New Pokemon Card Set Leaked for North America, Coming Later This Year

by

After the launches of Black Bolt and White Flare this month, collectors of the Pokemon Trading Card Game can enjoy a brief respite until September. On September 26th, the Mega Evolution set will be released in English, reintroducing the main theme. Although it’s still some time off, it appears we already know what awaits us afterward. A new report has revealed both the release date and title of the subsequent English TCG set, and we even have a fair idea of which Japanese cards will be translated when it arrives.

As a passionate gamer eagerly waiting for new additions to my Pokémon TCG collection, I’m thrilled about the upcoming release of the Phantasmal Flames set in North America on November 14th. Based on what’s been announced for Japan, it looks like this set might include cards from their Inferno X expansion, which seems to have a strong emphasis on Mega Charizard. Additionally, we can expect cards related to Mega Gengar and Mega Diancie decks.

However, it’s crucial to remember that these assumptions are coming from PokeBeach, so the exact contents of the set remain speculative until an official announcement is made. Fingers crossed for some amazing new cards!

The release date of November 14th indicates that Phantasmal Flames will be the first Pokemon TCG collection released after Pokemon Legends: Z-A. There’s a possibility that some Mega Evolutions from the game could show up in Phantasmal Flames, such as the recently unveiled Mega Dragonite. However, it’s uncertain at this point, but considering Mega Evolution has been absent in both the main games and TCG for quite some time, it’s likely we’ll see a significant focus on these transformations in the upcoming collections, including both older ones from previous games and new ones.

Just as with any unconfirmed news, it’s wise to approach these details cautiously until The Pokemon Company officially confirms them. However, PokeBeach has built a reputation for being a trustworthy source when it comes to updates on the Pokémon Trading Card Game. Moreover, “Phantasmal Flames” seems fitting for a set that might include Mega Gengar and Mega Charizard X, as it appears to be a name that could resonate in North America.

There’s uncertainty about whether Phantasmal Flames will be the last Pokemon TCG set released in North America in 2025, but considering the typical schedule, it seems likely. Given the struggles collectors have faced in obtaining the already-released sets, a break could bring some holiday cheer. As for next year, being the 30th anniversary of the franchise, we can expect some exciting developments to look forward to.
