Delta Reign ME06: ETB October Price Check and the PC ETB Sellout
By Dexhaul Team · October 2, 2026
The ME06 Delta Reign retail ETB is currently at $104.95 on the low end, the Pokémon Center exclusive version has moved entirely to secondary sellers at $287, and November 6 is five weeks away.
Both prices have shifted since the set's first pre-order wave in September. Knowing where they are right now matters whether you are still deciding on the retail box or already wrote off the PC version as too expensive.
What the Retail ETB Costs Right Now
The standard ME06 Delta Reign Elite Trainer Box carries 9 booster packs, an exclusive full-art card, and the standard ETB accessories: coin, damage counters, card sleeves, and dividers. Current retail pre-order listings range from $104.95 at the floor to $142 from Australian-based sellers.
The $104.95 floor from itzdemzTCG is a true USD listing, not a Canadian-dollar price. That matters because several of the apparent cheapest results in this range are CAD-denominated and land closer to $80 USD at current exchange.
Most USD sellers cluster at $109.95 to $109.99. The $5 spread between the floor and the cluster is small enough that shipping costs will often close it. Check the seller's actual shipping rates before assuming the lowest listed price is the cheapest delivered.
One listing combines the ETB with an acrylic display case at $158 from Gemzy. That is the retail ETB with an added case, not a separate product. If display storage matters, it is worth comparing that bundle against buying the ETB and a standalone case separately.
The PC ETB Has Moved to Secondary Only
The Pokémon Center exclusive version of the Delta Reign ETB is no longer available at its original Pokémon Center listing price.
In late September, reseller pre-orders for the PC ETB were running in the $261 range. That first wave has since cleared.
On October 2, the floor in the marketplace sits at $287, with at least one seller listing at $493. Both are secondary-market pre-orders, not direct Pokémon Center stock.
Pokémon TCG: Delta Reign Pokémon Center Elite Trainer Box With Acrylic Case
$287.00 USD
The PC ETB for ME06 is the first Mega Evolution PC exclusive to ship with a bundled acrylic display case. ME01 through ME05 PC exclusives did not include one. That case is a meaningful part of what you are paying for, but it is still an acrylic box: the card pool and pull rates inside the 9 packs are identical to the retail version.
The gap between PC ETB ($287) and retail ETB ($104.95) is $182. Breaking that down: 9 packs of identical product, a PC-exclusive box design, and a bundled acrylic case. Whether that combination is worth $182 over the retail floor is a personal decision, but the math is what it is.
Mega Rayquaza ex and Why Delta Reign Is a Different Kind of Set
Delta Reign's primary pull target is Mega Rayquaza ex.
Rayquaza's Mega form last headlined a major English TCG expansion during the XY era. Delta Reign marks the first dedicated Mega Rayquaza ex release in the modern ME series, which has otherwise focused on Charizard, Lucario, Greninja, Gardevoir, and Johto characters across its earlier sets. Rayquaza brings a distinct collector profile: it has the deepest vintage card history of any Dragon-type in the franchise, and the Mega form resonates across both competitive TCG history and the fan-favorite Sky High Collection era.
The set also confirms Mega Golurk ex and Mega Malamar ex, both of which are TCG-only designs. Neither Golurk nor Malamar received a canonical Mega Evolution in any mainline game, making their ME06 cards the only official Mega artwork for either Pokémon. That is the same structural position Mega Hawlucha and Mega Dragalge occupy in earlier ME sets, and both have maintained secondary demand from collectors who want TCG-original designs.
What ME Series Pricing History Suggests About November 6
This is the part of the pre-order window where looking backward is more useful than guessing forward.
ME04 Chaos Rising launched in 2025 and currently sits at $69.99 from Double Infinity Gaming, well below its launch-day ETB price. ME05 Pitch Black, the most recent set before Delta Reign, holds at $74.95 at MHDEALSPLUS: that price has not moved significantly since launch.
The ME series ETB does not behave like SV-era ETBs that regularly see post-launch spikes. It settles and holds.
ME06 retail ETBs are pre-ordering at $104.95 to $109.99. That range is already close to where ME05 launched and where ME04 eventually landed after post-launch compression. The expected post-launch discount for the retail ETB is small, not the 30-40% drops seen in some other product categories.
One pattern worth noting: ME05 Booster Bundles settled at $39.99 to $49.95 post-launch. ME06 Booster Bundles are currently pre-ordering at $49.95 to $61.
That means the bundle is pre-ordering at ME05's post-launch pricing. If bundles are the preferred format, the current window is close to the floor on recent historical trends.
The October 2 Summary
Retail ETB: $104.95 to $142, floor at $104.95 in USD. No ETB-equivalent product has appeared below this in the current pre-order window.
PC ETB: $287 to $493, secondary-market only. The original Pokémon Center allocation sold through. The $182 gap over the retail floor is real, and it covers premium packaging and an acrylic case, not additional packs.
ME series history points to modest post-launch ETB price movement. Waiting for a sharp launch-day discount carries low probability based on the two preceding sets. The pre-order price you see today is close to where the retail ETB will likely stabilize at and after launch.
