The most valuable black bolt English Pokemon TCG cards

The release of the English versions of White Flare and Black Bolt marks an important moment for Pokemon TCG, with each of Unovas 156 Pokemon emphasized with illustration rares and special illustration rares. While these sets mainly reflect their Japanese versions, another exclusive black white rare was added to both sets: Victini.

Black White Rares has briefly soaked in the motif's main color palette, with Zekroms completely black cards which are also shown among the best cards in Black Bolt. The most valuable cards in Black Bolt Mirror are similar to concepts like White Flares most expensive cards, but have darker motifs.

Cards are ordered according to their TCGplayer market prices, which can change and volatility over time. Some cards without market price were not included.

Meloetta Ex (Special Illustration Rare) – $ 54.82

A soft start

Meloetta makes a statement with one of this Pokemon's most visually detailed card ever, at a relatively good price considering how much some of the other best Black Bolt card commands. Meloetta is Black Bolt's response to Keldeo, and although both Pokémon is popular and boasts with bright works of art, they will not come under surprising competition.

Unlike the Jellicent from White Flare, Pokémon, who jumps in front of Meloetta's fixed value, is most of his appearance to the illustrator.

Seismitoad (illustration rare) – $ 69.24

Shinji's golden touch

Shinji Kanda has made a name as one of the most talented artists in Pokemon TCG, as he adds this card to an impressive CV that includes Giratina V art from Lost Origin and Magicarp illustration rare from Paldea.

While seismitoad is not anywhere as popular as these Pokémon, this artwork reminds of the magneton promo from switching sparks, with an equally light background to make this card to pop. Whether you love the design or are a Kanda collector, this card is a tempting alternative, even at the high price.

6

Genesect Ex (Special Illustration Rare) – $ 78.05

Real G's movement in silence

Genesect is without doubt its coolest artwork yet, which could see this card take a permanent place among Genesect's most valuable cards. Genesect's machine page shines here, as the bug and steel type Pokemon seem to come out of a mounting line in a factory, or something similar.

The cold, mechanical background Meshes well with the fiery red glow that shines through the door and gives the perfect cloth for Genesect to shine like the star in this subtle show.

5

Kyurem Ex (Special Illustration Rare) – $ 92.15

Icy as 1017

Kyurem climbs against the triple figures on the back of one of Pokemon's most detailed depictions yet. If its icy wings were not cold enough, the frozen cave around Kyurem gives lots of light color and an impressive amount of details to this special illustration rare.

The screen on the icicles communicates Kyurem's dangerous nature, and the epic positor gives this card everything it needs to challenge the most valuable Black Bolt cards.

4

N's Plan (Special Illustration Rare) – $ 121.95

He finely gave down the Victory Road

N's collection of valuable cards continues to grow thanks to this fantastic close -up of one of Unova's most iconic characters. Even if you did not already know and love N, this cards perfectly capture the coach's calm behavior and radiate good vibes on the back of the light lamps in the background.

A closer look reveals a Ferris wheel in the background, which is a smart reference to one of N's first performances in Pokemon Black & White Video Games.

3

Zecrome Ex (Special Illustration Rare) – $ 310.00

Go out

Zecom's soil -peeling special illustration does not need superlative or in -depth analysis to explain how wonderful this card is. Pokemon is surrounded by lightning bolts that crash into the surrounding soil as it sinks down to the ground.

Apart from Aura Farming Zekrom is busy here, this briefly surpasses the competition with an unmatched level of detail and without doubt one of the coolest poses in Pokemon TCG history.

2

Victini (Black White Rare) – $ 376.83

Red as 2012

Victini may have caught the crown in white flare, but it avoids the heights it reached in that set, as there is another black white rare that rises above. The all -red background works surprisingly well for Victini and does not completely overwhelm Pokémon, although it is not very distinct either.

If you love the all -red design, this card is a must for you, as it will probably not be imitated or duplicated at any time soon. Although it is likely that this card's price will switch dramatically, it is equally likely that Victini will remain among the best cards from Black Bolt.

1

Zecrome Ex (Black White Rare) – $ 462.00

Black cards, black clothes

Zecrom claims the crown again, as it did in the Japanese version of Black Bolt, with this black white rare with a noticeably higher price tag than the completely white reshiram from white flare. While Reshiram's card did a good job with lighting, this card's black background forced another method, as Zekrom's black is a noticeably different shade than the background.

This was a necessary change to prevent the card from being completely black, but it makes this Pokémon seem much more distinct, may contribute to its superior valuation.
