Pokémon TCG Pocket's Deluxe Pack Mega Closes B Series on September 30

Pokémon TCG Pocket's B Series era concludes with the Deluxe Pack Mega expansion, launching September 30 at 1 AM UTC. The release marks the end of a monthly set schedule that began with Mega Rising in October 2025, introducing Mega Evolution to the mobile card game.

The Deluxe Pack Mega follows the same structure as last year's Deluxe Pack ex, which closed the A Series. Each four-card pack guarantees one Pokémon ex card and pulls from the full roster of B Series sets, from Mega Rising through Ruler of the Skies. Alongside re-released cards from those expansions, the set includes new illustration artwork and parallel foil versions.

Full art cards confirmed for the set include Mega Charizard X, Mega Altaria, Mega Lucario, Mega Gardevoir, and Mega Venusaur. Illustration cards feature Eevee, Meloetta, and Fidough, while foil parallels include Charmeleon, Chingling, and Roaring Moon.

The expansion will be available for a limited time, with the initial period ending October 29. It will return in future rotations, though players seeking specific cards may need patience given the limited window.

An app update will be required before players can access the new cards. Release times vary by region: evening for North America, early morning for Europe, and late morning for Asia and Australia.

The Deluxe Pack Mega's arrival precedes the shift to the C Series next month, which is expected to introduce significant gameplay changes. The new dual-type card system has already been announced for October 2026.
