Pokémon TCG: Black & White—Dragon Vault Pokémon Set stands out as a special expansion in the Black & White Series, bringing a focused celebration of draconic power to your collection. Released in English on October 5, 2012 (following its Japanese debut as the Dragon Selection subset on January 27, 2012), the Dragon Vault Pokémon Set was the very first BW‑Era subset to land in Japan. Unlike standard expansions sold in booster boxes, Dragon Vault packs were exclusively available in specially designed Dragon Vault Blisters, each containing five Holofoil cards that guarantee a dazzling pull every time.
At the heart of the Dragon Vault Pokémon Set are the mighty Dragon‑type Pokémon, showcased in stunning Holofoil glory. From classic favorites like Dragonite and Altaria to surprise inclusions such as Shelgon and Kingdra, every pack delivers a shard of Unova’s sky‑soaring heritage. Because there’s no dedicated Dragon Energy, these cards lean on clever Energy mixes—adding an extra layer of deck‑building strategy for competitive and casual players alike. And with each booster fixed to five guaranteed Holofoil cards, collectors could chase a complete Dragon‑themed lineup without the guesswork of rarity tables.
The Dragon Vault Pokémon Set is packed with delightful details that keep fans coming back. Being released in 2012, it perfectly coincided with the Year of the Dragon in the Chinese zodiac—an auspicious nod that underscored the expansion’s theme. The English blisters even included exclusive promo codes for the online TCG, letting you battle with your new dragon hoard digitally. And because Dragon Vault was a blister‑only release, its packs quickly became coveted items at game stores, sparking memorable “hunt the last pack” moments among dedicated collectors. Whether you opened them for powerful Dragon‑type staples or cherished the unique packaging, the Dragon Vault Pokémon Set remains a standout chapter in the Black & White saga.
