Mega Evolution is back on the Pokémon TCG. On 22 May 2026, Chaos Rising drops, and it’'s the biggest set in a while built around Mega Evolution Pokémon-ex.
Pokémon’'s line on it: “the city’'s excitement turns to chaos.” In practice, players will be fighting over the chase cards.
Cards to watch
Four Mega-ex are already on the marketing reel:
- Mega Floette-ex is the one stirring trouble in the streets.
- Mega Greninja-ex brings the crew along, including Mega Heliolisk-ex and Mega Dragalge-ex.
- On the promo side, expect Phantump, Ampharos, Noivern, and Whiscash.
If you collect Mega, this is probably the densest 2026 set on the mechanic.
The products
Four launch formats, from entry to investment:
- Build & Battle Box: a 40-card preconstructed deck, one of four shiny promo variants, and 4 boosters. The pre-release entry format.
- Booster Bundle: 6 boosters. Compact box for a quick open.
- Booster Display: 36 boosters. The breaker format.
- Elite Trainer Box: 9 boosters, sleeves, energy cards, dice, and a Pokémon TCG Live code.
Every booster also ships with 1 basic energy and 1 TCG Live code card.
Pre-release: from 9 May
Build & Battle Boxes hit Play! Pokémon Stores starting 9 May. Each player walks away with one of the four shiny promos.
