Toxtricity · Phantasmal Flames, what to know.
About the Toxtricity card
Toxtricity sits at #68 in Phantasmal Flames, released in January 2026. Phantasmal Flames is part of the modern English Pokémon TCG era and uses the standard contemporary card frame and rarity tiers. Illustration by DOM. In the games, Toxtricity evolves from Toxel, which makes it a late-stage card in the line.
The flavor text on the card reads: "As it scatters toxic sweat and emits electricity, a melody that sounds like it came from a guitar reverberates through the surrounding area." Pokédex entries from this era are short and often quirky, written by the original Japanese localization team for a specific stat-block layout that no longer exists in modern cards.
Print variants and how to spot them
Phantasmal Flames shipped in Holofoil, Reverse Holo, Mega ex, Full Art, and Special Illustration prints. Mega ex cards are the headline rarity tier of the Mega Evolution era and use the new mega-treatment artwork distinct from standard ex cards.
Grading and condition
For graded buyers, modern Rares grade easily but the secondary market for graded modern non-holo Rares is thin. The math rarely justifies submission unless the card is a tournament staple or the Pokémon has independent collector traction.
If you are buying this card
For raw purchases of this card, verify centering by eye, edge whitening on all four sides, and surface scratches under angled light. Modern Rares are inexpensive in raw and graded condition; submission math rarely works unless the card has independent collector demand.
