About Red Flash
What Red Flash is
Red Flash is one half of the first expansion block of the XY BREAK era in Japan, released on September 26, 2015 alongside Blue Shock. It has 59 numbered cards plus 6 secret rares for 65 in total, and the two halves share a single card. The block introduced Pokémon BREAK, gold evolution cards placed sideways over a Pokémon to add HP and a new attack or Ability while keeping everything underneath. Red Flash is the Mewtwo side built around Mega Mewtwo Y, with M Mewtwo EX, Mewtwo EX, M Houndoom EX and Houndoom EX in full art and Giovanni's Scheme as a full art Supporter. The English BREAKthrough of November 4, 2015 combined both halves into 164 cards.
What makes Red Flash different
- Pokémon BREAK debut The sideways gold BREAK cards began with this block, and Chesnaught BREAK is the leading regular card in the hub.
- Mewtwo in three prints M Mewtwo EX and Mewtwo EX appear as full arts and a secret rare, and all three sit in the top five of the hub with 1st Edition copies ranked above unlimited.
