The Pokémon TCG Pocket Deluxe Pack: Mega, a limited-time booster set featuring 429 cards, officially launches on September 29, 2026, and will remain available through October 28, 2026, according to the official Pokémon Company. This set marks the conclusion of the B Series, offering players a chance to collect reprints of cards from past expansions, including four-diamond rarity cards from Mega Rising to Ruler of the Skies.

The set will feature reprints from previous B Series sets, along with updated artwork, parallel foil designs, and each pack will contain a guaranteed Pokémon ex.

Game Updates and Features
Alongside the card release, Pokémon TCG Pocket will roll out several in-game updates. A community decks feature will allow players to view decks that others have made public, providing an opportunity to create similar decks or just get some inspiration from. Current rental decks will be removed; however, players will be able to access rental decks with cards from the latest booster packs to use indefinitely in both solo and versus battles. The Step-up Battle system will be reworked into a new solo battle system where difficulty levels will increases as you progress through the stages, while features like themed deck lists and deck missions will be discontinued.
