Pokémon TCG Pocket Deluxe Pack: Mega – A Guaranteed 4-Diamond Card in Every Pack

> Quick answer: Deluxe Pack: Mega (B4b) arrives in Pokémon TCG Pocket on Sept 29 evening PDT (Sept 30 in some regions). Each pack holds 4 cards, with 1 guaranteed ♦♦♦♦ rarity or higher, and it's only available through Oct 28 evening PDT.

Every single pack in this Pokémon TCG Pocket drop has a guaranteed 4-diamond card. If you missed your Mega chase cards the first time around, this is your second chance. But it won't last long.

Here's everything you need to know about Deluxe Pack: Mega, from the card pool to the events running alongside it.

What is Deluxe Pack: Mega in Pokémon TCG Pocket?

Deluxe Pack: Mega, set code B4b, is a limited-time pack in Pokémon TCG Pocket. It brings back cards from earlier Mega-era expansions in one place.

It's also a milestone. Deluxe Pack: Mega is the pack that closes out the B series. That makes it the last stop for the Mega sets in this run.

When does Deluxe Pack: Mega release?

The pack launches on Sept 29 evening PDT. Depending on where you live, that means Sept 30 in some regions.

If you're outside North America, convert from PDT to your local time zone so you know exactly when to open the app.

How long is Deluxe Pack: Mega available?

Not long. The pack is available for a limited time, through Oct 28 evening PDT.

After that, it's gone. If your Mega collection has gaps, Oct 28 is your deadline. Plan your pack openings for the weeks between launch and close.

What's guaranteed in every Deluxe Pack: Mega?

This is the big one. Every pack contains 4 cards, and 1 of those cards is guaranteed to be ♦♦♦♦ rarity or higher.

That's no small thing. With regular packs, you can open a lot of them before hitting a high-rarity card. Here, every single pack gives you at least one.

For collectors chasing specific 4-diamond cards, that guarantee makes this pack well worth your attention.

Which cards are in the Deluxe Pack: Mega card pool?

The card pool spans Mega Rising through Ruler of the Skies. That covers the Mega-era expansions of the B series.

The key detail: every ♦♦♦♦ card from those previous packs is in the pool. So if you missed a 4-diamond card from any of those sets, it can show up here.

That's why this pack matters for completionists. You don't need to hunt across several older packs. One pack pulls from all of them.

Are there new illustrations or foil versions?

Yes. Some cards return with new illustrations. Others come with glossy parallel foil designs.

So even if you already own a card, a new-art or parallel foil version may give you a reason to keep opening. Collectors who like variants will have plenty to chase.

What events are running with Deluxe Pack: Mega?

Two events line up with this release.

Parallel Foil Mass Outbreak event

The Parallel Foil Mass Outbreak event runs from late September to early October. It overlaps with the pack's launch window, so keep an eye on it in-game in the first weeks.

Mega Garchomp ex Drop Event

In mid-to-late October, the Mega Garchomp ex Drop Event arrives. It awards B Series promo packs vol. 13.

This event lands close to the pack's Oct 28 end date. That makes it a good last push before Deluxe Pack: Mega leaves.

Should you open Deluxe Pack: Mega?

If you collect Mega cards, the answer is easy. A guaranteed ♦♦♦♦-or-better card in every pack, pulled from a pool that includes every 4-diamond card from Mega Rising through Ruler of the Skies, is a strong setup.

Add the new illustrations and parallel foils, and there's something here for both new players and longtime collectors.

The main thing is timing. The pack runs from Sept 29 evening PDT to Oct 28 evening PDT. It's also the final pack of the B series. Once it's gone, it's gone.

How to plan your pulls

A few simple steps:

• Check your collection first. Note which ♦♦♦♦ cards from Mega Rising through Ruler of the Skies you're missing.
• Watch the events. The Parallel Foil Mass Outbreak runs late September to early October. The Mega Garchomp ex Drop Event comes in mid-to-late October.
• Mark Oct 28. Don't leave it to the last day, especially if your local time zone is far from PDT.
