Every Pokémon TCG Worlds 2026 Promo Card and What Collectors Should Expect to Pay

The 2026 Pokémon World Championships land in San Francisco from August 28 to 30, and for the first time the tournament shares a weekend with PokémonXP, an official fan convention built around panels, signings, and exhibitors rather than competitive play.
Four promo cards are attached to the event, and they sit at very different points on the availability curve.
One is genuinely difficult to land and another one will be sitting in bulk boxes by October. Here is what each card is, how to get it, and what the comparable print from last year actually sold for.
Pokémon TCG Worlds 2026 Promo Cards
Paradise Resort MEP 092 (Mega Evolution Promos, Promo)
Paradise Resort has been the competitor welcome kit staple since 2023, when it took over from Champions Festival, and Naoki Saito has illustrated every print in the run.
The 2026 artwork puts Pikachu and Psyduck on Lombard Street, with Sylveon, Gimmighoul, Sudowoodo, Klawf, Fidough, Charjabug, Spheal, and Archaludon filling out the scene.
Copies go into competitor welcome kits, and players who earn 500 Championship Points at Worlds side events receive one as well. Stamped versions for the top 32 through champion finishers exist in far smaller numbers.
Competitors receive a copy in every language the game prints, which reached 13 with last year’s print, so non-English versions arrive on the market in volume.
Completed sales for the 2025 print show English copies changes hands anywhere from $125 to $400, with a median near $190. The three most recent English sales were $300, $302, and $400.
Spanish, Italian, German, Thai, and Korean copies settle around $30 to $50.
Several trackers blend all 13 languages into a single average, which is why you will see figures quoted near $115 that no English seller is going to honor.

Pikachu MEP 093 (Mega Evolution Promos, Promo)
The annual Worlds Pikachu is the most accessible one. DOM returns as illustrator after handling the 2025 print, and the artwork follows the established formula of pairing the host city with the previous year’s winning deck.
Here that means a San Francisco skyline behind Gardevoir and a nod to Riley McKay’s Flutter Devo Gardevoir title run in Anaheim.
Getting one is straightforward. Play! Pokémon stores run 2026 Worlds Celebration tournaments from August 21 to 30, and participants receive a copy while supplies last. Select retailers are carrying it as well.
The 2025 equivalent went out just as broadly and now trades between roughly $5 and $19 raw, with a median near $10 and about a copy moving a day. Enjoy this one rather than banking on it.

Pikachu MEP 093 WINNER Stamp (Mega Evolution Promos, Promo)
Winners of the Junior, Senior, and Masters divisions at each Worlds Celebration tournament receive a variant carrying the Play! Pokémon logo at the lower right of the artwork, where the World Championships logo sits on the standard print.
That is one copy per age division per tournament, against a participation print that every entrant takes home.
New this year, winning players also take home Worlds Celebration accessories. TCG winners get a deck box and sleeves, while VGC and Pokémon GO winners receive a screen cleaner.
It is the first time league level winners have been given exclusive accessories alongside the card.

Rayquaza 153/217 (Ascended Heroes, Rare)
Every badged attendee at Worlds and PokémonXP receives an Ascended Heroes Rayquaza carrying a PXP stamp in the corner. This is the first time general attendees have been handed a promo card simply for showing up.
The underlying card is unremarkable. It is a 120 HP Basic Dragon illustrated by nagimiso, carrying Breakthrough Assault and Dragon Claw, and unstamped copies of the base print sit in the bulk bin under a dollar.
The stamp is carrying the value, which makes badge counts the entire supply question.
Attendance will run far above the competitor pool receiving Paradise Resort and far below the nationwide league network handing out Pikachu, placing this squarely in the middle of the group.
