The brand new Mega Evolution Pokémon TCG preorders are up at Best Buy today. See the links below to secure the various sets, including Elite Trainer Boxes, just below.
At the time of writing, only ETBs, Booster Boxes, and Booster Bundles are available to preorder, with single boosters, three-pack boosters, and collector tins still not available to buy.
With the upcoming release of Pokémon TCG: Mega Evolution on September 26, following Japan’s Mega Brave and Mega Symphonia on August 1, the return of Mega Evolution is now in sight.
Best Buy is also putting restrictions in place for those looking to preorder, so make sure to check the following on your Best Buy account, as well as every other retailer:
- Make sure you have an account set up and logged in.
- Confirm your location and address for store pickup or shipping.
- Add the item to your cart as soon as you can for account verification and inventory checks.
- Make sure to follow on-screen prompts and not refresh or close your browser window.
- Don't try and use multiple devices to secure stock, retailers usually track your IP Address (Sometimes bypassing VPNS).
- Complete the purchase as soon as possible when adding to basket.
With Pokémon Legends: Z-A on the horizon and new Mega cards like Mega Lucario ex and Mega Gardevoir ex already revealed, it’s clear the TCG is about to re-enter one of its most collectible formats ever.
Top Mega Evolution X-Y Era Cards To Buy Right Now
Collectors who were around during the XY era already know the visual firepower and competitive edge Mega cards brought to the game. But for new players or investors entering the space, now is the time to act.
Pre-release allocations for the new sets are expected to be limited, premium boxes are already creating hype in Japan, and classic Mega cards from Flashfire, Ancient Origins, and Phantom Forces are being swept off the market.
