Delta Reign booster products and the 30th Celebration collections both go on sale that day.
Quick Answer: Pokémon TCG: Mega Evolution—Delta Reign releases on November 6, 2026, with over 135 cards per Pokémon.com and Mega Rayquaza ex as the headline card. Three 30th Celebration collections release the same day. The Mega Greninja ex League Battle Deck follows on November 13, 2026.
Mega Rayquaza ex is the set's headline card. The official set page lists three more Mega Evolution Pokémon ex alongside it :
- Mega Rayquaza ex: the headline Legendary Pokémon
- Mega Golurk ex
- Mega Malamar ex
- Mega Golisopod ex
Pokémon.com says the set has more than 35 Pokémon and Trainer cards with special illustrations and more than 20 Trainer cards . Mashable also reports over 35 special illustration Trainer and Pokémon cards and says they are aimed at art collectors (source: Mashable, 2026-11) . Pokémon.com has also published a card preview feature showing cards from the expansion.
Delta Reign booster displays, Elite Trainer Boxes, Build & Battle Boxes and Booster Bundles all release on Nov. 6, according to Pokemonblog.com . Prerelease events reportedly began on Oct. 24, but this is unconfirmed: the official set page does not list a prerelease start date. Players should check with their local game store for prerelease dates.
How many cards are in Delta Reign, and why do sources differ?
Pokémon.com's official set page says Mega Evolution—Delta Reign has "over 135 cards" . The fan-run card database TCG Watchtower lists 141 English cards . The two numbers do not contradict each other: 141 is "over 135." Pokémon has not published an exact final count, so we credit each number to the place that gives it.
Count differences like this usually come down to how a source tallies the set. An official "over" figure is a minimum. Databases list every card they have catalogued one by one, so their totals can include secret rares or other extra cards above the printed set number. Until Pokémon publishes a full card list, the "over 135" figure is the safe one to use.
| Source | Type | Card count given |
|---|---|---|
| Pokémon.com set page | Official | Over 135 cards |
| TCG Watchtower | Third-party database | 141 English cards |
The set page also gives the counts of two card types:
- More than 35 Pokémon and Trainer cards with special illustrations
- More than 20 Trainer cards
Mashable also reports over 35 special illustration Trainer and Pokémon cards and calls them a draw for art collectors . The "aimed at art collectors" angle is Mashable's description. Pokémon itself does not say it.
To see individual cards before opening packs, Pokémon.com has a separate card-preview feature for Delta Reign . As of November 4, 2026, Pokémon has published no pull rates for the special illustration cards.
What Delta Reign products release on Nov 6 and what is inside each?
Five Delta Reign products release on November 6, 2026: the Booster Display Box, the Elite Trainer Box, the Pokémon Center Elite Trainer Box, the Build & Battle Box and the Booster Bundle. Pokémon's November release guide lists the contents of each one . They differ mainly in pack count, promo cards and play accessories.
| Product | Booster packs | Promo cards | Other contents |
|---|---|---|---|
| Booster Display Box | 36 | None | Each pack: 10 cards + 1 Basic Energy |
| Elite Trainer Box | 9 | 1 full-art foil Kyogre | 65 sleeves, 40 Energy cards, damage-counter dice, coin-flip die, plastic coin, player's guide |
| Pokémon Center Elite Trainer Box | 11 | 2 full-art Kyogre (one with Pokémon Center logo) | Sleeves, Energy cards, dice, coin, player's guide |
| Build & Battle Box | 4 | 1 of 4 foil promos | 40-card ready-to-play deck, Pokémon TCG Live code card |
| Booster Bundle | 6 | None | Packs only |
Source for the table: Pokémon.com November 2026 release guide , matched against PTCG News .
The Booster Display Box holds 36 booster packs, and each pack has 10 cards plus 1 Basic Energy . Mashable describes a box of 36 packs "totaling 360 cards" with no promos or accessories . That matches the display box. The 360 total is Mashable's count, and it leaves out the Basic Energy cards.
The two Elite Trainer Boxes both come with Kyogre promos, but their contents are different:
- Elite Trainer Box: 9 packs and 1 full-art foil Kyogre promo, plus 65 sleeves and 40 Energy cards .
- Pokémon Center Elite Trainer Box: 11 packs and 2 full-art Kyogre promos, one of them stamped with a Pokémon Center logo .
- Shared accessories: both include damage-counter dice, a coin-flip die, a plastic coin and a player's guide .
The Build & Battle Box is for players who want to start playing right away. It has a 40-card ready-to-play deck, 1 of 4 foil promo cards and 4 booster packs . It also has a Pokémon TCG Live code card for the digital client. Pokémon's guide does not say which of the four promos is in a given box.
The Booster Bundle is the simplest product: 6 booster packs and nothing else listed . The UK edition of the release guide gives the same Delta Reign lineup for November 6 .
What are the three 30th Celebration collections releasing Nov 6?
On November 6, 2026, Pokémon releases three 30th Celebration collections alongside Delta Reign: the Ditto Premium Collection, the Figure Collection and the Ultra-Premium Collection . They mark the franchise's 30th anniversary. Each one contains a different number of 30th Celebration booster packs, from 5 up to 30.
The official Pokémon release guide lists the contents of each collection as follows:
- 30th Celebration Ditto Premium Collection: 1 Ditto promo card, an acrylic display and 8 booster packs .
- 30th Celebration Figure Collection: 1 foil promo card, 1 oversize card, 1 sculpted figure (Mewtwo or Mew) and 5 booster packs .
- 30th Celebration Ultra-Premium Collection: 30 booster packs in total, including a special etched card pack, plus a playmat, card sleeves, a deck box and other accessories .
The Ditto Premium Collection has the second-highest pack count of the three. Mashable sees it as the lower-cost way into the anniversary product line. That is the outlet's own description. Pokémon does not describe it that way.
"Packing eight 30th Celebration booster packs, the Ditto Premium Collection is an easy, budget-friendly way to rip anniversary packs without shelling out for an Ultra-Premium Collection." — Mashable
Mashable also mentions a box that "bundles five booster packs of the milestone 30th Celebration expansion" . That matches the 5-pack count Pokémon gives for the Figure Collection. Pokémon's guide does not say how the Mewtwo and Mew figures are split between boxes, or whether buyers can choose one.
Some details about the Ultra-Premium Collection come only from secondary outlets. According to Pokemonblog, the box includes "three etched cards from the nostalgic Classic Collection" . Pokémon's own guide calls it a special etched card pack and does not give a card count.
PTCG News links the Ultra-Premium Collection to Pikachu ex with Espeon ex or Umbreon ex . Mashable describes a product sold in Day or Night versions, starring Pikachu with Espeon ex or Umbreon ex. Per Mashable, it includes a custom playmat, a matching deck box, standard sleeves, an acrylic display and metal dice .
Pokémon's release guide does not use the Day and Night names. It also does not list which promo cards come with each version. Buyers looking for one specific version should check the product listing at their retailer before ordering.
What is the Mega Greninja ex League Battle Deck and when does it release?
The Mega Greninja ex League Battle Deck is a ready-to-play 60-card Pokémon TCG deck built for competitive play. It releases on Nov. 13, 2026, one week after the Nov. 6 launch of Delta Reign and the 30th Celebration collections. It is the second and final release date in the official November lineup .
A League Battle Deck comes as a complete, legal-size deck, so players can bring it to a league night or local event without building a list from singles first. Pokemonblog.com also lists the Nov. 13 date and the 60-card deck size . Mashable calls it a tournament-ready deck for players who want to start competitive play right away.
The Pokémon.com November release guide lists these contents :
- 1 ready-to-play 60-card deck built around Mega Greninja ex
- 6 damage-counter dice
- 1 coin-flip die
- 2 coin condition markers
- 1 deck box
- 1 strategy sheet
The deck has no booster packs. The Delta Reign products and the 30th Celebration collections cover pack opening. This product is for people who want to play on the day they buy it. The release guide does not publish the full 60-card list. Players who want to know the exact card counts before buying can check the guide's product entry and any decklists posted after Nov. 13.
How much do Delta Reign products cost and where can you buy them?
As of Nov. 4, 2026, Pokémon has not published a price for any Mega Evolution—Delta Reign or 30th Celebration product. The official November release guide lists release dates and box contents but no MSRP . The UK edition of the guide also gives no prices .
Some retailers have posted their own prices for items such as the Elite Trainer Box. Pokémon has not confirmed these as official prices, so treat each one as that store's own price.
The guide does list where one product is sold. Two versions of the Elite Trainer Box are coming:
- Elite Trainer Box: 9 booster packs and 1 full-art foil Kyogre promo, for general retail .
- Pokémon Center Elite Trainer Box: 11 booster packs and 2 full-art Kyogre promos, one with a Pokémon Center logo, sold through Pokémon Center .
The booster display, Build & Battle Box, Booster Bundle and the three 30th Celebration collections all release on Nov. 6, 2026. The Mega Greninja ex League Battle Deck follows on Nov. 13, 2026 . The official Delta Reign set page is the place to check for any later price or stock notes from Pokémon.
In short, there is no official MSRP yet, and store prices are each retailer's own figure. The Pokémon Center Elite Trainer Box is the one version with extra packs and promos. Check prices at your store on or after Nov. 6.
