# Zekrom ex (Japanese) #161 — SV11B: Black Bolt

## Summary

Super Rare is the top of the ladder in Black Bolt, and Zekrom ex's full-art slot is one of the set's real chase pulls for anyone hunting the Japanese edition. The black dragon fills the frame in dark, charcoal plating over a golden, crackling backdrop with electric accents. Released in Japan in June 2025, SV11B Black Bolt is one half of a paired set, and Zekrom is its headline face. The modelled guide sits at $3.39, down 9% over 30 days on 47 copies traded, with 56 days of inventory on the board; a PSA 10 brings $35, 10 times raw, but a 93% gem rate against $65 of fees makes grading a losing trade.
