Black Bolt and White Flare
Pokémon special set Black Bolt and White Flare cycle Scarlet and Violet. The first product is expected on July 18, 2025. This is a very unusual release - two separate but related sets released simultaneously. It is the first set to be named the same as its Japanese version.
Each of the 156 Unova Pokémon will be available in Common, Uncommon, Reverse Holo, Poke Ball Reverse Holo, Master Ball Reverse Holo, Illustration Rare, or Special Illustration Rare. This means that the entire collection will have over 800 cards.
Like the other special sets, it also offers a special treatment of the cards - Black White Rare, i.e. a monochrome treatment in a black and white design.
In this special set you can look forward to the following products coming out:
- July 18, 2025: Black Bolt or White Flare Elite Trainer Box, Black Bolt or White Flare Binder Collection, Unova Poster Collection, Unova Mini Tin
- August 1, 2025: Black Bolt or White Flare Tech Sticker Collection, Unova Victini Illustration Collection
- 22 August 2025: Black Bolt or White Flare Booster Bundle
Did you know what complementary or special sets mean?
Special sets (or subsets, holiday edition or half edition) are additional sets of cards (e.g. Prismatic Evolutions, Pokémon 151 Card, Paldean Fates, ...) that are released outside of the main editions (e.g. Journey Together, Destined Rivals, Paldea Evolved, ...). They are designed to bring something special - unique design, thematic focus, or exclusive reprints.
