M1L Chase Cards: Mega Brave Rarity Guide and PSA 10 Listings

Updated November 10, 2026

What is M1L (Mega Brave)?

M1L is the code you see on Japanese Mega Brave cards, and Mega Brave is one of two expansion packs in the MEGA series, released together with Mega Symphonia. The table below sets out the names and basics, all taken from the official Pokémon Card Game page for the set and the official card pages.

The cards covered in this article carry numbers above 063, such as 064, 078, 088 and 092, so the number on the card is larger than the 063 printed after the slash. If you want graded copies, the shop lists a PSA 10 MEGA Lucario ex SAR [M1L 088/063] and the other cards in the table further down.

If you want the whole set in one place, see our Mega Brave (M1L) card list and the broader Mega Brave guide. This article covers the cards collectors chase and how to buy them from Tokyo.

What are the M1L chase cards?

The M1L chase cards covered here are the higher-rarity cards: MEGA Lucario ex in MUR, SR and SAR, the MEGA Absol ex and MEGA Venusaur ex cards, the Lillie’s Determination SAR, and the Pokémon AR cards. Their card numbers (064 and above) are larger than the 063 after the slash.

The list comes from the rarity shown on official card pages and on our own product pages. We do not quote pull rates, and we do not forecast prices. Each card below is named because it has an official card page or a PSA 10 listing in our shop.

The table is not a full card list. It is the shortlist this article works from. Mega Brave also has other Mega ex cards and other Trainers, covered in the next section, and the full set is in our card list article.

Which Mega ex cards are in Mega Brave?

Mega Brave has five Mega ex cards: MEGA Lucario ex, MEGA Venusaur ex, MEGA Absol ex, MEGA Mawile ex and MEGA Camerupt ex. The official set page lists them, and it lists the five Mega ex cards of Mega Symphonia as a separate group.

Mega ex cards follow one rule that matters in play: when a Mega ex is knocked out, the opponent takes 3 Prize cards. Of the five Mega Brave cards, three appear in our PSA 10 listings in a high rarity: Lucario, Absol and Venusaur. Mawile and Camerupt are on the official list, but we have no PSA 10 listing for them to link.

The official page also names two Trainers in Mega Brave: Lillie’s Determination and Night Stretcher, and it says Night Stretcher is an SR. In our shop, Lillie’s Determination appears as a SAR numbered 091/063.

One more detail from the official page affects how you read the AR and SAR cards. It says that three cards placed side by side form one full illustration. If you collect for artwork, check the official card pages for the card you want before assuming which cards pair up.

How do the three MEGA Lucario ex versions differ?

MEGA Lucario ex in M1L comes in MUR 092/063, SR 078/063 and SAR 088/063, and all three share 340 HP. The differences are the rarity, the card number and the illustrator, all shown on the official card pages.

Sources: MUR 092/063, SR 078/063, SAR 088/063.

The MUR page also gives the card text: a Stage 1 with two attacks, one for 130 damage and one for 270 damage that cannot be used on your next turn. That is the playable side of the card.

Which version to pick depends on what you want. If you want the artwork by 5ban Graphics, that is the MUR. If you want the artwork by Atsushi Furusawa, that is the SAR, and it is the version we list as a PSA 10. If you want the artwork by takuyoa, that is the SR. If you want a single Mega Brave card to start with, our recommendation is the MEGA Lucario ex, because it is the Mega ex with three versions documented on official card pages, so you can compare illustrators before you choose. For a deeper look at the MUR, read our PSA 10 MEGA Lucario ex MUR guide.

The SAR 088/063 is listed as a PSA 10 MEGA Lucario ex SAR [M1L 088/063]. Our product description for graded cards notes that the PSA case may have minor scratches or marks on its surface, so judge the slab from the product photo.

Which M1L chase cards can you buy as PSA 10?

We list PSA 10 copies of MEGA Lucario ex SAR, MEGA Absol ex SAR and SR, MEGA Venusaur ex SAR, Lillie’s Determination SAR, and the AR cards Riolu, Exeggutor, Bulbasaur and Spearow. Our product pages describe PSA 10 as the highest grade Professional Sports Authenticator certifies, given to cards in gem mint condition.

We have not put prices in this article, because the live price sits on each product page. Open the listing to see the current price. Bulbasaur and Spearow each appear on more than one product page; the table links one of them.

Our shipping policy explains that PSA graded cards may also be offered through other sales channels, so an item shown online may already be sold before our team locks the allocation for your order. Once your payment has cleared, we secure the PSA graded card matching your order, even if additional sourcing is needed, and dispatch may take longer in that case. We provide status updates whenever the schedule changes. That text comes from the shipping policy.

Every PSA 10 listing carries the same note: stock levels can change, and in some cases your order may take a little longer to ship. Read that line on the product page before you order.

What should you know about the AR cards in M1L?

The AR cards in our M1L listings are Bulbasaur 064, Exeggutor 066, Riolu 068 and Spearow 074, all Pokémon cards numbered above 063. They suit collectors who want a graded M1L card of a specific Pokémon rather than a Mega ex.

The official page says AR and SAR cards are designed so that three cards side by side form a full illustration. We do not say which AR cards pair up, because the sources we use do not state it. We also do not claim that any AR card will rise or hold in value; each simply has a PSA 10 listing.

Our recommendation: pick an AR card because you like the Pokémon and the artwork. That is a collecting choice, not a statement about price.

How do you avoid mixing up MEGA Lucario ex from other sets?

Check the set mark and the number. An M1L MEGA Lucario ex shows M1L and a number such as 078/063, 088/063 or 092/063. Other MEGA Lucario cards exist in other sets, and they are not Mega Brave cards.

The M2a card shares the 092 prefix with the M1L MUR, the same 340 HP and the same illustrator, 5ban Graphics, which makes it easy to confuse. Look at the number after the slash: 092/193 is M2a, 092/063 is M1L. The XY3 card is an older XY card with 220 HP and an attack called Rising Fist for 140, and it is not a MEGA series card.

The same habit helps with every listing. Our product names include the full code, for example “[M1L 088/063]”, so you can match the number on the page to the number on the official card search before you buy.

Should you buy M1L chase cards as PSA 10 singles or open a carton?

Buy a PSA 10 single if you want a specific card, and buy the carton if you want to open packs. A single gives you the exact card and number; sealed product gives you randomly packed 5-card packs, and the official information does not promise any particular card.

We list the M1L-Mega Brave Japanese Pokémon Booster Box carton. It is one full carton (case) of 12 Japanese booster boxes, shipped as the carton itself, not as 12 individual boxes. It ships from Tokyo by FedEx with a tracking number. The listing also mentions a single box product, M1L-Mega Brave Japanese Pokemon Booster Box.

The official page lists the Premium Trainer Box MEGA at ¥6,350 including tax, containing 10 Mega Brave packs and 10 Mega Symphonia packs (20 in total). It has 172 cards of 51 types: 13 Pokémon, 59 Trainers, 4 Special Energy and 96 Basic Energy, with some Scarlet & Violet series cards reprinted. It also includes a card box, a Pokémon coin, an acrylic damage counter set, a damage counter case and premium markers for poison and burn. That is the Japanese retail product from the official page and not one of our listings.

How does shipping from Tokyo work for M1L cards?

Orders ship from Tokyo by FedEx with a tracking number. The two services are FedEx International Connect Plus (usually 3-7 business days) and FedEx International Priority (usually 2-5 business days), both estimated transit times after dispatch, not guarantees.

Handling comes first: most orders are processed and shipped within 5 business days after PayPal or Wise payment has cleared, and that is also an estimate. Business days exclude weekends and Japanese national holidays. Shipping cost is calculated automatically at checkout from your delivery address. There is no minimum order amount or quantity, so you can buy a single PSA 10 card.

The delivery dates on the website, at checkout or in carrier tools are estimates. They do not include handling time, supplier allocation delays, quality inspection holds, weekends, Japanese national holidays, customs processing, carrier congestion, weather or destination-country conditions. FedEx cannot deliver to P.O. Boxes, so you need to give a physical address.

After the order is handed to FedEx, delivery timing is controlled by the carrier and destination-country authorities. Customs inspections and import procedures can delay delivery, and the policy says such transit delays do not by themselves create a right to cancel or refund after dispatch. Once the order is dispatched, you can see the tracking number and the carrier’s latest delivery estimate in your account or shipping confirmation email. All of this is in the shipping policy.

Which payment methods can you use?

You can pay by Wise bank transfer, PayPal, or credit and debit cards through PayPal, and all payments are made in Japanese yen. The payment methods page sets out the terms.

If you want to avoid the 5% fee, pay by Wise. Without a screenshot, an unpaid Wise order is cancelled automatically after 12 hours (3 hours if it contains a pre-order item), so pay promptly. If you choose the screenshot option, which needs an account, you upload the screenshot within 5 days of placing the order, and your order price is held for a total of 10 days.

If you pay by SWIFT, the page says a receiving fee of JPY 611 is deducted before the funds reach us, so you should add JPY 611 to the order total. It also recommends the OUR charge option so that correspondent bank fees are covered on your side. If the amount we receive is short, order processing is paused until the shortfall is paid and confirmed.

Card payments open in PayPal’s own secure window, and we never see your card number. A PayPal account is usually not required for a card payment, though PayPal may occasionally ask you to sign in or create one. Your card issuer may apply 3-D Secure authentication. Differences between the amount charged and your statement, from exchange rates or conversion fees, are set by your payment provider.

PayPal Pay Later is offered and operated by PayPal. The options the page lists, each interest-free, depend on the buyer’s country:

In each case the first payment is taken at checkout. In other countries PayPal may show a different option on different terms, and the terms in PayPal’s own window are the ones that apply.

What if the address is wrong or dispatch is delayed?

While an order is paid and its shipment has not yet been scheduled, you can update the shipping address yourself from My Account > Orders. The destination country cannot be changed, and the carrier, shipping method and FedEx service level stay as selected at checkout.

If shipping to the new address costs more, you are asked to pay the difference before dispatch, and the order is held until it is settled. If it costs less, the shipping charge is not recalculated and no refund is made. After the shipment is scheduled, the self-service change is closed, and only a minor correction that does not affect any shipping condition may be considered, requested through the Contact Form. Please verify your address before you place the order.

On delays, the policy says stock levels for sealed Japanese trading card products fluctuate and that dispatch may take longer than the standard handling time. If dispatch is delayed, we contact you by email as soon as practical with a revised estimate. For significant dispatch delays before handoff to FedEx, we may offer the option to wait or to cancel the order with a full refund.

What should you check before buying an M1L chase card?

Check four things: the full code and number, the rarity, the grade, and the shipping note on the product page. Those four checks tell you whether the listing matches the card you meant to buy.

First, the code and number. Look for M1L and the number in the listing title, then compare it with the official card search. Second, the rarity: MUR, SAR, SR and AR are different labels, and the same Pokémon can appear with more than one, as MEGA Absol ex does at SR 079/063 and SAR 089/063. Third, the grade: our listings are PSA 10 slabs, and the product text says the case may have minor scratches or marks. Fourth, the delivery note: every listing says stock levels can change and some orders take a little longer to ship.

A practical order for a first purchase: start with the single card you want most, such as the MEGA Lucario ex SAR or MEGA Absol ex SAR. Choose FedEx International Priority if transit time after dispatch matters to you, and pay by Wise if you want to skip the 5% fee. If you are building a set rather than chasing one card, start from the M1L card list and work down.
