Blacephalon GX Card Facts & History
5 facts about this card
In-Game
Blacephalon was introduced in Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon as a Fire/Ghost Ultra Beast, and in the Alola games it serves as the version-exclusive counterpart to Stakataka, giving this card a strong tie to late-era Generation VII mystery and rarity.
Card History
In the Sun & Moon anime, Blacephalon made its debut in "Twirling with a Bang!" by dazzling everyone during a fireworks show before the Ultra Guardians revealed it was an Ultra Beast and sent it back through an Ultra Wormhole.
Card History
This card’s Mind Blown attack is a perfect TCG adaptation of Blacephalon’s signature move, and Bulbapedia notes that Blacephalon is the only Ultra Beast with a signature move at all.
Set Lore
Blacephalon-GX was one of the headline Pokémon-GX cards spotlighted for Sun & Moon—Lost Thunder, a set officially released on November 2, 2018, which helps explain why its rainbow secret rare feels like one of the expansion’s true chase-piece Ultra Beasts.
Artist
The rainbow secret rare finish turns 5ban Graphics’ already explosive Ultra Beast design into a full-spectrum collector piece, making this version feel especially fitting for a Pokémon literally known as the Fireworks Pokémon.
