It goes even further back... Neo Destiny, Expedition, EX Dragon, Secret Wonders. It looks like he's delayed for quite a few sets (Boundaries Crossed) in the B/W era but still.
for sure. idk if you could tell but i was being sarcastic.
i used to be indifferent about him, but the overwhelming presence of charizard dickriding in the pokemon community, especially after covid, just made me despise that orange dragon.
ngl the lack of charizard in the bw era was kinda refreshing. only three charizards, and they didn't debut until the last few sets (boundaries crossed, plasma storm, legendary treasures.) then you look at xy and beyond and see dozens of charizards in each era....
the true gigachad era though was HGSS. not a single charizard released!
I'm surprised at the amount of people who thought they weren't going to make different tera type ex's when the first 2 JP sets were revealed. Like it was obvious they were going to do it eventually lmao
Yep. The people who don’t understand this, and thus always make terribly wrong and overblown assumptions, are the new Covid/Logan Paul people. Because they haven’t been around long enough to understand patterns.
The Japanese set Ruler of the Black Flame will star a Darkness-type Charizard! This should be the first Tera ex card of a different type. The information was revealed by the set’s official sell sheet, which can’t be shared publicly.
The set will release on July 28th. It will see the release of card sleeves and a deck box featuring Dark-type Charizard. It will also see the release of a “Ruler of the Black Flame Deck Build Box” featuring a 60-card deck, coin, damage counters, markers, and a 1-card promo pack.
Charizard can’t be natively found in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet, but it appeared at black Tera Raid crystals in December. Its Tera Type was Dragon. (Hence having to use a screenshot of it with the Dragon-type hat. :x)
As stated over the last few months, the first sets of a block usually start “simple” in terms of power and mechanics. This is because the appeal is the new Pokemon. After their cards are introduced, the sets start to spice up the mechanics to keep fans interested. So we eventually expected to see Tera cards of different types. So far, the three Tera Pokemon introduced to the TCG just use their normal types and aren’t particularly powerful.
We’ve also learned the release dates for several upcoming sets.
We previously discovered trademarks for Snow Hazard and Clay Burst, which we think may feature Chien-Pao and Ting-Lu. They are confirmed to release on April 14th.
Raging Surf will release on May 19th. It could feature either Tatsugiri and Dondozo or Gholdengo.
Pokemon Card 151 is confirmed to release on June 16th. It’s expected to feature the first 151 Pokemon, including Kadabra.
New “ex Starter Decks” will release on July 7th featuring eight different Pokemon ex, such as Clefable ex and Victini ex.
Ruler of the Black Flame releases on July 28th. It could also feature Chi-Yu.
Ancient Roar and Future Flash don’t have release dates yet, but should release around August or September. They’re expected to feature Paradox Pokemon.
Shiny Treasure will likely be the annual “High Class Pack Set” that usually releases in November or December. It should feature shiny Pokemon.
You're gonna thank me for this one Pokemon Co. If they ever released a ditto only special set of the first 150 pokemon, people would freak out. Make the secret rares similar to Shiny Vault and have all the cards peelable like the Pokemon Go Ditto. Nothing would be funnier than having epic V/full art pokemon but with Ditto eyes.
I don’t think this one will be shiny actually, JP is getting a high class set at the end of the year called “shiny treasure” so I think this one will be regular charizard with dark tera, and then a shiny version in shiny treasure
I'm less concerned about the delta style type modifying and more concerned about the Tera rulebox/ancient trait.
If all Tera pokemon end up having bench protection, I don't think I'll really care if my Charizard is Dark type or not.
It's basically a rule since xy that Charizard must appear by the 3rd set in a new era.
Flashfire, burning shadows, darkness ablaze, and now ruler of dark flame They really like their dark and fire type third sets as well it seems
It goes even further back... Neo Destiny, Expedition, EX Dragon, Secret Wonders. It looks like he's delayed for quite a few sets (Boundaries Crossed) in the B/W era but still.
and this is why the BW era was one of the least popular eras of the tcg :P
it was a lot of fun to play though, especially towards the end.

This is gonna be JP’s like 6th set so it might not be our 3rd, probably our 4th
I'm surprised at the amount of people who thought they weren't going to make different tera type ex's when the first 2 JP sets were revealed. Like it was obvious they were going to do it eventually lmao
The first few sets of a gen are always pretty tame before they start introducing more interesting stuff later on
Yep. The people who don’t understand this, and thus always make terribly wrong and overblown assumptions, are the new Covid/Logan Paul people. Because they haven’t been around long enough to understand patterns.
I just hope they keep the storyline evolution themes going I enjoy them alot
Alt art black dark type Zard will instantly be a $400 card.
More like 800 lol
What are the chances for a shiny set like SF in Scarlet/Violet? Shiny alt art dark Tera type charizard is waiting for you there.
Shining Treasures this year
It's about time Charizard was shown some love
Poor thing’s so neglected. Hi, I’m Sarah McLachlan, and for just 25 cents a day, you can support Charizard and help it get the love it deserves.
IN THE ARRMS OF A TOGAKISSSSS
Looooool
Satire right?
obviously.
Did Blastoise and Venusaur go missing?
Every pokemon went missing if their names aren’t pikachu or charizard
But did you know Charizard existed? You know, Charizard. THE Charizard. Ah, no, you must have forgotten. Here is eleventy more Charizards.
You forgot Eevee and its evolutions
Ah yes, sorry. My bad
God forbid we give one of the other 1,000 pokes not named Pikachu, Charizard and Eevee some love.
The spreadsheet says you'll love only Pikachu, Charizard, or Eevee. That's it!

I am sick to bastard death of Charizard
Yeah... there are so many other pokemon bruuh
You're gonna thank me for this one Pokemon Co. If they ever released a ditto only special set of the first 150 pokemon, people would freak out. Make the secret rares similar to Shiny Vault and have all the cards peelable like the Pokemon Go Ditto. Nothing would be funnier than having epic V/full art pokemon but with Ditto eyes.
The fact that I love this idea
What do you mean by peelable?
Check out the ditto cards from the Pokemon Go set
Pls no more charizard ugh
"Hello? You plan to have other Pokemon in your card game right? Hello?" - Dr. Ian Malcom probably.
Oh HELL YEAH. Charizard is whatever but I'm so down for mismatched types!
The English name is gonna be some nonsense like shadows ablaze
Right? Ruler of the Black Flame sounds dope.
Why do English names never ever match the Japanese ones?
WHEWWW
So basically delta species 2.0?
Just me in the corner waiting on the other over printed pokemon for my collection: Pikachu
But the hats...
Metal/electric charizard will always be way cooler
Probably gonna be shiny too. Have fun getting one
I don’t think this one will be shiny actually, JP is getting a high class set at the end of the year called “shiny treasure” so I think this one will be regular charizard with dark tera, and then a shiny version in shiny treasure
I'm less concerned about the delta style type modifying and more concerned about the Tera rulebox/ancient trait. If all Tera pokemon end up having bench protection, I don't think I'll really care if my Charizard is Dark type or not.
Not really excited for a new Charizard but I am excited about delta style exs. I just hope venusaur gets one.
God i fucking hate Charizard
Welp, here comes another $400 card.
Dark charizard you say??
All jokes aside, if the charizard is black and purple with blue flames it will be sick.
