The Pokémon TCG is taking a bold new step with the launch of Mega Brave and Mega Symphonia, releasing August 1st, 2025 in Japan. These two sister sets not only mark the start of the brand-new MEGA Block, but they also bring back a long-lost mechanic fans have been begging for: Mega Evolutions.
Get ready for powerful new ex cards, stunning alt arts, and the biggest nostalgic punch Pokémon has delivered in years.
🔥 Set Highlights: Mega Power Reignites
Both sets contain 63 cards (excluding Secret Rares) and will feature iconic Pokémon in their Mega forms, including:
- Mega Lucario ex (from Mega Brave)
- Mega Gardevoir ex (from Mega Symphonia)
Expect dazzling alt arts, full art trainers, and even some teasing of what’s to come in the upcoming MEGA block sets for late 2025.
📦 What’s Inside?

Each booster box contains:
- 30 packs per box
- 5 cards per pack
