Information
Dark Explorers is the name given to the fifth main expansion of the Black & White Series of the Pokémon Trading Card Game. In Japan, it was released as Dark Rush, the fourth expansion in the Pokémon Card Game BW Era. It is based on Pokémon Black and White, featuring Generation V Pokémon. The English expansion was released on May 9, 2012, while the Japanese expansion was released on December 16, 2011.
Starting from this expansion, Secret cards could feature Item cards. These cards have a Holofoil Poké Ball in the middle of the attack box.
Vanillite and Vanillish, and Ducklett and Swanna were misplaced in the card order. Vanillite (#582) and Vanillish (#583) were placed before Ducklett (#580) and Swanna (#581).
Dark Explorers was the first English expansion whose Prerelease promo was a Black Star Promo, specifically the BW Black Star Promos, instead of a card from the expansion.
This expansion's logo greatly resembles the symbol for the Darkness type, embedded into a hexagon instead of a circle.
