Chaos Rising Revealed as Fourth Mega Evolution Set, Releases May 22

Chaos Rising has been officially revealed as the fourth English Mega Evolution expansion, releasing May 22 with prereleases running May 9-17. The set is headlined by Mega Greninja ex and features over 120 cards, including Mega Pyroar ex, Mega Floette ex, and Mega Dragalge ex. It draws primarily from Japan's Ninja Spinner set, which releases March 13.

The set continues a trend of smaller English releases, with an 86-card base set plus secret rares. Ongoing global TCG shortages may be driving Creatures to design fewer new cards per set in order to free up printing capacity. The ETB promo will be Fennekin's Illustration Rare, pulled from the main set, as Froakie's IR forms a connected artwork with Frogadier and Mega Greninja ex that would have been left incomplete.
