How can Home Depot NOT have Type X gypsum board?

To have a one-hour fire rated wall, you need to use one layer of Type X gypsum board on each side of a stud wall. For two hours, you use two boards on each side. for 90 minutes you use one board on one side and two boards on the other. But it needs to have "Type X" printed on the paper.

I don't think there is "fireproof" sheet rock, just improved fire code versions.
Unless you are looking for an exotic product like GeoBond.
