Ascended Heroes? Oh man, this set’s the glow-up we didn’t know we needed—it’s like Mega Evolution got supercharged with 2026 flair.
Dropped January thirtieth, over two-ninety cards, secret rares everywhere… it’s massive. The artwork? Chef’s kiss. That cover art alone—Charizard, Pikachu, Mewtwo all ascending in neon swirls—feels like a rave in the sky. And then Mega Dragonite ex hits. Three-seventy HP, golden foil wings like it’s flying through a sunrise. Sky Transport swaps your Active spot mid-turn—game-changer. Ryuno Glide drops three-thirty after ditching two Energy. Weakness to Fairy stings, but who cares? This thing’s meta poison. Special Illustration Rare version’s basically art on steroids—shimmering, heroic, worth chasing hard. Prices already north of two-fifty ungraded; collectors are feral.
Mega Rayquaza ex isn’t slacking either—spiraling dragon energy, Dragon Burst scales with discards. The SIR? Pure cosmic fire. Even the trainers pop—Iris’s Fighting Spirit draws like crazy, Surfer floods your bench. Pull rates are kinder than last set, but those god packs? Lottery vibes.
Gameplay’s fresh: Mega rules simplified, no turn-end nonsense—just explosive attacks and bench swaps. Competitive? Solid in Dragon/Flying decks. Collecting? Addictive.
Nine out of ten—best Mega revival since XY. If Mega Evolution was gold, Ascended Heroes is platinum.

First ASC product we were able to get/rip and it didn’t disappoint! Pulled our first SIR, IR, mega attack rare, and an EX from the single ETB we got at Best Buy! Can’t beat true MSRP pricing either.

Amazing set really wish our Best Buy would get more stock of all the great cards that we rarely see here they say we’re small store yeah there’s lines of 60+ people standing outside on a drop day. It’s just really disappointing when you don’t get anything when you walk through the door

I picked up the Ascended Heroes Elite Trainer Box in-store, and the overall experience was great. The boxes were in excellent condition, the packaging looked clean, and everything felt well cared for. It was easy to find, the checkout was smooth, and the product itself delivered exactly what I was hoping for. A solid in‑store pickup experience.

i love pokemon so this was an amazing pickup. the item itself is great and comes with an amazing promo. anything else you get from the packs is an extra plus. The process of buying from best buy though was easy and quick. employees did an amazing job organizing this release

My sister and I were so excited to get the chance to get these! We love the packaging of this set and had a great time opening them together. We love all the accessories they come with too, we loved it!

Best Buy had great line control and limits on this item during opening day. I didn’t pull anything great but happy I didn’t pay an insane markup on the secondary market. I’ll never buy from scalpers.

I bought this box on launch day and it was a great buy at MSRP. I wouldn't buy this online unless it was in the $60 dollar range or lower. Anything over $75 is wild to me

Thank you Best Buy @ The Forum! Because of limits and amazing staff/management I was able to get some Pokemon cards. Product was in perfect condition as expected from Best Buy.

Best Buy Always has the best prices on Pokemon cards! Absolutely my first choice to purchase for MSRP! I got a gengar and a dragonite ex so I’m extremely happy!

ETBs are by far the best product bc it's everything anyone needs to play TCG all regulation accessories and the stack of booster packs is well worth the price
