Mega Evolution series

Perfect Order

UK release

Perfect Order is the third Mega Evolution main set, built around Mega Zygarde ex from Pokémon Legends: Z-A. It came out worldwide, UK included, on 27 March 2026 and has 124 cards (88 plus 36 secret rares). There is a 36-pack booster box, and the top card is the Mega Hyper Rare Mega Zygarde ex 124/088.

Perfect Order UK release date

Perfect Order launched worldwide on 27 March 2026, so the UK got it on the same day as everywhere else. Build & Battle Boxes came first, at prerelease events in participating stores on the weekends of 14–15 and 21–22 March 2026. Upcoming sets are on our release calendar.

What is in the set

Mega Zygarde ex is the headline, alongside Mega Starmie ex, Mega Clefable ex and Mega Skarmory ex. Pokémon's announcement lists 4 Mega Evolution Pokémon ex, 9 Pokémon ex and more than 25 Trainer cards, and describes the set as "over 120 cards". The full English list runs to 124. Rarity symbols are explained in our rarities guide.

Perfect Order booster box, ETB and other products

Perfect Order follows the standard main-set line-up: 10-card booster packs (each with a Basic Energy and a TCG Live code card), Elite Trainer Boxes, Booster Bundles, blisters, Build & Battle Boxes and 36-pack and 18-pack booster displays. One checklane blister was a Target (US) exclusive and was not a UK product. If you are new to the product names, see Pokémon TCG product types explained.

Perfect Order chase cards

Six Special Illustration Rares and one Mega Hyper Rare make up the top tier. As with other sets in the series, the headline Mega appears at both levels, so Zygarde collectors need two cards.
