Aside from full alternate art Mega Charizard EX, Mega Gardevoir and Lucario EX were also showcased, while an upcoming Mega Dragonite EX was teased. They are a part of an additional rarity called Mega Attack Rare. These aren’t just standard holographics or full arts. These cards are going to be next-level, with intricate designs and artwork that’ll make jaws drop. It’s clear the TCG is upping the ante in a big way.


So, what does this mean for the game? For starters, it’s going to make collecting even more exciting. For those who love hunting for ultra-rare cards, the tier is about to become the new obsession. And for competitive players, these cards could shake up the meta in a big way. Mega Charizard EX alone is going to be a game-changer, and when combined with the potential of these new cards, like the Oricorio Ex, the possibilities are endless. And rest ensure, there are regular versions of the Mega Charizard Ex and others, and they look stunning too.



Now, some might wonder if this is just a cash grab. And sure, the TCG has been known to release some pretty pricey cards. But this is Pokémon we’re talking about. They’ve been killing it for years, and this move feels like doubling down on what makes the TCG so special: the art, the rarity, and the thrill of the hunt. Whether a collector, a competitive player, or just a fan of the franchise, this is a big deal. If you are interested in more Pokémon stories, be sure to check out our TCG section.
