Save almost $5 on the Pokémon TCG Black Bolt Booster Bundle at TCGplayer

SAVE $4.98: As of Sept. 23, the Pokémon TCG Black Bolt Booster Bundle is $53.97 at TCGplayer, compared to $58.99 at Amazon.

Pokémania 2025 is in full effect, and big box stores are more than happy to take advantage of it. Yes, there’s bargains to be had sometimes, but more often than not products are priced well over their secondary market value.

Luckily, we have TCGplayer. The Black Bolt booster bundle is currently $4.98 less at $53.97. Amazon is currently charging $58.99, and your hard earned money is better in your pocket. At a time where Pokémon TCG product is selling over MSRP whilst it’s still in print, getting market value pricing is the next best thing.

Black Bolt and White Flare naturally has every Unovan Pokémon ready to go in Illustration Rares, Special Art Rares, and Pokéball/Masterball variants. I really wouldn’t recommend getting a complete set of Black Bolt and White Flare, but this dual set is a collectors dream with all the stunning artwork on display. Black Bolt is coming in more expensive in both sealed product and single cards, mostly thanks to Victini ex and Zekrom ex Black Bolt and White Flare rares. They’re commanding prices of over $400 at the moment, so that’s that mystery solved.

Black Bolt and White Flare marks the end of the Scarlet and Violet era, but it’s also kicking off a trend of dual set releases. Of course I’m talking about the return of Mega Evolution in the highly anticipated Mega Evolution era and it’s first expansion Phantasmal Flames. At first I was worried about more fluff cards being shoved into the meta, but it’s straight up bigger sets with more Illustration and Secret Illustrations rares.

I don’t know about you, but that’s OK in my book and even better for my display wall (I need more walls).

Most valuable Black Bolt and White Flare Pokémon cards

The values on Black Bolt and White Rare chase cards might see astronomical, but it will likely end up being a lot cheaper to just buy the cards you want. If you pull a Victini ex Black White rare in a booster bundle, I’d be super jealous and you’d be incredibly lucky. TCGplayer is a good place to shop for single cards, making sure they’re near mint and having enough background on value history are essential for Pokémon card collecting in 2025.
