Release Date: September 26, 2025
Mega Charizard X ex takes the spotlight in Inferno X, with 094/080 SR, 110/080 SAR, and 116/080 MUR giving collectors three premium versions to look for. Dawn’s Special Art Rare, Piplup’s Art Rare, and a lineup of Mega Evolution Pokémon ex make this Japanese expansion worth exploring beyond its headline Charizard. Each Inferno X booster pack brings five cards from the Pokémon Card Game MEGA release, set code M2. Whether you’re building a Charizard page or following your favorite Pokémon through their different rarity treatments, there’s plenty here to catch your eye.
A Five-Card Pack from Japanese M2
This product is one Japanese-language Inferno X booster pack containing five randomly inserted cards. The Japanese display configuration is 30 booster packs per box. Released in Japan as インフェルノX, Inferno X belongs to the Pokémon Card Game MEGA series, and its checklist totals 116 cards, including higher-numbered rarities. The M2 code helps identify this exact Japanese expansion when browsing cards or building a binder. Its appeal stretches from Mega Evolution Pokémon ex to Trainer cards and illustration-focused rarities, so there’s more to explore than a single headline chase.
Mega Charizard X ex Across Four Rarities
Mega Charizard X ex appears in the main numbered lineup as M2 013/080 RR. Its three higher-numbered cards carry different rarity labels: 094/080 SR, 110/080 SAR, and 116/080 MUR. For a Charizard collector, that makes the card number just as important as the name when keeping track of the versions already in a collection.
The 110/080 SAR carries the Special Art Rare treatment, while 116/080 MUR fills the expansion’s single MUR slot. Alongside the RR and SR cards, they give Mega Charizard X ex four distinct entries across the set. You can enjoy Charizard as the centerpiece of Inferno X while still having several specific versions to explore, each identified by its own number and rarity.
Dawn and the Rest of the Special Art Rare Lineup
Charizard shares the six-card SAR lineup with Oricorio ex, Rotom ex, Mega Sharpedo ex, Mega Lopunny ex, and Dawn. That mix brings both Pokémon and a Trainer into the set’s Special Art Rare highlights. Dawn also has an SR card, while Mega Sharpedo ex and Mega Lopunny ex each appear in SR and SAR treatments. Here are the key cards to keep on your radar:
- Oricorio ex 111/080 SAR and Rotom ex 112/080 SAR.
- Mega Sharpedo ex 098/080 SR and 113/080 SAR.
- Mega Lopunny ex 100/080 SR and 114/080 SAR.
- Dawn 106/080 SR and 115/080 SAR.
- Mega Heracross ex 093/080 SR, Mismagius ex 097/080 SR, and Empoleon ex 099/080 SR.
Those paired SR and SAR cards are especially useful to know when collecting a favorite character: Dawn’s two cards, for example, are different versions rather than two listings for the same card. The wider SR lineup also leaves room for favorites beyond Charizard and the SAR group.
Art Rares Meet the Inferno X Battle Theme
Inferno X has 12 Art Rares, bringing another illustration-focused rarity into the mix. Four named highlights are Piplup 085/080 AR, Yamper 086/080 AR, Zacian 087/080 AR, and Flygon 088/080 AR. If one of those Pokémon is already a binder favorite, its AR gives you a specific card to look for alongside the expansion’s SR and SAR cards. It’s a welcome part of the set for collectors who enjoy Pokémon artwork as much as the Mega Evolution headline.
There’s a gameplay connection behind that headline, too. The official set presentation links Mega Charizard X ex’s “Inferno X” attack with Oricorio ex’s “エキサイトターボ” Ability and the Trainer ひふきやろう to help prepare the attack. That puts Oricorio ex alongside Charizard in both the featured battle theme and the SAR lineup. For players who enjoy discovering how a set’s featured cards work together, it’s another reason to take a closer look.
