Transcendent Heroes: The Mega Evolution Series Bonus Set
Transcendent Heroes is the special intermediate set in the Mega Evolution series of the Pokémon Trading Card Game, released on January 30, 2026 by The Pokémon Company. Identified by the series code ME2.5, this "bonus" set falls between ME02 Phantasmal Flames and ME03 Perfect Balance in the Mega Evolution arc timeline. It serves both as a narrative break and a showcase for new, never-before-seen Mega Evolutions, with distribution staggered over three months until the end of April 2026 to spread out the release of specialized products.

Mega Dragonite: The flagship card and identity of the set
The set features Mega Dragonite-ex, the newest Mega Evolution of the first-generation Mythical Dragon-type Pokémon. This card embodies the visual identity of the expansion and is one of the most anticipated chase ex cards of the year. Alongside Mega Dragonite, the expansion contains a rich selection of other Mega Evolutions and over 290 cards in total, making it the largest Mega Evolution set to date.

Mega Attack Rare: A distinctive rarity with attack names in Japanese katakana
Transcendent Heroes continues the introduction of the Mega Attack Rare rarity, which first appeared in Spooky Flames (ME02) and is now featured in this expansion. This rarity is immediately recognizable by a strong visual and cultural detail: the attack names on the cards in question are written in Japanese katakana on both the French and international versions, even outside the Japanese version of the set. This stylistic choice, specific to the Mega Evolution series, brings the game's aesthetic closer to its Japanese roots and is a distinctive collector's item for fans of Japanese Pokémon and kanji typography.

The Mega Dragonite Elite Trainer Box
The ETB Transcendent Heroes Elite Trainer Box, released on February 20, 2026, puts Mega Dragonite at the center of its visual identity with a design dedicated to the Dragon-type Pokémon. The box includes 9 Transcendent Heroes booster packs, 65 Mega Dragonite-themed card sleeves, 40 Energy cards, a dedicated player's guide, damage counter dice, a competition-legal coin-flip die, a plastic coin, and a collector's box with 6 dividers.

The Mega-Lucario and Mega-Gardevoir Premium Poster Collection Boxes
Two Premium Poster Collection Boxes were released on March 20, 2026, each centered on one of the iconic Mega Evolutions from the set. The Mega Lucario Premium Poster Set showcases the Sinnoh Aura Mega Evolution, one of the most iconic Mega Evolutions since Pokémon X and Y. The Mega Gardevoir Premium Poster Set celebrates the Psychic-Fairy Mega Evolution from the third generation with a large-format poster and dedicated promo cards. For collectors who want both, the 2-Pack Premium Poster Boxes bundles both items in a single purchase.

The First Partners Deluxe Pin Collection
Also released on March 20, 2026, the First Partners Deluxe Pin Collection pays tribute to the three starter Pokémon from the first generations with exclusive pins and dedicated promo cards. It's a collector's item designed for longtime fans who want a visual and tactile experience that goes beyond standard cards.

The Three EX Boxes of the Mega-Evolved Johto Starters

This trio pays homage to the three starter Pokémon from Pokémon Gold, Silver, and Crystal, released in 1999 in Japan and 2001 in France.
