About Dragon Blade
What Dragon Blade is
Dragon Blade is one half of the fifth expansion block of the Japanese BW era, released on March 16, 2012 alongside its partner Dragon Blast, with 55 cards in each. It has 50 cards in the numbered set plus 5 secret prints, 55 in total. The two sets, with the Hydreigon and Garchomp Half Decks, became the English Dragons Exalted of August 15, 2012, released in the Year of the Dragon with 124 cards plus secrets. Dragon Blade carries Rayquaza EX 37 as its headline Pokémon-EX, with the full art Ho-Oh EX 51, Registeel EX 52 and Rayquaza EX 53 and the secret Serperior 54 and Krookodile 55 above the numbered set. Dragon type Pokémon returned in this block, using Energy of other types since no Dragon Energy exists, and the first print run carries a 1st Edition mark.
What makes Dragon Blade different
- Rayquaza EX and Ho-Oh EX The full art Rayquaza EX 53 is the most valuable card in the set in PSA 10 in both its unlimited and 1st Edition prints, with the full art Ho-Oh EX 51 next in both prints.
- Secret Serperior and Krookodile The 1st Edition Serperior 54 and Krookodile 55 rank in the set's top six in PSA 10, with the Magmortar 8 holofoil and the regular Rayquaza EX 37 behind.
