Pokémon TCG – Ascended Heroes Preorders

Preorders for Pokémon Trading Card Game: Ascended Heroes are officially live on TCGplayer, revealing just how hot this Mega Evolution set already is With most major retailers sold out, the resale market is now setting the tone. The Elite Trainer Box (MSRP $49.99) is currently hovering around $118, reflecting a ~135% markup high, but still lower than last year’s Phantasmal Flames pre-release spike. Release dates are staggered, with select products dropping Jan 30, Feb 20, and April 24, 2026, meaning supply pressure may ease over time. However, the Pokémon Center Exclusive ETB is already commanding a massive ~$357 market price no surprise given its long-term collectability. Bottom line: Ascended Heroes is expensive, but compared to past Mega Evolution launches, prices (for now) are slightly more restrained. Whether you buy now or wait may depend on how much Mega hype you’re willing to pay for.
