rares (SARs).

• New Rarity Debuts: BWR—Black & White Rare—debuts with ultra-luxurious designs with embossed textures, currently headlined by Reshiram ex and Zekrom ex.

• Estimated chase card pool: 460+

• Product type: Special Collection (No booster packs in the international version. Products only via boxes, ETBs, and limited lotteries)

What’s in a Black Bolt & White Flare Box?

Based on previous sets of similar structure, every booster box is expected to contain:

  • 1 × SAR, SR, or UR per box
  • 3 × AR
  • 4 × RR
  • Occasional “double-hit” boxes may contain 2 SAR/SR/URs
  • BWR rarity has extremely low pull rates, considered chase cards even beyond SARs
