Collector Insights

Volcanion is a Fire-type Pokémon with 130 HP, featured in the XY series as part of the XY Black Star Promos set. Released on October 12, 2013, it is a Promo rarity card designed by artist TOKIYA. The card’s flavor text describes a Pokémon that expels internal steam from its back and possesses immense power capable of eradicating mountains. Volcanion has no resistances but is weak to Water-type attacks, which deal double damage. Its retreat cost requires four Colorless Energy, and it lacks any defensive abilities. The card includes two attacks: Concentrated Fire, which uses Fire and two Colorless Energy to deal 50× damage based on coin flips, and Combustion Impact, a four Colorless Energy move that forces the opponent to switch their Active Pokémon with a Benched one. Volcanion’s design and mechanics align with its thematic connection to volcanic power and explosive capabilities.

It expels its internal steam from the arms on its back. It has enough power to blow away a mountain.
