With the launch of the Mega Evolution era, collectors are hunting down some of the most stunning, high-rarity cards the Pokémon TCG has ever seen. This set introduces an incredible lineup of new rarity tiers, forcing collectors to hunt for not only for elusive Special Illustration Rares (SIR), but also the explosive new Mega Attack Rares (MAR), as well as the crown jewels of the set: Mega Hyper Rares (MHR).
But fair warning—these cards do not come easy. The pull rates for this new era are notoriously brutal. If you are hunting for a specific Mega Hyper Rare, you are looking at staggering odds of 1 in 1,080 packs. Even hitting a specific SIR will take you an average of 1,533 packs!
Whether you are cracking packs or hunting for singles on the secondary market, you need to know what the heavy hitters are. So here are the Top 15 chase cards from the Mega Evolution base set that every collector wants in their binder.
