Chaos Rising Booster Bundle: Pack Count and Contents (2026)
By Dexhaul Team · October 23, 2026 · 6 min read
Six packs. No promo. No accessories.
The Chaos Rising Booster Bundle contains six ME04 booster packs from the Mega Evolution Chaos Rising set, which released on May 22, 2026. The Pokémon Company does not publish an MSRP for this product. Independent sellers list sealed bundles from $29.99 observed on October 23, 2026.
This page covers exactly what is inside the bundle, how its price per pack compares to every other ME04 sealed format, and which buyers should choose it over the Elite Trainer Box or the Booster Display Box.

What's inside the Chaos Rising Booster Bundle
The bundle is a lean, pack-only product. Every card you open comes from the 086-card ME04 base set plus special-numbered variants that extend beyond that limit. There is no exclusive promo card and no accessories of any kind.
| Item | Quantity | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| ME04 Chaos Rising booster packs | 6 | 10 cards + 1 Basic Energy each |
| Foil promo card | 0 | Not included |
| Card sleeves | 0 | Not included |
| Dice, coin, or deck accessories | 0 | Not included |
| Total cards (all packs) | 66 | 60 drawn from the set + 6 Basic Energy |
The featured Pokémon ex in this set are Mega Greninja ex, Mega Floette ex, Mega Pyroar ex, and Mega Dragalge ex. Any of these can appear as a pull across the six packs, including their higher-rarity variants such as Illustration Rares and Special Illustration Rares.
The Mega Greninja ex full-art foil promo does not live in the bundle. It is exclusive to the Chaos Rising Elite Trainer Box. If that promo is your target, the Chaos Rising ETB guide covers the full difference.
Price per pack across ME04 formats
The Booster Bundle sits between the 3-Pack Blister and the Booster Display Box on per-pack cost. It is not the cheapest per pack (the 36-pack Display Box wins on pure math), but it is the cheapest per pack you can buy in a single, manageable unit from most retailers.
| Format | Packs | Observed low (Oct 23, 2026) | Per pack | Promo card |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Single booster pack | 1 | $6.00 | $6.00 | No |
| 3-Pack Blister | 3 | $17.95 | ~$5.98 | Foil promo |
| Booster Bundle | 6 | $29.99 | ~$5.00 | No |
| Elite Trainer Box | 9 | $69.99 | ~$7.78 | Mega Greninja ex promo |
| Booster Display Box | 36 | $169.99 | ~$4.72 | No |
The ETB's higher per-pack cost reflects the bundled accessories and the exclusive promo. Subtract realistic accessory value from the $69.99 price and the effective per-pack cost drops closer to $6.40, which is still above the Bundle's floor.
For collectors who already own sleeves and dice from ME03 Pitch Black or an earlier set, the bundle removes the overhead and delivers packs at the best single-unit price point in the ME04 lineup. That is its core value proposition.
How the Booster Bundle compares to other ME04 formats
Three scenarios where the bundle wins, and three where it does not.
Bundle beats the 3-Pack Blister on pack volume
The 3-Pack Blister includes a foil promo card, which the bundle lacks. If you want six packs and do not need the promo, buying two blisters costs roughly $35.90 at current floors, and you end up with a promo you may not want.
The bundle gets you the same six packs for $29.99. The blister wins only if you specifically want that format's promo card.
Bundle beats the Elite Trainer Box for accessory-equipped collectors
The Chaos Rising ETB includes 65 sleeves, 45 Energy cards, dice, a coin, and the Mega Greninja ex promo. Collectors building their first ME04 kit get more complete value from the ETB.
But if you already have sleeves and dice from a previous Mega Evolution set, the ETB's $69.99 floor means you are paying for accessories you do not need. The bundle's six packs at $29.99 serve that buyer cleanly.
Booster Display Box beats the bundle on pure per-pack cost
The Chaos Rising Booster Display Box contains 36 packs at roughly $4.72 per pack at the $169.99 floor. It is cheaper per pack.
The trade-off is the quantity commitment: 36 packs is roughly $170 minimum, and some sellers require full-box orders. The bundle is the right call when you want more than three packs without committing to a full box.
Release date and set overview
Chaos Rising (ME04) is the fourth expansion in the Mega Evolution TCG series. Its English release date was confirmed on the official Pokémon May 2026 product calendar.
| Milestone | Date | Source |
|---|---|---|
| JP M4 release | March 13, 2026 | Pokémon Card Game Japan |
| EN ME04 release | May 22, 2026 | Official Pokémon product calendar |
| In stock at independent retailers | May 22, 2026 onward | Current seller listings |
The 70-day gap between the Japanese M4 release and the English ME04 launch was the longest in the Mega Evolution series to that point. ME05 Pitch Black (July 17, 2026) shortened that window to 56 days. The next English set, Delta Reign ME06, releases November 6, 2026.
The set spans 086 numbered cards with special variants numbered above that limit. The Mega Greninja ex Special Illustration Rare carries the number 116/086. No single bundle or booster box can contain every variant in the set.
Who should buy the Chaos Rising Booster Bundle
Buy it if you already own sleeves and dice from a prior Mega Evolution set and want the best per-pack price without committing to a full 36-pack box. At $29.99 to $37.95 depending on the seller, it is the most cost-efficient single-unit purchase in the ME04 lineup for pure pack-opening.
Skip it if you want the exclusive Mega Greninja ex promo card: that card does not appear in the bundle or in any booster pack. The Elite Trainer Box is your only retail path to that promo.
As a gift for Q4
The Booster Bundle is a practical gift at a manageable price. Six packs give a recipient enough pulls to feel the full range of ME04 rarities without the $69.99 ETB commitment. It pairs well with a sleeve pack if the recipient does not already own one.
For a more complete gift kit that includes accessories and the exclusive promo, the ETB is the better pick. The Booster Bundle suits gift-givers who know the recipient already has the basics covered. Browse sealed ME04 products at the Chaos Rising buyers guide for the full format breakdown.
