Chase cards
The headline Pokémon is Mega Rayquaza ex, which appears three ways: a Double Rare (084/103), a Special Illustration Rare (138/103), and the set’s Mega Hyper Rare (141). Mega Golisopod, Mega Golurk and Mega Malamar feature on other pack artwork. Card prices move fast in a set’s first weeks. Check a live price guide before buying or selling singles.
Is a Delta Reign booster box worth opening?
It’s too early to calculate a reliable expected value: pull-rate data is thin and singles prices haven’t settled. For reference, 36 packs at the reported $4.49 MSRP is about $161.64 of packs, though market prices for boxes often differ from MSRP. We’ll add an EV estimate once both pull rates and prices stabilize.
Can you open Delta Reign packs online?
Online pack-opening sites stock different products: slab-pack sites reveal already-graded cards from mixed sets rather than sealed Delta Reign boosters. We haven’t verified which sites currently offer Delta Reign specifically, so check each site’s pack listings. Compare options on our Pokémon pack opening sites page.
