Prepare for another frenzi✅ed rush to grab the latest Pokemo🌠n TCG set, because a new split expansion is on the way this July.

Rather than fans scrambling to get a sin💃gular line of products, they may need to double their efforts for the next Pokemon TCG expansion because it will be divided into two - Black Bolt and White Flare. Both will launch July 18, 2025, and are supported by a range of products that revolve around the Unova region seen in the Black & White video games (alongside Scarlet & Violet's Indigo Disk DLC).

Unsurprisingly, this means that this addition to one of the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:best card games will focus on the 156 Pokemon from the Unova region - think Snivy, Pansear, Tepig and other Gen 5 creatures. As noted in the press release, these Pokemon will also appear as an "illustration rare or special illustration rare style c🔯ard found in Scarlet & Violet - Black Bolt or Scarlet & Violet - White Flare associated products." In addition, there are variations between each set for:

• Six Pokémon ex
• Eight ultra rare Pokemon and Supporter cards
• One illustration rare or special illustration rare card for each Unova Pokemon
• One special illustration rare Supporter card

Just like in the video games, both versions will champion a different Legendary Pokemon; Black Bolt features🦂 Zekrom, while White Flare has Reshiram. Boosting this sense of nostalgia are foil pattern and Basic Energy cards with Black & White designs.

Speaking of which, thisꦆ split expansion brings some fancy effects with it - namely stylized Black White rare cards with a monochromatic design. When coupled with three different parallel foil sets, it feels as if this is a collector's dream.

Or nightmare, if the current situation continues. It's been notoriously hard to get 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Destined Rivals stock or 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Prismatic Evolutions stock, and the promise of hard-to-find content for Black Bolt and White Flare promises a similar rush. All we can hope is that 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:The Pokemon Company's promise of "maximizing production" for new Trading Card Game expa𒉰nsions holds true.
