About Phantasmal Flames

A Mega Evolution series set featuring Mega Charizard X ex. Released on 14 November 2025, it belongs to the Scarlet & Violet era. It is a recent set, so sealed product is still being printed and sold in shops.

Phantasmal Flames has 94 cards in its main numbering, plus 36 secret rares numbered beyond it.

The cards a Phantasmal Flames Elite Trainer Box can hold

The Phantasmal Flames cards collectors most want to pull are Mega Charizard X ex. 9 packs is a modest number of tries, so most ETBs are bought to collect or keep sealed rather than to chase one card.

Our catalogue lists the set's rarest tiers as 1 Mega Hyper Rare, 5 Special Illustration Rares and 13 Illustration Rares. Prices for every card are on the Phantasmal Flames set page.

Is the Phantasmal Flames Elite Trainer Box a good investment?

Modern sealed product is printed in large numbers and is often reprinted, so Phantasmal Flames elite trainer boxes can stay flat or fall for years before supply dries up. ETBs are popular to keep sealed because of their box art, but they take more space than they hold in packs. Watch the price of Mega Charizard X ex, the set's headline card, since sealed Phantasmal Flames tends to move with it.

None of this is financial advice: sealed prices can fall as well as rise. Our guide should you buy sealed Pokémon products? weighs up both sides.

Before you buy

Look closely at the wrapping in the photos. Factory wrap on elite trainer boxes has neat seams, often with Pokémon logos printed on it; baggy, shiny or uneven wrap is a common sign of a reseal. For a Phantasmal Flames Elite Trainer Box at around €176.63, ask the seller for photos of all sides and stick to accounts with plenty of positive feedback. Check the listing photos show the ETB itself and not only the packs, and that it is the standard version rather than a Pokémon Center one if you are comparing prices. Compare the total with delivery, not just the price, and store sealed product flat, out of sunlight and away from damp.
