Ruler of the Black Flame SV3 Booster Pack (JP)

Product Type / Ruler of the Black Flame: Pokemon Scarlet and Violet Booster Pack

Meet the Ruler of the Black Flame

A brand-new Charizard ex emerges from Ruler of the Black Flame as a menacing Darkness-type Pokémon, a tactful nod back to Charizard Gold Star from Generation 3. This Stage 2 evolution comes with a great ability and a strong attack as well. 

The [Infernal Reign] Ability highlights Charizard ex's versatility, letting you search your deck for up to three Basic Fire Energy cards to attach to your Pokémon in any way you like. This excellent Energy acceleration empowers Charizard ex and other fire types that are ready to launch off strong attacks. And because this acceleration can be applied to any of your Pokémon, this can be used to set up Charizard ex itself or just use it as a support to help set up other attackers.

One Pokémon that you can set up is the other Charizard ex from Pokémon Card 151 (June 2023) that needs 4 Fire Energy to use it’s [Explosive Vortex] attack. Since these Pokémon are both from the same Evolution line, they can be fit into the same deck with relative ease. Tera Charizard ex also has a weakness to Grass-type attacks, which is another advantage to playing the Fire-type Charizard ex as this excellently covers its weakness.

Tera Charizard ex also has the incredibly strong [Burning Darkness] attack, which costs two Fire Energy - an easy accomplishment for such a strong Ability - dealing a base damage of 180. However, its true potency lies in its potential to get stronger as the game progresses. For every Prize card your opponent has claimed, the attack deals an additional 30 damage, making it increasingly devastating as the game goes on. And with 330 HP and the Tera Rule, Charizard ex is protected from Bench damage. This is sure to cause your opponent problems the longer the game goes on! Get your hands on Ruler of the Black Flame! Ruler of the Black Flame is the Japanese version of the English Obsidian Flames.
