Inferno X Set Release Details Announced! Featuring Mega Charizard X

According to a recent article from PokeBeach, the Inferno X set will be releasing on September 26th in Japan. This set is set to feature Mega Charizard X, and follows the Mega Brave and Mega Symphonia sets, which showcases Mega Lucario ex and Mega Gardevoir ex (releasing August 1st). 

The current timeline for the Japanese sets is the following:

  • June 6th: Black Bolt and White Flare
  • August 1st: Mega Brave and Mega Symphonia
  • September 5th: Starter Set Mega Genger ex and Starter Set Mega Diancie ex
  • September 26th: Inferno X

The last time we saw Mega Charizard ex was back in 2016, so I'm expecting the hype for this set to be quite something, especially as collectors and PokeInvestor bros sit out in the sweltering heat in front of GameStops for a chance to cop a single item. 

I am also expecting the Pokemon Center website to be swarmed as well, so the momentum will definitely be there as we move on from the Scarlet and Violet TCG series to revisiting Mega Evolutions once again, which I am totally down for. 

I foresee the momentum continuing to build as we inch closer to Gen 10, but until then, I expect it's going to be rather difficult to attain a lot of these items for several months after release, especially when there is a 6 month delay between release and full on production where it's easier to obtain these items. 

Until then, we still have to look forward to Destined Rivals and Black Bolt and White Flare sets to cap off the Scarlet and Violet series.
