Mega Venusaur ex Premium Collection

Mega Evolution and Phantasmal Flames are absolutely killing it in the latest era of Pokémon TCG, and my boy Mega Venusaur ex is getting the love it deserves with its own Premium Collection that's available to preorder on Amazon for $79.49. This is at market value vs. TCGplayer.

You'll get a mix of booster packs in this collection:

• 2 x Destined Rivals

• 4 x Journey Together

• 2 x Mega Evolution

With Mega Evolutions seemingly bringing back trainer Pokémon cards a la Destined Rivals and Journey Together, it's fitting to have these boosters with Mega Evolution.

Mega Venusaur ex has an ability called Solar Transfer that allows trainers to move grass type energy around your Pokémon in play, which means it will only take two turns to build up the 4 x grass energy cost for Jungle Dump. This does 240 damage and heals 30 from Mega Venusaur.

If you pair this with Meganium you can double your grass energy, which turns one grass energy into two with Meganium's Wild Growth ability. That means you can build up and perform Mega Venusaur's Jungle Dump ability in one turn.
