Are you looking for your Mega Evolution fix? Phantasmal Flames is out today, but I’m still chasing down Mega Lucario SIR goodness, and Amazon has made it a little easier to do so. Right now, Mega Evolution Elite Trainer boxes are at market value compared to TCGPlayer.
In the X and Y era of the Pokémon TCG, the Mega Evolution mechanic was ridiculous. Each EX card at that time was a basic Pokemon, so there is no need for evolution, just Mega Evolution and Spirit Link cards will help you play them quickly. This broke the TCG for many, with strategy and deckbuilding coming down to who could buy the best Mega Evolution beatdown cards.
Where to Buy Pokemon Cards in 2025 – Avoid Overpaying or Missing Out on New Sets
With the exception of Pokémon like Absol, who will have a basic EX card anyway, Mega Evolution requires the Normal and Uncommon evolution lines to play Mega Evolved Pokémon this time, skipping the standard EX stage and going straight into Mega Evolution. It flows very well, bringing hard hitting moves without turning the gameplay into a one-sided debate.
The Gardevoir variant features the promo illustration rare Alakazam, the Mega Lucario ETB features the promo illustration rare Riolu with themed card sleeves, dice, card dividers, eight booster packs, and a clear box to store your bulk cards.
