The Delta Reign release date is Friday 6 November 2026: The Pokémon Company International says the Pokémon Trading Card Game expansion Mega Evolution: Delta Reign reaches participating retailers around the world from that day (press release, 20 August 2026). Prerelease events under the Play! Pokémon programme start on Saturday 24 October 2026, and the set arrives in Pokémon TCG Live a day early, on Thursday 5 November.
For Singapore, the official Pokémon Asia Trainers website has announced a Build & Battle Box Pre-Release Event running from late October until Thursday 5 November 2026, but it has not yet published a separate Asia English release date. Here is what is confirmed so far, from the dates to the headline Mega Rayquaza ex and the new Legendary Stadiums.
Delta Reign release date and key dates
These are the dates announced so far, as of 19 October 2026.
| What | Date | Official page |
|---|---|---|
| Prerelease events (Play! Pokémon, participating independent retailers) | From Sat 24 Oct 2026 | Press release |
| Build & Battle Box Pre-Release Event in Singapore | Late Oct 2026 to Thu 5 Nov 2026 | Pokémon Asia Trainers website |

| Worldwide release at participating retailers | Fri 6 Nov 2026 | pokemon.com set page |
None of these pages gives a launch time for Singapore, so we won’t guess one. The 6 November date is The Pokémon Company International’s worldwide date; we’ll update this post if the Asia site lists a different date for the Asia English release.

Cards previewed on 5 October
The official sneak peek on pokemon.com of 5 October 2026 showed five more cards:
- Hypno: its Mind Ruler attack does 20 damage for each card in your opponent’s hand.
- Kecleon: its Colorful Whip attack lets you reveal Pokémon from your hand and does 30 damage for each revealed Pokémon with a different type.
- Enamorus: an illustration rare.
- Legendary Pyroduct: a two-card Stadium (more on these below).

What is a Legendary Stadium?
A Legendary Stadium is a new feature in Delta Reign. According to The Pokémon Company International, it is made by combining two Stadium cards, which are played as a pair and form one extended artwork when placed side by side. Booster packs that contain a Legendary Stadium include both halves needed to form it. The set has six of these Stadium cards, making three Legendary Stadiums.
The first one shown is Legendary Pyroduct, which the sneak peek calls one of the first two-card Stadium cards in the Pokémon TCG. While it is in play, both players’ Evolution Pokémon have no Abilities.
Where Delta Reign fits
Delta Reign is part of the Mega Evolution Series, and the set page marks it as legal for the Standard format. The Pokémon Company International says it comes in booster packs, Elite Trainer Boxes and various collections.
