Release date, card count, chase cards and how it compares with the Black & White era.
Plasma Freeze sits late in the Black & White era of the English-language Pokémon TCG, an expansion released on May 8, 2013 under the set code PLF. It follows Plasma Storm and comes before Plasma Blast. The card list runs to 116 official cards plus 6 secret cards numbered above that count, for 122 printings in all. The set gives several names more than one version, among them Bisharp, Cofagrigus, Deino, Deoxys-EX and Eevee, and its headline cards are the Secret Rare Ultra Ball and Garchomp alongside the Ultra Rare Deoxys-EX. Psychic, Darkness, Water and Colorless Pokémon make up its main types.
The Plasma Freeze pull ladder climbs from Common and Uncommon through 44 Rare cards to 14 chase-tier cards: 8 Ultra Rares and 6 Secret Rares, the latter numbered past the printed 116. The Secret Rare Ultra Ball leads the most valuable cards, followed by the Secret Rare Garchomp, the Ultra Rare Deoxys-EX and the Secret Rare Empoleon. Illustrator 5ban Graphics drew the Ultra Ball and Deoxys-EX and is the most credited artist across the set with 39 cards. Value is tightly concentrated, since the top five cards alone hold 67 percent of the set's total card value.

Completing Plasma Freeze means tracking 122 printings, of which 119 are priced. Because the top five cards hold such a large share of the value, the cost of a complete set is driven mostly by the Secret Rares and a few Ultra Rares, while the Common, Uncommon and Rare cards fill out the rest of the run. The sealed line has 5 products, mainly booster packs and decks along with a booster box.
