Pokemon TCG Leak Hints at New “Pitch Black” Set Featuring Mega Darkrai ex

[ed]

Fans of the Pokémon Trading Card Game may have another exciting release on the horizon. A new leak suggests that an upcoming English set titled Pitch Black is in development, potentially launching in summer 2026. The set is rumored to be based on the Japanese expansion Abyss Eye, which was recently announced and is already generating buzz.

The standout card from the set is expected to be Mega Darkrai ex, a powerful addition that could shake up competitive play. Its Night Raid attack deals solid damage and can double under common conditions, making it highly flexible. Meanwhile, its Abyss Eye ability introduces a potential instant knockout mechanic, adding serious late-game threat potential.

If the leak proves accurate, Pitch Black would continue the current Mega Evolution trend seen in recent sets like Perfect Order and Chaos Rising. With Darkrai’s popularity and strong card mechanics, this set could quickly become a must-have for collectors and competitive players alike.
