About Phantom Forces
What Phantom Forces is
Phantom Forces is the fourth main expansion of the XY Series, released in English on November 5, 2014 and built from the Japanese Phantom Gate of September 13, 2014. It has 119 cards in the numbered set plus 3 secret rares, 122 in total, built around the Shadow Pokémon Gengar, with Gengar EX 34 and M Gengar EX 35 leading eight Pokémon-EX.
The full arts run from Manectric EX 113 to Florges EX 116, followed by the Supporters AZ 117, Lysandre's Trump Card 118 and Xerosic 119, and the secret rares are the gold M Manectric EX 120, M Gengar EX 121 and Dialga EX 122. The set introduced Spirit Link, Pokémon Tool cards that let a Pokémon Mega Evolve without ending the turn, and carries a light Team Flare theme with Team Flare Gear Items and Team Flare Hyper Gear Tools.
What makes Phantom Forces different
- The Gengar EX full art Gengar EX 114 is the most valuable card in the set in PSA 10 by a wide margin, with the secret rare Dialga EX 122 and M Gengar EX 121 behind it.
- Spirit Link Phantom Forces introduced the Spirit Link Tools that made Mega Evolution playable without losing the turn, and Gengar Spirit Link 95 also exists as a Sheen Holofoil from its own 2-pack.
- Team Flare Hyper Gear The two Team Flare Hyper Gear cards are unique Tools that attach to the opponent's Pokémon to hinder them, and the Team Flare Supporters AZ 117, Lysandre's Trump Card 118 and Xerosic 119 close the full art run.
How Phantom Forces arrived
Phantom Gate released in Japan on September 13, 2014, and the English Phantom Forces followed on November 5, 2014, twelve weeks after Furious Fists on August 13, 2014 and thirteen weeks before Primal Clash on February 4, 2015. It launched with the Burning Winds and Bolt Twister Theme Decks, an Elite Trainer Box, four blisters and a Launch Kit for shops, and three card Mini Packs sold for a dollar at Dollar Tree from mid December 2014.
