Black Bolt overview

Black Bolt sits late in the Scarlet & Violet era of the English-language Pokémon TCG, released on July 17, 2025 as an expansion under the set code BLK. It carries 86 official cards, with another 86 secret cards numbered above that count, for 172 printings in all. The set leans on Unova, and its Water, Grass, Psychic and Fighting types back up that identity. Zekrom ex appears in four versions, while Excadrill ex, Genesect ex, Kyurem ex and Meloetta ex each appear three times. Victini and Zekrom ex lead the card list by value.

Black Bolt chase cards and rarities

Black Bolt's rarity ladder runs from commons and uncommons up to 90 chase-tier cards, and because the secret cards double the printed 86, most of those chase cards sit above the official count. Illustration rares make up the bulk, with special illustration rares, ultra rares and double rares above them. The most valuable cards are Victini and Zekrom ex in Black White Rare, then the special illustration rare Zekrom ex, the illustration rare Seismitoad and the special illustration rare Kyurem ex. Victini is illustrated by 5ban Graphics. The top five cards hold 54 percent of the set's total card value.
