SAVE OVER $5: As of Oct. 17, the Pokémon TCG Black Bolt Binder Collection is $50.89 at TCGPlayer, compared to $55.94 at Amazon.
Every Unovan Pokémon from the fifth generation of Pokémon games (Black and White 1 and 2) either has an Illustration Rare, Special Illustration Rare, or a ridiculously rare Black White Rare. My 10-year old Pokémon League-rocking self wouldn’t believe what I was seeing with so much stunning artwork in one set.
Black Bolt and White Flare is a stunning end to the Scarlet and Violet Pokémon TCG era. Everyone has their eyes on Mega Evolution / Phantasmal Flames, but I’m focusing on Black Bolt and White Flare right now, which has some of the highest value cards in the Scarlet and Violet era (more on that below).
In this Black Bolt Binder Collection trainer will find a Zekrom-themed soft binder with six pockets on each page with five booster packs. It’s a cheap and cheerful way to start collecting the set in style.

If you’re looking to collect the higher-end cards of this set, all the luck in the world to you. The problem is the top chase cards are rarer than usual due to how many Illustration Rare cards are in Black Bolt and White Flare, so it might work out cheaper to just buy the single Pokémon cards you’d like. Here’s the top chase cards in Black Bolt and White Flare to get you started:
