Pokemon Mega Evolution Booster Bundle vs Japanese M1S and M1L Boxes

What the Official Sources Say About the Booster Bundle

The tcg.pokemon.com page titled “Pokémon TCG: Mega Evolution Expansion Overview” lists four products under the expansion: the Elite Trainer Box, the Booster Bundle, the Booster Display and the Build & Battle Box, each with a “FIND A RETAILER” link. That bundle line is the official description of the product on the page. The Pokemon.com 2025 product gallery lists an Elite Trainer Box and a Pokémon Center Elite Trainer Box for Mega Evolution and has no Booster Bundle entry for the set.

Bulbapedia’s merchandise page for the series words the bundle this way: “The Mega Evolution Booster Bundle released together with the Mega Evolution expansion on September 26, 2025. Each box included six Mega Evolution booster packs.” That is a reported statement, while the expansion date is official, and Bulbapedia’s entry lists no promotional cards for the bundle.

The Elite Trainer Box is a different product with its own official page, which prints “Launch: September 26, 2025”; it is compared with the same two Japanese boxes in the Mega Evolution ETB comparison. For other bundles set against Japanese boxes, the Booster Bundle vs Japanese box comparison covers several sets.

The Japanese Boxes: Mega Brave (M1L) and Mega Symphonia (M1S)

The official Japanese page for both expansions prints the same text for each: a Pokémon Card Game MEGA expansion pack priced at ¥180 (~$1) including tax, five cards per pack, cards inserted at random, release date Friday, August 1, 2025. The two sets are sold as separate boxes, M1L Mega Brave and M1S Mega Symphonia, and the page does not state how many packs a box holds.

The English bundle is one product that draws on one expansion, while the Japanese side is two sealed boxes with their own card pools. The Mega Brave vs Mega Symphonia box guide compares the pair, the M1S complete guide and M1L complete guide cover each set, and the M1S card list and M1L card list pages list the Japanese cards one by one.

Mega Gardevoir ex: Japanese Prints and Graded Listings

The official database lists six prints of メガサーナイトex: four in Mega Symphonia (M1S) and two in M2a. Limitless TCG’s page for the M1S 042 print lists the English prints as MEP 32, MEG 60, MEG 159, MEG 178, MEG 187 and ASC 89, with the Japanese prints M1S 78, 87 and 92 and M2a 71 and 226 alongside; Limitless’s listing for those English numbers carries no illustrator credits.

The card text is the same on all six: a Stage 2 Pokémon with 360 HP that evolves from ラルトス through キルリア, Darkness weakness ×2, Fighting resistance of −30, and a retreat cost of 2. The attack あふれるねがい costs one Psychic Energy and attaches a basic Psychic Energy from the deck to each Benched Pokémon (rendering). The attack メガシンフォニア also costs one Psychic Energy and deals 50 damage times the number of Psychic Energy attached to all of the player’s Pokémon (rendering). That attack shares its name with the set.

Mega Gardevoir ex RR 042/063

The RR 042/063 is the main-set M1S print and is credited to takuyoa, who also holds the SR 078/063 and the M2a RR 071/193. SNKRDUNK’s raw listing for the RR prints the ¥1,000~ display floor, and its PSA 10 row has no listing. The SR is the second takuyoa credit, with a PSA 10 ask of ¥4,499 (~$29) as of October 2, 2026.

Mega Gardevoir ex SAR 087/063

The SAR is credited to Raita Kazama. The lowest PSA 10 ask on SNKRDUNK was ¥18,000 (~$117) on October 2, 2026, and the matching listing is offered as a PSA 10 back order at ¥18,666 (~$121).

Mega Gardevoir ex MUR 092/063

The MUR carries the 5ban Graphics credit, the same name as on the Lucario MUR. Its lowest PSA 10 ask on SNKRDUNK was ¥122,900 (~$798) on October 2, 2026, and the matching listing is offered as a PSA 10 back order at ¥127,497 (~$828). The MA 226/193 from M2a, credited to Saboteri, is offered as a PSA 10 back order at ¥4,057 (~$26). The Mega Symphonia best cards article covers the set’s other chase cards.

Dated Asking Prices and Store Listings

Store listing prices and SNKRDUNK lowest asks both carry the date October 2, 2026, and they describe different products. An ask is the price a seller is asking, not a completed sale. The English bundle is not sold in the store.

SNKRDUNK also showed lowest asks of ¥6,100 (~$40) for the No Shrink M1S box, ¥7,999 (~$52) for the M1L box and ¥6,890 (~$45) for the No Shrink M1L box on October 2, 2026. Damaged Box products are priced as their own listings, and the figures say nothing about the condition of any individual box beyond the product title.

Graded Lucario and Gardevoir listings

The back-order process is described in the PSA 10 back order guide.
