Pokemon Mega Forces Tin Promos vs Japanese Mega ex Prints

What the Official Page Lists for the Mega Forces Tin

The official page is titled Pokemon TCG: Mega Forces Tin and states: « Launch: August 28, 2026 ». Its description reads: « Some of the most powerful Mega Evolution Pokemon ex ever are here to show off their strength! With this tin, you can choose the majestic wings of Mega Dragonite ex, the terrifying gaze of Mega Darkrai ex, or the lightning-fast reflexes of Mega Zeraora ex, each with powerful attacks that can overwhelm your opponent with huge damage. You also get four Pokemon Trading Card Game booster packs with even more Pokemon inside. »

The wording presents the promo as a choice among three Pokemon. The page names no Pokemon Center line for this tin.

Bulbapedia’s merchandise page (as of October 2, 2026) describes the Mega Forces Tins as another set of tins featuring Mega-Evolved Pokemon, released on August 28, 2026, each holding a promo of one of the three Pokemon and a selection of 4 booster packs. It lists the promo cards as Mega Zeraora ex (MEP Promo 089), Mega Darkrai ex (MEP Promo 090) and Mega Dragonite ex (MEP Promo 091). The official page agrees on the date and the pack count and adds the code card.

Mega Zeraora ex: Abyss Eye Prints and the M-P 164 Promo

The official Japanese page for Abyss Eye (M5) gives its release as May 22, 2026, with a price of ¥200 per pack, tax included, and 5 cards in each pack. The official database lists 118 cards for the set with a printed denominator of /081. It prints four rows for メガゼラオラex: three in M5 and one promo.

All four database pages print the same card text (rendering). One attack, サンダーフィスト, costs one Lightning Energy and does 60 damage times the number of Lightning Energy attached to the Pokemon. The other, ゼプトターン, costs three Lightning Energy, does 150 damage and switches the Pokemon with a Benched Pokemon. Each card has Weakness Fighting ×2, a retreat cost of 1 and the Mega Evolution ex rule that gives the opponent 3 Prize cards when it is Knocked Out (rendering). The database page for M-P 164 prints the same text and does not print the tournament logo or a product name.

Limitless TCG pairs MEP 089 with the Japanese Mega Promotional Cards entry numbered 164, and Bulbapedia’s Zeraora card page gives the same pairing, MEP Black Star Promos 089 with M-P Promotional cards 164/M-P. According to Bulbapedia, the Japanese print was given as a prize to competitors with 4 or more total wins during Champions League 2027 events and carries the Pokemon Card Game Championships Series 2027 logo. That distribution detail is Bulbapedia’s alone, so it is reported and not official.

SNKRDUNK titles its M-P 164 row 「勝利賞」 from the promotional cards 「チャンピオンズリーグ2027 横浜」 (victory prize, Champions League 2027 Yokohama; rendering), wording that belongs to the listing and not to the official database. English Pitch Black has three Zeraora prints per Limitless TCG: 27 (Double Rare, 5ban Graphics), 98 (Ultra Rare, 5ban Graphics) and 114 (Special Art Rare, GIDORA). For the rest of the set, see our Zeraora cards guide and the Pitch Black chase cards ranking.

Mega Dragonite ex: The Four MEGA Dream ex Prints

MEGA Dream ex (M2a) is the Japanese set that carries Mega Dragonite ex. The official Japanese page gives its release as November 28, 2025, with a price of ¥550 per pack, tax included, and 10 cards in each pack. The official database lists 250 cards for the set against a printed denominator of /193, and the page names メガカイリューex among its featured cards.

The database prints one card text for all four (rendering). The Ability スカイキャリー can be used once during your turn and switches your Active Pokemon with a Benched Pokemon. The attack リューノグライド costs one Water and two Lightning Energy, does 330 damage and discards two Energy attached to the Pokemon. The card is a Stage 2 with 370 HP, no Weakness and a retreat cost of 2, and it follows the same 3-Prize rule for Mega Evolution ex.

No Japanese Dragonite print is credited to 5ban Graphics: the regular and Mega hyper rare prints are credited to aky CG Works and the Mega attack rare and special illustration rare prints to DOM, which is also how Bulbapedia’s Ascended Heroes 152 page captions them. That page adds that the tin’s promo is an alternate artwork credited to 5ban Graphics. Bulbapedia says Ascended Heroes includes cards from the Japanese MEGA Dream ex subset, and the English expansion’s official page gives January 30, 2026 as its release date. More on the set sits in our M2a MEGA Dream ex complete guide and the Mega Dragonite cards guide.

SNKRDUNK Lowest Asks for the Dragonite, Darkrai and Zeraora Prints

These are asking prices only, shown on SNKRDUNK product pages on October 2, 2026, and they are not sales or valuations. SNKRDUNK shows a minimum display price of ¥1,000, so a figure of exactly ¥1,000 marks that floor and is not a verified ask. PSA 10 figures come from the per-condition grid on each product page, and a dash means the grid shows no listing.

As of October 2, 2026, the box asks are ¥12,500 (~$81) for the M2a MEGA Dream ex box (¥10,799, ~$70, for the no-shrink version) and ¥7,799 (~$51) for the M5 Abyss Eye box (¥6,700, ~$44, for the no-shrink version), each as the lowest ask on SNKRDUNK, October 2, 2026. The Zeraora promo row carries a lone ask, which says little about how the promo is priced.

PSA 10 Back Orders for Dragonite and Darkrai

The Mega Dragonite ex SAR is offered as a PSA 10 back order at ¥30,965 (~$201) — sourced to order; the product page shows the current terms. For the MUR the PSA 10 back order is at ¥54,637 (~$355), and for the MA it is at ¥5,100 (~$33). On the Darkrai side, the MUR is offered as a PSA 10 back order at ¥59,874 (~$389) and the SAR at ¥30,328 (~$197). The route is described in our PSA 10 back orders guide. The SAR also has a separate PSA 10 listing for a graded copy, ¥31,779 (~$206).

PSA 10 designates Gem Mint condition under PSA’s published grading standards. The Mega Zeraora ex prints have no PSA 10 listing, and neither do the Dragonite RR 126/193 and the Darkrai RR 046/081 and SR 099/081; sourcing requests for those numbers go through Commande rapide. Other graded Japanese cards are on the PSA 10 card list.
